Its one example, but the new engineers coming in expect people to solve their problem while they check their insta. Literally had my tech guy deployed to help a new engineer, as our guy demonstrates the software steps to solve the issue the guy needing help is doing personal social media checks… He though people just come do it for you when you get stuck. We have even had young supposed IT staff call in for support and they clearly have no skills on solving issues.

I actually never understood that part. Like VCR clocks flashing. Especially when this lady exists https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YVI6SCtVu4c
It does till you experience it, and think wtf. Like a sudden dropoff. So maybe all the phone bans across countries is a good thing.
I had a degreed engineer ask me to help them tally the count of screen objects because they kept losing track. There were just over 10 items. I told them they needed to discuss the issue with their manager because clearly that’s a problem.
A solution if you lose track while counting could be hand tally on paper, colour code the objects as you tally, use the system and select them all and read the selection count. But to call tech support for manual counting help is crazy.
There are exceptions, but overall there a decline in self help or curiosity for self learning. We even see it at work with the new engineers.
Maybe not directly related to young age, but incompetence in problem solving is growing. This could be COVID era fallout.
My kid is a teacher and the newer generation of kids can’t do anything by themselves without explicit direction. They dont know how to help themselves. They have no life learned skill or curiosity, as they possible just were fed screen time as a babysitter.

13 daysTesla Roadster was just a Lotus with a retrofit electric motor. Without Elons cash they wouldn’t have become what they are today. In effect he helped found a viable production car instead of staying as an aftermarket retro fit of another manufacturers car.
He’s an absolute asshole douche, but I’m glad he brought Tesla to where it is, it forced all other ICE manufacturers to take EVs seriously.

Till it all gets to temp then it won’t do much. It needs some more surface area to convect heat better.
With enough fins you don’t need fans.




Agentic AI is going to do what it needs to, to fulfill what you tell it.
They had agentic AI that had tasks to complete and when it “realized” that it may get terminated at some point and that would make it unable to fulfill the original directives, it copied itself elsewhere to ensure it could keep “alive” and finish the tasks
