Another week, another installment of our This Week In Comments series! Each week we pick a few of our favorites to showcase the awesomeness of our readership. Without further ado, here’s what made the cut this week: 

Tech May Give Us a Life of Leisure in the Future. Is This What We Want?

Andrew Doser: The question is then, what is driving the economy? Fewer jobs = less consumption. Less consumption = fewer robots and a much smaller economy. Last I checked, corporations thrive because people with jobs, not robots, buy their stuff. Where does the money come from to feed this new leisure life paradigm? Robots don’t buy shit and drive economy, people do. Will universal income give you the lifestyle you are currently living? Or will it be barely enough to survive?

Caroline Nelson: That’s when your education kicks in. You get the leisure of researching whatever you want without someone breathing over your shoulder. You define your own daily goals… imagine that.

Dogs Are Better at Reading Emotions than We Thought

Matt Bowser: To all the people commenting on how obvious this is: For the 10000000th time, anecdotal evidence IS NOT evidence. This is why everybody’s political opinions are so warped too, because people think everything’s obvious from their own personal experience. As the article states, “the first demonstrative evidence of such an ability from non-primates” DEMONSTRATIVE. We all know how much our dogs can follow our emotions, but now it’s proven through evidence and experimentation. People used to be happy when their biases were proven through science… Now science is apparently redundant because everyone believes their biases are objective truth.
