It's really tough to measure and interpret results, I don't fault anyone for struggling to have perfect clarity in outcomes and business results. But part of the problem with the corporate world is an unwillingness to question their metrics and call bullshit on assumptions that cannot be supported by evidence.

Don't worry, nobody will ever pay you for labor, let alone use it -- it would have to be valuable for either to happen.

That's a relief, I can retire early then.

You guys are literally talking about killing people

I don't recall suggesting this. Perhaps you have me confused with someone else.

like Steve Wozniak

I'm not Steve Wozniak. If I had his money, I would have retired earlier. (see above)

You guys are literally using Mao's playbook here, and he did exactly this to people exactly like Woz for no reason other than they were especially good at what they did, and they got paid well for it.

I think a radical leftwing movement would be unstoppable if they followed Mao's playbook. Because Americans have no defense against it.
I would be against it though. I think the means matter as much as the ends.

Heh. Supply chain infiltration has occurred numerous times in history without ever passing through the adversarial nation.
There are ways to improve confidence in your supply chain. But it is difficult to completely eliminate the possibility of state actors, even in a supply chain that is closed in your own nation.

Download the offline version of Wikipedia and some backups of GeoCities. The good old days are in the past and immutable, you can look at it, but you won't be able to meaningfully interact with an online society that no longer exists. Because of that, it will feel more like being in a museum than actually experiencing the old Internet.

That said, there are corners of the Internet that have changed little. Forums for special interests. I'm on a synthesizer/musician forum (MOD WIGGLER) and it is pretty old school. There's are guitar forums like TDPRI (Telecaster Discussion Page Reissue) that are also pretty much unchanged for decades. I used to post on NESdev forum, which is a hobby retro game programming forum. But I haven't touched it in a decade+

I'd use it to get a degree in an AI proof industry, like dental hygienist. Nursing kind of sucks these days because of AI and healthcare business. Other AI proof industries might be aromatherapy and massage. Can't even go into a nice peaceful job of driving a garbage truck, robotics are going to end growth in that industry in a few years.

It's an interesting formula MS has though. Age + years of employment >= 70. But I'm not sure how much they are actually paying. Probably a formula of years of employment each get a fractional multiplier on base salary.
