    Yes.

    The text you entered is too short. Please use more than 50 characters.

      yep. there’s a small chance it’s an honest mistake

      a bigger chance it’s malice

      and mostly just incompetence

      either way, not a company I want to apply to

            You know what. Forget hiring me. Just add me to payroll. My compensation is x weekly.

            A company dumb enough to use AI chat to hire is dumb enough to use an AI accountant.

    Nobody is talking about the “3996 characters left”.

    That’s room for a novel of positivity.

      This is the one and only use for ChatGPT - a polite fuck you to whoever thought a 50-4000 character limit was appropriate for a yes/no question.

      If there are 10 of those fields you could fit the whole script of The Bee Movie[2007].

      17 pieces of flair is just the minimum, but a real team member goes for more.

      My favourite is the zero width space. It has interesting interactions with many text fields.

        oh man I was fighting with a supplier of one of our systems and about this exact thing a couple months ago, I think. copy/pasting something from one part of their software would allow an invisible/zerolength character in a unique identifier field, which obviously fucks shit up. they, as always, were incredibly difficult to deal with instead of just acknowledging the bug and saying they’ll fix it

      These bad boys are really great: 🧑🏼‍🤝‍🧑🏿

      It has to encode the skin color and gender and that it is two persons and that all of that needs to be joined together. Or in other words:

    In short, I would have to say “yes, I’m applying for the full-time role” - though as you have 5000 characters available for this answer, I imagine you want a more thorough response to this question. Let’s start from the beginning:

      Well, let’s see. First the earth cooled. And then the dinosaurs came, but they got too big and fat, so they all died and they turned into oil. And then the Arabs came and they bought Mercedes Benzes.
