Agreed, I'm constantly coming back to a Claude tmux pane just to see it's decided to do something completely ridiculous. Just the other day I was having it add some test coverage stats to CI runs and when I came back it was basically trying to reinvent Istanbul in a bash script because the nyc tool wasn't installed in CI. I had to interrupt it and say "uh, just install nyc?". I was "Absolutely right!".

I don't speak Hindi unfortunately, but it's definitely on my list of languages to study (after Bangla)!

It looks like the Hindi tanha comes from Classical Persian [1], whereas the Pali tanha comes from Sanskrit [2]

Do wholesome desires, like practicing the dharma, not change you? Do unwholesome desires, like staying stuck in your addictions, not trap you?

My point is that desire is something that is deeply explored in all three major schools of Buddhism. In the Vajrayana to the point that we take the most difficult of our base desires as paths of practice, like seen in karmamudra.

This is a core concept of Buddhism, called tanha, and has been contemplated for a couple thousand years at least: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ta%E1%B9%87h%C4%81
