Sure. But is it harder to understand than Dutch and Danish. No. Right. I also thought the same.

Pretty sure London or NYC has more non native English speakers than Amsterdam and Copenhagen combined. So I don't get your logic.

Bangalore has changed. There are so many high paying dev jobs in Bangalore now where you take home salary after taxes + rent would be more than that of many US and European cities. People are no longer incentivized to take a massive loan an

Over the years I have become very mindful of what tech I choose to adopt. Which means I first encounter a problem and then try to find a solution for it using tech. I can't think of any worthwhile problem that this smart glass will sol

> Not MTV exclusively, but yes I knew kids (in elementary school!) Which I suppose was a small minority. Defintely not the case with TikTok.

Do kids used to watch MTV for hours daily in 90s? Do they used to watch MTV in School? Do they used to watch MTV while waiting for bus? Was their classmates all making videos for MTV?

3 Billion USD to get children hooked to garbage content, ruin their brains with cheap dopamine and ruin their lives. And it's perfectly legal. What a shit society we live in.

Yup. I didn't knew Notion was valued at 2 billion. OMG. Haven't opened it since I discovered Obsidian.

>Users have preferences and may change the engines they search with, not use Safari at all or be already using Google anyway. Well Google ofcourse clearly diasgree given they are willing to pay 15 billion dollars.

Also not to mention that Obsidian, which is made by 2 bootstrappers is giving a 200 million dollar valued VC funded company a run for it's money.

I never said EU should become a country. I just showed an example of a country with more population and more or less the same diversity which made it work. Obviously there are pros and cons with both approaches. And I think EU is better off

by blocked_again 5y ago
Yeah. I also don't think it's probably a good idea for the EU to become a country. Countries have a lot more power, autonomy etc which states lack. I think the current system of EU is pretty good.

by blocked_again 5y ago
No your logic was it's not possible to have a country with so much diversity. I just showed a counter example.

by blocked_again 5y ago
India does this already. With 3x more population and probably has much more diversity and cultural differences than EU.

by blocked_again 5y ago
I agree. India has a lot to improve on. It's far from perfect. And it's very hard. 1.4 billion people. 20+ languages. So many religions. So many castes. But it still continue to work. With its flaws. But it's one of the thing

Sure. But by that definition there would be only a bunch of tiny nations qualified as democracy in the world we currently live in.

Point is pretty much all democrasies do this and it's not only India(Not justifying). The fact that the OP had to come up with nations with population less than large Universities and tech companies as counter examples validates it.

by blocked_again 5y ago
Can't deny. But to be fair I never said you can't come up with 5 countries either. Tiny nations which are even smaller than cities are always exceptions in all kind of stats. The fact that they had to come up with exceptions valid
