So only people who have slick enough social skills to bullshit their way through that will get hired. The quiet unassuming engineer who spend their free time programming will get passed on and the extroverted engineer who spent their free time partying will get hired.
Are you talking about a fan that simply blows outside air in? Wouldn’t that basically fight what the HVAC is doing? AFAIK the only real solution is an ERV / HRV, and they are extremely expensive (like $10k in my area)
The vast majority of paid writers are just summarizing other people’s thoughts. Like people writing marketing blog posts are just writing what the CEO tells them to, etc.
I honestly don’t understand why VR hasn’t caught on. Every time I let someone try my Quest for the first time their minds are blown. It’s very cool technology and seems like the next logical step for video games.
You’re relying on the hope that the people with money and power would be willing to share that with everyone else. They wouldn’t. Our entire economic system is based on the principle that people are inherently selfish.
I don’t think it’s “extreme privilege” to not notice a price increase of maybe $3? I could see it if you’re living in extreme poverty but anyone middle class and above shouldn’t waste mental energy on things like that
I find comments like this weird, I never think about purchases that small. I honestly have no idea how much I pay for tortillas normally but $7 would not even be a blip on my mental radar
Everything I have worked for is worthless. The programming knowledge I sacrificed my prime years to learn is obsolete. Everything I earned I used to buy a house which is declining in value day by day. I wonder if I would be happier and more successful if I didn’t take the responsible path in life.
Lol the cope here is unbelievable. Let me guess, the people that are “just overhead” and “reduces time for main work” are everyone else, not you, right?
So what if the money is stored in assets? I don’t think anyone believes arguments like “your basic intuition is wrong, studies have been done, I can’t explain it to you but trust the experts” anymore since COVID.
All of you should stop posting your knowledge of programming online (Hacker News, Stack Overflow, Reddit, blogs, etc) unless you want an AI to absorb it and take your job from you.
