Comment Gets rid of all internships (Score 1) 15
Because that is the level of our best AI - an intern.
If an intern can do it, an AI can do it.
The good jobs still exist and will likely always exist.

As an American, I an assure you that our ability to totally screw up our health is supreme. We will always find a way to become obese, no matter what they do with the time.
Prioritize engagement over everything else.
It is the reason why they:
are generous to bad actors, not dumping them at the first sign.
encourage click bait.
encourage quick low quality producers over slower high quality ones.
like AI. because it is all three of the above.
As a Fiver (not Fiverr), gotta love the folk bragging on having (or losing) 6-digit accounts. Way to make me feel old.
The company had 762 employees as of December last year.
Given their "self-service" business model, why did Fiverr need 762 employees to begin with?
You want to buy a ticket with a physical credit card?
Have a machine at the theater - just like movie theaters do.
To pick up the ticket, you need the physical credit card you bought the ticket with.
You want to buy one without a physical credit card? They take a photo of your face when you buy the ticket and print it on the ticket.
Problem solved, no more ticket scalping/ 'resale'.
This is retarded.
1. It isn't for profit healthcare that is the problem, it's THIRD PARTY PAY.
2. I don't use third party pay, ever, for healthcare. I've been insured nonstop for over 30 years, and NEVER ONCE has my insurer paid my doctor.
3. Even when I've had emergencies, I still called around, negotiated a fair cash up front rate, paid cash up front, and billed it to my insurer. My cash up front rate was sometimes below any co-pay negotiated with my insurer, lol.
I just recently had some elective surgery that would have cost me about $2000 on my annual deductible, but I was able to cash pay a negotiated rate of $400 including a follow-up "free". I submitted the $400 to my insurer and they reimbursed me.
Third party insurance exists because YOU VOTERS demanded the HMO Act of the 1970s, which tied health care to employment, and then employers outsourced it to third parties.
Health care is remarkably cheap in the US (cash pay, negotiated) and I don't have to wait months to see a doctor when I call and say I am cash pay. They bump me up fast.
If a single session may reduce the risk, then it would need to be in comparison to people that did not do any exercise at all.
Look, I am pretty lazy, but even I exercise once a year.
All kidding aside, the real problem is that health issues tend to make exercise much more difficult. Some people get tired when they exercise. That's normal. But some people get headaches (may be a sign of weakened blood vessels in your brain - which can burst and kill you.)
I can easily see how people with certain cancers end up lying in bed for long periods of time.
I think the issue is that luxury housing has far higher profit margins. So developers build luxury housing, a small amount of middle class housing and no cheap housing.
This means we end up with too much luxury housing and not enough middle class and no cheap housing.
Part of the problem is single family housing. Most places tend to push that. If we instead push for multi-family housing you can turn things around.
The profit margin to build an owner occupied duplex or quad could be as high for a similar sized luxury housing. You get one unit with all the luxury stuff, and another/3 with cheaper quality. A smart developer could make this with a similar profit margin.
It has a lot of advantages:
1) Mixed class housing communities.
2) Lets middle class people buy up and make money on renting out their basement other 3 apartments.
3) Creates an incentive to build cheaper housing.
4) If you do it inside cities, it creates denser housing = less roads = less traffic jams as people have less distance to travel to the center of the city.
You have tremendously oversimplified the issue.
Among other issues, you have ignored the gifted students. Many of them were used to coasting through high school classes. Some of them continued to do it in college.
The most brilliant slouched through college with minimal effort and came out with good grades. They never needed the diploma.
Then there were the ones that were better than their tiny high school, but not geniuses. Some of them slouched through and failed their first semester. Some of them turned it around and became hard workers, some quit, some turned into slouchers and barely got the diploma. Some of the quitters founded startups and became rich. Others screwed up their life.
Most of the hard workers were never the geniuses. A lot of school has always been about hard work. That is the secret to getting an A. Brains helps, but hard work is more important for most of us.
Nobody told me I was supposed to make smart glasses.
I guess I'll go buy a micro camera and tape it to my reading glasses.
Waste not, get your budget cut next year.
