I think people are going to be more tech focused as a result of the pandemic. I notice that the majority of my meetings, even mundane meetings, are virtual rather than face-to-face for example. The big difference that is happening currently

This is something that people fail to understand about economics. The vast majority of wealth is created by the faster movement of money - Japan went into a period of stagflation because savings rates rose in order to cover loan defaults. A

In France you have a strong president that combines the role of a monarch and prime minister, but the role of "constitutional gatekeeper" is shared by the Constitutional Council, Supreme Court and Administrative Court. The latter

This is unrealistic from an Asian perspective. The US has actually lost three proxy wars with China on the other side (Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan) and what is happening in Ukraine is a total mess that no Asian country wants to be in. The U

Do you want the app to be able to tell when your ingredients are likely to run out? The creation of a shopping list minus pre-existing ingredients seems to be the trouble spot there.

This is one of the points I always bring up with people discuss Islam, Kashmir or Pakistan. The current incarnation of India with the current borders was an invention of the British, even with Pakistan and Bangladesh included, and nothing

But the point was that TikTok reflects the media environment of US. It is similar to TV for example.

Instagram? Twitter?

Yes, but all of the media environment in China promotes positive pro-education material - India as well.

I am not quite sure what that China comment is in reply to, but India was a major (if not bigger) destination for bullion in the ancient world, and the West had a deficit with India for most of history including the early years of the Briti

The photos would be in Google Photos even if you no longer had access to your old phone and you do not have to reupload them.

Taiwan is lost in terms of defending it from any Chinese invasion. The US has been on the other end of proxy wars with China (Vietnam, Afghanistan, Korea) and has not managed to win one of them, and Ukraine is a big mess for everyone involv

The Greeks Empire was all the way to the northern borders of India. Europe and Asia have been trading for millenia along the Silk Route through India and the Indian Ocean. In fact Europe was losing money to Asia until the formation of Briti

But that would be a major challenge. Virtually all of the Asian continent save for Japan and Korea (who are reliant on the US for military purposes) in some way kept neutral and/or allied with Russia.

There seems to be a trend of covering up and looking the other way on many major political issues right now in the US. I presume it is a different story in Germany itself.

But surely these are just commercialized versions of forums, the latter being a far more versatile medium to have discussions on? Reddit has monopolized the entire forum industry and ruined online communities.

This is what a variety of outlets like Reddit and Wikipedia have descended into though. The people on the establishment side will say its "open" but the people being discriminated against will say it's biased.

I think that the biggest difference with the current situation is the 24/7 reach. You were forced to unplug from the internet for much of the day during your generation simply because there was no way to reach the internet, but nowaday

Wikipedia is incredibly biased in terms of what news it cherry picks though. Just read through the debates of what gets proposed for inclusion, and then think about the stuff that's outright deleted.

Many cultures even in the West look down on that kind of attitude.

So basically block the entirety of Reddit, which I agree would be good for all humankind.

Why are you in a place where everything is a two hours walk away? The thing is that most people around the world live in neighborhoods or villages where everything they usually need to buy is within walking distance. I explicitly said that

I think we are saying the same thing here. The work ethic is based on different bases for both - you would never be needlessly harming your health if you are passion driven for example.
