Sorry for off topic-ness, but I feel compelled to point out just how much "shitposting" is subjective.. no? + Show Spoiler [rant] +![[image loading]](http://image.slidesharecdn.com/internetsecutity-150424200352-conversion-gate02/95/internet-security-8-638.jpg?cb=1429906044) You peeps speak of the "cover up" as if it is a part of the solution.. never mentioning the bad involved.. never once saying I regret or I think "oversight" is good.. basically declaring that internet is the sewer you like to pee in and that it has to be / will always be this way (for you and for others). The idea that you don't/won't have to pay for "past sins", be held accountable is ridiculous to the Nth degree! ![[image loading]](http://s2.quickmeme.com/img/a4/a4c77d969d21df30bb8c0e453ad5fd0accd033a2db2f4de8587efeb33308ba84.jpg) Internet is in its infancy and already it is hurting, killing more than brevic.. with people ignoring this fact like they like to ignore most of anything that comes in the way of their hubris-ed use of internet . Thinking you can stroll on this virtual space without all the corollaries is so naive I want to faint.

If the blog post is old enough you can't edit it. It had my real name in there and I don't want this account linked to anything professional I do in the future :p If a kid in my class can find it then someone else could as well Unless you're a really crappy poster, I wouldn't worry too much about employers finding your gaming forum account. Everyone got hobbies. Tbh, I'd be more worried about the flow in the opposite direction: some TL troll that finds your professional online presence could be pretty annoying if they so choose. No need to be a crappy poster, you just have to mention in some posts that you're browsing TL at work to be in trouble^^ In our office, it's sometimes hard to find someone who isn't browsing TL  However as scientists, we are judged by our results and publication output, not by how we spend every minute of our lives ... so I can slack for hours "at work" and then spend evenings and weekends neck deep in stupid errors in code. Honestly, I find this obsession with finding online dirt on people really puzzling. I know that HR can disfavour you just because of some stupid facebook shit ... but why? How on Earth is that their business? I am not even sure that it's legal (because at least in Europe, it is illegal to ask many sorts of personal questions during job interviews), but it happens all the time. I am so fucking happy that I don't have to play this stupid game - actually, I have to play another stupid game (grants, publications, points ...) but it's still much less stupid than normal recruiting. Thus, my real life is easily linkable to by online presence and I don't care. You can find my real name in ten seconds if you give it any try and as my real name is pretty unique and my work is by essence online, you can know everything you want very easily. Yes, agreed. It's not a real problem (at least in research) that your potential employers go and dig up dirt on you on TL. The one thing that worries me a little bit is if someone on TL really hates someone and then dig up their twitter or other social media used professionally. They can then cause some significant embarrassment and in general be really annoying when you want to focus on networking. I've seen it a couple of times, and even though everyone knows that it is the stalker that's the idiot, I can still see how an employer maybe would think twice if there is another similarly skilled candidate. What do you think? I really don't do "networking", so I dunno  But can't you just block the annoying person on most social networks? In any case, if I were a recruiter, I wouldn't pay much attention to this stuff, knowing how skewed view of reality it presents. In general, I would really like to see more rationality in ... everything, ergo also in evaluation social media information. If everyone knows that it's the stalkers fault, everyone should act like that. Surely, there is this "similarly skilled" problem, but does that really happen so often, if the evaluation isn't really shallow? From my personal experience, people are really different from each other. But then again, I have zero experience with non-academic jobs. Here recruitment is more like dating - both sides realize that it's a great match and then the deal is sealed. But even again, I know that this is not the case even in academia in other fields or countries.
By not doing networking, you really hurt yourself in the long term. I don't do it either, and it's the reason why I now earn less than others of my skill level and experience. Networking is pretty much everything, eventhough it sucks. A former colleague got a new job recently that pays 70% more than his old job, because someone he kept contact to is building up a new team and needs someone with his qualifications and so of course he got offered the job first. If he hadn't done networking, he'd never have gotten offered that job.
It's not good, especially for people like me who aren't exactly "people persons", but networking is essential if you want to get anywhere and I regret that I suck so much at it.

Normally I would now open a thread about how Nazi KBB is and all that jazz, but I am tired, lazy and overworked, so can we just pretend it happened as expected?

Man I'm still amazed how people keep getting banned for basic balance whine stuff. Like some of the things people have been getting banned for have lead to bans for years now, but every single time people seem to think that this time it will be different. Says something interesting about the human condition when you think about it.
