Two things, both from this week. First, I asked Claude to write an article based on an idea I had about WWII. In a passage about the futility (from the German side) of the Battle of Britain it wrote: "The Luftwaffe was fighting to unlo

The article comes off as a laughable attempt to fire the arrow and then paint the target around it. For example the author claims about 9/11 that "the first attack had already achieved its aims: it dragged the U.S. into a protract

Iran isn't being attacked because it's not nice to its own people (which is a shame really, all dictators and theocrats should worry for their lives). It's being attacked because it has ballistic missiles, a nuclear weapons p

Thanks! It's historical fiction so 90% true :-) The novel is set during the First Jewish–Roman War[0] and I tried as much as possible to adhere to what we know of actual events. There's a good case to be made that the effect it ha

Getting my historical fiction novel published. I finished writing it a couple of months back. Extremely short plot summary: guy deserts from the Roman XI legion, goes back home only to find that his entire province is about to revolt agains

I think the commenters here relying on a more robust response if Putin invades a NATO country are being overly optimistic. Let's be honest with ourselves and recognize that without the US NATO is no match for Russia. Fragmented, with s

Where in the linked article does it say "Israel infiltrated high levels of government and got compromising information"?

"Job interviews help us grow professionally." I disagree. In most places job interviews mainly test for your ability to pass job interviews. So if the job title you're going for is interviewee then maybe. But if you see yours

Meh. First, the articles cited all have the same familiar problems of statistical psychology studies - small sample size drawn from psychology students. Also, unrelatedly, I find ancient stories in many cases better than modern ones because

Possibly downvoted because of no references. So first, cats are a menace to wild animals. Second, "We estimate that free-ranging domestic cats kill 1.3–4.0 billion birds and 6.3–22.3 billion mammals annually"[0]. Entirely humans&#

I think you're very much mistaken about the risks involved. For example[0]. I really have a hard time understanding people who think the US is worse than China. China is orders of magnitude worse. Sure, the NSA may spy on your electron

Simply disallow startup acquisitions for companies above a certain value/marketshare. This will prevent them from killing competition. For example the social networking space would probably have been disrupted several times by now had

Not sure what the author's point is. That all spies are incompetent? KGB infiltrated UK's intelligence establishment successfully, got the plans for the nuclear bomb and the space shuttle etc. etc. So clearly at least one organiza

Presumably this is the same Moody's that predicted the 2008 crash so well? Why does anyone even listen to them anymore? They failed miserably at their role. https://www.theguardian.com/business/2017/jan/1

Personally I think Brexit was a bad idea but I don't understand the sentiment in the article. Back when Obama was using big data (and yes, big money) to win the election he was hailed as smart and tech-savvy. Now when it's the Bre

Hmmm..."capitulation to global financiers", "stateless rentier classes", methinks I sense a common theme here. Not a supporter of David Irving by any chance are you?

I believe GP is referring to Islam, not Arabs. Islam is responsible for none of the things you mentioned.
