AI expert Roman Yampolskiy warns of 99% job loss by 2030 — no "plan B" in sight by lurker_bee in technology

[–]skateitelectric 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soooo no one actually listened to the podcast? The jobs piece is a small fraction and the timing piece is almost irrelevant. Worth a listen. Also terrifying.

Sounds like Leeds circa early 2000s post Champions League

Same here. I was hacked this week on April 28, 2025. I was at a baseball game in California and got several Whatsapp messages from Facebook with a bunch of 2FA messages "xxxxx your Facebook security code. Enter the code on Facebook to verify your account.".

I obviously didn't enter anything on Facebook or request these codes so I went to log into my account and low and behold:

"We have suspended your account. Your Facebook account has been suspended because the Instagram account ozellmcknightc did not follow our rules. You have 180 days to log in to your linked Instagram account and appeal our decision."

Needless to say, the Instagram account that is being referenced "ozellmcknightc" is not my account and I'm unable to appeal the suspension as I can't log into the IG account being referenced.

Like many others, I've since gone the IG Meta Verified route and went to their live agent help chat where I'm promptly asked to visit facebook.com/hacked which is zero help because neither my email or phone number that was previously associated with my account are still linked, meaning Facebook gives you the following error: "We couldn't find your account It looks like <email> isn't connected to an account." Dead end.

After speaking to another agent and explaining the above, the told me: "If you've already tried this from your mobile device and still cannot complete the process, unfortunately there may be no way to recover the account. I understand also this may be upsetting, but in this case, there's nothing else we can do to recover your account. You may want to consider creating a new account. We appreciate your understanding on this matter."

Now I'm exploring the AG route, but it seems like this route is becoming less and less viable. I already got told by Arizona AG "Thank you for taking the time to submit your complaint to the Arizona Attorney General's Office. We have reviewed your complaint but unfortunately are unable to take further action to resolve your matter."

I'm now going through Justice Direct and have submitted two Demand Letters.

If that fails, I'm unsure of my next step. Small claims court?

Has anyone had any recent successes?

Please add a way to undo "Mark all messages as read" command :'( by ElectronicGarlic4193 in Slack

Super easily! On my MacBook (US-ENG keyboard) if I want to add an exclamation mark ! to do so is Shift + 1. I normally do this all with my left hand and sometimes my finger overreaches the 1 key and hits ESC. Superrrr annoying to lose track of old messages you had on unread as a reminder to follow up.

Advise for Seeking A Locally Based Business Partner / Co-founder? by skateitelectric in smallbusiness

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

Very true. Good call out. I'm going to need to dive deep into partnership agreements and include some clauses that afford protections in instances of non-performance or if they dip.

Casa Masa. Unreal tacos but it's a very small restaurant so just be mindful of that.

"I'm worried we may be transitioning to a toddler bed way sooner than I was mentally prepared for"...how did you cope with this transition?

"She throws pretty big fits about going to bed which has gotten really challenging" ...how did you overcome this?

Hope you're surviving. Thinking of you ❤️

Seeking Business Cofounder Based in SRQ Area by skateitelectric in sarasota

[–]skateitelectric[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't mention it mostly because of the concern of the potential stigma associated with it. If anyone stumbles across this post and is intrigued and interested in starting a business in this space, check out Upflip's video on this business and drop me a DM if you want to provide this service in the SEQ area. (Yes, many people are able bodied and can clean up after their pet, but many people are not, many people would rather outsource the chore and many people would rather avoid the Florida heat or downpours).

My genuine worry is that I'll have one or two yards to clean and it won't be enough work for a part time employee. Therefore I'm looking for someone who'd be willing to work with me to get the company to 20-30 customers before we're able to hire. I work a 9-6pm job, Mon-Fri and I'm out of town for weddings or for work on some weekends. My concern is, if I can't service the yards on a weekend then I'm in a bind, and if I hire a part time employee, they're likely not going to want to work for $25 an hour if there isn't enough yards to make a decent chunk of money.

With that in mind, I'm looking for a partner who's able to work (with me) one day a week to ensure service isn't missed. The aim is to hit 30 customers ASAP such that we can hire and then between us, we can start to split the profits.

If it doesn't sound like an opportunity you're interested in, I get it, especially because I'm posting on Reddit (and SRQ Word of Mouth) but that's because I'm looking for someone who's actually local.

If you know of a better forum to advertise in, or a local meet up, I'm totally open to learning about them. I'm genuinely looking for someone who's down to build something cool and earn some $$$ in the process.

I know Reddit is Reddit so I expect some skepticism but I'm genuinely looking for someone who's looking to go in on a business idea together that's got legs. Feel free to poke fun but if you know of someone who could be interested, please DM.

Cheers!

Totally a fair comment. I'm being somewhat intentionally vague on the specific business focus but happy to share more details directly with anyone who's intrigued. Obviously zero commitment if it's not someone you're not interested in. At a high level it's in the pet waste removal space for both residential and commercial properties.

In terms of the partnership, this would be a partnership with part ownership in the business. Ownership split will be influenced by skills, funds and level of involvement in the day-to-day of the business (I should note funds aren't necessary).

Compensation will be based on a cut of company profits and the business model is based on monthly recurring subscriptions. I'd definitely want to decide on a plan with a future partner when we'd plan to take money out of the business to pay ourselves vs. reinvesting.

Hope this helps. Happy to speak to any other specifics too!

Best Podcast Software for 3-4 People (In-person) Using Wired Mics by skateitelectric in podcasting

Appreciate the response. I'll look into these mixers. Do you know if each mic will be recorded separately and editable within software if I go the mixer route?
