Abstract

The effects of robotics and artificial intelligence (AI) on the job market are matters of great social concern. Economists and technology experts are debating at what rate, and to what extent, technology could be used to replace humans in occupations, and what actions could mitigate the unemployment that would result.

To this end, it is important to predict which jobs could be automated in the future and what workers could do to move to occupations at lower risk of automation.

Here, we calculate the automation risk of almost 1000 existing occupations by quantitatively assessing to what extent robotics and AI abilities can replace human abilities required for those jobs.

Furthermore, we introduce a method to find, for any occupation, alternatives that maximize the reduction in automation risk while minimizing the retraining effort.

We apply the method to the U.S. workforce composition and show that it could substantially reduce the workers’ automation risk, while the associated retraining effort would be moderate.

Governments could use the proposed method to evaluate the unemployment risk of their populations and to adjust educational policies. Robotics companies could use it as a tool to better understand market needs, and members of the public could use it to identify the easiest route to reposition themselves on the job market.

> Or, maybe, they grew up talking to people from all over the world and have a far better understanding than boomers raised on television

I would argue precisely the opposite.

Support in tech for Ukraine is quite high because most people have worked with Ukranian programmers, generally find them to be decent human beings like all human beings, and seeing posts/pictures from someone you know in the midst of being attacked upsets you.

Most Americans working non-tech jobs, even the supposedly worldly younger-than-Boomers, have never had contact with somebody outside American borders. Tech can expand your world. Tech can also simply provide a safe bubble that never disturbs your delicate sensibilities.
>it comes down to consensus in a world where information can only move as fast as the speed of light.

Yes and now you're circling back around to the usual problems with algorithmic high-frequency trading talked about in Flash Boys, which has nothing to do with blockchains or cryptocurrency. Unless you can cite some "insane advancement" in consensus algorithms that solves these problems everywhere then I doubt there is much more that can be said here. Because AFAICT everything you're talking about is just piling more mitigations and edge cases on top of an existing consensus algorithm. That work is important and it needs to happen on any distributed system. It's not some kind of world-changing thing, it's just necessary maintenance (and cost) to keep the system going.

>This is what happens when people are incentivized to take a really good hard look at what global consensus really means.

They were already incentivized to do that without blockchains. This sentence could be more accurately stated: This is what happens when people deploy an experimental solution that claims to solve global consensus, but as we find out from experience that it actually doesn't, in some ways it actually makes it worse, and generally speaking those problems are still just as hard as ever.
The number of tankies has been impressive. I'm not sure how anyone can look at Russia and think "yea, they made some good points," and I study misinformation professionally. It's not even on the believable scale.
This is what the article says

"Collectively, the top 400 paid an average tax rate of 22% from 2013 to 2018."

"The top 25 wealthiest Americans got $401 billion richer from 2014 to 2018, but paid just $13.6 billion in federal income taxes, a “true tax rate,” as we called it, of 3.4%"

traditionally (which is where Chesterton would be coming from) self-criticism is a rational assessment ones own failings (typically due to ones passions, which are by this definition irrational)

self-hatred would be a potential emotional response to that assessment and may or may not be reasonable. a self-hating murderer may be on the right track, or at least on a better track than a self-justifying or indifferent murderer, although Chesterton would almost certainly make the obvious Christian point here

i am not particularly versed in modern psychology, beyond what a reasonably educated layman would pick up in passing. i think the old timey folks like GKC had a better handle on what makes people happy, in the greek sense of that term, and I view self-criticism as an important aspect of that happiness in order to rationally assess ones situation and make improvements to it
You're entitled to a deduction of up to $300 (or $600 if married and filing jointly) for charitable donations even if you take the standard deduction.
I'm using DLNA to play music from my laptop it at the moment (pulseaudio sink, opus encoded) to a raspberry pi (gmediastreamer) that uses pulseaudio to upmix to 5.1 and play on a usb soundcard. It works, and the quality is good, but the lag is crap and I had to wrap everything in crappy scripts that would fix everything if it died. It's been in place for a year but I'd love to ditch it.
I just use dtrx: https://github.com/moonpyk/dtrx. That only does decompression, but that's generally good enough for me and supports basically everything (even more exotic stuff like Java JARs and DOCX, which are both ZIP archives under the hood).
Why is anyone entitled to their own public square.

We Live In A Society. If you come to a public square - physically or on twitter, and scream something that the rest of society doesn't want to hear, you are exercising your free speech, and they are exercising theirs if they say they don't want to hear you.
Eth will hit a stable point of total supply, with both inflationary and deflationary mechanisms mentioned in other comments finding an equilibrium according to market forces. It won't deflate forever, so there won't be a centralization death spiral according to your logic.
I am also team bayes for all the reasons you stated, but do want to argue a couple counterpoints:

* While you don't have to have a fixed sample size up front, you can still "cheat" in a bayesian analysis if you peek constantly and end early on promising results that you want to win, and let them run longer otherwise. So you want to do something to account for this (put some structure in place, approach with skepticism, laugh and put on sunglasses, whatever).

* It's very often useful in practice to have some idea of what kind of answer you're going to see in how long for planning reasons -- for example, rather than your boss saying "I need an answer tomorrow" they say "I need an answer as quick as you can". Bayesian methods give you the flexibility to be risky when you need to and accurately count for uncertainty, but sometimes you still need to predict and strategize around ideas like "We'll be about this certain in 2 days, and about this certain in 1 week, and about this certain in 4 weeks and it seems like planning on next Tuesday is the right call"

I've found understanding these frequentist methods to help inform my guesstimates of how experiments will play out with regards to sample size and impact as well as honestly evaluate the trade-offs in evaluating the tests where I wasn't running it -- AB testing is really widespread so I feel like it's important to understand frequentist tests well even if you intend to never use them if you can help it.
To me, NFT seem to be the ultimate long tail, you have a handful of famous making money and a massive amount of hopeful people making $0 but paying to get these done. Once you can use an NFT to buy a home or a car then we're talking about something useful beyond the vanity long tail content market.

> I still haven't seen any reason anyone would actually want this, beyond the novelty factor. It's strictly worse than any other equivalent insurance or loan for a number of reasons, the worst one being that there's no human you can talk to when something goes wrong.

But people are using it, and (in the protocols I've seen) claims are handled jointly between an advisory board and community assessors, with a framework for appeals and community voting.

I think that's pretty interesting.
The top 1% of earners make 20% of the income but pay 40% of federal income taxes. Can you tell me why that's not fair?
You cannot longer see the true like/dislike ratio. They removed the dislike count even from the API since December 13th [0]. The extension does some guesswork to calculate that for you [1].

This library also doesn't give you the dislikes anymore (just tested it).

Really depends on where you live. In South Florida, the roadside and farm-affiliated vendors really do sell higher quality product for less money. I have picked up better quality mangoes off the side of the road than I can buy at a supermarket. But I grew up in Homestead, near the Redland agricultural area.
JIT-compiled code is way faster than linear algebra kernels which are completely vectorized by GCC et al? How does that work?
I think that only happens in Anime e.g. Shirobako

In real life that should count as kidnapping
The fact that the records are so well known would also mean someone could create a fake set, using teeth and materials scavenged from the time
What in real economy in terms of "charts" and "ticks" and "emotions" happens in 20 years, in crypto it happens faster probably in 4 years.

I don't know, but the way it is. People in crypto are used to 90% off within few weeks, where people in the other world probably won't experience it in a lifetime with their "traditional" investments. This is why it's so hard to explain..

It's much harder to onboard into a new currency, than to onboard to new social media platform.

It's like learning to fly an airplane VS learning to drive a car.

People treat their financial stuff with more caution than opening an account on TikTok.
>Sometimes if I have to use Linux, one of the most frustrating parts of the gnome file manager is how on some distros the path text input at the top is simply not there in some distros. It used to be there all the time. I don't know why this essential feature was removed/hidden behind impossible to find settings.

I only speculate. some distros like Ubuntu were undoing some GNOME feature removal shit because they were listening for user feedback, so the difference could be that some distros are shipping GNOME vanilla(as their big ego designer intended) and some are trying to undo some damage with patches , extensions and different defaults.
What this does to John Smith, Dirt Farmer, is that his land went up $500/acre, and he's got 1000 acres, and now he's got an "income" of $500,000 this year, which he can't actually get until he sells the land, which he doesn't want to do until he retires. So the options are:

- He sells some of the land to pay the taxes.

- He takes out a loan to pay the taxes.

- We make a special carve-out for people in that situation so that the tax doesn't apply to them.

The third solution seems kind of fake to me. "We don't like the results of this set of rules, so we're going to make exceptions for all the results that we don't like." Maybe it's telling us that the rules aren't all that great?

> money now is worth more than money later. Letting people defer paying taxes on unrealized capital gains is VERY generous tax treatment.

They don't have the money yet. Charging them tax on money they haven't even received yet seems like very ungenerous tax treatment - abusive, even. It only makes sense if you have already defined unrealized capital gains to be income - but that's begging the question.
Sadhguru is literally a fraud who swindles people in the name of religion. If he really cared about spreading his teachings, he wouldn't be taking thousands of rupees for his isha yoga courses. Ironically he's right now biking across two continents to spread awareness about pollution.
> You also have people bringing up Yemen, Syria, Palestine, etc to emphasize the “white-supremacist” support of Ukraine receiving overwhelming attention.

This one really annoys me. Yes, people care more about people who look like them, and certainly those who are closer and where war is less common. Same reason predominantly Muslim diasporas in the west care about Palestine a lot
Oracles open up a whole giant industry of data middlemen, sounds great
This is somewhat shortsighted. You can replace 'country' by 'place where you live' and then you can decide what you're going to do about it, let it all happen, don't care while your family and children are being murdered because it doesn't really matter to you but that's not how it works in practice. In practice people will defend the place that they live in from external aggression.
Disregarding the misleading headline, it is overall a tough problem to define if and how to tax wealth. Most people would agree that applying a blanket tax on unrealized gains is problematic (since it would force you to sell to pay for gains), but at the same time most people also agree that having $100B in TSLA/AMZN stocks and borrowing against those assets while paying less taxes than people in the $5M income bracket is also an issue.

This is fun HN bait because we discuss it every few weeks yet I haven't seen any real solution.
i'm not saying it doesnt exist, just that it's not as prevalent as people want it to be. i'd argue that even then, most of the time it's an exploitation of biases and not a new installation of foreign beliefs.
I miss those nights of social studying at the library on campus. The mood was stressful sometimes near finals but it was kept light enough with breaks to get coffee and snacks with friends, was a good time in life.
I'm starting to have success with IFS. It's a bit weird at first. But I like how it actually listens to and tries to understand the various parts that make up your psyche, rather than just convincing them that they're wrong, like in CBT. I find CBT exercises helpful, but at some point we need more than just pointing out cognitive distortions.

That is what many in America are asking themselves. And, speaking as a conservative Christian (both theologically and politically conservative, though no doubt the two almost always go together) that represents a sad state of affairs. So if people generally answer your "real question" in the affirmative, what comes next, logically and sequentially in time? They then ask themselves what I will call my "real real question", which is: Do we, do I, still believe in the free exercise of religion as touted in the Bill of Rights? And I think many must be answering that question in the negative if they support helping out parents with private school tuition, but not if their children attend private religious schools. Or if they think it right that a Christian baker should be forced to participate in the celebration of a gay marriage, rather than just refer the couple to an equally excellent baker who has no moral/religious objections to doing the job.

No, it is not.

It's amazing to me how easily people "forget" the actual UN-recognized religious holocaust that is happening right now, while praising its architects.
A competitor can be your customers' apathy, or resistance to change. That doesn't throw out Porter's theories, (which still hold very true imo).
> Looking at this war (and compare it to the fighting in 2014-2015) it is very noticeable how much a progress Ukraine has made in the last 8 years and in particular absorbing all the new developments in the technology while Russia in many areas hasn't progressed since 1945.

Even worse than that for Russia. The "Moskova" was created in Mykolaiv, Ukraine.

The warship itself was a creation of the USSR, but has more to do with Ukraine's manufacturing prowess than present-day Russia.

Russia wants to pretend that the USSR's history is Russia and Russia's alone. That's why Russia wants to erase Ukrainian history. But this war is proving that Ukrainian contributions to the old USSR's power was mighty and cannot be ignored.

------

The mighty warship was created by Ukraine, and brought down by Ukrainian missiles. The story here is really about how Russia has forgotten their Slavic brother's contributions to the USSR.

EDIT: It is quite possible that Ukrainians knew some kind of weakness to the ship that they exploited during the attack.
Could you elaborate by what you mean by regulation? Regulations come in many forms.
Maybe you're the first to derive high-minded ideals from `Delete the w in twitter?`
I got told the same thing here once when I complained about the lack of type-ahead-search, by someone who apparently thinks that sort of thing is too confusing to people who aren't technical.
That is incorrect. You'll find the relevant regulations here: https://www.epa.gov/biosolids/biosolids-laws-and-regulations
I think this is true. I also think the flipside of the coin is true. So much of the crypto hate can be explained by jealousy and anger at missing out.

The problem is we can use that to determine the belief of the zeitgeist: if you--or anyone else--truly believes Twitter is worth more than $45--and has any hope of getting to that value in the not-distant future (of course: time is also money)--you should go buy it, as there are apparently a number of suckers right now willing to accept a mere $45 for their shares. People trade because they think things, and if no one is trading right now it "should be" because they largely agree with the zeitgeist.

(This is also why we can use this price to indirectly learn something about how the market views the likelihood of Elon buying Twitter: if it were a "sure thing", the price of Twitter stock would be trading close to $55, as you'd be able to make a fast profit.)

Sidenote: I'm very impressed that in 2022 the community chose to put some creative energy into a website. It feels so much more personalized than the typical page on a ticket/event service and/or Facebook.
Some relevant offtopic here. Long time ago I came across a book of occult nature that, among other things, outlined 6 soul types, one of them being a curiously accurate portait of what we call wokeness now:

...individualised by vanity were born into city populations, and life after life they tended to drift together by similarity of tastes and contempt for others, even though their dominating idiosyncrasy of vanity led to much quarrelling and often-repeated ruptures among themselves. Separateness became much intensified, their minds strengthening in an undesirable way, and becoming more and more of a shell, shutting out others. Their emotions, as they repressed animal passions, grew less powerful, for the animal passions were starved out by a hard and cold asceticism, instead of being transmuted into human emotions; sex-passion, for instance, was destroyed instead of being changed into love. The result was that they had less feeling, birth after birth, and physically tended towards sexlessness, and while they developed individualism to a high point, this very development led to constant quarrels and rioting. They formed communities, but these broke up again, because no one would obey; each wanted to rule. Any attempt to help or guide them, on the part of more highly developed people, led to an outburst of jealousy and resentment, it being taken as a plan to manage or belittle them. Pride grew stronger and stronger, and they became cold and calculating, without pity and without remorse.
Yeah, it's so they have a guaranteed return. If they thought the "pure market" was handling things well then they should realize after a short time supply and demand should stabilize pretty quickly with the new fuel prices. No one is going to drive if the fuel makes it unprofitable.
Well yeah, he's never seen any real punishment from all the other times he's broken the law. So why would he stop?

He'll pump & dump again. Make a ton of money. Then after he's forced to pay a modest fine, he'll make it his mission in life to hunt down and destroy the careers of anyone involved in the investigation.

Its VERY easy to make one.

1. Install NodeJS and NPM (if you don't already have it)
2. Create a new folder
3. Run "npm install youtubei.js@latest" in that folder
4. Create a new file in this folder called ytdl.js (or whatever you like)
5. See section "Downloading videos:" on the github page. Make the contents of the file exactly like that. i.e. just cut/paste that example.
6. Replace line 'Looking for life on Mars - documentary' with the name of the youtube video you want to download (ideally this should come from args)
7. Run "node ytdl.js" and it should download

And they're never GOING to use it, because Twitter isn't for them.

The Tiktok crowd is not the Twitter crowd. The Twitter crowd is not the Facebook crowd. The only platform that truly has cross-group viability is instagram, and that's only because it's a visual platform.

Twitter is a place where you make short, concise statements and people yell at you. Remove the character limit and it's just a feature-barren Facebook but with a bunch of people you don't even personally know. Everybody has been crying that it can "be more." It doesn't want to "be more." "Being more" is antithetical to the spirit of the enterprise and will kill it.
