Sure, as long as the new jobs pay at least as much as the old jobs and society is willing to pay for the retraining. In that case I imagine there would be lots of people willing to…

Sure, but individuals pay the cost too. Society also has an obligation to make them whole or to at least give them accountability.

How can it be restitution if it doesn't help the victims?

You might want to read some more Marxist analysis. TLDR: Eventually the real owning class decides they no longer need to pretend that the professional class is one of them.

In my most recent job I was definitely under that sort of timer.

Presumably that's because in the 40k game, humanity has outlawed AI. ^_^

The biggest thing that I want is a way for ADA to realistically apply to invisible disabilities like autism. Although in theory people with invisible disabilities can get accomodat…

Yet even if we accept your premise, he is still worlds better than the alternatives.

I think that a lot of that may come from the degree to which "contribute to an open source project" has been the advice for almost any job search problem. If people who are just lo…

At the very least there is no doubt in my mind that he would have used it to create something intellectually provocative! Maybe something in the spirit of "Pierre Menard, Author of…

That's a great point! I wonder if the difference might be that, as you mentioned, Hirst's lack of direct involvement was part of his artistic message. I wonder "work where the medi…

My understanding is that part of the problem with mixing caffine with alcohol is that it can prevent someone from passing out; which is the body's defense mechanism against alcohol…

The issue is that word processors and photoshop replace the traditional technique of art. AI replaces the expression of art. Since the invention of the camera made representation t…

Off topic, but you name is somewhat ironic. Argentina's most famous writer, Jorge Luis Borges, built much of his career on the idea that writing is inextricably and inherantly link…

They are quoting John 1:14. At the beginning of his book, John describes Jesus as being the personified word of God. That was likely an early example of the influence of Neo Platon…

I know there've been efforts to scrape information that MAGA is trying to purge from government websites.

At this point I'd be completely fine with just going by feel. It would be better than what we have now.

A lot of Christians argue that it does say exactly that. In Genesis 2:15, God tells Adam to care for the planet: The Lord God took the man and put him in the garden of Eden to work…

How do they tend to clock in on the doomer scale? I'm trying to find alternatives to the regular news that don't feed my doomerism.
