@D162Michele By 1995 there was partial democracy. Concern over relations with China with the transfer of power coming held back fuller implementation. Read Chris Patten on this. Beijing then downgraded what had been achieved with candidate vetting and repression of opposition.

@tradwifetoday Yall just pretend like infant suffocation when co-sleeping doesn't happen. Or that the women were just careless, as if they have any control over their body when it is unconscious. Only takes rolling slightly on top of the baby one time. Once. Then he/she is gone forever.

@anannoyedtexan @parthingle_x That’s only because you still make more money in Hong Kong than Shenzhen. The ideal situation is to live in Shenzhen but work in HK; but this isn’t very easy. It will change once the new immigration terminal is built.

@parthingle_x I think it’s telling how people from Hong Kong don’t want to live in Shenzhen. We shouldn’t idolize what they have over there at all.

everyone wants to copy Shenzen into America, no one wants to run a 5% margin business with constant cutthroat competition

Hardware Supply Chain @dessaigne In Shenzhen, a team can go from design to a new physical part in a day. In the US, that same loop often takes weeks, and that gap compounds. The overall stack for rapid hardware iteration still doesn't exist in America, and we want to fund the startups building it.

@NoahRyanCo At what point do we stretch into harmful endurance

Noah Ryan@NoahRyanCo·
Anybody with eyes can see that endurance sports are bad for you. Your joints degenerate. muscle wastes away, nervous system burns out, tissue degrades. Repeated cardiac strain causes chronic energy deficits, high cortisol, and suppressed hypothalamic signaling. Your natural antioxidant function can't keep up with the constant catabolic damage. Endurance athletes have up to 10x greater prevalence of Atrial fibrillation. Everybody has heard of a health freak athlete who died of sudden heart complications. Now we're seeing increased incidence of colon cancer in long-distance runners. I'm all for people destroying themselves in pursuit of greatness, but lets not pretend that endurance training is good for you.

The Sirius Report@thesiriusreport·
It is the exact opposite. China has rightly taken the heat out of its real estate market. This was an asset bubble that needed deflating. They have managed to do this without crashing their real estate market. The Western real estate market is going to have to do the same thing only in our case that will involve it crashing and burning.

🚨 BREAKING CHINA’S REAL ESTATE MARKET JUST CRASHED TO A 20-YEAR LOW, LOSING A 1/4 OF ITS VALUE. SOMETHING EXTREMELY BAD IS HAPPENING…

This isn't even funny for me to watch anymore. Her cutting herself off to call him a "newcomer", her laughing along with him that he's shitting on the beach, it's all so tiresome. You giggle while your nation collapses.

@DejaRu22 This has nothing to do with Israel. People look at New Zealand because it’s remote, politically stable, and unlikely to be a primary target in most conflicts. More armed men in the average rural American household than all of NZ's military.

Fun fact: there are more billionaire doomsday bunkers in New Zealand than the rest of the world, combined! One of the main reasons for this? No idea. Anyway, here is the alleged range of Israel’s JERICHO III nuclear missiles

Serenity owned 1% of sivers when it's market cap was around $100m to $150m if I'm not wrong.. On April 16th its market cap was around ~$730M and on that day he posted $sive will 10X from current levels.. If the stock 10x from April 16th levels as he claims, his position will be worth close to $65M if there is no further dilution.. Also worth noting he leaked the nasdaq listing news on April 13th before official PR from the company on April 16th about nasdaq listing and dilution.. Is it legal ? marketscreener.com/news/prosecuto…

There are two Canadas. There is the one the Boomers live in, where their homes are paid off, they go to their cottages, their homes have increased in value to insane levels. These people love Mark Carney. Then there is the rest of us, who are watching the entire system collapse.

“just spend 2 weeks in China, and I am still retarded”
brian@bdguan

just spent 2 weeks in china. went into it thinking we're cooked. came back more bullish on america than ever. here's why: 1. chinese citizens are way more chronically online. on the subway, train, anywhere, literally everyone is glued to their phone. gaming, short form, wechat. "don't walk and look at your phone, it's dangerous!" announcements flood crowded areas. their tiktok isn't any better, its still garbage, soft-core porn, etc. 2. everyone's using AI — deepseek, kimi, doubao. but nobody's afraid of losing their job to it. here it feels like there's an existential crisis every week. in china, nothing. i think the CCP won't let companies mass-layoff workers. great for short-term stability. terrible for long-term competitiveness on a global scale. 3. china doesn't produce weirdos. i sat in on a class at tsinghua (china's MIT). not one student spoke unless the professor read their name out loud. no questions. no debate. chinese education produces world-class executors, not contrarians. it does make it a safer place to live though. 4. china doesn't have christianity but it has something america doesn't have: a shared story everyone believes in. every person age 25-70 watched their country go from abject poverty to skyscrapers in one lifetime. that kind of collective proof has a deep unifying effect. compare that to how divided we are right now. america has a huge meaning vacuum that needs to be filled. nevertheless, i return back to my home in america reinvigorated. because everything i saw confirms one thing: china optimizes. america innovates. and the innovators always win.

@minordissent It's one of those weird arguments where you think it's witty as a kid, grow out of it as an adult, then realize once you've experienced adulthood how accurate it is.
