> (a) shortage of skilled laborers; (b) high cost of labor; and (c) exorbitantly much red tape
Does the red tape also stop the Syrian refugees from working in construction? It's a genuine question and I am not trying to be disingenuous.
The last time I was in Germany, I aw several constructions projects in Cologne and Frankfurt. However, I rarely noticed any non-white construction workers. This was quite unusual for a Texan like me because Mexican laborers drive all the construction in Texas if not most of the US.
100%. I see more and more young people appreciating Carlin’s “it’s a big club and you ain’t in it” quote because they have come to terms with the rigged game. I think the GFC was the starkest exemplar of this.
The video of the crash is quite scary. In Texas these flyovers tend to be very tall. I think the Cybertruck didn't jump over the retaining wall only because of the light pole in its way.
You can see the lane sort of end, then cones, and then a choice that a human would make easily but that can easily confuse a computer as to "what to do next" -- and the computer chose to pretty much just drive straight. Definitely scary. I have a fear of being launched off these flyovers.... and really tall bridges. I have nightmares that I'm going to be on a bridge that gets steeper and steeper and I have no way to stop or turn around and there is a huge line up of cars behind me.... eventually the bridge gets so steep that I kind of fall backwards off the bridge. It's a recurring nightmare, no idea why :(
claude --worktree is great for isolating a single session, but you're still juggling terminal tabs manually — starting each one, switching between them to check progress, reviewing diffs by hand.
ChatML is basically the management layer on top of that. You get a dashboard where you can run 3-5 agents at once, each in its own worktree, and see what they're all doing without tab-switching. It also handles the worktree lifecycle for you (creation, branching, cleanup), has a built-in diff viewer with code review, tracks cost per session, and lets you open PRs directly.
Closest analogy: running containers manually vs. having Compose manage them. Same underlying primitive, but the orchestration matters once you're doing it regularly.
Thanks for sharing that. I also checked YT for reviews and found one video that went over the set up step-by-step. I thought it looked pretty good. But I couldn't figure out whether CC has access to the emulator.
I have to work for 3 hours in a place with no wifi and no power outlet twice weekly. I physically connect my iphone to the MBA and it works great. The phone stays charged 100% and the laptop drains maybe 20% battery in 3 hours.
