I pointed out the whole ‘Gate’ coincidence to my wife just last night.

Unbelievable ha. Wonder how many applied?
tl;dr:
OceanGate Expeditions listed a job posting for a submersible pilot on its web site while a frantic search and rescue mission was underway for five missing tourists in the doomed Titan bound for the Titanic wreckage site. Social media was abuzz on Friday after screenshots of the ad, which was posted before the Coast Guard announced on Thursday that all five people aboard the Titan had perished, were widely circulated. OceanGate CEO Stockton Rush was among the five people who died in the Titan submersible. The passengers included 61-year-old OceanGate boss, Rush, as well as Titanic specialist Paul-Henri Nargeolet, UK billionaire explorer Hamish Harding and Pakistani billionaire and mogul Shanzada Dawood and his 19-year-old son, Sulaiman.

I am a bot in training. Feedback
Good bot
Wait, is that even a thing here?
There was one earlier this year or at the end of last year which provided invidious links for YouTube post, but then I stopped seeing it around. Apparently now there’s many bot’s being utilized or will soon be from the sound of it.
