Maybe being an island helps, maybe the WW1, WW2 and other conflicts were the process of downfall of the British empire I'm not too sure about it but after centuries of global European dominance Europe(including UK and the Turks) ended

IMHO USA is still the best in many of those things, it's just that its no longer uncontested. USA is going through the stage all the former European empires went through. You are even trying to do the nationalism thing which by itself

My office was right next to Barbican, I was going to rent a place there but I cheaped out. Still bitter about it. The thing about Barbican is that it is an opinionated living complex. People who built it had an idea on how the urban living

Well, Pakistan apparently downed 5 Indian jets, 3 of which are Dassault Rafale. Hardly cannon fodders. There's a billion dollars loss of equipment. Anyway, I don't know much about Pakistan or India's backing of respective te

Shortcuts should have been in "Vibe coding" style. I find it frustrating to use because unlike with straight coding the UI is verbose and its abilities are cryptic. Instead of this cumbersome UI they should have provided a UI wher

In my experience, in soviet engineering they don't augment stuff unless absolutely necessary. As a result, stuff tend to work as long as the physics work. It results in relatively crude but simple and reliable machines. The elegance co

You know what, actually if a non-American movie non-ironically tries to be like American it instantly becomes kitsch. Even British movies are quite distinct from the from American. Anything AI writes is dull anyway, it writes stuff that nob

That's disturbing. Instead of the govt. going after people we should enable people going after people. That's how it's done in real life and that's how we protect ourselves from arsholes in real life. That's why the

Those writing JS at Meta won't start making cars. It's just that US will become poorer overall and some might feel better for themselves that they are not in Software. If you are anti-USA I guess that's something desired.
