Yeah our biggest export sadly is human labor. Sucks especially when they get trapped in indentured servitude in places like Dubai. Great when they end up as nurses making 200k+ USD in California.

My aunt with Parkinson's in the Philippines pays her caregiver $300 a month and she does EVERYTHING for her.

That would be pretty good money / workload compared to her job.

Yup, I've said it before but some people I met in the Philippines make $6-7 USD/day, for very tough jobs (caregiver etc).

I bet if you copied the most popular posts off of /r/Bitcoin, even just 1-2 posts a day and spent the day feeding posts to ChatGPT to come up with articulate responses to popular posts you could easily clear that amount.

I liked doing that too haha, also zapping anons

Yishan, former CEO of reddit seems to be very big on solar powered desalination: https://medium.com/@yishan/our-project-in-hawaii-4c6c5a6052d7

28 days later is the best modern zombie movie.

Warm Bodies is pretty great for a rom-com.

Every time I'm called to pronounce a body at the hospital I have this irrational fear they will wake up and try to bite me.

If this is the case it's surprising they ran out of water in South Africa... poor planning?

Jan Leike, the other pillar of the "Superalignment" team also resigned yesterday.

Logan Kilpatrick, formerly OpenAI now at google responded "Keep fighting the good fight 🫡"

🍿

Bookmarked to watch later but why have they struggled so much? With the extreme work demands of salarymen it seems certainly not for lack of trying... did they just focus on the wrong things? Overemphasis on hardware culture in the 80s so they were left behind as software took over? Is it a specific cultural issue that has South Korea, China and Taiwan beating them?

hahaha /r/wallstreetbets degens are going apeshit again... love it

Bought a black coffee from Starbucks the other day... $3.45 before tax... when did that happen 😭

Feels like just yesterday it was $2

Almost like the Children of Men storyline just slower...

Excited about the real-time translation capabilities. Half of my patients frustratingly don't speak English and it takes 4-5x the time of a normal English encounter.

The ipad/iphone human translation services are so bad (take 1-5m to get one online, then they waste so much time introducing themselves.

Sad to know jobs will be lost because of this but I literally despise using the human services.

I find it amusing that men seem to love the Princess Bride but women usually don't for some reason...

I can still remember when zip drives came out... such massive storage!

I started to DCA because I am an irrational chimp and always want to buy when the price is going up and always worried it's going to drop further when the price is down.

500k stacked here (just barely in the top 50), but spent way more sats here. There should be stickers/icons for 1M club.

Wow. Had no idea this was a thing for such a major city.

Looks like many other major cities are also at risk... https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/0424--kinard-mexico-city-run-out-of-water/

hard to know but considering most don’t enjoy work the number is probably increasing out of necessity.

anyone have any luck in the bay area? Is there a good site that shows where people can expect to be able to see these??
