This quote is from the article The Analog City and the Digital City published in the Winter 2020 issue of The New Atlantis.
I can attest to the truth of this assessment. I applied for many jobs last Fall via the online portals touted as avenues to employment by the Digital City. I always had the feeling that I was not offering up the correct sacrifice to the GADs (gatekeeping algorithmic directives) and, so, the oracles never responded to me. Or rather they responded with a generically generated email telling me that my resume had been reviewed and the company was going in a different direction. I finally decided to bypass the GADs by sending a physical letter to a physical address in the hopes that a physical pair of eyes would read it. And it worked.
