The vast majority of jobs and especially the most necessary ones are repetitive and and very similar from year to year. Does farming or mining change drastically from year to year and what sort of catastrophe are we in for if that's the case?

Paradoxish posted:You realize that basically nobody in the US is actually employed in agriculture, right? It's something like 2% of all employment. And yeah, farming and mining have changed an incredible amount with technology. Agriculture is also likely to see some pretty drastic changes with automation over the next few decades. Over a 100 year period yes. They change incrementally from year to year like most jobs. In fact I'm having a hard time thinking of what jobs change considerably from year to year that aren't specialized tech jobs.

McDowell posted:There is every reason to be concerned about overpopulation. It isn't just an issue of ecological carrying capacity, but economic. 40 years ago there was basically infinite room for employment if you needed a sophisticated system of record keeping - today you can create much more advanced information systems that require far fewer man-hours to update and maintain. What is your solution to mass unemployment besides raging at some hippie strawman?
