@thejapantimes The majority is Americans still don’t care about football / soccer, despite constant promotion of the sport. They sure as hell aren’t going to care about cricket any time soon. India and Pakistan can have it.
#JustFinished Blood in the Machine by Brian Merchant
This has been an absolutely fascinating book to read and is perhaps the most important book I'll read all year. Merchant is spot on with his commentary about the parallels between the first Industrial Revolution and now. We have not learned a thing about protecting our populations and economies from mass unemployment during technological upheaval.
@DejahEntendu@bookstodon I am personally one of those expensive North Americans, who got capitalism-ed out of his corporate job. (Along with most of my former NA coworkers)
@DejahEntendu@bookstodon I’m looking for a new job at the moment. I’m wondering if it’s harmful to have a resume with lots of experience nowadays. Traditionally, experience was valuable, but perhaps nowadays, it just makes you seem expensive. They could pay younger, dumber people less.
