Everyone with your exact job title in your industry vanishes, how long until awful things happen?

  • Yeah, software dev disappearance I feel like would result in a slow Jenga game of things becoming more unstable until they all fall down at once. Unless we figure that the world will got completely ballistic at the prospect of multiple millions of people just vanishing, then the knock on effects won't really matter.

  • I love you and greatly appreciate the potentially smelly and possibly unsafe work you do.

    • Whats a hobby/craft that you wouldn't expect that has an incredibly high ceiling either monetarily or in sheer skill?

  • There's a YouTube channel I saw a while back where the guy films the process of cutting slabs. When you take into consideration the sheer size of trees that have to be used to make a slab, and then the size of the equipment that has to be used, and the weight, it's easy to see how the cost of even a clean grained slab can be through the roof, not to mention something that has artistic or desirable figuring in the grain.

  • As well they should, but nothing will change until Qualified Immunity gets re-examined, and cops that engage in criminal activity while wearing a badge are actually treated like criminals instead of being shielded from consequences by the police union and precinct transfers.

    • higher wages for the servers... by the customers. Fnbs

  • How dare you suggest that anything other than generational indenture be used to produce veggie num-nums

    • Is there any evidence that Reddit has suffered at all from the exodus to Lemmy?

    Jump

  • The short-term is that reddit is scrambling to try to maintain the appearance of normality. Calling for volunteer moderators (Always Were.meme), and talking about their decreased financial stream show this. The rest is gonna be longer term knock-on type effects.

    Ultimately though, as many others have said, I'm here and I'm not going back, so while the bad news is a little cathartic, I mostly don't care. Will they completely die, probably not, but they are dead to me.

  • Those kind of extreme personalities often thrive on shouting people down though, which you can't do in an echo chamber filled with only shouty people, so they follow the ones they consider to be sheep
