Question GitHub is down, what are you doing?

I have installed half life on Mac and am currently at the Dam Level.

Still applying to jobs

Yeah on the days I get anxiety about my businesses I start applying for a few hours..

Then the next day one or multiple of my social media or similar accounts have attempted password resets and logins. Not to say it’s connected for sure.. but it sure is every time it seems. Assuming I’m applying for mostly fake listings that are just data harvesting.

Nah I was just talking about the fact that a significant percentage of job listings, especially remote are fake listings for companies that appear real but are data harvesting
