But there’s one more step to solidify that positive impression: the thank-you note. Often overlooked, this simple gesture could set you apart in a crowded field of candidates. In this article, I’m going to share exactly what to do (and NOT do) when thanking the employer, based on my experience as a recruiter. Highlights Send your thank-you email within 24 hours of the interview to keep your interaction fresh in the interviewer’s mind. Customize your thank you note after the interview to…

Bri­an Eno was think­ing about the pur­pose of art a decade ago, as evi­denced by his 2015 John Peel Lec­ture (pre­vi­ous­ly fea­tured here on Open Cul­ture). But he was also think­ing about it three decades ago, as evi­denced by A Year with Swollen Appen­dices, his diary of the year 1995 pub­lished by Faber & Faber. This year, that same house is bring­ing out What Art Does: An Unfin­ished The­o­ry, a new book on that very sub­ject writ­ten by Eno, in col­lab­o­ra­tion with the artist and nov­el­ist Bette Adri­aanse, bet­ter known as Bette A. It deals with the ques­tions Eno lays…

A reader recently sent me a clip from Chris Williamson’s podcast. In the segment, Williamson discusses his evolving relationship with productivity: “Look, I come from a productivity background. When I first started this show, I was chatting shit about Pomodoro timers, and Notion external brains, and Ebbinhaus forgetting curves, and all of that. Right? I’ve been through the ringer, so I’m allowed to say, and, um, you realize after a while that it ends up being this weird superstitious rain dance you’re doing, this sort of odd sort of productivity rain dance, in the desperate hope that later that day…

After nearly two years, Showtime’s hit series “Yellowjackets” is finally back for its third season. Though Season 1 was critically acclaimed, the second suffered from an unraveling narrative that oftentimes felt too chaotic for the grounded show this once was. (A classic example of a bloated sophomore season that didn’t understand that the languid pace and unanswered questions in its first were what made it so successful.) However, with Season 3, the show has allowed these questions to take hold again, slowing the series down and morphing it back into the show that captured viewers’ attention in 2021. Since escaping…

At one time in their career, Def Leppard made a statement that a band only releases a live album when they have run out of ideas. I’m not sure the actual count, but we are on maybe the fifth or sixth live album they’ve released now. And based on ‘Drastic Symphonies, I would say they are out of new ideas. With that aside, I’m still a massive fan and buy everything. In fact, back in April 2024 for Record Store Day, I got in line to get the very limited vinyl release of ‘One Night Only: Live at the Leadmill’…

On February 7, the National Institutes of Health (NIH) announced that it will be reducing its negotiated proportion of grant funding that goes to overhead, or “indirect costs,” to 15 percent across the board.  Indirect costs are basically fungible dollars that a research institution can spend however it wants. They are meant to cover all the ancillary services that researchers need, like human resources, information technology, buildings and grounds, and so on. When private foundations give grants, they generally require that 80, 85, or even 90 percent of the funding go to direct services, like research for research grants, so…
