If you're reading this I've probably asked you a stupid question

My life feels like it's constantly blue screening.
I do not understand what's going on nor how to fix it but as long as it's mostly working I won't reinstall.
I feel like that's true for a great many jobs that are slowly but surely getting all the art and passion sucked out of them to be replaced by capitalistic corporate greed.

Both if at all possible. If I'm being honest I can imagine what both those terms might mean but I ain't entirely sure.

Politically I agree with you. But I don't think this discussion really is about their political actions.

There are plenty of competent amateurs who can use Canva to create perfectly decent graphic design, just as there are plenty of incompetent ones who produce eye-searing trash. You can’t really fault the tool for being easy and intuitive enough for unknowledgeable people to use.

I agree that it’s perhaps unfortunate that the art of graphic design has been somewhat lost.

However, as more competent tools become available, more people will DIY—and that’s not their fault. As a professional, you have to adapt and find ways to provide value that people can recognize.

In general, not every task requires a professional to handle. It always depends on the available skill set and the motivation and/or ability to complete it yourself.
I fully agree that a skilled designer could probably do it better, but hiring one is often not cost-effective to accomplish the task.

Just stumbled onto this. Does anyone have any good resources on the subject?
I wanna definitely understand how this works!

I disagree. Canva isn't necessarily a bad tool it offers people a relatively easy way to conduct graphic design. Most people won't notice the difference between competent amateur graphic design and professional graphic design in their day to day if they aren't looking for it.

I am in support of workers world wide but I don't see how these tariffs would improve working conditions in either country.

I am fairly unsure on how I have ended up on this profile.
I am even more unsure on what a glycoprotein exactly does.
Overall 10/10 pick for my daily Wikipedia rabbit hole.
