Learning to code vs. learning to automate
When I was younger I dreamed up an idea of a shock suit, basically it would have been a set of long underwear top and bottom with electrodes that would act like a TENS machine to gently(or not so gently) nudge the wearers into performing a repetitive task with machine accuracy. I figured this would be great for an assembly line and could provide a cheaper alternative to a very costly robot while still providing employment. I never pursued the idea after telling my Dad about it who told me it was an immoral idea.<p>Personally I would still be willing to wear a suit like that if the pay was good enough. Put on the suit, turn off my mind and put in a days work.
