That's a pretty nice RV. He's doing ok as far as homelessness goes...
Lol edit: not that it's a nice RV, but that he has an RV. Sorry if not clear (it's not clear).
A place to discuss positive changes that can make work more equitable, and to vent about current practices. We are NOT against work; we just want the fruits of our labor to be recognized better.

Eh, those Shasta ultralight travel trailers are certainly on the mid to lower mid end if the scale as far as travel trailers go, especially if it doesn't have a slide and he got it used. It's also single axle as far as I can tell and a little older, so probably in the neighborhood of 24', not exactly luxurious
They can be pretty inexpensive all things considered
It is?
So many tech bros on copium rn acting like their jobs will never go away, but their bosses have zero loyalty to them and will work tirelessly to replace them with AI. What does it matter if it’s a worse product, or barely functional, if that’s the only option it’ll just be the norm. Companies make and kill products and services all the time, it’s a revolving door, they buy good services just to cannibalize and destroy them. Once AI moves past “vibe coding” nearly all of these jobs will be obliterated over night, it’s only a matter of time on our current trajectory

I spent (wasted) years of my career developing shitty Skype clones for cable companies and ISPs, just so these companies could say they had them on offer even though absolutely nobody ever actually used them. It wasn't even a case of companies ripping off their customers - it was lower-level managers and vice presidents ripping off their own technically ignorant corporate executives. It was depressing busting my ass on this stuff when I knew it didn't make any difference whether it worked or not.
Do people not aggressively prepare for this all the time? If you're being paid $150k a year, you should live like you're getting paid 75k a year and save the rest or use it to purchase some security for the future, like a years supply of pantry foods, or pay down your mortgage if you have one. I have a full-time job and two part time jobs, not because I need the part time jobs but because I'm watching the tech industry dissolve like tissues paper and I'm "holding my spot" in 2 unrelated industries.
What happens when AI develops its own programming language that no one understands and knows how to maintain, or how to fix things?
What happens when AI takes control of all the algorithms and sows discontent amongst us all with deep fakes and no one knows who or what is real any more?
This is the real AI apocalypse that I'm scared of.
I am waiting to see when AI decides that CEOs are actually redundant by-products of nepotism
ai can really only be used in non-critical things, as in, when people try to use it for anything remotely important it fails before deployment
