@starsandrobots The theory that a jobless class has been created. Adjusting for demographics, the US employment rate is mostly unchanged. -
@starsandrobots The more nuanced theory is that tech is moving all employment from linear-rewards Mediocristan to power-law Extremistan. -
@rezendi er, missed this in mentions til now. What's meant by Mediocristan/Extremistan? -
