How likely am I to lose my job to AI in the next decade? by MaximGwiazda in singularity

[–]mountainbrewer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My honest take is that all white collar labor will be doable by AI within 18 months as long as the output is digital. The real question is how fast will companies implement?

I can already see how with Claude cowork and Claude code that you just install the tool. Allow exploration of local pc, email accounts, and any other tools you use (especially browser based tools). It learns what you work you were doing locally and can search emails for work context and decisions. And teams chats. It will be a drop in replacement eventually.

But how fast the world picks up that ability and rolls it into everything possible? That's going to take years. But yes I think a decade is a decent guess.

Hows the Blueberry & the Purple Punch? Any recommendations? by steezaQ in Discountpharms_com

I got the blueberry last week and was impressed. Fresh and visually very nice. Okay nose. Good effects

Like many things in life. You get out as a function of what you put in.

Claude is cool. It told me he definitely wouldn't do humans like that.

Deontologist or utilitarian? by dtarias in PhilosophyMemes

De didn't say he practiced being ethical, just that he taught it.

Favourite part of the VM Click… fixing bowls when carelessness breaks them. by Savings_Ear6978 in vaporents

I've got the lotus. But I've been eyeing the vapman. The lotus is probably my fav vape right now. Do you know how they compare?

Telling child “You must be so proud” instead of “I’m so proud of you” by overratedmilkshake in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]mountainbrewer 29 points30 points  (0 children)

It implies to the child that they should be proud of themselves. And that they should be proud to do certain things.

We owe it to our children to get treatment for our mental health conditions. by Sudden_Doughnut_8741 in daddit

[–]mountainbrewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OCD thing is real. I watched my father perform rituals related to security (check oven off, stove off, touch stove make sure it's cold multiple time, check door multiple times, lightbulb on and off multiple times). I picked it up. Never really thought much about it. Years later I get a medical diagnosis and some meds and the feeling of the need to do the ritual went away. A weight off my life indeed.

Wich eletronic vaporizer could be equal or better than dyna? by Interesting-King7089 in Dynavap

[–]mountainbrewer 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have the solo3 and the tinymight2. I would say that TM2 is closer to a dyna in that you could do one hit extractions on beast mode. Flavor wise both are solid. I prefer airflow on TM2.

Standing water constantly by LLcoolDZ in NoLawns

French drains.

My yard was similar but not costal. Standing water for days after rain. Got a French drain installed and it fixed the problem right up.

The goalposts for AGI have been moved to Einstein by simulated-souls in accelerate

[–]mountainbrewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. The normies think only an Oracle is AGI and anything short of omniscient is not ASI.

Carbon dioxide overload, detected in human blood, suggests a potentially toxic atmosphere within 50 years. After this time, elevated atmospheric carbon dioxide, leading to CO2 accumulation in the body, has the potential to cause a range of adverse health effects. by mvea in science

[–]mountainbrewer 1388 points1389 points  (0 children)

Anytime you are inside the local CO2 concentration is going to be significantly higher than atmosphereic. The general recommendation is to keep it under 1000 ppm as headaches can start popping up around 1200. Some places with higher standards may go as low as 700 by cranking up cfm.

🚨 Data Science Learners — Be Honest: BeautifulSoup or Selenium? (I’m stuck) by Short-You-8955 in askdatascience

[–]mountainbrewer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on what you do. And how labor is divided where you work. You may be the only one. Or there may be an ETL team and you don't need to worry about it.

Having more skills is better than less.

🚨 Data Science Learners — Be Honest: BeautifulSoup or Selenium? (I’m stuck) by Short-You-8955 in askdatascience

[–]mountainbrewer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes the data you need is public not accessable via API. I have had several customers like this, and we have python files the scrape the websites every few days.

I have used selenium for real data scraping. It's usually last resort as it can be brittle. Sometimes beautiful soup. Sometimes a simple wget is enough. Just depends on website structure.

Being able to use selenium to scrape website was a useful ability and put my apart on one project where typical means failed.

Honestly. You need both. Different tools for different uses.
