No, optimism is exactly not the result of confidence. Its cowardly avoidance and pushing problems aside.

Pessimism is the thought that it cannot be fixed and it is hopeless. Optimism is wishful thinking and avoidance. You want to aim for realism.

Thanks, this is exactly right. AI is useful insofar it can be made to conform to engineering principles.

The state, over time, becomes parasitic. This has always been the case.

Combined with universal suffrage and the welfare state to buy votes it is a recipe for decline and ruin.

The french state is bankrupt like all the other western democracies. They hide their pension obligations well, but that doesn’t change reality.

This system will continue to suck everything it can out of the young and the productive, because those are the incentives. There is no point at which it will stop, short of regime change.

In Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy (1979), Patrick Stewart has a short appearance near the very end as soviet KGB mastermind Karla.

Never have I seen such presence and charisma squeezed into so short a scene.

I don't think there exists a laptop with a similar value proposition as a MacBook Neo or a MacBook Air?

For phones its not as clear, I agree, but at least they added iPhone 17e starting at $599.
