I feel you will appreciate reading a bit of Kant's work, the critique of pure reason would a good start. In perpetual peace, he makes the argument that in order to achieve peace everyone should freely exercise their right to "public reason", aka their right as an individual to critique others (the state, organisations, or individuals).
Military spending is a self fullfiling prophesy. A country spends more because other countries are spending more. Recession kicks in and somehow the goverment has to justify its military spending when people are getting hungry, so it goes to war.
Europe was built on the promise of stopping war without military power, that's a step in the wrong direction.
Hey, I was fired last July and I went through the same process, I actually asked a similar question on Lemmy and the feedback I received helped a tonne in landing more interviews.
Here are the steps I believe helped me:
- Make sure your CV is machine parseable, search for open resume, upload your cv see what it detects. Ideally, generate your CV using that tool.
- Create your own portfolio website, here is mine for reference https://souperk.gr/ (I have a public repository, feel free to copy if CSS isn't your strong suite)
- Check that toggle on LinkedIn to signify you are actively searching atm (don't remember how, but you should see a ribbon on your avater if it's active)
For me, landing more interviews was the hard part. Once I got a few interviews going, landing an offer was easy.
I like Arc's user experience with vertical tabs. They are bigger, easier to organize and they are cleaner. Also, the sidebar toggle is hard to work with, ideally I would prefer the ability to toggle with a shortcut or reveal on hover.
Aside Arc, Zen browser has a good vertical tab experience.
Overall, I still main firefox for my personal browser, though it's UX is still lacking.
So you are basically building a classifier that tries to assert if a user will like a video. While many are against any kind of "algorithm" within the fediverse, I believe that it's a necessity. But, I think allowing users to tag content and then building classifiers that allow you to filter based on that would be a more aligned with the fediverse.
Anyway, cosine similarity has worked for a lot of things, so I think it's a solid foundation to get you started. Another thing you can try is using an embedding model, specifically a model that receives a segment of a video and yields a matrix with the property that similar input will result in outputs relatively close to each other (cosine or euclidean distance).
Another thing to consider is building a platform that will permanently store data. If you can come up with a set of endpoints, I can implement something in python to get ypu started. I don't have experience with video processing so I cannot help you with that, but the crud aspect is no biggie.
Been writing an article about dating while being AuDHD. While I am not going to pretend I am some guru that is going to turn your dating experience upside down, I have a few things that have worked for me:
- Be open about your neurodivergency. If a person is worth it, they will be interested to know more about it, try to understand and accommodate your needs, and be charmed by your quirks.
- Respect your RSD. If you feel like you are receiving negative feedback don't shutdown, instead ask for clarification. If you want to do something but are afraid how it will be perceived, ask them. Unsurprisingly, people tend to appreciate the check-ins, it is perceived as you being caring.
- Try pebbling. It is the act of sharing things that you think the other person would appreciate. Feel free to info dump, feel free to share relevant experiences.
- Be meta as fuck. Explain your thought process, why you are doing something, and that train of thought that led to you saying seemingly completely irrelevant. Allistic people don't understand neurodivergence, but the right people will make the effort.
- Be honest. Maybe you don't feel safe to expose your date to your fully unmasked self, and that's okay. BUT, honesty can go a long way. See something you like? Turn that into a compliment! Feeling insecure? Explain that and ask for validation! Something bothers you? Ask for the appropriate accommodations!
- Don't try to impress the other person. Instead give your date the chance to like the real you. It's much more sustainable in the long term, you will feel more free and safe in your relationship, and it's fucking good to be appreciated.
- Routinize flirting. The consistency feels great for the other person, everyone needs a confidence boost and a few words of affirmation.
