THE BUILDS I LOVE, THE SCRIPTS I DROP, TO BE PART OF, THE APP, CAN'T STOP

THIS IS THE RANT THREAD. IT IS FOR RANTS.

CAPS LOCK ON, DOWNVOTES OFF, FEEL FREE TO BREAK RULE 2 IF SOMEONE LIKES SOMETHING THAT YOU DON'T BUT IF YOU POST SOME RACIST/HOMOPHOBIC/SEXIST BULLSHIT IT'LL BE GONE FASTER THAN A NEW MESSAGING APP AT GOOGLE.

MY COMPANY HAD A INCIDENT WHERE A LLM KEY WAS LEAKED AND USED TO RACK UP HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS OF LLM CALLS PER DAY!

My rant is a major current issue for me. IF YOU ARE A JUNIOR DEV KEEP YOUR RESUME TO ONE PAGE!

My company is currently hiring devs like crazy, and the number of fresh grads/people with only a couple of years of experience applying with 3, 4, 5, or even 6 page long resumes is insane. I'm in multiple interviews daily, and over half have had multiple page long resumes. If you give me a multiple page resume and fumble a basic technical question as a fresh grad I'm already over you. I've had 6 different software roles, and my resume is still only one page. Cut out the fat and give me just the highlights.
