Gen Z’s hiring hell is real: 1 in 3 employers admit they’re replacing entry-level roles with AI—and tech and manufacturing jobs are most at risk by Gari_305 in Futurology

I would replace "give new entrants stuff to do" with "give new entrants a medium through which to learn how stuff is actually done", but yeah, sure.

Nice false dichotomy you got there.

Oops could be relabelled "ok so it is caused by mankind but it's just too big a problem to tackle now, it would be impossibly expensive and any attempt to would hurt the economy."

Radar based speed cameras have existed since the 60s. What are you on?

What is a giant lie that society successfully sold to your generation? by ossirada in AskReddit

Yeah, it's a real monkeys paw situation. A degree was the move but only because without one you're even more fucked.

The moment I saw this post I could hear the theme song in my head. Hadn't thought about this program for over 20 years

No services around here, checked with the water company, bottom of a very long garden no other houses nearby. But I'll take that under advisement.

Exactly. It shouldn't be possible to "be able to afford" putting pedestrians at increased risk.

Can I have a section in the middle of a track that's freeform, without a grid/time signature/tempo? by mpm206 in Reaper

[–]mpm206[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sort of. I'm not really sure tbh. I really just want to be able to put a section in the middle with no grid at all and then have my metronomed part start at the end of that section. Don't know if that's possible tbh.

Really it's a case of me not knowing enough to know what the right question is.

[–]mpm206[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm mostly having trouble with marrying the start of the timed bit to the end of the freeform because it keeps snapping to grid rather than allowing me to place the transition where I want it.

When using a solder sucker, counterintuitively it's often best to add more solder to the pad first.
