I wouldn't hire someone who formats their CV like that. Employment is a serious proposition, and ... Ah just kidding. Nice CV.

It's the kind of thing that you can only get away with if you're very, very good. At that point it becomes a kind of power move, like showing up to a high end interview in jeans and a t-shirt.

Yea, that resume takes a certain amount of chutzpah, doesn't it? Kind of a clever idea for a cover letter, though, with a "standard" resume attached.

Or if you pretend that you are very good. If you show up to an interview in jeans and a t-shirt, people will think you are very good.

True, it can also be a form of peacocking. But in an industry where results are easily tested it's much harder to get away with that.

In this case, the guy has been spearheading a very high performance, innovative methodology for real-time object detection. Companies interested in that task should be falling over themselves to hire him.

Chrome on Android auto downloads PDFs.

Odd I'm in firefox. I think Chrome for me asked which app to open with but that probably means it was already downloaded.

I don't know I've heard of malware with PDFs, I know probably a stretch on Android and this person/HN probably not really a concern. Still don't like auto-download unless expecting one. But I get it was the lack of a browser PDF displayer. Maybe he isn't running PDF.js or whatever that is you run to display pdfs on your site.

(Sorry for so much text, TL;DR I'm afraid of what I don't know) I think I'm secure, but am I really secure?
