Post your face when you didn't fall for the meme in the mid 2010s

i didnt because i wasnt programming at that point
unless you count making morrowind mods as programming

didnt the js people you make moolah, though?

I almost fell for it, then I used LLM early on and knew it was gonna replace all devs sooner or later.

nah, just the permanent underclass of low rank webshitters

ai will end up replacing us all, but not the llms

All of this was true for at least a few years roughly 10 years ago thoughbeit

>3d printers
everyone who has a usecase for one seems to have one
i remember back in 2007-ish i had a cousin who was working on 3d printed stuff, trying to find a usecase

back then it was frontier level tech
today half of warhammer dweebs own one to print their minis, it seems
ntm all the makers, closeted engineers, and part time inventors too

i think they pushed too hard, too fast, and 10 years down the line they'll end up hanged from lampposts

a ton of people are gonna die in the meantime, though

You started in the mid 2000s at latest, it's natural that it would work out for you. And I congratulate you.
But is said that by the time you hear about a gold rush, it's already too late, and for the coding gold rush that time was undeniably the mid 2010s.

I only just recently picked up programming but for reasons unrelated to getting a job and whatnot. Feels good not giving a fuck. And I still make art. Nothing in my life has been impeded by AI technology.

>"I know Javascript" will be the new "I have a degree".
This is true though because degrees are worthless now as well.
>>
>>109866198
baste i guess
even if your picrel is actually unsettling
uuncanny valley with predatorial traits pushed to 11 kinda deal
mission accomplished i guess

also programming is a powerful tool if you have ideas
and given youre also an artfag you will probably leverage it at some point bc ideas guy == artfag to at least a modest degree

maybe the relation is even reciprocal
maybe guys who went too much into hard science lack creativity because its just thought patterns they never explored/activated/idk

80% of /g/'s hard autists show this pattern
what if what they need to get to the next level is just pick up playing guitar, or drawing...?

It's calmed down but /g/ has never really taken visual arts seriously in any capacity. This goes for all of it's mediums. It's why I sometimes like to make fun of the retards here for believing AI would replace everyone in every single creative field. Lots of one-sided spitefulness desu.

i really think the solution is as easy as picking up an artistic craft, just for the sake of rounding one's skills
but also de-facto create a situation where the person naturally activates lateral thinking

the more i talk with you the more i think
and the more i think, the more im sure theres something there

yeah, i think everyone should do some artistry at least
even woodworking, or pottery counts ig
now that i think of it, i actually have done alot of manual shit in my life
but stuff like pottery- woodworking, even plastering

recently i had an idea and maybe it tracks:
geothermal, but pretty much everywhere
and build to last
and heres where my plastering exp came in:

the plastering is a layer of soft plaster, followed by a very hard 5-8mm layer of hard finishing mud
followed by 2mm of soft mud

and its an engineered solution
the plaster proper is soft because it acts as an elastic buffer bw the shifts in the walls of a building (thowse who dont know, dont worry, every building shifts because a flat plane doesnt expand in all dimensions by the same amount. its a ratio of 0.01% lets say over 20cm thick vs 5m long. planes shift bc thermal expansion, and a house is engineered for that)

so
a soft layer to insulate against shifts
followed by a hard layer to pretact against impacts
followed by a soft layer that sands easily for shortening the fine tuning process

now:
how bout a hard tube in a soft material
but in the ground, deep underground

and how bout another layer of soft material to insulate against the hard shell failures?
thats the kinda shit that potentially could make electricity for the next 10.000 years, no?
bc all that to preserve the integrity of a pipe where you send water to get a temperature gradient to get useful work, possibly
>>
i intuit theres a way to make even the pumping process passive
cold water has a bigger density than warm one
so when the system will extract useful work, the temp of the water should be lower
so denser water
maybe theres an equilibrium there

so true! AI will automate everything except for whatever (You) personally are doing because you're such a special little person doing special little things.

It was before that. That's when the federal government got in on the shilling but Zuckerberg was already putting posters in my school in 2009.

>>invest $30K/year until 2023
>>at least $1.3M portfolio when you're laid off
If you could pull that off you wouldn't be accepting the pittance of a six figure salary you'd be a 7-8 figure hedge fund manager. That is a 33.6% annual fund growth from interest alone.

>>109866967
that's literally the return from passive indexing a 60/40 US/INT portfolio
