auto immune disorders happen when the immune system ignores regulatory factors and begins attacking healthy bodily tissues, due to what scientists refer to as "sheer love of the game"

Honestly, Tvyek is pretty miraculous. It’s permeable to water vapor but not to water, it’s nearly impossible to tear, but can be easily cut. It’s cheap and made entirely without binding chemicals. In addition to being used for wristbands, it’s used to wrap construction sites to keep out water during construction, for tear-resistant envelopes at Fed-Ex, coveralls for mechanics, and my wallet, actually.

Fun tip, though it looks like paper, Tyvek is plastic, and cannot be recycled with paper.

I feel like an existing problem that AI will make bigger is the removal of lower ladder rungs, and downstream consequences.

Non-AI example: Several local business with really niche markets have closed in the last few years. The owners wanted to retire and nobody could buy them out, so the business closed.

The problem is that they ran the business as this passion thing where they only paid minimum wage, so all the employees were there 'for the love it'. Which meant that when the owners wanted to retire, the people most qualified to take over the business had just spent 15 years living off of very low wages and weren't able to do it.

A place where I became a manger, my boss lamented that I was the only person with any management training on scheduling/purchasing/etc, and I had to point out that I learned all of that elsewhere. They didn't have people ready for promotions because they didn't want to "waste time" preparing existing employees for promotion.
