This is more on the depressing side.

With the amount of tracking from our devices, searches, and so forth, does anyone ever see an uptick in tragic news when you click on an article to get more information about it? (similar subjects)

Oh, I'm sure that happens. If you just happen to read news stories about some event somewhere, you will start to see related things popping up in your Google News feed, and I suppose in other places. If I want to look up something kind of random I'll sometimes open an incognito window and Google it there, just so I won't be seeing stories about for the next week. What a world.

Yeah, you're probably onto something. They way some of these algorithms work is that they'll push stuff to you even harder if you already showed interest in content that has similar themes. Like if I watch a couple of videos on learning guitar then my YT feed will get flooded with that type of content. I can only imagine it's the same for articles that get you to click on them. They adapt frighteningly quick too

I understand shopping, but to get depressing news on certain subjects is wild. For context, I live near Philly, but the news came from a friend in FL.

Oh 100000%. There’s money to be made in trafficking bad news. That’s always been a thing. See “Yellow Journalism” it’s hard to stay informed without being depressed by the bad news all the time.

I am currently unemployed (but looking) an opportunity to consult has potentially fallen into my lap. Before I shut it down for a lack of experience, I want to know if it's something that I can even do. It's a very very small company, not even 3 FTE. But they are looking for someone to come in, create a Handbook(I can do that), provide benefits, etc.

Is that difficult to implement? I can't imagine it being so, but I don't want to set myself up to fail.
