He was making 150k a year and never put any money to the side in case he lost his income?? That’s on him.

it's going to provide step by step details on how to get a better high, no occupation is safe.



So what? :russ:

There are countless cookbooks and youtube videos with step by step recipes for food and people still order uber eats and door dash. There will always be a need for production.

Where I work ( big company, let some devs and others go recently, there is an order in place for no additional hiring for time being unless proven can't do job with AI )

Now I think the were going to freeze hiring for a bit anyhow so this makes it look like they are actively trying to use AI ( we are ) to a higher degree than before if that makes sense
They're doing a hiring freeze because they figure that they can get the same quality of worker at a cheaper price point with Indians. The goal is to use Indians until the AGI like tools are available to automate away workers.

He should call Benny the Butcher and have him introduce him to his plug, turn his trailer into a trap and door dash the packs

AI isn't there yet for coding so it must be a myriad of factors making this guy unemployable.

The portion of the state that gets called Upstate but isn't really Upstate...2-3 hours from the city. Moving closer to the city, let alone in it, will erase the cost-effectiveness of his salary.
Everything above Westchester is upstate my guy :hubie:
