Konrad Johnson is doing exactly what he’s being paid to do

Boxer guy was getting on with Dick in more ways than one

Cool, so we’ve all been exposed to measles now.

Fully agree that this is a tool to use. But new tools eliminate jobs throughout human history. ICE eliminated a ton of blacksmithing jobs when you didn’t need so many horseshoes. Excavators eliminated groups of workers physically digging ditches.

Progress is good, it helps society, but it has a danger to leave behind the people which helped to create the system that eliminated their need. There needs to be a safety net or a transitional plan for these people to ensure we all continue to succeed. That doesn’t really exist in our current capitalist environment.

Anyone who knows anything about labour relations knows that AI is a front line worker replacement. You aren’t killing all jobs, but how about you tell me the % of workers in the field that won’t be needed to create blocks of code which people get to review moving forward.

Theyll change the whole workflow on you if it saves them money.

Wait wait wait

The white South African guy whose family profited during because of apartheid is RACIST?

Are you sure about this?

But I was told any option but unhindered capitalism was pure communism.

Jesus, politicians need to grow a pair and actually help people. What do you need to do to convince them?

Someone’s seen this episode before.

Two groundings in less than 5 years? Boeing is trading lives for share price. Hopefully the company dies as an example of corporate greed.

Sounds like we have 3 parties under the guise of 2. The right can splinter, this is good.

Can we fast forward to the Koolaid part yet?

One single factor is never the source of a problem. It can be both things causing this.

Technology changes too fast today to plan for a 30 year career doing the same thing in a constantly changing world. Anyone with the skillet should take this as a beacon and pivot, whether keeping the skills fresh and branching out into new ventures with them (i.e. spend some time thinking, get a few peers, make a new product or service to sell to others instead of being cheap labour for someone else’s idea), or dropping the skills for another one that isn’t likely to get pulled out from under your feet suddenly.

I think we’ll need plumbers for a while still, and you can make over $100k/year never touching a shitty pipe.

Benjy, you’re playing this great bud. Not only did you directly fund the massacre of your own people, now you’re featuring their snuff films for your fantasies.

The world stands with you somehow.

You fucking lunatic piece of shit.

Tax? That’s not how you spell EAT

Drugs and alcohol take a big hit when people can access weed legally. Weed can keep some people away from more destructive intoxicants. Those companies don’t want to give people the choice if they can avoid it.

Planes nosediving because they incorrectly think they’re stalling, bolts randomly falling out of critical hardware… sounds like I’m not flying Boeing anytime soon.

It’s not that we didn’t listen, it’s that people who would be dead within 40 years made decisions to horde short term wealth instead of ensuring the world would continue for more than a generation or two more. They used their excessive resources to convince people that there wasn’t a problem so that they could keep more money.

Generations of inbreeding will do that to you.

Kinda looks like a dictator grasping at the straws of power.

If it walks like a duck, eats like a duck, quacks like a duck…

They can, they did, you don’t fucking matter to them, they’re ok with you suffering and dying.

Do what you want with that info
