When Henry Ellis-Paul, a lighting and signage designer, committed last September to posting every day on LinkedIn for three months, it is safe to say he did not quite realise what he had signed up for. By the end of December, he was mentally drained. In his final post of his self-imposed challenge, he wrote: “I. Am. Done. I need some time away from LinkedIn.” The last few weeks, he added, had been “bleak”. Speaking to The Sunday Times, Ellis-Paul explained that he undertook the marathon on the professional networking site in an attempt to grow awareness of Precinct Creative, the business he runs with his wife. The pair relocated from Sydney, Australia, to Norfolk last summer and found themselves starting again from scratch. Henry Ellis-Paul, who runs Precinct Creative with his wife Lucy, hit the wall after his social media marathon PRECINCT CREATIVE “Everyone talks about the importance of posting consistently on social media,” he said. “As a young business competing with glossy design studios with big offices and receptionists, we’re tiny. Clients speak directly to us — that’s our selling point. Being visible on social media was a way of communicating that we’re human.” Given LinkedIn’s prominence in

January 22 virtual event "AI in Action: Skills and Strategies for a New Era of Nursing" will share practical, career-relevant guidance nurses can apply now , /PRNewswire/ -- University of Phoenix and LinkedIn will host a free webinar, "AI in Action: Skills and Strategies for a New Era of Nursing," on Thursday, Jan. 22, at 11 a.m. PT / 12 p.m. Arizona / 2 p.m. ET.

We hate them for not liking our LinkedIn posts. Of course, not really. But who hasn’t refreshed their browser repeatedly to see how many likes their latest post has — or hasn’t — garnered, and from whom? While it’s not life or death, it isn’t pure ego either. With layoffs in the U.S. now reaching their highest levels since COVID-19, stakes and tensions are high. The site has become more than a networking tool; it’s a public scoreboard for professional potential, and even one like can make a difference. Low engagement can also trigger a cringey mix of self-consciousness, status anxiety and old social hierarchies ​w​e thought we’d outgrown. We note, but scan past, the loyal few who like everything we do. While we appreciate them, alas, the likes are always greener on the other side, and these can feel akin to taking our cousin to the dance. Intellectually, we get it: It often comes down to timing, feed-crowding or other algorithmic magic. We tell ourselves that what other people think of us is none of our business. Even that person from our professional past who pointedly likes all other mutual connections’ posts ​but ours. (This has itself turned into a

Modern bot detection rarely deals with obviously fake browsers. Most large-scale automation today runs inside browser instances, with patched fingerprints, realistic behavior, and few visible automation artifacts. This pushes detection systems toward weaker, contextual signals rather than single hard indicators. Browser extensions are one such signal. Extensions run in separate execution contexts, but they are not always fully isolated from the page. Many can inject scripts or styles, modify the DOM, expose global objects, or make internal resources accessible to websites. These interactions often leave observable side effects. At the same time, extensions are commonly used in automation stacks. Scrapers, CAPTCHA solvers, and workflow automation tools frequently rely on extensions to simplify or scale abuse. Even when an extension is not actively used on a given site, its presence can still reveal information about the environment. Thus, detecting browser extensions provide valuable context when it comes to fraud and bot detection. In this article, we explain how to detect browser extensions using client-side JavaScript. We start from a real world example and analyze how LinkedIn detects browser extensions. We discuss why this technique works and where its limitations lie. We then contrast it with the stealthier approach used at Castle

Including WhatsApp, TikTok, LinkedIn and more. Hello, social people! This week brings some new tools and features for advertisers looking to make their campaigns easier to build and more user-friendly Let’s take a look and see where these updates can be most beneficial to your social game plan. WhatsApp WhatsApp just added three new group chat features to make conversations easier to manage. Users can now choose a custom “member tag” in each group so others can see their role or context, like “Coach” or “Team Lead.” Users will also be able to turn any word into a text sticker directly from the search bar. Finally, users can set custom reminders for group events so everyone can plan ahead. These tweaks help make group chats clearer and better organized, especially in busy or big groups, the app makers said. Previously, WhatsApp announced a plan to test usernames as displays rather than phone numbers to help improve privacy protections. That change is now being trialed with some users, according to Android Police. The idea is to help protect sensitive data from being easily accessible, the outlet reported. While the feature is still in a beta testing period, WhatsApp plans to roll

Both American job candidates and talent acquisition professionals find themselves between a rock and a hard place as 2026 kicks off. According to new LinkedIn data, more than half of professionals surveyed report being on the hunt for a new job this year, but about 80% say they’re unprepared. At the same time, two-thirds of talent acquisition pros are struggling to find qualified candidates, even as the vast majority say they’re facing greater pressure to do so. AI could ease friction on both sides of the equation, according to LinkedIn’s report out this week, based on surveys of 19,000 consumers and more than 6,500 HR professionals, conducted late last year. Unsurprisingly, AI is squarely on the radar of TA professionals. LinkedIn found that, among those already tapping the tech for recruiting and hiring, nearly 60% say it’s helped them find better-fit candidates, and more than 90% anticipate increasing their use of AI this year. However, gaps often exist between intention and operationalization. “TA—like all functions in every business—is just struggling to absorb the innovation that AI is presenting to us,” talent expert Hung Lee of Recruiting Brainfood said in a recent conversation with Erin Scruggs, vice president and head of
