Do we know if these are mainly developing in the USA or elsewhere in the world? The USA actually restricts antibiotics by requiring prescriptions. Other countries that seem to have a greater variety of pathogens don't always apply the same restrictions, which can lead to more widespread use, which could increase pathogen resistance. Maybe some of these resistant strains are imported. I guess there's no way to know.

Uh oh, you said something logical and true. Prepare for the downvoting ...

The report also offers some good news: The CDC determined that the bacteria Clostridioides difficile, or "C. diff," which causes diarrhea and inflammation of the colon and can be deadly, is causing fewer cases year over year. The agency downgraded it to a serious threat, whereas it was categorized as urgent in the prior version of the report, which came out in 2019.

But ... but ... doom? Gloom? Invincible bacteria??

It's not really his fault, virii have been mutating since the dawn of time. But what I would like to know is what he is actively doing to stop it. He said take a job partly to be responsible for health of the nation after all.

Between the Sugar and CAFO mafias, the end result of Americas food “pyramid” has been sickness and medical profit. By design.

JFK can stand up as one of the healthiest human examples offering sound food advice a country should follow, and the response is to label him a racist for daring to suggest white people eat native foods grown on stolen land. Because Republicans.

The FUCK makes anyone think Trump could do shit about that problem when everyone else has failed, by design? Good luck going against the Medical Industrial Complex when Government is damn near in bed with them. Thankfully we’re not forced to eat Soylent Green yet, but we’ll probably find it healthier than the shit “food” we over-process today.

Who needs real meat when you can eat fake meat that’s only twice as bad for you? If that is how we “fix” food, maybe we should stop trying to fix it.

You missed the point.

A friend of mine made a tea-timer app for the iPhone. Where you enter what tea you are making and it sets the correct number of minutes. Today, people would ask ChatGPT before they go on the App Store to search for something like that. That's the point. Not what YOU would do, but what the general public does. And for Jane Doe, ChatGPT has replaced a lot of these specialty apps.

Skills are great until they aren't. The problem is exactly what you say: You can literally create a skill by telling the LLM to create a skill. Which is... why the f do I need to make a skill if the AI already knows how to do it?

Properly created skills, that include reference material, specific instructions, and expert knowledge the LLM doesn't have or that's buried somewhere under 10 layers of reddit posts is genuinely useful. But most skills aren't. I'm constantly underwhelmed by hyped-up skills that, when I look at them, turn out to be bland, basic instructions.

Not age, experience.

Anybody who is any good, can easily make Senior in 5-6 years, and Principal in under 10. So what age, exactly, are they discriminating against?

Why wouldn't it be OK to pay more for somebody who is experienced, than somebody who isn't? An experienced worker is more productive, and can coach and guide younger workers. That's worth more to the company. They're also more expensive. Age has very little to do with it.

Don't worry, nobody will ever pay you for labor, let alone use it -- it would have to be valuable for either to happen.

You guys are literally talking about killing people like Steve Wozniak. And the reason for it? A number, that he didn't even decide, rather a market did. And before that even brought him to billionaire status, they were worthless for an entire decade after he had already left Apple. You guys are literally using Mao's playbook here, and he did exactly this to people exactly like Woz for no reason other than they were especially good at what they did, and they got paid well for it. After Woz was worth more than 200 billion, he literally gave most of it away.

But you guys can't think at this level. All you two understand is a desire for power, and a desire to kill anybody who stands between you and power. That's why you're so susceptible to manipulative assholes like Mao, Pol Pot, Marx, Engels, Lenin, Guevara, Castro, Kropotkin -- all born into wealthy or otherwise affluent families, by the way, and you guys have already bought into all of their crap hook, line and sinker.
