By the time an interview ends, a candidate usually has a good sense of whether it went well or not. I've interviewed hundreds of candidates and I would never jump into this feedback mode OP describes. There's not much point in giving positive feedback if they're already feeling good about the interview. If you give someone negative feedback (no matter how constructive) they're going to get defensive and want to plead their case; but it's the end of the interview and there's no time for that. OP says people express gratitude for the feedback, but what does he expect them to do? Anyone who doesn't appreciate it still doesn't want to tank the interview by appearing ungrateful. Never play psychological games in interviews.

The problem is the interviewer though.

There is no fixing an interviewer who doesn't understand the answers really. You need a third party for that.

Have had weird interviews with people who don't introduce themselves and assume that I definitely am interested in whatever the job is even though I know nothing and proceed to ask questions that amount to "how does palantir work" and get irritated when the answer isn't "we used database X".

Fundamentally one needs a meta approach that handles these cases too without knowing who is interviewing who. Could an interviewee give feedback like this without sounding arrogant?

These look like cool technology but coming from Meta is an absolute deal-breaker for me.

What are best competing products? My use cases would be productivity and watching movies; gaming, not so much.

Yeah, I know the point of this site is to give us a dystopian shock by showing us how much information Big Tech extracts from our photos, but it's inadvertently a pretty good advertisement for Google's Vision API. It did a fantastic job of summarizing the photos I threw at it.

I wonder how unique those floor tile patterns are? If that's taken on a military base in Korea, it might be possible to find the exact location of the photo.

> The military’s professional norms are a check against a potential abuse of power.

Right. And norms might be a bulwark for six months or two years, and then they'll crumple against relentless assault. It's the same progression we've already seen play out in many areas of government with Trump's first term.

It sounds like a debutante ball for the newly-minted ultra wealthy

Every ad I've seen from Temu is either AI-fabricated non-existent products, or real products with impossibly low prices. I wish somebody would sue them into the ground for false advertising.

In my experience, they're legit, but only for first-time customers. They basically eat the cost of the difference to get you in the door.

Aliexpress does this as well. You have to log in to see the real pricing.

That's where creating new accounts like [name]+aliexpress2@[domain] come in handy, no?

I mean we're talking about saving around 2-3$ from some really bad garbage products you use once and throw it in a corner.

It might just be me, but every Temu ad I see is a normalish product, but the image is designed to look like something sexy or illicit when viewed as a small thumbnail.

You seem like someone who doesn't want to shop like a billionaire! In all seriousness I 100% agree, I feel like this company is a massive house of cards that will end up like Evergrande etc. What is crazy is almost every site I visit I see a Temu ad so their ad spend is borderline insane to begin with, it growing larger is even more unbelievable.

Johannes Vonk and the Clogheads... now there's a band from the days when the bin man was hard

If you flip it from "Explore" to "Research", the UI becomes a lot more practical.

It's a shame, the Ameristan near-future dystopia parts of Fall were quite good, but the virtual world plot became increasingly silly. My mood would pick up whenever I landed on a chapter that got back to the "real world" plot.
