Do we actually earn less money? I think it's just that the standart of living is much higher, like everyone buys phones, maybe pc's, tv's, smart fridges, robotic cleaners... Also ordering food is more normal then cooking for yourself.

Ask a farmer how long they work... then ask an old lady how long it takes to knit a sweater... then look at the percentage of the human population that lives longer, healthier, and safer lives now then 100 years ago. Technology has issues, and human laws and standards have a hard time keeping up... but the poorest people today live (on avg) far better lives than they would have 100 years ago thanks to technological advancement.

I'll give you an updoot for the general idea, but in reality, it's not nearly that simple.

It would be more accurate to say "Technology created the middle class, and now it's destroying the middle class."

I am not totally sure, but I do think it's possible with electricity. I had a weighting made once by my doctor to measure muscle weight.

That’s…that’s just mind bogglingly incorrect. How can people be this fucking ignorant??? Do you know absolutely nothing about history??

i think what makes us humans is our ability to think about each other and care about each others feelings, and like feel. and is everything that is "in nature" morally right? do u need to take advantage of ppls weaknesses to survive? maybe ur insecurities do

Hey at least they all clapped

The productivity benefits haven't gone to the workers, it's gone to the corporations in larger profits.

Ooo awesome! Good to see its being revived, could you seem them being useful in day to day life or just as an enhancement tool for the impaired? The translation part sounds like it could be really useful! Does it overlay the translation similar to how Google translate works?

You can estimate it, that's true. But if you would lay your hand on a scale, I believe you would not get an accurate result because the hand is still supported by your wrist.

They sent me my new test pair 6 months ago ☺️

I just want my costume and be able to leave. I shouldn't have to be nice to them.

Hard to say. Costumer service workers are rare. I'm not even sure if that's a real job title. I imagine the job would entail providing service to costumers. But that's really nonspecific. And probably unnecessary. Costumers know what they are doing, that's how they got the job.

They shelved it so it can't be that great

People mistreat others because they're selfish, insecure, assholes, nothing more...

Harder? Sorry I didn’t realize waking up at 9, working from my own home, sitting around all day with coffee is harder and longer work than the medieval peasants who woke up at the crack of dawn to feed their family. Even the blue collar jobs have been made significantly easier. Hauling massive things? Get someone trained with a fork lift. Construction? Got a ton of useful tools like drills and Jack hammers. And not sure where you got the “for less money” from. Really have no idea what time period you’re comparing this to because this is just non sense

I pay for my house, I'll keep the dang windows open when I want.

A study where scientists have seemingly reversed age in mice and how they plan to use this information on humans in the future.

Regardless of if we can quantify it, the number can’t increase

You think you work longer and harder than the people of the 1800s and earlier? Lmao
