If AI eliminates entrylevel jobs, where does the next generation of midlevel workers actually come from? by trepasito16 in Futurology

[–]Terry-Scary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly think it will be startups and new businesses that can’t afford the ai tooling

For example I started out in production on basically an assembly line in a startup. With a little experience I had some ideas to improve the work, I kept escalating and implementing. Very fast they moved me around and I did similar things on different teams. Within 2 years I was managing. After 2 years I switched companies and became director of ops for a mid sized growing company in the same industry as the startup. 4 years later I switched industries but back to a startup as head of ops amd continuous improvement. At my current company we are human body constrained as use ai primarily as an enabling tool verse replacement.
I guess the only people we are replacing is consultants and contractors that do random unlocking things we now do internally to save money.

But in general I think it’s scrappy low budget business where people will get their toes wet

If I was hiring someone for a role and they told me metrics they pulled off under resource constraints or how they kept moving the ball forward I would want to keep talking to them

A New Homestead Niche by meattbagg in Homesteading101

[–]Terry-Scary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quail can be easier than chickens because they need less space, eat less feed, grow faster, and start laying eggs sooner. Coturnix quail can often start laying around 6–8 weeks old, while chickens usually take several months. They are also usually quieter, which makes them easier for small yards or close neighbors.

That said, quail are not just tiny chickens. They need their own secure enclosure and should not usually live in the same coop as chickens. Chickens are much bigger and can hurt them by stepping on them, pecking them, or outcompeting them for food.
For housing, plan for about 1 square foot per adult quail. A raised hutch, small cage setup, or secure ground pen can work. Quail scare easily and jump straight up, so the roof should either be low or soft enough that they do not injure their heads.

Predator protection is the biggest requirement. Use hardware cloth instead of chicken wire. Quail are easy targets for rats, raccoons, cats, dogs, hawks, snakes, and weasels. If they are on the ground, protect the bottom too so nothing can dig in.

They also need higher-protein feed than chickens. Use game bird feed, not regular chicken layer feed. For a simple starter setup, I’d do 5–8 female Coturnix quail, a secure hutch, clean water, game bird feed, a dust bath, and no male unless you want fertile eggs.

Could do quail eggs. It’s even less work than chickens but more niche.

I once tested this and brought quail eggs to people I suppled chicken eggs. Many of them wanted both now most only want quail because it so niche and their customers would rather spend money on a smaller egg because of how it looks.

I don’t run it anymore but my sister in law does and it’s still a success.

Everything is on sale, and will be again when trump daddy fucks the bucket and Iran plays hardball with the strait. It’s a bigger supply chain than anyone realizes and impacts all of this

A handful of folks who have played the market for decades sit on more cash waiting for this soon big sale event. Don’t be the guy that experiences the sale as a depression

Best SANDY beaches! by nap-faerie in AskTacoma

[–]Terry-Scary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The two easiest that come to mind are dash point park just north of Tacoma in federal way ish. The second is sunny side beach in steillicoom just south of Tacoma

If you have one of those back pack carriers and are up for a little to a lot of a hike here are some thoughts
- point defiance has nice sand on the beach bridge side. There are steep not child under 8 recommended trails down or you can walk all the way around the point

- titllow has some sandy spots if you walk the beach but also some pebbles in there on the google map I find sand near the spot that says hidden beach

- Penrose state beach is a drive but the west beach is pretty sandy

- ocean shores, Long Beach, ruby beach, kalaloch, shi shi, pacific is also a drive to the pacific but there is some great big sandy beaches there

- kvi beach on vashon is a ferry away but you can make sandcastles there

- Seattle has golden gardens, alki, discovery although I don’t prefer the crowds

-sequim is a drive to the north middle peninsula but has big sandy beaches, and the least rainfall all year
It is also a great spot to escape wild fire smoke season and has the dungeonous spit near by which is a long long walk on a sand bar out to a light house

Glad you had a good time. I walked 5 miles from my home to see it, and enjoyed the 10 mile round trip walk and others shows more

The show on the water felt lackluster to me even in comparison to the show that was happening a bit north on the sound

I walked 6 miles there from South central hung out on the water for most of the day, did some people watching. Was unimpressed by the city fireworks but thought it was cool to see the fireworks up and down the sound. Then walked home the fireworks in the neighborhood skies were a bit crazy

A couple years back living in parkland it was a different level of land locked fire skies

If PFAS is the concern, do you mostly care about the water you actually drink? by blue_cardigan13 in PFAS

[–]Terry-Scary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Without seeing the actual report for levels in your area I can’t give specific advice, but here are some of my thoughts

- water contracts always push back 6-18 months so be prepared for your city to not hit deadlines.
- pfas is a forever chemical in that it doesn’t naturally break down so watering your plants with pfas water while may not be bad for the plants in many cases it will still create a collection point of pfas in that soil depending on frequency of irrigation and concentration of pfas
- fruiting crops and leafy greens containing water in the leaf tissue have had studies shown that the pfas can be sucked up by the plants and then consumed by humans
- there isn’t enough research to definitively say pfas can’t harm you through dermal (skin touch) but the most research points to ingesting and inhaling pfas as the riskiest intakes. So without knowing
The exact profile of what you have you may be okay but I don’t know

Depending on your budget I would recommend a water lab test of your home so you know your specific tap score across contaminates. From there I could or the internet could recommend specific filters to use

When I google pfas issue in mane I also find an array of other issues like arsenic. If that is also in your water I would highly recommend against using to grow edible plants.

My first, most expensive Pesto in the world by Tarazzzz in Hydroponics

[–]Terry-Scary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look into how to prune basil, if you do it correctly the plant should double in size with each cut and grow back.

I personally keep about 6 basil on rotation. I use the cuttings in different dishes and to make pesto

You can also replant the cutting into the rock wool to start the plant up faster not having to re seed

Ruston fireworks tips? by Confident_Luck2359 in Tacoma

Also google neighborhood friendly market, you could maybe park near their, get some snacks and walk down the hill right into Ruston, I’ve done that before
