I didn’t make it, but I don’t see why people get upset that there are more of these projects out there. Something existing certainly never stopped people from making their own before either.

I think it’s mostly that Iran was going through the motions with the MoU and didn’t want to escalate during that time.

Being slightly ahead in agentic coding was literally all the US companies had going for them. That’s gone now, so it’s basically game over now. By the way a great explanation of how models are built from Moonshot AI CEO Yang Zhilin https://tankie.tube/w/o4UNoNcySdowgVPP8Dc6Eu

Sadly we all know what the goal of your post was.

There is inequality, there is still capitalism being allowed as a compromise to global trade. Education system in China is pretty harsh and doesn’t give kids a lot of time to play and be kids. Work, especially in tech, is very competitive with long hours. There is no lack of contradictions in China today.

Yeah, I was hoping to connect the dots for people who are starting to think about these things. I often see people struggling with the idea that people can be happy in a society they themselves might not be happy in. It’s really easy to forget that our own values are not some universal standard, and doubly so for people who have no other point of reference aside from the society they grew up in.

And I had a similar experience as well, like you read these things and just nod along because you’ve basically worked through the problem yourself and arrived at the same place. In a way it does feel good to see your own thinking validated though. :)

the thread in one picture

why would I want to interact with imbeciles more?

d’aww so adorable of you to start projecting

Says dumb shit in public, acts all offended when called out on said dumb shit. Go clutch your pearls elsewhere loser.

true

Thank you for taking your valuable time away from huffing gas to grace us all with your insights.

Incidentally, Asimov wrote a great review of 1984 basically calling Orwell an emotionally stunted manchild who wrote a tantrum disguised as a novel. Orwell was a guilt ridden rich kid who played hippie in the slums then got his feelings hurt in Spain and spent the rest of his life writing revenge fantasies against Stalin instead of actually trying to understand how the world works.

1984 was just boring and lifeless rant where nothing happens, and the technology is nonsensical like having humans watch every citizen on camera instead of just using computers which even Asimov in the 1980s could see was laughably inefficient. Orwell couldn’t imagine women as anything but brainless sex objects or proles as anything but subhuman animals and he thought ballpoint pens were worse than actual scratching steel nibs. The guy was a technophobic elitist with zero forward vision who projected his personal grudge onto the future and millions of people treat his little hissy fit like prophecy. It’s frankly incredible that his shallow writing became a cultural icon in the west.

Literally nobody here says that China is perfect or that there aren’t bad things about China. The reality is that no human society is perfect, but ones not run by pedo kleptocrats are objectively better than ones that are.

seems like the person regurgitating propaganda lines out of context may in fact be the one with the brain rot
