Please enjoy this excerpt from my 7th-grade diary.
I think I left my golf ball at the cabin. ☹️

These people have no idea what other industries are like.
Dan Dumont recently did what any responsible engineering director would do: He asked his favorite artificial-intelligence assistant whether his children, ages 2 and 1, should follow in his footsteps. Maybe not, the bot warned. It recommended fostering creativity and people skills, while stopping short of prescribing specific jobs for the toddlers. How ironic, 10 years later, to see the recent spate of tech-sector layoffs. Not that novel writing is a sure ticket to stability, but rapid labor-market changes show the potential folly of trying to predict hot jobs for your kids. If someday Chung has a daughter who wants to be a book author? “I’ll be like, ‘Work on your style and work on your voice,’” she says. “‘Your creativity is your value.’” Now he’s not sure whether an entry-level coding job is a reliable fallback plan—or if such a role will even exist in the future. These days he’s encouraging his teenage daughter’s musical interests while she looks at colleges and considers majoring in biology. He’s noticed the woman who runs their local dance studio appears to earn a nice living—and her job looks relatively bot-proof.

Anytime I leave my chair for two seconds or more.
A ragdoll cat sits on a blue chair. A seat cushion and blanket are beneath him.
