Every job replaced by automation is a NEW PERSON looking for a job on the same market as everyone else.
Job seekers get more and more crowded.
heres the difference
Engineering as a study is:
"Build a machine with only 5 wires, and an engine"
Engineering as a general trade
"Fake it 'till you make it" like any trade really 😛
and no, not THAt literally
@Scribblehatch yeah, that's true
I'm shocked that people aren't being realistic about what's happening.
I'm concerned about all the soon to be unemployed truckers
This is not a car replacing the horse situation.
Yes.
Hence they should find a backup skill to replace their job with,
And i know its not easy, but life isn't easy
It's one of the only jobs that you can rely on to pay you enough, that you can get without much prep and expense.
They should, but that doesn't fix the problem
Every job needing very specific requirements and years of experience. Why is no one surprised things have gotten so BAD out there with the amount of unemployed?
And WHY do people keep misreading the stats?
Unemployment only accounts for the people still looking.
full AI run post-scarce society will fix the problem
Until that, you'll always have problems and a need to fix it
It could fix the problem, but we have to choose for it to without things going to shit in the mean time
If you're living paycheck to paycheck already..
You have NO BACKUP.
living paycheck to paycheck doesn't mean you're working 16/7
people rioting and razing all robotics labs until robots are outlawed could also fix the problem
Why did he just say 16/7.
16 hours per day, 7 days per week
Yes.
aka, work and sleep
Why 16/7
cuz 24/7 is impossible for the human body
8 hours is the recommended minimum sleep
I didn't say anything about hours in the day.
Why did you?
"There's more to it than that thing you didn't say!"
you say people who live paycheck to paycheck don't have any options
Unless they work all day and the only time they don't work is sleep
they'll have some time to self-learn / practice / find some way to improve themselves
Classes cost money.
you don't need classes to self-learn
Self-learn. Yeah, like an employee will give a shit without credientials.
ARe you off your nut
Remember that time Moe ran a hip hop dancing for self defense class?
Are you SERIOUSLY suggesting people hire based on self-learning?
