Visions are now a thing of the past as people no longer carry them. Modern day Liyue was exactly the same except the buildings rose much higher and the streets are busier. Hundreds of years have passed and people are still as devoted as they were to the Gods. Zhongli traced the embossed letters of Rex Incognito on the cover of the book. Zhongli chuckled and went back to the task at hand.įinishing touches and he is finally done. Sometimes it gets really stuffy in here.” Xiao started walking out of the door without waiting for Zhongli’s reply. I’ll wait for you outside and you should air out this place. I will not back down on much older and bigger words though.”
“I only man the library and I am not that much familiar with- what do they call that, ah, millennial lingo. Shouldn’t a librarian know a lot of things?” Xiao chidded playfully. In fact, I’m surprised you don’t know that. “Aether, really knows a lot of things, no?” Zhongli mumbled as he finished tightening the cover of the book he was holding. I think the word fits perfectly,” Xiao chimed in. He learned it in one of his classes and shared it with me this morning. “Aether said it means delivering a large amount of information all at once. You can info dump all you want if you come with us for lunch.” Zhongli tilted his head in confusion. In fact-” Xiao clicked his tongue stopping Zhongli midway. New technologies are being used yearly or even daily just so they can preserve the things we usually see back in Liyue. “Again, modern day Teyvat or modern day humans like preserving things that come from the past. In fact, why are people even interested in this? It wasn’t as popular back in Liyue,” Xiao hummed as he thumbed through the pages of the book. “Why do they even create copies of that book? For sure numerous mistranslations and gaps have appeared through the years. People have really creative minds to even have the ability to imagine all of the things inside that book. It was an old book about his past as an adepti. Xiao grimaced as he saw the title of the book that Zhongli grabbed. "Books hold a lot of history you know? Even after all these years the people of Teyvat still value the past and like to make copies of it," Zhongli stood up and grabbed a small book residing at the corner of one of his shelves, "people also like remembering you." "Rex incognito? They still make copies of this old book? Really? In this day and age?" Xiao flipped through the pages as he scans the familiar passages of an old book that belongs to the past and not in modern day Teyvat. Xiao glanced at the stack of books he is covering. "Can you pass me the tape, please?" Xiao sighed and grabbed the tape for Zhongli anyway going as far as to cut it into manageable sizes for him to work with. "You know that I have to work, right?" Zhongli mumbled as he pushed his glasses back and carefully wrapped a cover around the book he was holding. Xiao made a mental note to grab a box of masks for Zhongli to use once his shenanigans stop getting in the way of them grabbing lunch. He needs a mask at least when he works here all day. The fact that he can survive in such a dire and dusty environment is beyond his comprehension. Xiao waltzed through the stack of books residing in Zhongli's desk and swiped his finger on the nearest pile he can see. Out of 100, my applications with a male name got 10 responses to interview Out of 100, my applications with a female name got 87 responses to interview The female resume got 870% more responses."I refuse to let you stay here in your dusty library for another five minutes," Xiao grumbled "unless you come out with us to eat lunch." Sometimes the male went first, sometimes the female went first. Made a fake resume, and responded to craigslist ads with both male and female names. So then I thought "what about someone looking for working class jobs?" So I decided to focus on restaurants- servers, hosting, etc. Out of 100, my applications with a female name got 45 responses to interview The female resume was 650% more likely to get a callback. Out of 100, my applications with a male name got 7 responses for interview. I'd send it out with my real name, then a few days later (or few days before) with a female name. So I took my CV and changed the name to a female name. It's MUCH better being a woman So I did an experiment, I work in CS and decided to test what the gender bias is. 29.6K 1.3K sent 100 applications as a man and a woman.
