I like how in a thread discussing how Spotify had been lying about their cost structures you're continuing to take their word for how fairly they compensate artists.

Yeah same but Orion is legitimately running sponsor block, dark reader, and unlock origin for me. Tried it on YouTube tonight and zero ads for a few hours. I thought this was against Apple’s TOS for devs or something.

This is pretty low level stuff but every dev I've showed this to found it surprising (I hang out on a slack community for designers and devs so it wasn't just like 2 people)

It's just a matter of time.

Yeah so your job is a harder to fully replace with AI at this moment than jobs like copywriting, narration, or illustration. Enjoy it while it lasts, because the days are numbered.

And before all those jobs are gone, people using AI tools like your Copilot will be more productive requiring less headcount. At the same time there will still be a lot of people seeking work, but now with fewer jobs there will be downward pressure on wages.

Capitalism big number must go up every quarter bullshit. Forces myopic short term decision making and will probably be the death of civilization.

Yeah that would be all fine and well if it meant we're on track for some post-work egalitarian utopia but you and I know that's not at all where this is heading.

That's a fuckin bleak outcome for a lot of people if the job transition goes from \ to \

That's like being an artist and being told your job now is simply to fix the shitty hands Midjourney draws. And your job will only last as long as that remains a problem.

Lotta people have already lost jobs because of it. I know a few personally. People with college educations. We're just getting started with this, it will get worse.

Geez the reporting around this has been ridiculously sensationalist

Damn I considered one of these for a little bit when I was working on getting my own home streaming setup going. Decided against it because it looked kinda stupid and I hate Android and a lot of the stuff that comes with it. I guess I dodged a bullet on that one.

Heat pumps for indoor climate control work great.
