Itd be cheaper for society to give 90% of the country $1200 a month than for them to work. Crazy huh?
>>1076182991. Society has survived every resource limitation so far (big example: going from hunter-gather to agriculture)2. Innovations in technology open up access to new untapped resources (big example: oil fracking in addition to drilling)3. Innovations in technology optimize usage of resources so that each unit has more yield (big example: vehicle engine efficiency in miles-per-gallon)4. Cultural shifts prioritize and de-prioritize certain resources (big example: going from gold to gold-backed currency)Not only are resources relatively unlimited (the universe is untapped), our use of them also only improves with time, and our decision to use them is flexible enough to radically shift elsewhere.There is no "zero sum game".
>>107618344That's a healthy mindset for protecting yourself today, but it betrays you in your predictions.What happened with the invention of the textile mill? Society adjusted, where handweaving became obsolete and those sources of income directly eliminated, factories opened up, and society became able to mass-produce clothing.What will happen when many white collar jobs are automated? Society will adjust just like it always has, where those hands-on-keyboards workflows become obsolete and those sources of income directly eliminated, workflows will be streamlined, and society will be able to solve problems much more quickly, accurately, and at larger scale.Thinking you can bet against thousands of years of human adaptation because the current moment is bleak FROM YOUR PERSPECTIVE... is stupid. And I'm sure you agree with me to some extent, but you're playing devil's advocate for the purpose of conversation. Just don't fall under the spell of a narrow mindset you're toying with, or you might act on that false understanding and get burned.
>>107613595That'd require companies to be willing to accept a higher tax rate without whining to their paid politicians.
>>107618412All of those end up with most people becoming miserable after the elite figured out how to exploit the technology and oppress others with it.1. Farmers became enslaved through the feudal system.2. Traveling was no longer a nice to have but became a necessity.3. Optimization of resources is a sign of them coming to an end.4. Cultural shifts are just the government forcing people to behave a certain way.The universe may be full of resources but they might as well not exist if they're not accessible. If the zero sum game doesn't exist, population growth would be unlimited. That's not the case now as its slowing down and predicted to go negative.
>>107618798Your post is so incoherent that I'm not even sure where to begin replying to it. I'm saying that it's not a zero sum game because humanity constantly adapts and improves in an unlimited universe, and I provided examples why that's the case. You're disagreeing saying resources are out of reach... while forced to agree about history... yet changing the subject to oppression... making a separate point that advancement is a bad thing... and saying irrelevant things like what happened after innovations... all in one post. I suggest you think *before* you start typing... not while you're typing. Or at least review what you've said so that you don't look as dumb as you currently look for not being able to remain coherent in your reply.

I need a prebuilt keyboard asap, what should I get? Ideally TKL
>>107618695Considering this.
>>107618684Bang for buck, cheapest you can get is going to be 1k polling. 1k is pretty standard at this point. If you are okay with that, keychron Q series, specifically standard, not max or pro, is cheap as shit right now. Most of them are like $50 and 2 years ago they would have been ~$220. As an entry level option you are not going to beat that price for an alu board, so that would be an obvious recommendation from me, even though I think keychron is boring and just ok in terms of quality.

>>107616807This. If we can imagine it, it will be possible. And things are getting more possible more faster than ever. Just look at the graph (line goes up). It's literally exponential.
Wow, you've said the quiet part out loud!
AI will solve all your problems because you won't be alive by the time it's able to.
Software engineering will be a solved problem by the end of the decade
>>107617569Just two more weeks until AGI
>>107609658We could solve it by the end of next week if we just allowed Pakistan and China to exterminate the 2 billion Indian Hindu rape rat hordes. Otherwise once we "solve" software engineering, those 2 billion Hindu rape rats will just try to slither into the next easy white collar profession and destroy that too, and on and on until all of human civilization is destroyed.
>>107609658are any of those actual software engineering tasks?

>>107618703...the links between the Puzzle Hunt (university quest) and Wikileaks go deeper. One of the most challenging aspects of the Puzzle Hunt is data sifting; a typical puzzle will start with a lot of raw data, which the puzzler must sort through in order for the puzzle to make sense. Wikileaks has similar problems with raw data: since all leaks are completely anonymous, Wikileaks has no way of verifying the authenticity or usefulness of a leak without further analysis. The data contained in a leak must be sifted if the leak is to reveal its true worth...https://www.melbunimathsstats.org/_files/ugd/28c6de_a4b96dbdb844446886dc676573c89632.pdf

>basically everything I'm uncomfy with work at is basically>"I'd do X Y and Z at home, but this system costs more to merely exist for a day than my life (objectively speaking), so I'm not comfortable attacking it with my usual hick methods.">boss tells me to fuck with it anyway>goes fine the couple times it's had to happenhow do i start taking my own advice and go about touching stuff wrt "invasive surgery"I would love to quote at my juniors at another job>if you stay on the defensive, you'll never become the real thing>the hungrier you are, the better>the more reckless the situation, the betterEverything's in place. How do I grow up? It feels like so long since I was a rookie before, and I was so much braver but so less powerful then. I'm still the new guy, and that is not the problem. I am confident in what few skills I have; I didn't lie in my interviews. I'm a rookie again, but knowing that I don't know shit as a real adult now, and knowing how touchy big corporations are and how systems are and shall be as designed, I dunno, I'm not fucking trauma team I don't have liability insurance for this. If it were at the unit I'd be like "Fuck it, I told you do do it, so tell them I told you to do it" but now that I have someone who says that, it's not that I don't feel safe doing it, I feel like something might be disabled forever and now regardless of liability or whatever it's a me problem forever.
And it's not like I'm uncomfortable changing a card or whatever, but a lot of this junk is far beyond end-of-life. If my ESD strap fails and there's a jolt, it's over. If one pin somewhere bends, it's over. I don't worry so much that I'll do it, but things happen, and the nature of repairs with limited parts makes things dumb. If one little bracket is found to be stripped in one screw hole, it's not like we can just order a new one or even throw some bondo in there. At home I would proudly drive a screwdriver in there and use a die set to cut new thread. Maybe 3d print some shit at the library. Maybe just use some dipshit "mending plate" in its place. In a real company, you can't do that.At home I would gladly attack any device with any tool I have; even at work, it's not about maintaining SLAs or pretending like I'm not an embarrassing lunatic. If something is stripped, or some card failed, it can't just be so easily replaced with an equivalent. hick shit has no place in commercial venture. niggas got contracts and shit, and occasional inspections. I just want things to work, and to be let do what I have to do to make things work.
>>107618737I was in the navy; I was notable for "ammo conservation" despite being an amazing shot
I've only not made top score among the section at a range day once. I missed literally one shot, and while I don't distinctly remember it, the C7 has a problem where the trigger doesn't reset properly so the next pull is always inconsistent. I dunno if it's a general AR platform thing or just the C7, but I don't like it. I put clean holes in dimes at 20m with a .177 and am accurate enough with a pistol for combat. Unfortunately, I'm a huge pussy and have never taken a rifle combat shooting course anyway and am horrendously out of shape, and they only draw snipers from infantry despite how far you can walk without complaining, so it's IT for me. They probably have homing lasers these days anyway
