Where are all those robots that make us need UBI right about now? A burger flipper bot and a fully automated cashier kiosk seems like something that would prevent McDonald's offering $50 interview payments.

>The market doesn’t incentivize security until it is too late. That's why you have government and law to require it. The free market solving everything is a myth, and the USA is lucky that all the pipeline hackers wanted was money.

HN spends a lot of time discussing under represented groups in tech. It would be interesting to apply that same logic here. I wonder what the demographic breakdown of the top 0.01% would look like.

It is telling that there are many obvious ARM fans in this thread, but not a lot of proud M1 owners. It seems Apple really screwed the pooch by failing to ship some sort of bootcamp for M1 to make Linux possible.
