There's nothing to look forward to.

2018-09-12 18:23:00 UTC  

🤔

2018-09-12 18:23:06 UTC  

I don't particular see the concern over automation

2018-09-12 18:23:08 UTC  

Automation will be the 21st century Pandora's box

2018-09-12 18:23:10 UTC  

The crash of the dollar isn't a nuclear explosion.

2018-09-12 18:23:21 UTC  

I'm supposed to feel silly about my own points, because Rye would like to argue we're fucked either way.

???

2018-09-12 18:23:36 UTC  

Our dollar is valued based off of labor. That's what was being missed

2018-09-12 18:23:44 UTC  

That's what a fiat currency is.

2018-09-12 18:23:44 UTC  

Good

2018-09-12 18:23:46 UTC  

if a machine replaces a janitor, then that janitor just doe something else that is now in demand.

2018-09-12 18:23:53 UTC  

Don't you know money is evil

2018-09-12 18:23:53 UTC  

Was*

2018-09-12 18:23:56 UTC  

Unless there is no demand for his skills

2018-09-12 18:23:58 UTC  

Was valued

2018-09-12 18:24:05 UTC  

Because robots do most of the labor

2018-09-12 18:24:05 UTC  

```then that janitor just doe something else that is now in demand.``` This is the part that's faulty.

2018-09-12 18:24:12 UTC  

This doesn't happen so much anymore.

2018-09-12 18:24:15 UTC  

Less and less of it will.

2018-09-12 18:24:23 UTC  

West Virginia.

2018-09-12 18:24:27 UTC  

Scribble, I'm not going to deny that you aren't doing work. It's more that nobody seems to find your work worth anything.

2018-09-12 18:24:29 UTC  

well his skills have to change to meet the demand, not the other way around

2018-09-12 18:24:35 UTC  

When the car replaced the horse, the car didn't also replace the DRIVER.

2018-09-12 18:24:39 UTC  

This time, the car replaces the driver.

2018-09-12 18:24:41 UTC  

now, if that isn't possible, that's a concern.

2018-09-12 18:24:47 UTC  

It's vastly different from anything we've dealt with before.

2018-09-12 18:24:50 UTC  

however, we are far from that.

2018-09-12 18:24:57 UTC  

for most of the population.

2018-09-12 18:25:01 UTC  

Not far enough away that we can handwave it

2018-09-12 18:25:07 UTC  

(And this isn't literally about self-driving cars, don't be a moron.)

2018-09-12 18:25:17 UTC  

sure, probably hundred or more years away

2018-09-12 18:25:25 UTC  

... And I quote

2018-09-12 18:25:27 UTC  

```(And this isn't literally about self-driving cars, don't be a moron.)```

2018-09-12 18:25:27 UTC  

As a driver, self driving cars are a concern.

2018-09-12 18:25:30 UTC  

Then now is the time to do something about it

2018-09-12 18:25:46 UTC  

Wow I type the shit and... It's like I didn't type the shit.

2018-09-12 18:25:48 UTC  

What a wonderland.

2018-09-12 18:25:51 UTC  

100 years from now whatever youve dont today will have consequences beyond comprehension

2018-09-12 18:25:59 UTC  

It's actually a good example though

2018-09-12 18:26:00 UTC  

not for us
