it's your life, you decide. You can also decide not to give it meaning.

Here "replace" doesn't mean "being able to do the same job". It means you get fired. Automation in most fields never even tried to get close to a level of quality comparable to what a human can do, but it was enough to displace a majority of workers.

The author is a machine learning engineer, so he's perfectly aware of the limits of whatever is called AI. The point is to make those limits irrelevant by lowering the expected level of quality, as it happened with textile, food, and so on.

Here I see a lot of people who have been served badly prepared game. For any meat that tastes too gamey, if you're not sure how to prepare it, there are some tricks that work pretty much everytime:

  1. Make an infusion of ginger by boiling it for half an hour. Lot of ginger, the water must taste spicy. Then soak the meat in it overnight. It won't really live a gingery taste in the meat, so it's good for most preparations.
  2. Don't roast, but braise. Red wine, juniper berries, rosemary, cloves, bayleaves, and laurel are good with most wild animals and musky meats: deer, wild boar, mutton, rock goat, etc etc. Sheepmeat and goatmeat can also go with a lot of cumin, turmeric, chili, cinnamon and cardamom, if you want a more central Asian vibe.

Broke my elbow twice: one time at like 7 sliding down a hill and one time at like 13 doing a overhead kick playing soccer. Slit the skin of my head open at 8 after being pushed by a classmate against the base of a decorated column. Lot of blood, many stitches.

Most people don't know they are allowed to dream, let alone in which direction. While this might not connect with you, there are millions of tech workers who have zero perspective on what's out there.

I would argue the title implies "leaving the tech industry", and in the beginning it says the article is for who wants to still work with the same skillset, but outside of the tech industry as in the companies who produce technology for profit. Probably only the tech co-op part can be said to be still within the tech industry

Futurism.com is garbage. I think it's quite a distorted narrative: the vetting is extremely invasive, with regular face scans and passport verifications at sign up. Then maybe a lot of shit was still going through, but this narrative suggests that these companies are not at the forefront of extremely invasive worker surveillance, which is demonstrably false given the wave of class actions and privacy violation proceedings they are subject to.

protestantism for techbros. Boring. No machine will come and save you, just go to therapy instead.

Also the future is built, not predicted.

The market doesn't reward quality.

Money is not a measure of power. Power is always relational, positional. You can position yourself better and build relationships using money, but you can also waste a lot of it to gain very little power.

It's ultimately about what actions you enable for the people who side with you, and money is a great enabler, but if we are talking about private entrepreneurs, usually the vast majority of their wealth cannot be freely allocated to political projects, but it's blocked to generate further capital. The portion you decide to spend to garner political, social and mediatic capital, and how you spend it, matters more than your total wealth.
