If you want an example, my last job in telecom was investing hard in automation and while it was doing a poor job at the beginning, it started to do better and better, and while humans were needed, we had to do less work, of course that meant that when someone left the job, my employers didn't look for replacements.

To be honest I don't see the AI doing the job of tech workers to a point we should worry now... But in 20 years? That's another story. And in 20 years if I get fired probably no one will want to hire me, so I'm already working on a plan B.

I can confirm, but looks like it happens in /r/technology, it didn't happened in /r/MurderedByWords.

This is how it looks from the account which posted it:

Don't forget Microsoft with Bing maps. At least Google made this just for US users, they made it for everyone.

I'm using Eternity, I haven't tried more so I can't compare, but I liked Eternity enough to don't have the need to try others.

How is it possible that looks like the whole country went absurdly dumb overnight? US did so many great things in the past, other countries had a lot of respect and even admiration of the US. I'm not from the US and I can't imagine such a thing happening in my country, such a shift in thought, in priorities and in everything.

I guess one can go conservative and all, and I can respect that, but this looks like something else.

The European Union is just a name, a label, I don't think it would too much of a drama to change the name for something more inclusive, even if we do not change the name, who cares anyway? There are already some overseas territories in South America that technically are part of the EU like someone else pointed.

Yeah when I said 20 years I wanted to express something that looks distant, I think that we will see a big change sooner. To be honest the plan B I'm working for, I'm trying to make it happen asap, hopefully next year or in two years, I may be overreacting but personally I'm not going to wait for the drama to really begin to take actions.

The funny thing is that some conservative people here in Spain (the normal people, not politicians) are bitching hard about it, they told them to think that it is a really bad thing for them.

Tibetan Buddhism here, more specifically the Gelug school. Right now my practice is more related to the study of emptiness with my teacher. I want to meditate much more, but lots of bad habits and excuses in the way :')
