If we were to optimize the time put in editing templates, JSONs make sense, but the downside is sentence correction features.

Absolutely!! Resumes are something everyone has to deal with but I am surprised there is no standardization.

Are we expected to be creative at resume template? I don't think candidates who are really applying for jobs care about it.

So, why is this not promoted by companies?

Mostly techies use JSON (for good reason) and its not that hard for others to catch up with it. Does it take 5-10mins? It's not C programming bruh.

That HRs read CVs in formats as they were submitted isn't universal. Most CVs go through parsers and presented in a standardized format. I have not seen good PDF parser and that means what they read is with noise, biased against a good outcome for the candidate.

The industry could simply standardize a JSON structure and ask candidates to submit in such a format.

and that people with bachelors degree cannot teach themselves how to write simple JSON structure is laughable.

Ask HN: Why Apple Mail made it harder to move email to junk?

I remember few iOS versions before there was a "move to junk" button on the bottom bar of Apple Mail. I move marketing and spams to junk.Usually Gmail is good at spams but not marketing/newsletter ones.In recent versions, Apple Mail removed that button, and now I need to do few swipes and clips to accomplish that task. I don't like it but I am forced to often do it!It just feels like Apple's...
