Friend, please learn some manners. I am Billy Jack, the one and only.

Aspies are aspirationals, and are you saying that Zuckerbergs, Gates, and the other computer geniuses were technicians only? I believe that any of them fine young folks out there who know the computers could own what they do if only they had the drive to do it. You see today everyone has a belly full of food, a big screen TV and as much pornos as they want on them computers they have, so they don't have the drive - ie need to make a lot of money - like many of the older folks of my generation. This is part of my theory that young folks these days could live off the smell of an oily rag, they simply don't need to make money to be happy either. So I don't believe you are right friend.
Aspies are aspirationals? :lol :lol :lol

That says a lot...

Let me save you the indignity. In the IT business, 'aspies' are people who exhibit symptoms of Asperger's Syndrome, ie they struggle socially.

Friend, I know that word also has that meaning, but we're on the internet now, not in the low IQ confines of the lower median 40 % of the class who couldn't become doctors. lawyers or engineers and so studied computers.

Even when I was a young man computer scientists were not all that smart compared to the rocket and aviation engineers.

But I don't want to crush your aspie dreams friend, so allow me to say - you are right!

I will say, you managed to keep up the facade for quite a few posts, although I don't think I was ever really fooled.

Lets look at the thread title . proof the IT sector here is on the decline.....

http://www.afr.com/f/free/markets/capital/cfo/new_wave_of_jobs_go_offshore_y5aJXELqiWN65jVmmkOZwJ

theres plenty more where that came from.

what about other assoctaited jobs or any otherr jobs for that matter, what about all the other jobs that have not been offshored but taken over by automated phone systems, even the local checkout chick is not safe these days, replaced by a machine where you now pay the same price but have to scan and bag the items yourself, the only problem there is when I put my mangoes on and Accidently push potatoes. 8-)

So back to offshoring ,its not just IT.

A big read here

Australian Property Forum is an economics and finance forum dedicated to discussion of Australian and global real estate markets and macroeconomics, including house prices, housing affordability, and the likelihood of a property crash. Is there an Australian housing bubble? Will house prices crash, boom or stagnate? Is the Australian property market a pyramid scheme or Ponzi scheme? Can house prices really rise forever? These are the questions we address on Australian Property Forum, the premier real estate site for property bears, bulls, investors, and speculators. Members may also discuss matters related to finance, modern monetary theory (MMT), debt deflation, cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin Ethereum and Ripple, property investing, landlords, tenants, debt consolidation, reverse home equity loans, the housing shortage, negative gearing, capital gains tax, land tax and macro prudential regulation.

Forum Rules: The main forum may be used to discuss property, politics, economics and finance, precious metals, crypto currency, debt management, generational divides, climate change, sustainability, alternative energy, environmental topics, human rights or social justice issues, and other topics on a case by case basis. Topics unsuitable for the main forum may be discussed in the lounge. You agree you won't use this forum to post material that is illegal, private, defamatory, pornographic, excessively abusive or profane, threatening, or invasive of another forum member's privacy.

Accusations, attacks, abuse or threats, litigious or otherwise, directed against the forum or forum administrators aren't tolerated and will result in immediate suspension of your account for a number of days depending on the severity of the attack. No spamming or advertising in the main forum. Spamming includes repeating the same message over and over again within a short period of time. Don't post ALL CAPS thread titles. The Advertising and Promotion Subforum may be used to promote your Australian property related business or service. Active members of the forum who contribute regularly to main forum discussions may also include a link to their product or service in their signature block. Members are limited to one actively posting account each. A secondary account may be used solely for the purpose of maintaining a blog as long as that account no longer posts in threads.
