You're welcome, chat.

The real FOSS option is to make your resume in LaTeX.

Facts. Overleaf has great templates, don't be afraid to try it folks.

Make a program with RISC V assembly that shows your animated resume and ship it with your light powered business card.

Where did this extremely dumb habit come from where people refer to anyone online as “chat”?

This wasn’t a thing a couple of years ago. Is this just internet brain rot taking over?

[-] pebbles@sh.itjust.works 25 points 1 week ago

Its from watching streamers I imagine.

[-] whoisearth@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Chat is a bunch of idiots that's all I know

[-] HatchetHaro@pawb.social 10 points 1 week ago

i mean, "habit" is a weird word for it. i'd call it more of a trend. "brain rot" seems like an adequate description.

it comes from streamer culture where streamers would refer to their audience as "chat" because the chat box is the main way for viewers to interact with whoever they are watching.

[-] bzz@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

I guess memes are brain rot. This feels like a get off my lawn comment.

Just because it’s a relatively new meme/saying that derives from streamer culture, doesn’t make it brain rot.

It's also the most unbiased word for referring to a group in a gender neutral way I've seen lol most others have implications of status (gentlepersons, folks), are still technically gendered (guys, not to mention this implies relatively young people too), or overbroad (everybody is well, everybody. Chat implies you're addressing your community or a small group since they're the ones who would be talking to you).

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Folks or yall though. "That's all y'all" is delightful to say

[-] MHLoppy@fedia.io 2 points 1 week ago

Wait "folks" has a status implication? IS NO WORD SIMPLY UNPROBLEMATIC!? IS NOTHING SACRED FROM THIS LINGUISTIC HELL

[-] HatchetHaro@pawb.social 3 points 1 week ago

the way i see it, "folks" can refer to a more traditional group of people, most likely rural, and you wouldn't call nobles or people of other high status "folks".

but also i doubt people think it is problematic; it's just a quirk of the English language that "chat" emerged basically out of nowhere with the closest analogue being "audience".

But you'd call nobles or high status people "chat"?

[-] HatchetHaro@pawb.social 2 points 1 week ago

i'd call them "pricks" but you do you

[-] Chocobofangirl@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

I meant more that chat implies it could be literally anyone because it's anonymous. Like when the game's developer or some guy with 100k followers suddenly drops in to a little guy's stream. You wouldn't know unless they announced themselves lol

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Brainrot is commonly used as just a general term to refer to later genz or gen alpha humor I think

It's the sort of thing that every generation does to make their sense of humor sound unique and new

[-] PumaStoleMyBluff@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

It's how twitch streamers collectively address their viewers. It's basically just announcing you're going to have a soapbox moment

[-] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

More bullshit lingo to learn and use, to prove you're with it. It never ends, but sometimes it circles back around and rhymes.

I used to be with it...

The best-known CV format in Europe

The Europass CV is one of the best-known CV formats in Europe. (emphasis added)

Straight to lying clickbait, unbelievable. /s

[-] Trail@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

The best one is also one of the best, isn't it.

[-] MHLoppy@fedia.io 1 points 1 week ago

Yes but the reverse isn't true: one of the best is not necessarily the best. They start off with the better claim then water it down! Clearly the entire EU is just in it for the views and ad revenue!!

[-] Nikelui@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

I hate the Europass template, it looks so ugly. But nowadays no one even bothers to read the CV, they probably just feed it to some AI and ask to summarize it, so all my efforts to make it look pretty are wasted.

[-] MHLoppy@fedia.io 2 points 1 week ago

I thought some of the options looks "fine" aesthetically, but I think I've already been corrupted to prioritize machine-readability over ✨style✨, and that's already from pre-chatGPT days haha - you should see how ugly some of the templates I was given at uni were compared to this :P

[-] 13igTyme@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Small world. The example on the right uses Sarasota Florida. I used to live there.
