@eigenrobot The Roman Empire was reinvigorated by emperors from the provinces. I basically agree with you, but this is my cope.

@eigenrobot I think the situation is extremely unstable and while Israel won't close the strait, they might end up destroying Iran's energy infrastructure after Iran inevitably tests boundaries.

@esaagar This is the stupidest analysis I have ever seen.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@eigenrobot I thought the food and money supply in Iran would have been strained by now, pressuring the IRGC to seek peace.

@NarcNormand @Noahpinion If you try reporting a crime in nyc you would see that they will do anything to try to throw out the case. Only when it is impossible to ignore will they record it.

@leninology Better to identify the problems now and fix them than wait to find the weakness and supply problems in an emergency.

@cool_eran @hkuppy The money will run out first. Then the food will run out. Iran does need to import food by sea.

@eigenrobot If I parse the words super carefully, I can see a slight difference in the treatment of autonomous weapons. I don't think the OpenAI deal limits autonomous lethal weapon as long as there is some vaguely defined "human responsibility."

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@michaelshermer The ambiguity is because both sides have supporting evidence.

@radigancarter I think it is far better for the uncomfortable facts to be out in the open so that the US can plan appropriately. Let Ukraine sink all of the Russian assets.

@RocketPulpHack @eigenrobot It would be a fantastic spectacle to prosecute a few rich moms with illegal housekeepers.

@eigenrobot I’ve proposed this to ChatGPT in the past and it made a bunch of international law objections….conquering is illegal, displacement is illegal, proportionality is required. All of history is now illegal.

@eigenrobot I can't believe that there isn't bi-partisan support to squash this nonsense and torpedo the deal.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

Israel might be #10 of US liabilities. You can argue over the value, but why not address the big ones - Taiwan by far the biggest, Japan, South Korea, Ukraine, Philippines, UK, Germany, Saudia Arabia...None of my kids is at risk from Israel, but they are from Taiwan. You are not looking at risk.

@cremieuxrecueil How do you control for foreign students? I presume they are not subject to similar legal protections and would bias the data as you observe.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@eigenrobot I believe Trump would finally cross the partisan divide and gain wide support if he put out a "Truth" that just says "lmao not our problem" in response to a closure of the strait.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@AlexBerenson @JoeBiden There wasn't a direct response to Operation Preying
Mantis. This time might be different, but not necessarily.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@eigenrobot I believe that when Hezbollah asked for help, Iran refused. What goes around comes around.

[Gritty Tea @GrittyTea]

@eigenrobot Why do we have troops in Iraq? The risk from Iran would be much less without troops in Iraq. We already have bases in SA, Kuwait, Qatar.

@AngelicaOung Iran shut down the suez canal with the houthis, launched rockets from Iraq, and launched rockets from Lebanon staring October 8th. Regarding US relations, Iran was directly involved in the killing and maiming of thousands of American soldiers from Lebanon to Iraq.
