- Comment on Lyft and Uber say they will leave Minneapolis after city council forces them to pay drivers more 8 months ago:
They will leave.
They have left countries all together because of this.
- Comment on The minimum wage is going up in 22 states on Jan. 1 11 months ago:
Working as intended then.
- Comment on A manufacturer tried the 4-day workweek for 5 days' pay and won't go back 1 year ago:
It’s too much for everyone, unless your work is your life.
In jobs where 8 hours are no problem, you usually have some periods of time, where you can shut off your brain. Driving to a new location, frequent breaks in the office or practical duties for some variation.
Corporate desk jobs are awful longer than 6-7 hours.
- Comment on Whose voice is it anyway? Actors take on AI copycats 1 year ago:
This is a battle the voice actors won’t win, unfortunately. Maybe today, their voices are iconic. You can’t make a new Frozen movie or any other Disney Pixar without the original voice actor (you can, but it’s bad).
But in the future, the next “voice actor” for the next big Disney Pixar hit, is a pure AI from the start. Then they can control the voice forever. And that’s what they want.
I can’t see how the voice actors could possibly get around this, because they are suddenly expendable.
