The lack of working Iron Dome would mean that Israel would have to go on a big offensive. The lack of US aid will elevate Israel's war posture, not decrease it. People seem to keep…

It's really not the same thing. Jews have a very long history of being oppressed by Muslims and Christians.

I have seen no evidence for that, only the opposite: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.11610 Intuitively, training a simple enough linear statistical model with its own output should be a…

It's way harder to scam people with AI/ML stuff compared to crypto since it fundamentally doesn't involve transfers of large sums of money. Well perhaps venture capitalists, but it…
