  • so they panic about picking the “right” one.

    One of the talking points is that women, when they can freely choose, very often go for the top 10% of men in terms of looks and income. That means of course there will be a lot of disappointment.

    A serious rethinking of a lot of things in society needs to happen. Relationships and children are one part of this.

  • If their society was more equal, I think they’d be able to marry more for love/desire/want than security.

    They'd have that possibility, but in at lot of western countries where that possibility is larger marriage rates are lower than in China.

  • USA's secretary of defense is already saying that Ukraine should let go of the occupied territories, will not be allowed in NATO and will not get any security guarantees. Basically saying to let Russia win and opening the door for more invasions by Russia.

  • There are some rumours about this. A lot of women and their families expect the husband to have a car, house, well paying job and paying a five figure (in USD) bridal price, while preferably be below 30 years. With the economy as it is, few men qualify. It's also expected from a lot of men to give his complete wage to the wife. Government goes along with that, and flavors the women in a divorce. Turns out a lot of guys just say f this, and don't get married anymore.

  • I suspect for a bunch of projects, AI going to make programming itself obsolete. If it comes pre-trained to use a number of libraries, protocols and databases, giving the thing a bunch of specifications and scenarios and let it do the actual work of doing bookkeeping or whatever becomes possible. Most managers would jump on the idea to throw extra hardware at a problem to run AI locally is it means shipping in half the time. As long as the problem to solve is generic enough and not too big. And those limits will go up quickly.

  • Eventually it comes down to the military. If the military decide to park their tanks in front of the white house and shoot or bombs protesters it's game over. If they decide the president is a traitor and go after him then he's gone.

  • First they used venture capitalist's money. It was just free mana from heaven during the period with near zero interest rates after the 2008 financial crisis. They used that money to get market share by making deliveries very cheap. Intrest rates went up, they went public to get more money, and then it was time to see how much that market could bear and rake in the profits.
