From what I've read, the initial strike not only killed the new leader's father,, but also his wife and child. I'm pretty sure he will not be willing to easily negotiate with the United States after something like that.

Exactly. It's like they can't read. Everyone knew this shit was gonna happen.

It's pretty crazy to me that zuck let an actual academic like Yann LeCun go for a kid like Alex Wang. Seems like some very short term thinking.

Because I've worked there.

No, it's not because of that. It's because he was legit a bad cto. No one at the company liked him.

Seems the attacker had family members recently killed by Israel https://x.com/ryangrim/status/2032204336244171027

Unfortunate we have to face local blowback for a war no one but Israel wanted in a region that has nothing to do with us.

Are you sure about that? I couldn't find any sources stating that the US has formally been reduced to tier 3.

Crazy how much of the world suffers because of the desires of one tiny county of 9 million. Would we really be doing any of this if not for Israel?

I assume either Netanyahu or Miriam Adelson.

It turns out "idiocracy" is actually a documentary.

I've lived in both and while the similarities are there, it's a bit different. Singapore still has a majority non expat population while Dubai has only about a 10% local population. Singapore also invests heavily in local education with one of the highest densities of PhDs in the world.
