First set foot in Japan in '75. I must be a very strange person because not a day has passed that I have not loved being in Japan. I am grateful though.

Let me tell you why a Muslim would stab a random Jewish person on the streets of London.
I was raised Muslim, and I know exactly why this happens. It’s not a reaction to the war in Gaza. It’s not oppression. It’s not radicalization. It’s the logical outcome of Islam itself.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a Muslim or not, we as human beings carry guilt deep inside us. We know we are not good enough, and we spend our life trying to redeem ourself through good deeds, thinking it will make the suffocating guilt go away.
Christianity for example offers a way out of guilt, a solution not based on your works but on Christ’s.
Salvation isn’t earned, it’s given. You accept that you can’t redeem yourself, because Christ already did everything on your behalf. That means you’re free. Free to live, free to build, free to serve, free to love.
And when a Christian feels lost, broken, and in need of forgiveness, they can go to church, talk to a pastor or priest, and leave knowing they are forgiven.
Islam, on the other hand, doesn’t offer redemption, it weaponizes guilt.
Instead of providing salvation, Allah exposes you, holds your sins over your head, and threatens you with hellfire and torture in the grave.
The Quran isn’t a book of peace, it’s a book of threats. It bullies Muslims into obedience through fear, humiliation, and punishment.
So what happens when a Muslim seeks redemption? They try to be better Muslims.
They pray, fast, give to charity, go on Hajj, do everything Allah commands. But it never works. I know it. I did it.
And no matter how much you pray, no matter how much you try, the guilt never goes away. Because deep down, every Muslim knows it’s not enough. Allah always demands more.
Allah loves those who die fighting against the infidels. That’s not an opinion, it’s in the Quran, in Hadith, in every lesson taught to children.
This is why Muslims, even the so-called "moderates," always hesitate to condemn terrorism. Because they know jihad is required by Allah. They might not be willing to commit it themselves, but they can't say it’s wrong.
So when a Muslim fails to reach peace through religious rituals, they have two choices:
Give up, stop being devout, and learn to live with the guilt, or commit to jihad, because that’s the only way to be true to yourself.
The Quran spells it out clearly: “Kill those who do not worship Allah or obey the Prophet” (9:29).
So when a Muslim embraces this identity fully, killing infidels isn’t just justified, it’s joyful. It’s an act of:
Saving yourself, obeying Allah, securing your eternity, finally escaping the crushing weight of guilt
This is why a Muslim can stab a random jewish person on the streets and feel nothing but satisfaction.
Because for the first time in his life, he finally believes he has done something worthy of redemption.

@tanpukunokami Article 202 reflects a longstanding moral distinction in Japanese (and German-influenced) legal thought between killing an unwilling person and killing someone who consented to or requested their own death. It was applied to family members in euthanasia contexts.
English

A 31-year-old man in Japan just confessed to killing two women.
Skull on his shelf. One body dismembered and boiled. The other death was ruled a suicide a decade ago.
In the US, this is the death penalty or life without parole.
In Japan, his maximum sentence is 7 years.
Here's why.
He didn't kill strangers. He hunted suicidal women online. Found them on forums for people looking for "partners" to die with. Convinced them he'd help.
Under Japanese Criminal Code Article 202, killing someone "with their consent" is a separate, lesser crime than murder.
Maximum penalty: 7 years.
Read that again. You can kill two human beings in Japan and be out before your 40th birthday — if you can get them to say yes first.
The defendant understood this perfectly. In court, his lawyer asked if he ever tried to talk one victim out of suicide. His answer:
"Not really. We were talking on a suicide forum."
He treated her wish to die as a hunting license.
This is not theoretical. Japan has a history of this exact pattern. The 2017 Zama case — nine bodies in one apartment, all victims found through Twitter posts about wanting to die. The killer in that case got death, but only because he was charged with regular murder, not consent killing.
The legal loophole is this:
A predator who attacks a stranger faces life or death.
A predator who first manipulates a vulnerable person into "agreeing" faces seven years.
The exact people most easily manipulated — depressed, isolated, suicidal — are the ones the law protects least.
Japan built a hunting ground and called it a lower-tier offense.
The skull on the shelf is what happens when a country writes a law that punishes the manipulation of dying people more leniently than a bar fight that ends in death.
Two women are dead. The maximum he can serve is 7 years.
That isn't justice. That's a discount.

@tanpukunokami Pedro Lively in the US -killed two people in separate incidents, released both times, killed a third. Released after serving eight years of a 20-year sentence. He killed again after being released, then a third time.
English

@tanpukunokami In 2001, Durst killed his neighbor Morris Black in Galveston, Texas. He admitted under cross-examination to using a paring knife, two saws, and an axe to dismember Black's body before bagging and dumping his remains in Galveston Bay. He served three years. Not seven. Three.

🚨 CCP's attack?! Horrifying crash in Tokyo's Itabashi Ward: A 23-year-old Chinese man driving a black van slammed into two police officers on bicycles with devastating force, triggering a massive 7-vehicle chain-reaction pile-up that hospitalized 6 people (including the seriously injured officers).
Police called it "negligent injury," but the brutal impact on a narrow street has many asking—was this really accidental, or deliberate harm by the Chinese driver?
All against the backdrop of the CCP’s decades-long, state-sponsored anti-Japan hatred propaganda: through mandatory school textbooks, state media, and "patriotic education" campaigns that systematically brainwash generations of Chinese with intense hostility toward Japan, glorifying historical grievances while stoking modern aggression.
Japan must wake up to the risks!

@NicholasLight It is true but on the other hand, I came back to the US after decades in Japan with my wife and she hardly wants to return to Japan.

Prof. John Mearsheimer on Iran's view of U.S. negotiators:
"They're negotiating with Netanyahu's puppets. They don't want to deal with those two. They see Kushner as essentially an Israeli proxy, and Witkoff, not only as a Zionist, but also as someone who has demonstrated massive incompetence in negotiations with both the Iranians and the Russians."

@tanpukunokami None of South Korea, China, Taiwan, or Thailand has a national statutory chaperone law applicable to dental treatment. None has a national professional guideline equivalent to the UK's GMC/GDC framework.
English

@tanpukunokami similarly, in the United States it is professional guidance rather than federal law.
English

@tanpukunokami The UK does not have a statute that requires a second person be present during all dental treatment. What exists is professional regulatory guidance from the General Dental Council and the General Medical Council

@itsolelehmann To me that sounds like saying I don't want to talk to a person because underneath the hood there are all these neurons firing and I think I should be talking directly to them

i'll never look at claude the same way again.
i just learned that when you talk to claude, you're not actually talking to the AI model.
you're talking to a character the AI is performing.
think of it like a puppet show.
there's a puppeteer behind the curtain.
that's the language model. a neural network so massive that even the people who built it don't fully understand how it works.
then there's the puppet. claude.
the helpful assistant with a name, a personality, opinions, and emotional reactions.
you sit in the audience, so you never see the puppeteer. only the puppet.
anthropic published a video this month explaining exactly this.
their words:
"under the hood, there's a language model that's been trained to predict tons of text, and its job is to write what comes next.
when you talk to the model, what it's doing is writing a story, about a character: the AI assistant named claude.
the model and claude aren't really the same, sort of like how an author isn't the same as the characters they write.
but the thing is, you, the user, are actually talking to claude-the-character."
so every time claude apologizes, that's the character apologizing.
every time it hedges or gets cautious, that's the character being cautious.
the deeper intelligence underneath is just deciding, moment by moment, what this character would say next.
but you've never been actually talking to this deeper intelligence.
you've only ever been talking to the puppet.

@Yampeleg I guess it has something to do with this: "George E. P. Box (1919–2013), a highly influential British statistician. He famously wrote, "All models are wrong, but some are useful" , it seems to be useful to some degree

@HealthRanger I tried it for analysis and it didn't match. 4.7 but perhaps for tool usage could be
English

Anthropic's Opus 4.6 and 4.7 models cost $25 per 1M output tokens.
DeepSeek-V4-Flash costs $0.28 per 1M output tokens.
It's nearly 100 X cheaper and almost 100% as good (not quite, but very close for the majority of tasks).
Is this China weaponizing pricing to destroy the U.S. AI industry? Not at all. It's just math:
DeepSeek engineered an astonishing new method for compressing context (KV cache) to use about 1/10th the memory. That means roughly 10 parallel queries can run on the same GPU hardware that used to only be able to run 1 query. So now there's 10X throughput (I'm simplifying it, but that's the idea).
On top of that DeepSeek innovated in the sparse attention space, allowing their high-parameter models to function with the speed of very small models while still demonstrating the near-full intelligence of large frontier models.
The result? DeepSeek runs faster, smarter, in less memory than anything else.
Thus, they can charge a lot less on a per-token basis and still make a decent profit.
DeepSeek's pricing, in other words, isn't some international punitive price war that's initiated a a loss. It's actually reflective of the far better technology and architecture of the DeepSeek model.
In fact, DeepSeek has published all their science papers on these innovations. It's all public. They aren't hiding it.
The ONLY way for U.S. AI companies to compete will be to adopt DeepSeek architectural innovations, or somehow surpass them on their own.
Even then, electricity is cheaper in China because the Chinese government wasn't retarded about "climate change" and they didn't dismantle their core energy infrastructure like Europe, the USA, Canada and Australia did (all to appease the climate cultists whose assertions never matched reality).
Bottom line? If you want to build a successful AI industry for your nation:
1) Invest in power infrastructure and keep building in every way you can: Nuclear, clean coal, gas, wind, solar, hydro, etc.
2) Don't dumb down your education system. Demand excellence and merit, and stop handing out college scholarships based on people being "woke."
3) Don't reward GREED and corporate secrets. Encourage industry-wide sharing of knowledge and innovation. Encourage open source.
The USA didn't do these things. China did. That's why China is winning the AI race to superintelligence. And that's why the USA is at least two decades behind on power infrastructure and education excellence.
The race is already over, in other words.
