There is a big difference between "this is a tool that makes some things easier" and "this is definitely endangering the skill I spent a lifetime learning".
You will know it when you see it.
- MacsHeadroom 4y agoThere is no big difference. The steam engine put 90% of the world out of agricultural work. That is a big difference. Now you can buy strawberries all year round and drink coconut water in Alaska. Nobody will care where their art comes from any more than you care about how your food's field was plowed; and all their lives will be better for it.
- egypturnash 4y agoThere is a huge difference in how you will feel when the tool that might put you out of work shows up. Keep your comment somewhere. Come back to it when you look at a new tool that promises to merrily trample on your entire field’s income and provide an endless source of “usable, I guess” substitutes. Let it provide solace as you stare into a future with no room for the craft you’ve spent a lifetime honing.
