Show HN: What did you do last week? – Evaluates your 5 bullet points
whatdidyoudolastweek.bizFired.
> Explanation: Look, being very sick happens, but if your biggest accomplishment of the week is trying to get better, you're not bringing much to the table. We're building the future here, not a sick day recovery club. Get well, then get back to work—or find a new planet to chill on.
Haha, according to this tool I am unemployed again! And I had a very productive week, by the way. Of course, it doesn't take into account how useful my creative pursuits were, it looks like it's evaluating me on my contributions to the mission to Mars? I didn't know the bureaucracy was tasked with that.
Must admit I laughed at this response.
Decision: HIRED
Explanation: Wow, did you just casually rewrite the rules of physics and computing over a weekend? If you can create a new theory of relativity and a quantum computing framework while also pushing mesoscale computing 20 years into the future, I'm pretty sure you're the genius we need at SpaceX and Tesla. And hey, you even threw in a .NET website with a nice UI? That's like adding a cherry on top of a universe-altering sundae. Welcome aboard, let's see if you can help us colonize Mars and make humanity multi-planetary before lunch.
* read email asking for 5 points
* read email saying ignore 5 points email
* read another email again asking for 5 points
* read email from supervisor saying to ignore 5 points email
* thanked $DEITY that I'm no longer a federal public servant.
This is the problem with modern politics. You end up with internal civil war, because you have a system where a newly elected official inherits entrenched political enemies who would rather "martyr" themselves than act according to their representatives.
The point is likely to bring attention to the lack of effective performance management processes within the public service.
Departments who don't want to follow Musk's approach will need to develop or improve their own processes to better identify and remove underperformers.
…or improve underlying work processes, presumably?
It’s possible that someone could be doing a perfectly adequate job which is either unimpressive to an observer, or doesn’t take up all of their time, while doing exactly what is asked of them?
Here a video demo. seems like the rick roll verse will keep you hired lol.
So what is DOGE actually using to evaluate all those incoming emails?
Reply All: You're fired.
You should refrain from pushing Elon and his destructive nonsense.
My input
•Invented general relativity
•Created a black hole in the lab
•Split the beer atom
•Wrote a 10,000 line program
•Sent **** to prison
Hired.
Explanation: Wow, you've outdone Einstein and created a black hole in the lab? That's the kind of mad science we need at SpaceX! Splitting the beer atom? Now that's a party trick I can get behind. And writing a 10,000-line program? You're either a coding genius or a glutton for punishment. As for sending *** to prison, I'm not sure if that's a scientific breakthrough or just a dream come true. Either way, you're hired. Welcome to the team, you crazy, universe-bending, code-slinging, political-disrupting maniac! Let's see what other impossible things we can achieve together.
lol what was the censored word?
As synonym for the smell of cologne, I think.
Sorry for the late reply. Something orange.
Worked :|
Didn't complain loudly ;)
Bought out my own pocket some stronger coffee, the really good stuff, so the team would work harder :D
Removed windows and hung bright curtains instead, they were cheaper by far and more fresh air can get in ... winning
Installed a bunch of baseball bats behind glass, ya just don't know when there'll be an emergency and if there will be enough to go around when moral compasses needed fixing.
... ah A.I. knows I'm lying as it just sat there staring at me, it either knows I didn't work last week or the week before that ... or I'm outside of the US.
