There’s also these that are rated for 300V 15A https://www.amazon.com/5-08mm-Terminal-Connector-Pluggable-Connector-Phoenix/dp/B0CM3Y1WS5/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?sr=8-1

I use something like this when repairing screw terminals that my students have applied too much torque to and broken the through hole pins on. It’s a great type of connector. But if we’re talking portability, then it’s maybe not the most ergonomic.

What are your other requirements?

• Is this for a production or a one of a kind hobby/repair project?
• How budget aware are you?
• you mention portability. How often would you need to unplug it? And will it be done by you or someone who requires a bit more user proofing?

Have you considered using more than one pin per pole? Ie if you had a 15pin connector, that can take 3A per pin, then shorting 3pins will give you 5 pins 9A. There will be more considerations to this though. Like how can you make sure that the parallel pins present a similar resistance, so you don’t get an unbalanced load.

Dolly and Cash?

You can be outraged all you’d like, but if you choose to, then we’re not really competing for the same jobs.

I get that they’re busy, but it’s their problem, not mine.

So? What are you going to do about it? They’re making it your problem, and you can comply or not get hired.

IDK about you, but I’ve got a family to feed, car payments to make, a mortgage, and no self-esteem. It’s clearly hyperbole, but if I have to go down on a clown to make it easier to meet my income requirements, then I’m not gay but I’ll still be looking for some tictacs.

Tbf I’ve done that with first joblistings. Like “ask questions that a suitable candidate for the following joblisting should answer in a job application”. And then pasting my cover letters asking for relevancy and phrasing help. Maybe I should try for ATS optimization.

I wonder if it would work to upload resume.pdf.exe to an ATS, and fill out the form with enough BS exaggeration to be sure that person will see it.

Now you get it. That was what I was trying to say. They’re just trying to look like they’re doing enough to get paid.

I met a company that still has a machine in their production line, that uses 5.25" floppy discs and an amber monochrome display. “Why?” I hear you ask. Because it still works, it isn’t networked, and the floppies next to it are the only ones it’ll ever interact with.

Update: ffs I’m not defending hr, they’re usually incompetent buffoons. But they’re the incompetent buffoons you need to get past if you want to get hired. And I don’t know about you, but when Frito Pendejo said “I like money” I kinda agreed with him. Anyway back to my OC:

Why? They’re HR and hiring managers, not IT specialists.

Try seeing it from HR’s perspective. They post a job and get +200 applications. The success criteria is not hiring the best candidate, it’s hiring a suitable candidate. Given that premise, why would you read through all 200 applications, when there’s someone with a nice website and cool sounding software, who promise that their product can sort through the resumes and only pick the relevant ones for you?

Heck, I’m definitely going to be looking for an ATS testing site for my CV now. It really doesn’t matter what we think of it. If you want to communicate you’ll have to do it in a way that your recipient will understand, and if my recipient is a PoS software that can’t read PDFs, then writing my CV in latex is probably not the most effective way to communicate.

I thought that Musk and Trump kept their wealth as cash in vaults for swimming purposes.

Now now, he’s not lying lying, he’s just really into “alternative appraisal and accounting methods”. Kinda like that aunt who does her own research and swears by essential oils and homeopathy, but with money.

Let me give you an example. Let’s say that I have a truck load of coarse sand, like 25 tons. I manage to sell a single 10mg grain of sand for 1 USD. By appraising my sand based fortune on this single data point, I could claim that a gram is worth 100 USD, thus I have 2.5 billion USD tied up in sand. We both know that I obviously can’t liquidate my sand for that amount, but that doesn’t matter, because all I need is to convince a bank that my appraisal is sound and then use the sand as collateral for a 100 million USD loan. Some of that loan I’ll further invest in the sand business, after all it’s booming. More sand equals more collateral, and seeing as one bank was satisfied with my collateral, then I will be able to get other banks in on it too. And now I can live like a billionaire, all because I have invested in coarse sand. And if the banks figure out that I’m full of it, then what are they going to do? Take me to court and look like idiots for buying into my sand appraisal? And risk bankruptcy as it’s revealed that the collateral the bank has for its lending business is worthless? Better to keep quiet and prop up the sand mogul.

Great, just what we need, an even louder Trump

Nah, I heard that she ran out of tictacs, and had the nerve to ask Trump to start washing occasionally, instead of popping a mint before going down.

Limbaugh’s dead? I guess it’s been years since I thought of him last.

Why? Because you prefer it? I don’t.

9+1 = 10, therefore 91 is divisible by 10 and is not a prime … QED, I guess

Are we eventually gonna get more fusion […]

Either you mean fission, or the “more” could be omitted.

I can’t figure out what “træppen” is supposed to be. I mean “mædens” can sound like “maidens” unless you use the soft Danish d. IIRC the ‘þ’ character is a th sound, so “þe” is is pronounced “the”.

… But “træppen”? here I’m at a loss.
