"Crisis" because we don't have enough nurses for everyone to have one in their home? Because we might have to cut back on senseless make-work bullshit? Because we might have to remove the Social Security contribution cap (or do the local equivalent elsewhere) and actually expect the people profiting from society to pay for its maintenance?

Demographic decline is not the crisis. It's having an economic system dependent on endless growth because there's no other way to satisfy the boundless greed of the Epstein class.

You think LLMs would write "Slashdot doesn't have table support, so it's hard to do side-by-side well, but:"? You think LLMs like writing sentences that end in conjunctions that express incomplete thoughts? Do you think LLMs write "high frequences", "naively pairs", call H.265 X.265 (I was thinking of what you refer to it as in ffmpeg), imbalanced parens after "lacks motion vectors",etc?

Don't get me wrong, I am a LLM user, I absolutely do use it sometimes for search, fact checking things I'm writing, spelling/grammar checks (clearly not that time, lol), etc. But I write my own posts.

"Heard about the Amazon Warehouses in Canada? Full of Indian Workers!"

Telling us we have to work while sending all the work to other countries so more profit can be made to get even more control is just a predictable step on the path to fascism, as it breeds desperation. It helps to own a newspaper you can use to tell people it's raining while you piss on them.

That means one quarter of working adults cannot support themselves. That's about 40 million people. So yeah we don't need to bring more people into this country we have plenty of people. Nobody is going to convince me that all 40 million of those people are too stupid to be trained on the tasks H1Bs do.

And I could care less about innovation in this country. All that means is who owns the patents and it's not going to be me owning the patents so why the fuck would I care? I still have to pay the license fees one way or another.

I like how we're supposed to be nationalistic when it's convenient for the Epstein class and globalist when it's convenient for the Epstein class but we can't do either of them when it's good for us.

Just do some light corporate restructuring on paper and hire them all back under a different corporate entity. Trump will look the other way because he's all about the cheap labor. The right wing has always been about cheap labor. Frankly so have conservatives. They talk a good game but it's just talk. Comforting lies

Large companies hire these guys through contractors not directly. So this will have absolutely no impact on your ability to get a job in IT.

The only way to stop the abuse is to completely shut down all of the programs. Americans cannot and will not do nuance. If we were capable of nuance as a people Donald j Trump wouldn't be president.

I'm open to other suggestions but I have yet to hear a single one that is both viable and actually works. And in a country with 25% functional unemployment you can't keep flooding the job market with cheap labor. People are going to look for a solutions and when the left and the center don't have any then the fascists are going to step up. They aren't actually going to solve the problem but they will end democracy by promising to solve it.
