  • Look again at why these people no longer have work available to them.

    If advancements in technology mean that a machine can do the job more efficiently than a human, then the value of that labour still exists, we just need to legislate a redistribution of it now that human employment is no longer doing it directly.

    Once we update our tax codes to ensure that the wealth of automation is shared equitably, the question then becomes “what do you want to do with your free time?”







  • Dont commit to a course of study unless you are following your passion, or have a realistic plan to monetise the skills you get out of it.

    Even if university is cheap/free in your region, the opportunity cost is steep. You will spend the next 3-5 years on subsistence wages, and come out the other end with very few practical skills beyond those of your specific area of study.

    As cliché as it may sound, take a year off and bum around the world doing casual/seasonal labour while you figure out where you actually want to end up, because no-one else can define your future.

    Stabbing the tyre itself is a gamble in terms of safety. Worst case the tyre basically explodes at you. cutting the stem doesn’t risk the tyre zippering from a failure point, and is definitely the preferred method.

    Feel free to stab and slice the sidewall once the pressure is released if you want to make the repair as expensive as possible
