I got it on google I haven't tried it for myself, but my windows work computer is a surface book and it is doing pretty drat well at some forms of text recognition. Like I can honestly say that for note taking, one note has exceeded my expectations in pretty much all the ways. text + media + drawing + text recognition + whatever the gently caress you want on infinite pages. It's pretty good. Like I'd consider buying a personal one in the future if it were not about the abysmal terminal situation on there.

Linked In has some sort of system for detecting if it thinks you are looking for a job. They then show you to recruiters more often, especially those looking for paid leads. I'm sure updating your resume counts.

also there is an 'I'm looking for a job' tickbox you can flag that recruiters see:)

You should not apply if money is important to you and if you have a family of any kind.

I think these jobs are specifically posted like this to prevent people from actually applying because the job doesn't exist. They're actually just a covert way to hide keywords for a sleeper agent to read and be activated.
