Tradies got a few more good years at least. Robotics are advancing, but it's a tougher problem to solve. -

Robotics are real tough. Personally, I think they're hoping singularity-level AI can push us over the finish line in robotics advancement, because I think that field is reaching the limitations of what human engineers are capable of. Boston Dynamics has put out increasingly impressive tech demos over the years, but as advanced as they've gotten they're still nowhere near viability in any commercial capacity and everybody knows it. -

@Hoss @Nepiant if white collar work gets nuked the trades will be flooded with people who have no other options and wages will drop like a rock :02_shrug: -

I thought tradies were pretty thorough about gatekeeping their fields through apprenticeships and such. -

The housing market needs to fucking crater. It's going to happen, and it will be an absolute nightmare for the markets as the rippling contagion collapses the whole damn world into a recession, but it's a bandaid that needs to be ripped off. Shit's beyond out of control and getting worse by the month. -

@AsukaNeko @DemonSixOne @nugger @Hoss @Nepiant i know a few Asians who moved from Cali to Arizona to buy up land and develop. There's still not an influx of occupants versus housing being built

@DemonSixOne @nugger @Hoss @Nepiant Lot of Californians moving to Phoenix, occupancy is not an issue yet. Sooner or later the toilet will flush, it always does, and when it does there's gonna be a lot of empty units. Meanwhile they tell me to conserve water because water emergency but still keep building to bring more people into this water emergency area. -

@DemonSixOne @nugger @Hoss @Nepiant Shit, every city around Phoenix and in Phoenix is getting them. Anyplace from high end real estate to shitskin estate. Soviet af but unlike the Soviets, they can be very pricey to rent. -

Also crucial: BlackRock needs to be smashed into a million pieces before this happens. If it's not, we'll be climbing out of the frying pan into the infernal depths of Mouth Doom as Larry Fink crowns himself Supreme Landlord. -

@Hoss @Nepiant unions aren't all powerful, they need to secure contracts like everyone else. there are always non-union shops around and licensing is highly variable. where I live there is no official licensing scheme for electricians, for example
these guys aren't like medieval guilds where they literally have trade secrets nobody else knows. it's all on youtube. and that's the other side of the coin, who's gonna be paying high tradie rates when half the jobs disappear? a lawyer might think nothing of paying a plumber $500 to fix a dripping faucet but when he's been unemployed for 18 months he'll do it himself for the cost of a new washer. or he'll just live with itHoss Delgado likes this. -

A College Educated Professional will sooner die in a gutter than admit that they're no smarter than a tradie.
And because they're emotionally attached to the notion that being a tradesman is stupid and mindless activity, they actively dumb themselves down, absolutely guaranteeing that they will be useless on the job site.Hoss Delgado likes this. -

The white collar elite who dwell within the crystal spires overlooking endless urban blight that are oblivious to the foundation currently crumbling under their very feet are the final manifestation of high-INT low-WIS late stage neoliberal hubris. -
