Also can we talk about the pear image on their job posting?

There's something unsettling about it that I can't quite put my finger on. Actually all the images. Like the weird outer space bubble office one where the pears ended up looking like Dragon Quest slimes or something?


Also also: do not put important information about your job posting inside of a PNG image with no alt tag. Unless you want to drive away blind appli-- ohhhhhh.

regarding the unsettling: the colour toning and "light level" is badly done, for the light in context. they set up the pear to look like a hologram (I guess?), except they fucked up the detail against the very setting they put it in: looks brighter and brighter towards the back, with some detail diffusion, with the one in the front just being "max detail but highly grainy"

does look fucking wild though

extreme wtfery re the job posting

Paolo tends to post colours (red or green) to signal upcoming pumps or dumps. Now you might think that was cartoon simplistic, Paolo must not be very bright, and bitcoin must be quite stupid really, and you'd be correct. Anyway, he has a particular fondness for pear emojis for his green "pump coming" symbol.

it's also too consistent - they're all copypasta with no variation per pear besides size

See, all this is what academic journals are supposed to provide: pear review.
