Its 3 things that are the funniest to about this whole virue situation to me.
We have folks talk all this automotion shyt for years. Yet we in this issue partially cause jobs and factories have been outsourced to china (which IMO is a bigger threat to american citizens and the workforce).
At the same time folks been mentioning automation yet you see videos in china (honeywell and 3M in america) and other folks making masks and ventilators by hand. Just lines and lines of people putting together shyt that will help us survive this pandemic.
Next (and I been saying this for 3 years on here) all these technology and multinational companies crying broke cause of the recession which means no more money for R&D (which is where new technology comes from). Can't be no moving to automation if as a company you have no money to invest in technology.
Now with this virus we depending on what we always have depended on...regular folks using man power to get shyt done. If you don't believe me see the hospital and all the first line workers helping save the country (sanitation workers, grocery store workers, food delivery folks, doctors, nurses and etc) with their bare freaking hands.
And so the clock gets reset again with a recession / depression.
The corona virus is the thanos snap.
