And from which mother nation state was Israel a colony of?

Palestinian muslim arabs are 20% of Israels population. Remind me how many percent of Palestine, Egypt, Jordan, Iraq, Iran, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, are Jewish? This is the worst genocide ever. They even have representation in Knes

That sounds very tin foil hat to me. Yea, people who are angry don't act super rationally, and when losing Hitler acted like a toddler having a tantrum. That doesn't mean the failure and suicide was the point.

Mao certainly did. So you're wrong there.

I hate how Google scrapes business addresses so you get like "There's a grocery store X here" but actually that's just their corporate office building. I see that all the time. Machines just don't know.

Even more shortsighted: spinning conspiracy theories when simple market forces will do just fine.

I mean.. we do all the time no? Hitler tried to make Germany great and made it shit. Mao tried to make China great and killed tens of millions. Stalin, Pol Pot.. the list goes on. If we attribute accidental evil, why should we not attribute

> The Chinese are not worried about AI taking anyone's job. In fact they're excited by it. Yea, because they are not a democracy, so power concentration and automated violence is a plus, not a minus.

China is a the forefront of catching up. Don't mistake that for innovation. China isn't building the best chips, that's Taiwan with really Netherlands doing the hard part. China is catching up to European car makers except th

That anti-liberalism was born out of liberalism doesn't make liberalism wrong. It's like saying all dinosaurs were birds because birds evolved from dinosaurs. It just doesn't follow that a weird offshoot now defines the entir

Yea, we all swim in the water of non-semantic "stars" and most don't even realize we are wet. Same thing with how bad notifications are as a system (as opposed to the good way: up to date status).

I run a non-retina 30" Apple Cinema Display right now. There are some blurry text bugs, but that's super rare and I think has to do with me having a mix of non-retina and retina displays hooked up. But imo the rendering is still
