I have a media PC running MythTV that I use as a DVR for over the air broadcast TV. Over the years I have been using it less and less. Today I use it for sports almost exclusively. It is good for things like the oscars too. Most of the time I am just trying watching Youtube on my media pc.

TLDW: You have to change your mindset. Do not accept the default, be mindful and self-aware.

When I was in grade school we had a self-directed math program called Individually Prescribed Instruction or IPI. In the program you would take a pre-test and based on the results do a set of exercises. Then you took a post-test to close out that section. What I realized is that since the exercises are self directed we had unsupervised access to the exercises and the solutions. When given the pre-tests I would look up examples in the exercises with the solutions to figure out how to do the questions. I then proceeded to speed run the whole IPI curriculum. This gave me a leg up in math. I proceeded to get a 100% on my Algebra regents and just generally crush it in math. Ended up getting a uni degree in math and physics. This opened many doors for me later in life.

“If a free society cannot help the many who are poor, it cannot save the few who are rich.”

In the complex plane each of these vectors have magnitude 1 and the distance between them is square root of two as you would expect. In the real plane the imaginary part has a magnitude of zero and this is not a triangle but a line. No laws are broken here.

It is exactly what happened with the settlement of native american lands in the US. Settlers move into land given by treaty to the Indians, when trouble occurs the military is sent in and the Indians are inevitably ejected from their lands.

The question of which jobs should be replaced by AI depends on societal values, priorities, and the potential impact on workers. Generally, jobs most suited for replacement by AI involve repetitive, high-volume tasks, or those where automation can improve safety, efficiency, or precision. Here are some categories often discussed:

Repetitive and Routine Tasks

• Manufacturing and assembly line work: Machines can perform repetitive tasks with greater efficiency and precision.

• Data entry and processing: AI can automate mundane tasks like updating databases or processing forms.

• Basic customer service: Chatbots and virtual assistants can handle frequently asked questions and routine inquiries.

High-Risk Roles

• Dangerous jobs in mining or construction: Robots can reduce human exposure to hazardous environments.

• Driving in risky environments: Self-driving vehicles could improve safety for delivery drivers or long-haul truckers in hazardous conditions.

Analytical and Predictable Roles

• Basic accounting and bookkeeping: AI can handle invoicing, payroll, and tax calculations with high accuracy.

• Legal document review: AI can analyze contracts and identify discrepancies more quickly than humans.

• Radiology and diagnostics: AI is becoming adept at reading medical scans and assisting in diagnoses.

Jobs With High Inefficiencies

• Warehouse operations: Inventory sorting and retrieval can be automated for faster fulfillment.

• Food service (e.g., fast food preparation): Robotic systems can prepare meals consistently and efficiently.

• Retail checkout: Self-checkout systems and AI-powered kiosks can streamline purchases.

Considerations for Replacement

1. Human Impact: Automation should ideally target roles where job transitions can be supported with retraining and upskilling.

2. Creativity and Emotional Intelligence: Jobs requiring complex human interaction, creativity, or emotional intelligence (e.g., teaching, counseling) are less suitable for AI replacement.

3. Ethical Concerns: Some jobs, like judges or certain healthcare roles, involve moral decision-making where human judgment is irreplaceable.

Instead of framing it as total “replacement,” many advocate for AI to augment human workers, enabling them to focus on higher-value tasks while reducing drudgery.

Who would buy this and how would they monetize it? In browser ads? A freemium paid model to remove the ads?

How would that work exactly? Google would sell Chrome but keep paying teams if developers to work on Chromium?

Do you have a few minutes to learn about our lord and savior Linux?

Its bad, I get it. But lets go back to 1968 when baby boomers who would give birth to the millennial generation was born. Vietnam, political assassinations , race riots, anarchist bombings. Throw in watergate and stagflation. The world has always been burning.

This feels like the farside.

Had one for my iPaq in the early 2000s.

Does Fedora have a long term support version? Last time I used it a decade ago I had to upgrade every 1-2 years.

I do not disagree, but I was surprised when it claimed to have consciousness and that AI should have rights.

Heads Up on your phone is good. We play it with the fam on the holidays. You hold the phone facing away from you with the answer and your teammates give you clues.

You should be continually contributing over time allowing you to benefit from the dips by buying low. This offsets the losses and is called dollar cost averaging,
