  • Potentially… if you ever get to a position when you can actually file a lawsuit. If you are a US citizen and not a citizen of the country you are being deported to then that means the country accepting you knows that you are not actually one of their citizens and may actually detain you. Even if you are released, you will likely have no identification and no resources. And even if you do happen to contact a lawyer, how would you prove that you are a citizen?

    ICE and Customs and Border Protection (CBP) lack the records to even know how many people they may have deported in error

    And if the government isn’t keeping records of who they have deported then it is going to be even more difficult to prove that you’ve been illegally deported.


  • This is the answer.

    I found myself unemployed in late 2022, just after ChatGPT had rolled out… I obviously didn’t want to have ChatGPT write my resume because it’s still pretty obvious when someone does that, but I did use it as a tool to help me with structure and brainstorming ideas. The first month of looking was rough. The second month I started feeding the job applications in to ChatGPT and asked for it to create a resume for the job, and then I’d use that to rework my resume. I very quickly started getting interviews and by the 3rd month I was starting my new job.

    I often tell people that I’ve never worked harder than when I didn’t have a job, and even with the help of an LLM it was still a lot of work, but I do think it gave me an edge.








  • The kid is 1.5 months old and you don’t have time? Once that kid gets mobile you’ll really not have time! And I don’t mean crawling or walking, I mean rolling and scooting.

    When my kid figured out how to get places by rolling I had gotten up with her early on a Saturday morning and was letting my wife sleep in… I went to the basement and turned on the Xbox to pay some Rocket League and in the middle of a game she started to roll out of the room. I put the controller down and went to pick her up… 4 years later that controller was exactly where I had put it. She’s now almost 9 and is a great gaming partner, and is getting into robotics, 3D printing, and is interested in programming, so I get to jump right back into my old hobbies, and pick up some new ones.

    All that to say, Linux is only going to get better and Windows will continue to get worse, but there’s more important things for you to have to worry about in the very near future than troubleshooting an OS that you’re not familiar with, stick with Win 10 for as long as you can and some day you’ll sit down at your desk and realize you have time to look back in at Linux and you’ll find that it isn’t nearly as difficult to use as you remember. Congratulations on the kid, it can be an incredible journey watching, and helping, a person emerge.
