This was done like 12 months ago when they were worried it would bomb.

Turns out, no, it was just social media racist nonsense.

There's a very fun idea implication here that China is not constantly engaged in cultural stuff, and I assure you, this is absolutely not the case.

"While Britain was redefining what a woman is, China was building five nuclear reactors," says Kemi Badenoch.

I cannot be the only person curious about how these two things are related

If so, this was very stupid as Shadows sold great, lol.

Believed to be cancelled to avoid racist backlash.
The people were enthusiastic about the game but were also frustrated by its cancellation, which they perceived as Ubisoft bowing to controversy.

Three sources told Game File that word filtered through the company last July that management in Paris had stopped development of the game for two reasons: 1) online backlash that spring to the reveal of Yasuke, a historically-inspired Black samurai, as a protagonist in the company’s then-upcoming Assassin’s Creed Shadows; and 2) concern that the political climate in the United States was becoming increasingly tense.

“Too political in a country too unstable, to make it short,” one source familiar with the game and its cancellation told Game File.

Anyway, we're going to be bringing neoliberalism back very strongly, just with a wealth cap and with a greater focus on protecting the environment and the most vulnerable in society.

Hayes and the Eggman are badly misunderstanding the difference between the Eggman's AI apocalypse scenario and globalization.

The Eggman is claiming that *all jobs* could be eliminated and that would be fine. Globalization involves a job substitution that is fairly modest.

We literally just tested voter preferences on this and they overwhelmingly rejected the rejection of neoliberalism.

Basically this was the entire logic fo neoliberalism and globalization - yes lots of job destruction, but prices falling on all kinds of goods and new jobs in new areas. It was taken as gospel that all of it was a net benefit, but that's a bit harder argument to make these days.

(the current average child subsidy includes not only tax credits but also public school and children's health insurance)
samusishere.bsky.social
The "pro natalists" are talking about moving the average subsidy from like $10-15k a year to around $11-16k a year, and bruh, that is not going to make a fucking difference.
samusishere.bsky.social
Yeah, for the US in particular, I think the average child subsidy to induce significantly more children would have be increased by like $20k a year?

He had prime Randy Moss for that first one though.

I love when Andy Ngo does one of his David Attenborough-style posts about Antifa and highlights some kid who took a bong rip and waddled into the protest dressed like a giant muppet.

My favorite flavor of his commentary by far.
Andy Ngo wants to draw your attention to Barney the dinosaur

Once we figure out how quantum computing works (if it ever usefully works), we merely have to set up literally the entire industry afterwards.

" There's no company in Taiwan that will print you quantum chips on demand. There aren't millions of quantum engineers and software programmers waiting to be employed. The infrastructure does not exist. Quantum technology won't be scalable for decades - maybe half a century. "

Here's a good summary on the immense challenges faced by every quantum computing company if quantum computing is ever discovered to actually work.

Today could just be a badly designed algorithm that just auto buys quantum stock whenever quantum is in the news and the tone is positive, but the prior few months are also weird.
