For me, the end of the world is no more cushy software job. A fundamental shift in how I trade labor for capital might as well be the cataclysm, so bring it on.

- drivebyhooting 8d agoI was about to say something similar. If my cushy ad tech disappears (as it seems to be doing), I might as well join in with bringing about the end of all professions.
- unified101 8d agoIsn't that a selfish viewpoint? You're ok with that?
- sensanaty 8d agoHe works for ad tech, he obviously has no morals and is maximally selfish already
- BLKNSLVR 8d ago> ad tech disappears I pray for the day.
- Synthetic7346 8d agoCan't come soon enough
- deaux 8d agoIf I don't get accepted into art school, I might as well exterminate a few ethnicities. Actually, yours seems worse. Bringing about "the end of all professions" sounds like you're talking about ending humanity.
- asdaqopqkq 8d agoI wish i could say the same, i see people around me with more resources and connections and better experience with entrepreneurship becoming millionares. But I haven't had the time to train that entrepreneurship bone in my body.
- deaux 8d agoExplain why? How does live being worth living binarily depend on having a cushy software job?
- skulk 7d agoI've seen how people work in manual labor type jobs (all that will be left, right?). They're worked to the bone and paid peanuts. It's a wretched existence for someone soft like me.
- deaux 4d ago> all that will be left, right That assumption is wildly different from you losing your cushy software job. The large majority of US jobs are neither cushy software jobs, nor grueling manual labor.
