10xDev··on Poland is now among the 20 largest economies
Yeah, I really don't think this is why China doesn't try to spread its ideology by force. I don't think a passive authoritarian state exists, just ones that don't have the military power or background / weak enough targets to achieve this. The US very much keeps them in check from invading not "wisdom".
10xDev··on Poland is now among the 20 largest economies. How it happened
I remember when Poland colonised half the world.

Those IQ charts look very different depending on who is doing the sampling. One of the famous ones is from a self described "scientific racist".

10xDev··on AI Slop Is Killing Online Communities
So what is the comment frequency of these bots? There must be some signal in the activity even if the comments themselves pass the turing test.
10xDev··on AI slop is killing online communities
Unless their account is <1 year I wouldn't assume they are a bot.
10xDev··on Richard Dawkins concludes AI is conscious, even if it doesn't know it
No even that is giving too much credit. It is no longer cool or edgy to be an atheist and trend is shifting the other way for young people.

Just another fraud, no integrity. This should have been obvious when they all suddenly came on podcasts talking about simulation theory as if that's not just another way of saying we have been created by something but with a sci-fi-esque twist.

10xDev··on BYD overtakes Tesla and Kia as the best-selling EV brand in key overseas markets
European GDP per capita has not grown since the crash in 2008. Ever since we have heard that immigrants are being imported for jobs, yet the economy only gets worse, house prices increases due to supply and demand and crime rate is not equal among groups. Yes some people are just white supremacists but also, immigration hasn't solved anything in Europe in recent times. It is not like the US where you have a massive startup scene and get an Elon Musk from South Africa to create jobs and add meaningful value.

Russia, US, Australia, Canada are all like this. Probably many more. The world is a very small place when you look at where most people actually live.

On the move to where? Massive unemployment amongst youth and population collapse is on its way.

You are projecting a fantasy.

This has yet to happen in East Asia and probably never will.

America and countries that engaged in worldwide colonisation are the exception not the rule.

10xDev··on Norway set to become latest country to ban social media for under 16s
Today it will be <16, tomorrow 18. Doesn't really matter as long as the ball starts rolling.

First it was indoor smoking, now it will be for everyone born after 2008 in the UK.

10xDev··on Norway set to become latest country to ban social media for under 16s
Good, social media is cancer on society and will only get worse with LLMs, Deepfakes etc. All the astroturfing in favour of social media couldn't possibly change my mind on how harmful social media has been on society.
10xDev··on Microsoft offers buyouts up to 7% of US employees
It is overhiring. We are nowhere near close to some collapse: https://www.jetbrains.com/lp/devecosystem-data-playground/

If you try to pattern match using news headlines towards some belief, you will. But the statistics are often a lot more boring.

10xDev··on Japan implements language proficiency requirements for certain visa applicants
The worst I saw was a flood of American tourists in Shinjuku. What did you see that changed?

10xDev··on A whole civilization might die tonight
Israel is currently discussing a Hiroshima / Nagasaki model.
10xDev··on Impeaching Donald J. Trump for High Crimes and Misdemeanors [pdf]
It is Israel pushing for this.

"we’re hearing from strategists in Netanyahu’s party, talking about the use of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki models. We’re hearing from the PM and from his defence minister about crushing Iran, about decisively decimating the country, about having a hit list of the power grid in Iran that is just waiting for the go-ahead from the US president."

Too consistent, too frequent, too precise to be explained away as "stupid": https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/ce9mz0gl8z7o

>none of them would be advanced by bombing a girls school.

no shit... this is not proof of a mistake.

It wasn't sarcasm. We are on the same team here.

A double tap strike as well. Definitely no mistake: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2026_Minab_school_attack

Edit: *triple tap.

-Sent from Tel Aviv.
10xDev··on Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia
True, Kim Jong Un is actually pretty chill, just likes testing some nukes towards Japan as a hobby. Are people genuinely retarded? Or is it the severe Israel bias?
10xDev··on Iran launched unsuccessful attack on UK's Diego Garcia
So we can only reach stalemate once a country has nukes and otherwise have to start blowing up their schools?

Can we just leave countries alone, like we do with North Korea?
10xDev··on World Happiness Report 2026
No they just call you an antisemite and ask America to bomb you.
10xDev··on Oil and gas prices jump after Iran and Israel attack gasfields
>Israel hit Iran's South Pars - part of the world's largest natural gas field – and Tehran retaliated by striking an energy complex in Qatar.

I believe when lying doesn't help him. It doesn't matter if it is Qatar / Saudi if it still affects the US / Israel.

10xDev··on Oil and gas prices jump after Iran and Israel attack gasfields
It is pretty clear Iran is only going up the escalation ladder when Israel does. Even Trump blamed Israel for the escalation: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8x7leknlywo
