Sorry to hijack a thread. Hi, /u/spez ,

I am an IT final year student from a small college in a small town. It's not a hyperbole if I say that Reddit is my *dream* company to work with. There's a lot of exiting work that I can contribute to and things that I can learn from Reddit. Plus the ethics and your active involvement makes Reddit one of the best company to work with.

Catch? Catch is that even though *I really want* to work with you, I don't completely know the process, and what do you seek specifically. So, can you shed some light on what are your current requirements, so that I can learn what you need.

Academically I am at best above average, but humbly considered one of the brightest student. I am good at designing systems that are sustainable and innovative. I am good in tech and non-tech stuff. Fluent in 3 languages. My interest incline towards ML and DL.

My USP is that I want to learn, anything and everything. I put my 100% with no complain.

So, /u/spez/ can you help out a budding IT student on the path of life? For the emotional touch up, think of the time when you were 22. Right, you started Reddit. It's a full circle. Circle of Reddit.

Hope to be a valuable part of your team. Thank you for your time and advice. Really appreciate your work. Good luck to you :)

1. When are you going to take responsibility for the fact that the #3 subreddit is a hate group that spreads Russian propaganda freely? (reddit.com/subreddits)

2. When are you going to take responsibility for helping hostile powers both foreign and domestic attack our democracy?

Our 2018 elections are under attack and we are defenseless. The president is refusing to allow our intelligence communities to protect us. 70% of the local news markets are now broadcasting Sinclair and along with the largest cable network, are filling our airwaves with actual fascist propaganda. We are approaching a moment in the next few weeks in which actual rule of law may be thrown out when the special prosecutor is fired.

Our country is falling to fascism in slow motion and Reddit is *helping it along* and *profiting from it*.

The #3 subreddit, which you give an audience of *hundreds of millions* to, at the *top of the subreddits list*, broadcasts actual Russian propaganda 24/7. I can't believe we've reached a day when their hate group activities have become less important, but they have.

Our democracy is in real danger, and you're going to take your CEO paycheck into your bunker and not give a shit.

You are *knowingly aiding and abetting* information warfare against the United States-- against me, personally, because I live here-- and you should be prosecuted for it.

Spez,

I heard about the new reddit layout on desktop. Will this change the way everything looks?
