So you were arguing a hypothetical point that hasn’t actually happened. I’m not sure what the point of that is, you’re essentially shoehorning people in a position that you believe they might take, despite them not actually having done so (and possibly wouldn’t take in the first place).

Word of advice: don’t. People tend to not respond well to what is essentially a strawman argument. Don’t focus on hypotheticals but on what has actually happened and what people are actually arguing in favour of. Otherwise you’re having an imaginary discussion with imaginary people.

So either the rules hold, and the seizing was legitimate, or they don’t hold anymore, meaning it doesn’t matter it was seized?

What were you arguing again?

Both Hamas and Israel seem to agree it is a war? Hamas stated goal was to create a “permanent state of war” with Israel, and Netanyahu announced that Israel was at war as well. You think they’re only pretending or something?

I’m not sure what the point of denying that it is a war is? It doesn’t undercut the genocide perpetrated by Israel in any way, nor does it justify it. Perhaps you could explain this as I’m not following.

It can be both.

Wouldn’t follow up or ask hard questions about combined metrics. It’s in their best interest to be enthusiastic about the numbers and push them to less critical media outlets everywhere, so the share price goes up.

Sure, but a nuclear program is kinda hard to hide. Even spy sattelites will likely spot the signs, and good luck blocking those.

You can’t fully verify it, but Claude is somewhat chatty. It’ll output its whole “thought process”, which can be reviewed. I recently had Claude write some C# analyzers for me, which I don’t quite know how to write from scratch. I can easily review its reasoning and correct it if it makes a mistake. It’ll say something like “Oh, I need to change X or Y” and you can then tell it it’s an idiot and correct it.

It’s by no means perfect and it does need a good reviewer though. I’ve seen it just “give up” fixing a test, subsequently deleting the test entirely. If you’re a good code reviewer, you can probably fairly effectively use these tools.

Espionage.

I’d rather have the war stop though.

I just explained that the shareholders wouldn’t do that, because that only risks the shareprice going down, which is against their interests.

At a shareholders meeting/end of year report/etc… Does matter as long as it goes public.

Because Microsoft presented numbers that chuds think sound good, so they will want to buy their shares, pushing the share price up. The people who own shares but know the numbers are fud will shut up because idiots are buying their shares at a premium. The people without shares who know better won’t buy shares, which doesn’t affect the price, and Microsoft just replies nothing to their questions.

Depending on the specific flavour of Android, afaik. Not generally.

Pahlavi himself iirc never ruled and criticised his father who did, so not sure how correctly he can be characterized as an “autocrat”. He might well be genuine. But yes, it’s obvious that there’s foreign countries who’d much prefer him over the theocracy.

The share price might change, as that’s largely based on feelings instead of facts. Sure they didn’t sell as well, but they presented numbers that look better (even if they aren’t) so line go up.

Well, only on the right screen sizes it is. Otherwise the ‘classic’ variant gets disabled.

As far as I could tell the Shah guy isn’t actually intent on becoming a monarch (he was fairly critical of his dad) but wants to help Iran transition towards democracy. How he does that, no clue.

Still, apparently that guy is the dude most Iranians trust to take over. I say most, but it’s still barely 30% iirc; Iranians are pretty disillusioned with their (potential) leaders at the moment.

As a shareholder, you are financially incentivised to not question narratives the company presents if they supposedly present the company in a good light.

Suppose you do ask, the narrative unravels and the share price tanks. Congrats, you’ve just lost a buttload of money. Why would you do that?

No, best option is to applaud loudly, tout it in the press and watch useful idiots buy your shares at inflated prices.

The people who do ask the questions are the people the company doesn’t feel obliged to answer.

When the battery dies, the glasses continue to function as a traditional pair of single-vision specs, ensuring the wearer is never left in the dark or have safety compromised such as when driving or operating machinery.

China also knows that other countries don’t exactly share that perspective. And it certainly won’t persuade Trump to not continue his anti-China policies.
