How do you think those immigrants get those skills in other countries? Are they randomly birthed with them, perhaps assigned them? Bequeathed, like a royal bloodline?

Are you retarded?

No. There are 3 ways they get them, the same as in the US:
1) earn them
2) buy them
3) fake them

At the very least, they had to have the forethought to acquire them in piece or in farce before applying for the job, unless you're suggesting a very large percentage of India appears to have precognition as well as having a disproportionately high rate of supposed idiot savants/high functioning autists (and that 'functioning' is doing a lot of work).

I'm so sick of this shit. It doesn't matter what your political persuasion is, you've got to admit that this is completely self contradictory:

"shortages in the tens or even hundreds of thousands of nurses, physicians, teachers, engineers, pharmacists, mental health counselors, construction worker and airplane mechanics"

If there is less of something (labor) the value of that thing will increase due to increased demand. It does not matter if they were allocated by government fiat (a communistic thing, funny enough, given the prevalence of H1B as a so-called "capitalist" measure).

More H1Bs and 'helping' companies is more of a planned or managed economy. It's more communist. But the fact is that no amount of societal uplifting that will make an 80IQ citizen a 120IQ citizen so that there's enough doctors or engineers. The only real option is to pay more for it, as a larger incentive to allow those who are smarter to be more likely to pursue it. (After all: as much fun as it is to operate heavy machinery all day, construction still wasn't the career that the smart kids who liked to play into the dirt went into...)

Not to mention, as a kid playing Doom you either had to find the BFG or your friend Timâ(TM)s older brother could tell you the secret. Today, a million youtubers have already done full 100% letâ(TM)s plays, and every secret, 100% completion, unlock, etc., is a quick google or gpt search away.

So let me get this straight. If I live in a hot or cold environment, and/or I regularly use the advertised range (or as much of it that the car will give me, realistically) to avoid having to sit and wait for fast charge to 80% for an hour on a road trip, I'm looking at (probably) no more than 80% capacity available after 5 years?

That torpedos the used market solidly. No wonder they're available so much cheaper.

Comment Foccused ultrasound but yes. (Score 1) 37

microwave labotomy ... We just put the machine against your head here for a bit and those bad urges go away, all better.

Another poster mentioned that it's actually focussed ultrasound.

Still sounds like breaking a piece of a system by stirring the brain with a knife (lobotomy) or burning it out with heat (cauterization), electricity (electroshock) or mechanical shock (blow to the head) - just carefully focused without (substantial) damage to other parts of the brain or its casing.

Ultrasonic destruction of a piece of the brain's reward/punishment/desire/avoidance mechanism rather than persistent unwanted fat.

Yep. The fundamental problem that requires loops is that opus et al are lazy AF. They do not "implement the plan, make no mistakes". They'll do a subset of {A..M} phases in a plan (90% of A, 70% B, 30% L, 0% M, etc.) and then say "all done!" when it compiles. So, you've got to loop it "do this until it's done". It's fundamentally brute forcing the problem, because the models aren't designed for completeness, just complete-enough, and then lies to you.

The harness exacerbates the problem. People have implemented some privately which do this correctly, but aside from the one I just made available on gh, I'm not aware of any that are public which do so natively/by core design. (And even then, it's sometimes iffy...)

This is all just marketing to try to cover for the fact that Claude Code wasn't properly conceived or designed on the onset to do what agentic tools like Hermes (and others, like Meept, or that Paperclip company with its autonomous employees) already do: create autonomous agentic workflows with clearly defined executors.

"It's a loop" is just bullshit to cover for the fact that they've got no clear, clean way to constrain context or workflows. They're trying to make themselves sound edgy so they can seem at the forefront of something they've clearly fallen far behind on.

Watch, they'll come out with some "new" feature in a couple of months which is already old hat to those at the forefront.
