It's pointless to listen to health advice from anyone who used performance enhancing drugs. The improvements for him came from the drugs

It's going to follow the path that the internet took. At the beginning of the internet, most pages were created by individuals. Even company web sites were normally created by a small team. You could trust the information. Then the ad networks started along with SEO and content marketing.

Right now you can relatively trust LLM results but then people will find a way to manipulate the output and ads will get inserted and trust will be lost.

True, there may be complications if you travel to Japan from a 3rd country. It might be something they are aware of. I imagine most trips are directly from the other country of citizenship/residence.

I agree with you but we've seen that many people will just blame the immigrants. It's easier to blame change that you can visibly see rather than change that is forced to happen due to abstract demographic trends. No one has a good solution for this. If immigration gets too high, citizens will vote for parties that support anti-immigrant policies to bring it back in line.

Doesn't it mostly stem from demographics? Developed countries are experiencing lower natural population growth so some have tried to make that up with immigration. Our economy and centralized fiscal policies generally assume a growing population. Without that, there's little that can be done. Automation can be used to increase productivity but that also faces a backlash from people worried about their jobs. People will blame the problems on politicians but the problem is beyond them.

They allow it until the kids are 19. Then they are supposed to make a decision about which one they want to keep.

You shouldn't always optimize for the long term. You should optimize for the reality of the environment that you're in. In large, public companies, that usually means looking ahead normally 1-2 quarters unless there are exceptional projects with leadership buy-in.

Unless you're working on the absolute cutting-edge, you don't need every member of the team to be at the top of their game. It's happened many times in sports that a team full of too many superstars underachieves.

This sounds a lot like what some lazy people will say "I could be a doctor/astronaut/millionaire/movie star. I just don't want to"
