  1. Re:Mental health workers? on Future of Employment: How Susceptible Are Jobs To Computerization? · · Score: 1

    Find a way into the stock market. If you can't get your money from working, work your way into owning stocks and getting your money from dividends. Of course, the people who will first find themselves out of jobs are exactly the people who can't afford to put money into the stock market, so that will be a large problem.

    Then we find out what that is, replicate it, and mass produce it for the perfect home masseuse.

  3. What's the time period being predicted here? Certainly we're going to keep getting better and better at robotics and programs, so the automation of trickier jobs is more a matter of how long it takes than whether or not it's possible. The clever and creative jobs are only safe as long as the capabilities for a program to perform it are beyond our reach.

    I'm not an expert on writing titles, but the point of the one I offered was that it actually mentions technology. What you say about catching people's interest actually means that you should find a way to make nerds care about it, given the site we're on. Also, doing a word count shows that the sentence talking about social media is only 6% of the summary. That means that you read a title having nothing to do with technology, then read the vast majority of the summary and still see nothing even slightly regarding technology. What kind of tech news do you think that is?

    If the emphasis were truly on the social media aspect of it, wouldn't the title be "Social Media a Significant Factor in Ireland's Approving Same-Sex Marriage" and then discuss the social media aspect more than an off-handed mention in the last sentence? All I see is an article talking about something political/religious happening in Ireland.
