I absolutely guarantee that 47 is trying to instigate world war.. civil war.. regional conflict.. anything to justify declaring martial law. The one and only goal of this administration is to suspend free elections. It's so obvious we will all be culpable when it happens.
So you think that 90-100% of programming jobs WON'T be replaced by AI within a decade? I realize there are limitations but I think exponential growth is difficult to see within the first three years. We are currently in year three.
Because GTAV made over $700 million last year on 12 year old ip. They are in absolutely zero rush to release a sequel that may or may not flop in an era when it's clear that 90-100% of programming jobs will be eliminated within a decade.
Every programmer they replace with ai now is one less bonus to pay out after release.
Dungeon Crawler Carl. Young people need to learn that all books don't have to be boring and peachy. Sometimes a book can be fun and bat shit insane and that's an ok use of your time. Learn to love reading first, then discover philosophy.
I live in a town of 1000 people. The town where my grocery store is has less than 4000 people. Believe me I get small towns. I live a as deep in Pennsylvania coal county as is possible. District 12 in the hunger games was LITERALLY based on where I live.
The example of the grocery store worker I gave was in my small town Weis. I was trying to recruit the kid to work at the place where I work when he told me what he made and that he was a junior in high school. HE gets paid 30% over minimum.
I think it's important to divide not just wage quality, but employment demographic. I think $10/hr is an absolutely acceptable wage for a kid in high school. That said, a shelf stocker is not the correct employment choice for a single parent. $10/hr IS a living wage for a 16 year old. I've had to make a lot of hard choices as a life long blue collar worker but I've always understood that there are SOME jobs that are not intended for "me".
I think this is where the problem starts. We talk about jobs like every position should be able so support a family. Different jobs are appropriate for different stages of life. A "living wage" means vastly different things in different places.
I'm honestly being serious. What jobs actually pay minimum wage? Positions that get tips don't count. I've had a lot of different jobs over my life and I've never even seen an ad for something that pays $7.25. Fast food makes like $15. Retail makes $10-$12. Hotel attendants make about the same, but also get tips. Hell.. literally last week talked to an actual teenager working in a grocery store stocking shelves and he said he makes $9.50, but he'll me making a dollar more after 90 days. Anyone can EASILY get a job at any warehouse making $15- $18.
I get that these examples still aren't great paychecks, but that's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about $7.25 exactly. Who ACTUALLY pays that? I MIGHT believe some farm workers get minimum. But honestly how many workers are we talking about? And really, how many farms actually W-2 their employees? We all know those are cash jobs.
I agree that wages should be higher, but I think this is one of the last actual free market economy mechanics we have. McDonald's was the quintessential minimum wage job forever but they got with the times and now what was almost a shameful job in the 90's is a very respectable position.
So I want to fight for these workers. But WHO are we fighting for?
Going back to school isn't an age thing. It's a self sufficiency thing. Don't need to work because someone is supporting you or you have enough money to live off of? School is for you. Living paycheck to paycheck? Keep working.
Hmm... What could the difference be between the two shows.... Hmmmmmmm... Nope I can't figure it out. The two shows are identical in every meaningful way. One of the two shows certainly did not contain gratiduous eyeball gluing scenes.
