Made is 1:24.... man was that boring.
Sorry Seal, but that a video of a gay song and facts about how there are more people in other countries then America not entertaining or interesting.

Half those facts were simply based on population differences... They start off by saying that 25% of chinas population is more people then all of the population in America, then we are supposed to be impressed by the fact that if ever job went to china there would still be surplus labor....

Well no shit, you just got done telling us that our population is less then 25% of theirs.

It wasn't just about that, it was also about how degrees will be useless as technology advances faster than  a 4 year degree

I think whilst some things in that are true, a lot of things aren't and are based on lots of assumptions.

While technology does move faster degrees will never be worthless, and that assumes that all degrees are in fields with cutting edge technology.

Degrees are often about showing your commitment and work ethic, as well of providing a tangible and quantifiable marker of your abilities. Most of what you will actually use in your carrier you will learn from working in that field. The schooling really just provides you with the background to do that, and in some fields trains your way of thinking.

The amount technology advances during the 4 years you are in school is NOTHING compared to the amount it will advance in the 20+ years you are working.

At 3:51 in I pulled the plug.  I thought it was a torture thread video or something.....  Paced for AP English  perhaps.  The video trashed USA and just about everyone except China.  The video (up to the hook) didn't really apply to me other than the fact that I'm American.  My kid is in private school so he's actually learning.  I've had my job for over 5 years.  I've taken advanced classes.  Finally, whoever the band is sucks ass.  I muted the shit after thirty seconds.  I'm glad I've been able to avoid most of the noise it has produced.  OH it's U2?  Yea, fuck them.

Yeaah, just ignore the fact that shes 18 and looks like the 2nd oldest in the competition...

But anyway, they just have to turn 16 sometime in the same year as the games

isn't this a repost...?

and who really cares? most of us will be dead or dying by 2049, we're on no track whatsoever for this magical supercomputer that can best the human mind (last i heard they could barely do half a mouse brain for half a minute before crashing), and none of this is ever going to happen if we don't get some new energy sources anyways.
