  • Cant answer for certain, but they is a chance that it wasnt connected to the network.

    My company has some version of chatGPT that has been brought into our intranet and does not communicate with the outside. It also “forgets” all of the user input every so often (i think like 15 minutes?).

    Our eventual plan is to feed it our internal best practice documents and all of our design records so that it can learn about our company. But it will be ours, and not connected to the outside world. We had a legit concern about data leaks, and this is how they got around it.



  • You gain an extra level of deniability if you dont ask. Also its about how its received by the interviewee. If i ask how your summers going and you offer up you have 5 kids, thats different than me asking if you have kids. If i bring up your family situation or kids, the natural question arises, “why would he care about that?” And it can guide the mind to discrimination. People are aware of the fact that having kids have a preception in the corporate world, and if they dont want that to influence the process, theyre not going to offer it up. But just like anything, if someone wants to file a frivolous law suit, theyre going to find a way


  • Not in HR, but am involved in the hiring process. We are not allowed to ask personal questions. Cant talk about family or personal background. If i ask a question about someones family and they tell me they have 5 kids, and they dont get the job because we found a better candidate, they have a clear and obvious path to file a discrimination case.

    “I didnt get hired because they knew i had 5 kids and they assumed I wouldn’t be able to dedicate time to the company yada yada.”

    " i told them that my religion was xyz and they knew my religious holidays dont align with their holiday schedule and they didnt hire me because they didnt want to make new policy to allow me my time and give me my protected right to religion"

    Its just easier to not



  • I dont know if your location in canada is similar, but i know the mega churches (and some smaller churches) around me have an open door policy and allow anyone to be in their lobby to use their internet during the daylight hours. Some even provide coffee and snacks all day.

    Dont know if thats any sort of option for you, and you might have people from the church approaching you at times, but maybe it could have worked out?







  • Some office work too though. If you want to actually win the contracts, you gotta go fast. Granted, it’s not fast all the time, and we can plan when those contracta sprints are coming, to an extent, but I would definitely describe my office job as fast paced.

    Not to mention when the customer changes the statement of work you’re bidding on…
