labor is not being automated
@thufie pay no attention to the men behind the curtain.
labor is not being automated
This isn't universal, this is just a pattern I've noticed.
I think a lot of people think they are being replaced by a machine. Whether it is creative workers or everyday laborers, in more and more of their tasks. I would like to offer an alternative explanation, as technology is not magic, and often comes with a huge maintenance burden.
Modern labor issues ought to highlight how much corporations want to replace a mass of moderately-trained employees with an extremely specialized and overextended set of maintenance specialists. It's not "AI" it isn't "IoT", it's not "self-service", it is small traveling crews of IT maintenance people. Sometimes in combination with outsourced menial IT tasks instead of purely mechanical compute. Labor is not being automated, it is being replaced with tech workers who are at once being stretched thin and also exploiting everyone around them in shittier system maintenance roles. This is attractive to corporations because they can subcontract the tech work and use them as pawns in disputes with labor, later throwing the sub-contractor under the bus if the ploy doesn't work without losing much of anything. This can be a very incremental process, with only very small parts of work becoming pure IT maintenance at a time.
@nephrite programmers vs theorists
so, due to change in icelandic law regarding unemployment benefits, our household is officially without income. this has made us very angry, and it was widely regarded it as a bad move.
but we have bills to pay and are, frankly, fucked at the moment. if you'd like to help in the long term, please hire me, i have a decade of tech support experience in wildly different fields and i am Very Good At What I Do. please get in touch in DMs if you have concrete leads, or know a guy who knows a guy.
however, right now, i need short-term help, so here i am, rattling the collections tin.
thanks. love you.

Programmer and IT girl. Pseudo-vegan for the environment (-avocados +oysters). Very uncomfortable with astrology. Please don't call me "dude", "bro", "man", etc. Radical egalitarian anarchist, hierarchies and hate are incompatible with a free and equal life . For real though, I'm not gonna tell you to vote or post about political spectacle that is outside our control and in-actionable. Aiming to have a similar amount of internal contradictions as my environment like Ashby's Law of Requisite variety. I am probably stoned on some variety and dosage of cannabinoids if I am awake if you hate stoners just dni. I am also a trans woman so I *checks notes* meme about femininity and feminization sometimes. After dark account at: @thufieplus but read my bio there before sending a follow request even if we are already mutuals here. Oh and just to be clear because I think I see other white people on here trying to fake not being white under a bunch of other text, I'm just a disoriented white girl trying her best.
