Yup. You guys hammered it to pieces. WP-Cache is nothing faced with HN traffic. When the dust settles I'm going to try installing Ngnix proxy to do more aggressive caching.
> Jobs aren't obsolete. There are plenty of jobs. Part time, low wage, no benefits jobs.
The 600,000 the article mentioned were mostly of this type, I presume (not the part time maybe, but the other two).
E.g. Secretarial/bureaucracy type jobs which rarely pay more then $15/hour, and usually ~$10/hour, are quickly being replaced with computers.
> Careers? Full time, living wage that can support a family, full benefits packages? Those are becoming obsolete, and fast.
I wouldn't say obsolete. I doubt they're growing at the same rate of the population, but there are still many fields where building a career is a reasonable venture.
Thanks, he made some strong points. I transcribed the most relevant part:
If you don't want to run out of ideas, the best thing to do is not to execute them
You can tell yourself that you don't have the time or resources to do them right
Then they stay around in your head like brain crack
So no matter how bad it gets, at least you have those "good ides" that you'll get to "later"
Some people get addicted to that brain crack
and the longer they wait, the more they convince themselves of how perfectly that idea should be executed
and they imagine it on a beatiful platter with glitter and rose petals
and everybody is clapping, *for them*
but the bummer is must ideas kinda suck when you do them
and no matter how much you plan, you still have to do something for the first time
and you're almost guaranteed the first time you do something it'll blow
but somebody who does something bad three times still has 3x the experience of that other person who's still dreaming of all the applause.
when I get an idea, even a bad one, I try to get it out in the world asap
cause I certainly do not want to get addicted to brain crack

The GP's noting of irony (is that correct?) seems to be valid.
