Elsevier, springer and mdpi have literally billions dollars in profit thanks to this free labor. Why would university pay for performing labor for for-profit companies? The system is broken and we should name things as they are - it’s free

Yes, I understand how their delusions work, though I'm sure it's not universal - it's obvious that for most of higher ups the real reason is that they feel sad they can no longer control their neighbours. What's interest

Note that Warsaw pact fell not because russia allowed it to, but because russia was too weak to do anything about it. You just lost the cold war and became 2nd or 3rd grade country. You should wake up and let go of your imperialistic ambiti

I've read already 4 different explanations here for why you've invaded Ukraine, each dumber than previous (ok, maybe not each - the one with CIA fundraising white supremacist that performed genetic experiments and tortured childre

So talking works only when russia gets what it wants and if it doesn’t you can invade other country? It doesn’t sound like taking, more like extortion.

> And the way to solve the differences is by talking! Why did you attack Ukraine instead of talking then?

What are you talking about? Ukraine did not go to war for my beliefs, they got attacked by you and they die because of you.

I'd rather just pay for Ukrainian drones. Maybe you'll even run into one when you get mobilized!

Indeed, Europe would roll over russia really quickly.

Is it satire or something that russians actually believe?

Good point - we must remember that russia attacked Ukraine already in 2014, Ukraine agreed to their conditions and it still did not prevent russia from wanting more. History repeats itself - appeasement never works.

Ok let's work from the basics. Please answer this question - is russia the aggressor in this war?

> I can not believe the europe would risk all its heritage and for what? Quite contrary - Europe is preserving it's heritage. Remember that russia does not want to stop with Ukraine - for example they want Poland to quit NATO. What

Yes, in this case one side (russia) attacked other (Ukraine), which is just defending itself. It's very clear who is the aggressor here. This entire conflict could be prevented if russia did not attack, that's it.

Didn't russia attack Ukraine?

by azan_ 2mo ago
> russia ? lol, they can't even manage Ukraine ( with our aid ) And that's why they want to attack Europe. They hope that it will either cause eu to stop supporting Ukraine or at least that it will give them good negotiation po

Very useful. That’s a weird question.

And how do you think it will work? Do you really believe that once competition to serve top 10% get really fierce, no company will try to capture the remaining 90%?

I don’t want to crate account there because I’ll get into endless useless discussions. And you can’t use this website without an account.

You really need to let your priors go if you still use this tired trope of next token prediction. It’s as useful for discussion as saying that human brain is made of fat, protein and carbohydrates - yeah that’s true, but it’s useless observ

On a sidenote - I don’t think non-proliferation will last much longer. War in Ukraine has shown that you actually need nukes.

Yes, water not used for human consumption should be more expensive (we should stop subsidies for that). Of course it won’t affect datacenters because they don’t use that much water, but well at least get rid of the most inefficient agricul
