> "A rational society at our current stage of development would be celebrating job destruction, not creation."

Destruction of jobs in our current society would mean bad things for many people.

I understand what you were going for, but society is not at that point yet imo

My commute often leaves me feeling exhausted & annoyed (2 hours each way, half on the train)

The main positive thing that came from this commute was reading for pleasure (somthing I was not doing beforehand)

I don't try to max productivity on the commute, and my mental health thanks me for that

At many DS jobs you will be working closely with developers

Where I work we prefer DS canidates that have some SE background and could comfortably deploy a model (even if it's just to heroku)

We pass on a lot of really smart DS applicants who havent had the SE xp, simply because many of them would take a lot longer to get up to speed

This is just one data point, and some DS jobs probably wont require the SE xp, but hope it helps & best of luck!

The number of users reporting regular use doesn't necessarily mean more people are using

I feel much more comfortable talking about useage now that it's legal & more socially accepted, but legality did not influence the frequency of useage for me or the friends i knew who smoke weed

Slightly off topic, but you can order glasses (frames and lenses) for under $10 on zennioptical.com

Ive ordered my last 3 pairs there, and will never pay $200 for glasses again

I'm shocked that cigs are still legal. Everyone i know got hooked when under age & many of them have tried to quit before reaching legal age.

Cigs are a product for kids

It's much harder to choke in your sleep if you're on your side (especially important if you've been drinking)
