Wot not meant to be something to score skills on, more of an additional filter. We also have the social mechanism- the best one.

Resumes over nostr

Problem: Employers want the best candidates, but get an overwhelming number of unqualified or underqualified applicants.

Candidate: wants the best possible job with the best possible company (think reputation), but is probably already employed because they are in high demand.

Employers never see the best possible candidate, and the best possible candidate does not apply because that process is stressful.

Solution: Resumes over nostr

How it works:

1. Anyone can create a nostr-native resume (new NIP).

2. This resume benefits from the Web of Trust score of the creator. Employers get a glimpse of whether this is someone who is in some way connected to people they know or follow (referrals are generally better than cold applicants).

3. Individual gets to put themselves out into the market without applying (think LinkedIn). Employers then search a pool of candidates based on their criteria. This could include a WoT score, shared working connections (new NIP could support this), skills criteria, etc… Let’s say I know Kieran and trust his judgement, and would like to know all the people he is connected to (maybe also dedicated some specific level of trust), who happen to have public resumes. I could then search for semi-vetted candidates.

4. Companies can send offers to candidates who may not even be available yet, but are possibly open to new opportunities with the right company, for the right compensation amount.

5. Companies also have profiles that benefit from their own WoT. (the more people follow them, the more likely they are to have a better reputation).

6. Public resumes keep candidates honest about their work history, education etc.. because anyone can verify that

Thoughts?

If you are working on Nostr: what are you doing? (Explain it to a non-dev).

Genuinely curious.

P.s. Shitposting does not count

are we in a time warp or the timestamps on primal are broken?

I reject the idea that people shouldn't care what others think about them. We are made to be social creatures. Without honor and shame society wouldn't function.

Ironically, those who say you shouldn't care about people's opinion of you often resort to name-calling, demonstrating that social esteem is inescapable.

And this is a good thing. Communication is given to us so that we can have an effect on the world around us. The serenity prayer does not mean we ought to give up and isolate ourselves, quite the opposite.

The solution to being hurt isn't to withdraw into stoicism, but to realize that God has offered a seat of honor at his table to you, an undeserving sinner.

"For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ."

This is the only escape from the tyrrany of others' opinion - not to give up caring, but to know whose opinion actually matters.

I don't think John Wick is a good movie series, but part of me likes them anyway because it's Keanu.

Lol, imagine if Coinbase actually did stay focused

Funding cohesion.

Non-plumbing consumer facing projects often have more than one dev.

If we want FOSS customer facing applications, we need to fund them as a team. Dev(s)+Front_ppl, that front end maybe include designer, front end dev, ux person, etc...

Tacking on a designer later keeps things as shitty as they are now.

Many/most devs would love to defer the front of the house to a front of the house person. But not later when he did all the work and a non-technical designer comes and tells him to change everything.

Startups with the best user experience win because they have a tight team from the beginning.

Cisco sucks because they have. Design department vs dev department.

FOSS suffers from this syndrome and attracts the wrong resources at the wrong time.

Funding orgs amplify this by not encouraging teams vs individuals.

The goal is not "more" FOSS stuff, it's more FOSS stuff that gets USED.

Hello! I like photography and music. Is this the right place?

When I see a intellectual people NOT understand Bitcoin, what is often preventing them from “getting it”, is a deeply held, core belief that the world is spiraling out of control and can’t get better. Because of this pessimistic conviction, it’s almost like it’s impossible for them to wrap their head around it. It’s a very strange yet persistent theme.

growth based on subsidized infrastructure is not growth.

MORE CLIENTS SHOULD SUPPORT DISPOSABLE NPUBS. AMETHYST IS LEADING THE WAY HERE. WOULD BE THE SINGLE BIGGEST PRIVACY WIN FOR ONLINE SPEECH ACROSS THE BOARD.

NORMALIZE SINGLE USE DISPOSABLE IDENTITIES. AS THE REST OF THE INTERNET MOVES TOWARD LINKING EVERY ACTION TO LEGAL IDENTITIES, NOSTR REPRESENTS A BRIGHTER PATH.

doesn't look so

then again, it looks v/ broken
