  1. Re:I have way less secrets than they. on Ask Slashdot: What Are Some Developer Secrets That Could Sink Your Business? · · Score: 1

    Oh thank you so much for bursting that asshole's bubble. Arrogant dicks that don't know as much as they think they do and bulldoze their way through and shut down other people's ideas are the bane of my life.

    Not quite sure what point you are trying to make. You seem to be suggesting that because you are using tools around your farm that indicates that robots will not be replacing humans in the workplace. It actually demonstrates the opposite. Your first few examples show that you don't need horses any more, then the chainsaw example shows you don't need an axe or handsaw guy, that the chainsaw that you now own replaces the need for that person. That's the real point. That better and more effective tools replace the need for people and that the tools you have mean that you can run your farm with a fewer people. In your case those fears have been realised, and will be realised more when the large corporate farm down the road will be almost fully staffed with robots/tools and will operate much more cheaply than you are able to. Is this "halfway amusing" to you?

    In Australia, we have elections and rule of law. You guys should try it.

    Exactly. This idea is uncannily similar to that story's plot. Next idea is for a plug-in that rewords your email to make it more persuasive.
