My last company is firing Indian employees working for peanuts because it’s gotten so bad.

Well now you don’t have to drive around NYC late at night grappling with insomnia and alienation, nor become obsessed with saving a young prostitute named Iris and ultimately resort to violence in an attempt to cleanse the city of its perceived corruption.

My daughter and her husband did Waymo out west... they frickin loved it! Wasn't expensive and no need to tip, plus the absolute novelty of it delighted them.

Watching smoke n scan and one of those Waymo cars are stuck in the street in LA near the ICE protest as it won’t cross the double lane to go around all the people.

Manufacturing was automated decades ago. Louisiana instrument techs built just about all the production lines in Silicon Valley from the late 1980's to 2000 because they had experience in automation.

We still have to import thousands of welders for plant turnarounds on temp work visas
