To start for today, we have Job Tips For Geeks talking about stupid recruiter tricks, specifically about “where are you interviewing?”. If you have interviewed as a software developer, you have likely been asked this question. FastML follows on their original post on the fear of AI, continuing to tell us there is nothing to fear except maybe some job losses. There are several good articles in the data-related section below. I would highlight them all, so please take a look at all of them.

As always, enjoy today’s items, and please participate in the discussions on these sites.
