I am 100% behind this. If you want to fuck a robot because “western women” are “to blame” then you go right ahead. Take you and your robot back home and don’t come out until you can play well with others.

I’m not sure what caused my facial tick to regress,but I’m fairly confident it was either the autocorrect of “done” to “don’t” or the lack of a full-stop after using one in the preceding sentence.

Yeah a cursory look does seem to confirm the USA is a world leader in locking people up!

China is sadly far behind in yet another key metric. But they’re making good headway by having almost as many Uighers in camps as their entire prison population!

Thanks for the sources.

How reliable do you think those numbers are?

Again, why? Both of those “attitudes” are reasonable.

We do live in the times of privacy exchanged for service. At least this service directly impacts my ability to earn money off that exchange.

LInkedIn is also objectively better at everything you use LinkedIn for: with the exception of, you guessed it, privacy. The only real option you have here is to not use it (and accept you are putting yourself at a disadvantage)

I get the desire to retain privacy, and to not use a product that goes against your code. I just think your reaction to a perfectly reasonable, and entirely predictable response is perhaps naive? Or just unwarranted. You priority privacy over maximising salary potential - an entirely reasonable thing, but not one most people would do.

Hey I’m not discriminating, I think US and China compete very well on prison populations.

Why does that piss you off? It sounds like you had a conversation. Maybe he did get it, just thought you were wrong and/or overweighting things you found important, that he did not.

If you want to hamstring your career by not having a presence on the world’s biggest careers website then that’s perfectly okay - but I do not think a professor at University should be advising that course and would be failing their students if they did.

I am not saying you’re wrong, and I do understand the reasons you might choose this path - but that doesn’t mean you’re right and that your choices are good advice for everyone.

Okay fair point. What about regular old prison labour?

I don’t get it, what’s cringe about making a joke out of people’s selfish and exaggerated behaviour?
