As a European I'm dumbfounded how this issue alone isn't deciding elections in the US. Somehow everyone just accepted having their identity stolen every once in a while.

2032 just to start is way too late. The invasion will start before the end of the current US presidential term. Although it's useful to plan for the best case as well, I guess.

Emotions aren't that special or mysterious. They are just a low-power analog decision-making mechanism. Making a machine driven by emotion would be trivial. We don't know how to make a machine that can experience emotions (or if i

Same. I went back from Gemini to Claude yesterday, because Gemini was writing decidedly worse code, at times not even able to stick to Python syntax. Using Aider.

Do you have that friend who knows the answer to anything and who you thought was a genius until smartphones appeared and you started googling his answers? LLMs are that guy. For programming stuff that can be immediately verified LLMs are go

It's not about patriotism. Many people outside the US, myself included, see a problem with authoritarian superpowers per se. Although now that the US is rapidly drifting towards authoritarianism, that just seems like an inevitable futu

Hopefully not something that can happen in Spain, but in authoritarian countries they simply arrest or otherwise penalize the end users.

Are you referring to 2020 attempt or the 2024 murder? He was a lot more than just nuisance in 2020 and could have become the gravity center for future anti-war sentiments. In 2024 Putin murdered him just because he wanted to and there was n

I agree with your characterization of Europe's actions. However, belittling Ukraine and siding with the aggressor to make a point with europeans is not "articulating forcefully". It's bullying.

Europe could remind Trump that he's going to need our alliance if he plans to confront China. It looks less and less like he does though.

"NATO expansionism" is 100% pure, refined Russian propaganda. Countries join NATO because they are afraid of Russia and Ukraine is the proof they are right to be afraid. I don't know why I'm even writing this. Noone with

It surprises and scares me how few people in the West understand this. It's because staring wars is how dictators cling to power, plain and simple. This is obvious to anyone who follows Russian politics. There's even a term "

When you try to predict dictators' behavior usong geopolitical arguments, you make the same mistake as the people who didn't believe in the Russian invasion into Ukraine. It's the internal politics that pushes dictators to a

This is the American company that censored Radio Liberty in Russia (a country they've "left" because of the war) at the request of Russian authorities. Expecting them to take a stand against UK is insanity.

As someone who lived most of my life under authoritarianism, this rings so many alarms. Pressing civil servants and government workers to vote the way you need is basically the first trick in the dictator's manual.

Yes, except they shouldn't be arresting anyone (and should be disbanded). It's absurd to punish someone for causing harm to themselves.

That's totally the responsibility of the seller, not the platform. Especially so, if the platform takes steps to prevent such incidents.
