They won’t lowball you below range, though. So it is a “competitive” salary in that sense. It almost always behooves you to ask for more than you reasonably think they would give you.
Also, usually recruiters are judged almost exclusively on “time to fill”, meaning they aren’t judged by how cheaply they get people in the door, just how fast they do it.
I have some insight into this.
It actually means that:
companies identify peer groups of companies that they compete with for hiring,
they get aggregated data on everyone’s pay from data brokers (they submit anonymized compensation info, brokers aggregate it and distribute the aggregate data to their customers)
they pick a market percentile of the compensation range of their peers that they target for various jobs
they build pay ranges around that target percentile
Effectively, if most companies target pay “at market” i.e. market median, it normalizes industry pay to the median. This does depress wages, but also provides upward pressure at the low end. Sort of like a price fixing scheme.
Some companies target higher than that, and those effectively provide upward labor market pressure.
So, “competitive” means “sort of near to or higher than the statistical median for this job among companies we consider peers”. Unless they’re just lying or misinformed - but they’d have a hard time retaining employees.
Sygyt is the style that sounds nasal-y but with a high pitched overtone.
Kargyraa is the really growly sounding one.

Not intelligence, not super. Doubleplusgood duckspeak.
Underwater, I have. I’ve seen two - a group of large barracuda and one extremely large eel - looked like a Giant Moray.
I was probably like 14-16 at the time, diving in the Atlantic and Pacific respectively.
Reactions for both were just to stay away from them and make sure they didnt come closer, while trying to get a good look. It was kind of surreal seeing them, because you don’t usually expect to encounter things like these.
Barracuda aren’t particularly scary, but they are some of the largest fish I’ve seen underwater - probably around 5ft (1.5m) long and I was within 20ft (6m) of two or three of them. They are also quite aggressive, though not usually to divers. I was swimming up from below them coming up from around 60-80ft (18-24m), so we got a good view of them swimming around near the surface.
This Giant Moray is the largest creature I’ve ever seen in the water bar-none. We were diving a reef, and as we swam over some rocky structures, there was this hollow in the rock - like a partly-covered underwater grotto - and in it I could see this absolutely massive eel. I thought it was some kind of coral or something until I saw its face. The surface I saw of the eel had to be nearly 1.5ft wide (45cm), since they’ye ovoid in cross-section I may have gotten the impression that it was larger than it really was. But even still, it must have been nearly that large in diameter and probably about 9ft (2.7m) long, though I couldn’t see all of it at once. I was a bit frightened just because of the sheer size of the eel, and I thought they were more aggressive than they are, but we couldn’t get too close because of the rock. It was really cool to see. In years since then I thought maybe I was misremembering the event because it seemed surreal to see such a large eel - but then I researched a bit and found that giant morays can be… giant… while there are other species that I’ve also seen that are much smaller.
I think they’re neat. Like with all wild animals, though, I want to keep my distance. Especially to the aquatic variety.
I experienced a sense of awe in both situations as well as a very real sense of how dangerous these animals could be if they wanted to be.
- is an insanely fast learner
This person very clearly does not understand, even at a basic level, how llms work. They are completely incapable of “learning” outside of training, and training cannot happen while you are using them - in no small part because they require MILLIONS of tokens of data (minimum) to be able to recognize patterns.
Meanwhile that theoretical stupid kid she thinks should be paying her masters to have her teach them can learn instantaneously from even a single datapoint.
Probably to be like the ancap flag which is yellow and black. Apparently yellow symbolizes capitalism and free market ideology.
Little different for me:
$1 - 5 = $5
$6 - 12 = $10
$13 - 20 = $20
$21 - 50 = $50
$51 - 70 = $100
>$70 = $1000
Hep A is the food one, hep b is the sex one, hep c is the blood one.
Little more complicated than that, but that’s how you usually get them
