Remember Trump's tweet from 2019[0]. I wonder which other country benefits the most from dragging the US into this war? Oh, right.

    The United States has spent EIGHT TRILLION DOLLARS fighting and policing in the Middle East. Thousands of our Great Soldiers have died or been badly wounded. Millions of people have died on the other side. GOING INTO THE MIDDLE EAST IS THE WORST DECISION EVER MADE.....

US presidents have a history of saying one thing on the campaign trail and doing another once they're in office. Clinton said he was going to do health care reform during the campaign, but signed the welfare to work, mandatory sentencing and glass-steagall repeal when he was in office.

Although... just looked at the date on that tweet. He was still in office for his first term at the time. So... yeah... modernity is not a place to look for consistent statements from political figures.


Exactly. Remember Trump's tweet from 2019[0]. But the zionist lobby is holding the US hostage.

Could you imagine 8 trillion dollars reverted to the welfare of american citizens?

How much affordable housing, higher education and healthcare 8 trillion dollars could have bought for american citizens?


It's as if it would be heaven, if not for the greed of man.

The sad thing is that rulers never learn from history. There's no winner in this.

Constraints breed creativity.


Francesca got balls more than all world leaders combined.

This was going to burn you out no matter what, unless you got the business chops and the stamina to be in it for the long term.

My advise: stay at your job and ride this wave, don't try to go under it. To countrbalance, work on hobby projects that scratch an itch for you. Work at your own pace for fun, not for profit. The value you get out of it is satisfaction rather than money (which is what your day job is for).


I use both at the same time:

- Claude Opus for general discussion, design, reviews, etc.

- Codex GPT-5.4 High for task breakdown and implementation.

I often feed their responses to each other (manual copy/paste) to validate/improve the design and/or implementation. The outcome has been better than using one alone.

This workflow keeps Claude's usage in check (it doesn't eat as much tokens), and leverages Codex generous usage limits. Although sometimes I run into Codex's weekly limit and I need to purchase additional credits: 1000 credits for $40, which last for another 4-5 days (which usually overlap with my weekly refresh, so not all the credits are used up).


The list keeps growing.

- Flour massacre

- World Central Kitchen drone strikes

- Gaza aid distribution massacres

- Rafah paramedics massacre

- Targeting of journalists

- Forced starvation

- Crop destruction

Israel will deny all of those. But the world have seen it with their own eyes.

There seem to be two fundamentally incompatible interpretations of "Never again" [1]. I thought it was a no brainer for universal adoption, but TIL that for some it means more of the same.

Let's not forget all the raping of prisoners

And the killing of Hind Rajab, her family, and the paramedics that went to help her.

Raping with the sharp end of knives requiring surgical intervention.

they are also coming in and taking lands from the Palestinians by being annoying. like tearing down the homes they try to fix.

It's a shame that such a good product is tarnished with reliability and capacity issues. I hope they get their act together, otherwise trust is eroding by the day.
