@eliant_capital Not buying till this crap goes down 30%

@simonsarris Oh that's it. You put into words what I was feeling living in Sydney vs in my home small rural town in Italy. I could never fully articulate where the feeling of fakeness was coming from

Shoutout to Ukraine real quick.

This country was supposed to be a speed bump in Russia’s resurgence as a global power. Instead, they’ve proven to be extremely steadfast and innovative fighters and held Russia in place for 4 years.

Russia now holds less land than they did in Feb 2022.

Ukraine overcame a manpower shortage with robots. They’ve made 50 km from the frontline a dead zone with drones. They’ve turned Russia’s entire doctrine upside down.

A “large scale attack” from Russia is now 3 tanks covered in scrap metal, 4 motorcycles, and a platoon of dismounts.

Mad respect to Ukraine for getting this job done when Putin (and most of the world) expected them to roll over in a week.

@GuruAnaerobic Yes experience and vigilance help safety a lot, positioning on the road is key, but ultimately so many accidents are due to cars and trucks not seeing us riders.
Any impact can be fatal, humans are basically a bag of liquid at speed.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@ThHappyHawaiian Yes but the point is the double digit change. Like even 10% would be crazy. 28, 40, could as well be 20 still fkd

If they really want to push for more kids they need to make kids not only less expensive but profitable. Then I guarantee you’ll see an incredible boom.
What if the mother has no job because she needs to take care of 4 kids thus can’t take advantage of tax breaks? Imagine 4 babies and no need for a job while keeping financial independence. At least half of the population would do that.
Not sustainable? Then population declines till we reach a new equilibrium.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

Congratulations. Very happy for you. Sounds like a good life to me.
Just relaying a point of view, I think young people think that having kids being “the most rewarding and fulfilling thing I’ve ever done” is sad. Everyone can have kids is not that big of an accomplishment. Like being able to afford food, wow that’s worth living for /s . They think

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@IterIntellectus Don’t be surprised when nowadays incentives all point to the opposite direction.
Also your grandma had no choice, there was no effective birth control at the time sooner or later you get kids.
If you want more kids then make kids profitable in today’s world.

@VoronoiApp Australia seems to be wrong, much higher gdp per capita in 2026

@TheFlowHorse I can feel the effect when instead of a coffee I choose a couple cups of gunpowder green tea

@therobotjames Glad the issue is not [too much] or [not enough] liquidity. Keep strong mate

[Gandalv @Microinteracti1]

No serious nation in the history of warfare has spent fourteen months insulting its allies, siding with their common enemy, and then knocked on their door expecting them to rescue a catastrophe of its own making.

You abused the UK. Threatened Canada. Tried to grab Greenland. Called the EU an adversary. Praised Putin. Hosted Kremlin officials in the Capitol. Abandoned Ukraine. And did all of it loudly, proudly, and on camera.

And now you are surprised that nobody is returning your calls.
You want European boots on the ground? Start by explaining why America is more aligned with Moscow than with Brussels.
Take your time. We will wait.

@SA_Reeder_ @esrtweet They can, probably should. I doubt that it will turn out to be good for them. The world is smaller than it used to be and the us is a much smaller slice of the world economy than 100 years ago. The us thinks everyone needs them, it’s no longer the case imho.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@KochvilleDi @esrtweet No, it’s more like throwing your ailing 80 yo parents on the street because now they need support and are an inconvenience instead of a helping hand

Astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@simonsarris I agree in principle but I am not convinced that’s the actual goal, sounds very much like wmd and saddam. In any case, starving your allies doesn’t make them more willing to help and doesn’t buy goodwill. It risks pushing europe towards china, which is not good.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@simonsarris I think they are. Nato ideals are
Great. Problem is US unilaterally made a mess, put allies in terrible position with oil shortages on the horizon, and now wants european countries to pick up the bill and open the strait when public opinion is very against another war.

[Andrea Samorè @AndreaSamore]

@ukilaw Because another war for sure will improve living conditions

Denmark keeps impeccable statistics on crime, immigration, and, as shown here, crime committed by immigrants. And that's very important because the Western intuition on these numbers is usually completely off. Only remedy is repeated exposure to the data and the facts.
