Movie producer Harvey Weinstein was notorious for getting successful new filmmakers to sign contracts with him to make movies for him and then doing nothing with them. Weinstein was actually stopping potential competition to his movies. He would lock them into contracts so they can't go make their own movies or movies for someone else and all it cost Weinstein was a signing fee.

There are those in the US who want to lure Chinese STEM talent away from China but they also don't trust Chinese in their R&D labs. This could be how the US keeps Chinese scientists and engineers out of the game.

I was watching 60 Minutes and was thinking how they were so excited about OpenAI and ChatGPT developments that they literally did two stories reporting on it months apart from one another. Normally they just do one story and move on to the next subject. It's been over two months since DeepSeek and not one story of the AI that rocked Silicon Valley and changed the AI landscape around the world forever.

Former Prime Minister Harper apparently said that he would rather see Canada improvised than be annexed by the Americans.

What a fucking bitch.

That is what they said about Harper, he was the biggest bitch around.

He grew up in one of the most wealthy and exclusive neighourhoods in Toronto, means he always had money, and government paid pension to boot for being a MP.

So if Canada slides into poverty, that is worth it, to this rich person.

What a bitch!

It’s kinda funny for the supposedly most imaginative master race in the history of man, the best Americans strategists can come up with is to do endless re-imaginings of WWII for how the future war against China will go.

Taiwan will be the crowning achievement for China’s final re-emergence as the world’s dominant power. Beijing is not going to even try to do that in a remotely underhanded, sneaky or nefarious manner, as doing so will tarnish and undermine that much greater prize.

I increasingly think the fight for Taiwan won’t actually involve Taiwan.

The Taiwan situation only exists because of America. So the logical foolproof solution to that Taiwan problem isn’t to try to bluff America or scare America, it’s to simply make America disappear. Because without America, Taiwan will return to the mainland without needing to fire a single shot.

I doubt the EU nazis dare to veto anything, they already shown their weakness on the ukraine UNSC vote earlier.



Trump doesn't want to put boots on the ground, but killing terrorists is something the whole world can get behind.
