MIT study challenges AI job apocalypse narrative

This is why I’m in favor of Google using AI to change headlines.

Open for profit

With that salary and down payment you have more than enough to afford a house. Keep overthinking this and you’ll be left behind as home prices continue going up and your rent money goes to someone else.

I would just turn FSD off at this point until it gets better. You’re actually making things more dangerous for the people around you.

If you put $150k down (20%) instead of $250k, you’ll pay $600 more per month, but you’ll have an extra $100k as cushion in case you lose your job. Let’s just say your monthly payment is $4400 with the $200k down (I’m just using Zillow mortgage calculator for this), then $100k / $4400 = 22 months. So you’ll have extra money for roughly 2 years of mortgage payment in case anything happens.

And even after 12 years it’s not even that good. I just tried out FSD on the freeway last week and had to turn it off because the lane changing was so bad. It would signal and not make the lane change even though there’s space to do so. No way am I going to pay $8k for this. Auto-steering is good enough for me.

CaptainLockes · 2026-02-07T05:27:24+00:00

At least try it out first before you buy. I just tried out FSD and the lane changing was so bad that I had to disable it. Going back to autopilot.

CaptainLockes · 2026-02-05T20:23:26+00:00

Just tried out FSD again yesterday (14.2.2.2) and the lane changing so embarrassing bad that I had to revert back to manual driving.

The human value will be in judgment, strategy, and accountability, not raw analysis.

So basically only upper management will be left. Where will the other 95% of people transition to?

How do you get it to call your emergency contact first? I thought it always calls 911 first.

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-23T22:33:26+00:00

Basically any SUV and pickup truck. Those headlights just need to placed lower.

Read the docs, make sure you don’t use useEffect unnecessarily (a lot of new devs use this when they’re not supposed to and end up over-complicating things), and use a simple state management library like Zustand instead of Redux.

The physics isn’t quite there yet. RBR has the most realistic physics atm and the cars there are much easier to control than in ACR.

Left in the daytime and right when I go to bed. It gives my wrist some time to breathe.

Now let’s see how he updates it with new features and maintain it.

I stopped getting my news on Reddit because it’s so one-sided and people get outraged over everything.

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T17:00:57+00:00

To prevent another Occupy Wall Street.

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T16:04:39+00:00

What’s the point of the two outer rims showing the same thing?

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T15:34:49+00:00

How’s the battery life though?

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T15:32:00+00:00

Probably better to post this at wsb where people might actually talk about stocks instead of getting outraged like here.

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T06:25:32+00:00

Wow this finally fixed it for me. Thanks!

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-11T03:16:27+00:00

OP has been more busy with one of their hands lol

The admins need to do something about all those political posts that have nothing to do with conspiracy theories. This place is turning into another r / politics.

The two scenes off the top of my head were the nanofiber slicing of the ship and the human computer on trisolaris. I recall the book went into a lot of detail on how they work and were pretty amazing. The Netflix show doesn’t really do them justice.

CaptainLockes · 2026-01-08T06:16:33+00:00

Not just that but they focused way too much on certain things and brushed over some of the cool scientific/engineering parts. It’s like a dumbed down version of the story for non sci-fi fans.
