>The disorder is characterized by "impaired control" with increasing priority given to
Oh please, then I assume every hobby in the world can be considered "hobby-name disorder". If it's something that help the millennium generation to relax and free their mind a few minutes /hours and if the society doesn't find something to come and reach the same level of satisfaction we found the "solution", it's a mental disorder... We really evolved... NOT
But why should one rely on the termination of the nerves instead of the implating an electrode on the main cortex which controls the motor activity? Can't they translate directly the actions from the energy flow at that level?
What really frustrates me when I watch this kind of demonstrations with bionics is the delay and inaccuracy between desired action and the real effect. I know it's not that simple, but from my perspective since the desired actions are transmitted through our nerves at 100 m/s and we can send an message thousands of kms away in milliseconds, I think there is always space for improvement. I am curious which is the real bottleneck in all the process.
What really surprises me it's how well Elon Musk handles everything so far. In most of the companies I see some steps : create a product, announce it, release it, take a break and enjoy the hard work, repeat. I don't see that at Elon Musk, he is just going and going and developing and bringing new products over products, there is no visible break. .. I am picturing him skiing with an avalanche behind, and he keeps going and with each new product, more snow is gathering behind him. At one moment, a simple mistake will cause the avalanche to catch him.
>This can be seen from increase in placements in IITs this year.
That's probably because they are pushed by their families, "go and study IT, this is the best paid job at the moment". That doesn't mean that the value, skills, abilities of the new graduates will increase, I tend to believe the opposite.
>Well, yeah, entry-level IT stuff was always a target for automation
I see this as a progress. Since you replace the first-level IT stuff with automated processes, the now second-level IT stuff will sooner or later become first-level and so on. Therefore all the levels are pushed upwards and we tend to go to higher levels, no matter if we speak about developing, researching, improving etc.
>These people are mainly relatively unskilled. These companies are notorious for hiring entire batches of graduating students.
Please follow the discussion, I was talking only about the fresh graduates and entry-level employees, I was not at all stereotyping the whole country. On the contrary I find them a pretty impressive nation with outstanding potential in the next century.
Since you are an Indian too, I think your remarks are kind of subjective and your reply a bit harsh, but I'll add more facts that sustain my point of view.
>Not working hard doesn't come from the culture
Yes it truly does. Since every individual has inherited from the environment and has been cultured that he needs to do just what he is told (the minimum), this is how he grows.
>Maybe the firm you are dealing with doesn't pay the employees well enough
You can't hide behind your finger with this excuse. If you want a raise you tend to work harder, do the extra mile, you defenly don't get a raise by doing the minimum. Also, if you are good at what you are doing but you are not happy with the salary then why accept the job in first place?
Not only that I agree with that, but I'd like to add the fact that after 2 years of working in a team splitted in Romania and India, the working experience with Indian programmers is relatively difficult. It's not something isolated to an individual, all of my colleagues have been complaining that they would really like to work with someone else, but not from India. I think it comes from their culture, they are not used to work hard or to do something willingly. They are doing it if they must, if someone tells them that they have to do it.
