I really don’t see… …why someone with Chinese roots would do it

Tankies hate the West. Psychotic nationalists are capable of all sorts of dumb.

What distribution are you on?

I’m assuming this is about the British? If that’s the case then I say a hands off approach because it would be interesting to see if they develop any culinary skills. Who knows, maybe if their society evolves enough, they might even be capable of participating in economic trade with others. Stranger things have happened.

One or more people on the board were upset with Sam pushing Open AI towards a “for profit” business model because they wanted to be all altruistic and not paywall things. But they were completely ignorant of the expensive reality of their tech (look up the tons of articles about Open AI burning through money) and after firing Sam, likely got a rude awakening from people in the company showing them the books. Once they realized their out of business in less than a year if they don’t monetize things, suddenly Sam’s ideas aren’t so bad and they know they just fucked the entire company over.

I think the way most Germans have owned the mistakes of Germany past, instead of trying to deny or ignore them, is an example that should be applauded and emulated by the rest of the world.

However, will does not strike me

Because Hamas kidnapped some American citizens and is holding them in Gaza. The US would likely prefer to attempt any rescue themselves or at least assist in any attempts.

Not a movie, but if you want scary you should try browsing real estate websites, the prices are truly horrific.

Welcome to McDonald’s, can I take your order?

Apparently I get my world news from the history books, here’s a few examples you can look up:

• 1967 Israel takes control of the entire Sinai Peninsula

• 1971 Israel returns Sinai Peninsula to Egypt

• 1982 Israel invades Lebanon after attacks from militants

• 1983 - 1985 Israel slowly withdraws from most of southern Lebanon

• 2000 Israeli completes withdrawal from Lebanon

• 2005 Israel withdraws all military and civilians from the Gaza Strip and hands over control to the Palestinian Authority

• 2007 Hamas violently overthrew the PA in Gaza (bet you didn’t cry about this)

• 2023 Israel withdraws from Jenin in the West Bank after invading

Never claimed otherwise. In fact, I literally mentioned Israel stealing land when I wrote:

their approach of taking tiny bites has been subtle enough to avoid causing repercussions, so they most likely just go back to doing that at a later date.

I guess that was too abstract?

You think Israel will just stop and leave the Southern half?

Even if they did, they’re keeping the northern part and annexing it.

I’m opposed to what Israel is doing but the truth is that Israel has repeatedly given back land they have captured during conflicts. So yes, they will not be annexing any land. As well, there is way too much international attention on them right now, whereas their approach of taking tiny bites has been subtle enough to avoid causing repercussions, so they most likely just go back to doing that at a later date.

The thing I don’t understand about this invasion is what’s stopping Hamas from just relocating south with the rest of the Palestinians? Sure they’ll lose some heavier equipment that might be hard to move but they don’t have that much of it to begin with. If they stay and fight they’ll lose the equipment anyways, and only end up getting killed. Whereas if they leave with the civilians, then Israel will look stupid after invading Gaza only to find nothing. Huge failure for them.

You obviously don’t know what you are talking about.

China embarks on production of a new generation of nuclear-armed submarines that for the first time are expected to pose a challenge to growing U.S. and allied efforts to track them. not sink themselves

FTFY

You know after WW2 in like 1947 (or 48?), prior to to the birth of Israel, the UN drafted a plan to divide what is now modern day Israel into two states; one for the Jewish inhabitants and one for the Palestinians, PLUS Jerusalem was to be a UN controlled international city. The Jewish community accepted the offer, the Palestinians turned it down because they wanted Jerusalem all to themselves as well as wanting all the Jews dead (them and the rest of the Arab world).

So yeah, the Palestinians could have been celebrating like the 75th anniversary of their own state by now had they not been so full of hate.

That of course is no excuse for Israeli apartheid. Both sides are assholes.

My understanding is that that’s what’s used to extract the targeted protein marker from the virus genome, so not only does it help, it’s a key component in developing an mRNA vaccine.

Damn you for making me laugh, now I’m an asshole too!

It’s an absolute game changer.

People tried to compare the COVID vaccine development time to previous vaccines without understanding the difference in how the mRNA vaccines are made. You essentially just need to sequence the virus’s genome (which is miraculously easy to do these days because of other amazing people’s incredible efforts), then target a protein from the virus’s exterior and use that snippet in the mRNA vaccine. This radically reduces the time it takes to develop a vaccine as well as increase it’s effectiveness because of the control you have over the vaccine’s selected target.
