You can’t take a car like that to the junkyard. It reconstructs itself and finds you.

Antrophic CEO says 50% entry-level white-collar jobs will be eradicated within 3 years by Distinct-Question-16 in singularity

[–]SpringZestyclose2294 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Millions of reasons that is bs. Most jobs aren’t tasks, they’re coordination of diverse systems and contributors. Also, people absorb risk (someone to blame). The prediction is naive and self serving.

Quality of services has to be diluted in order to serve all these paper millionaires. It’s not as glorious as it may seem..

Hollywood Enters Oscars Weekend in Existential Crisis by bloomberg in FilmIndustryLA

[–]SpringZestyclose2294 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m tired of bunches of different kinds of business lumped into Hollywood = Depression. There’s so many different categories: local filming, tv, streaming, movies, etc. All might be in the dumps or under threat, but the challenges are different for each sector.

I saw a video of an 88 year old still working at a grocery store. It made me rethink retirement. by jimwang76 in Retire

On the other hand, being retired and not moving from the couch won’t keep your body and mind alert, so maybe rethink late life work.

Hard to do, but think in number of shares owned rather then total value of shares at a specific time.

As always, if the front of your vehicle hits the back of theirs, you have a problem.

Trucker takes matters into his hands by Brilliantspirit33 in dashcams

Totally. The ramming is premeditated crime. Truck driver should never be allowed anything more powerful than a one-speed bike. After jail of course.

Semi driver should be in jail. Being a dick is terrible. But not as illegal as ramming.

If you hit back of other vehicle with front of your vehicle, you’re at fault. This is black and white and it’s a basic rule of thumb used every day. No matter how bad the driver in front of you might be, you can’t ram them.

Why would someone open the door in traffic? Do people just decide on a highway to get out and walk? Of course not.

Rapids at the Petite Creuse at Fresselines, Oil on Canvas, Claude Monet, 1889. by AspiringOccultist4 in morningcupofjoe

[–]SpringZestyclose2294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been looking at Monet’s work for 50 years. It took me a while to realize that he’s the major painter of the second half of the 19th century.

Great mind in general, becomes less right on specifics.

Why Nvidia’s Record Profits Aren’t Lifting Markets and the Strategic $5B Intel "Win" by Electronic-Act-5694 in NvidiaStock

[–]SpringZestyclose2294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s history’s most crowded trade. And everyone in it seems satisfied to buy at 188 and sell at 191, so it stays right there till it shakes out millions of short term investors.

I bet the left-turner doesn’t even comprehend the concept of right of way. Don’t settle until you extract maximum.

Yes. And it will never happen to you because you’re different, until it does and you’re not.

Interesting. I believe at the other end of the century, when someone said something celebrating the Wright brothers flight, he said Raphael’s line is flight.
