Do you have any numbers? Because the numbers for the 50501 protests seem really small to me as a German.
Props to those who organize and participate of course!

almost bragging how little time they took after their kids were born
I had a coworker bragging about lying to his wife that he couldn’t take time off. This is fucked up on so many levels: why even have a kid? Why do you lie to your wife? Why are you telling people you barey know (I had been there for like two weeks) that you lie to your wife? WTF?
I feel like I’m missing something.
Maybe they’re insecure? They don’t know what to do with the new kid, and instead of figuring it out together with their partner they run back to the things they know and hide behind a fake martyrdom. I wonder how many of them will in a few months or years say that women are “naturals” when it comes to taking care of kids.
Congrats on the kid and on being an actual dad!
In a war there are (at least) two sides that are fighting. This is more like a massacre.
Not just the economy. He’s also getting a lot of people killed, injured and traumatized.
It honestly felt like watching a rational adult deal with his children complaining they can’t have a sleepover or something.
Except the children’s behavior will also get a lot of people killed and possibly a whole nation enslaved.
So his approach to reducing bureaucracy is having everyone document and explain what they do?
“Spent some time with my kids.”
You have (at least) two groups of people with traumatic experiences from mutual violence continuing for generations and you think there is a simple solution?
This is a lot of things, but not mildly infuriating.
I was told there would be checks and balances.
From what I’ve read, bigger models don’t necessarily mean better results - at least not past a certain point.
Poland for example shifted to the left (or at least democracy).
I mean, project managers have been not caring about professional coders since way before the current LLM hype.
It’s interesting how the headline makes it sound like this was a new demand from Netanyahu. But apparently it was part of the deal and Hamas did not send the list due to “technical difficulties”.
Drinking too many of these drinks too often can lead to weight gain and insulin resistance
This sounds like insulin resistance could happen additionally to weight gain.
Apparently, that was some other Zuckerberg project: https://www.metro.us/everything-to-know-about-facemash-the-site-zuckerberg-created-in-college-to-rank-hot-women/
That’s not true - I’m complaining about the bugs in our software almost every day!
I agree with the sentiment, but I don’t think being “ashamed” is the way to go - I only feel shame for things I have done.
But otherwise I agree. They just held their party convention with the speaker being flanked by 8 German flags on the left on 8 on the right - so 88. And held up signs “Alice for Deutschland” (one of their leaders was convicted for using the SA slogan “Alles für Deutschland”). So yeah, they’re fascists and ~20% of voters want to vote for them. It’s disgusting.
Politicians are afraid it might make them unpopular among the racist part of the population.
I know the US is different than Europe, that’s why I mentioned my POV.
And I still don’t really understand it, because the numbers are really very different. Oklahoma City (without the metropolitan area) is about as big as my as my hometown Bremen. We just had protests because our chancellor-to-be collaborated with the fascist party - we were about 1500 people, with about 24 hours notice. Big protests are up to 25000-50000 people. And as you said, other protests in the US were way bigger.
So I don’t think “time for preparation” is an important factor, especially as it is not really a surprise that Trump became president and is doing shitty things. Unless protests in the US are more complicated for some reason I don’t see yet?
From an outside perspective, I would guess it’s more about work culture - people being burnt out, no protections from getting fired. This might lead to less of a protest culture culture overall maybe. Which is also weird, because the US also has seen some very well known and successful protest movements.
Bonus: current Hollwood movies always seem to make it a point that the protagonist is very much trying to not get involved. I wonder what that says about the (current) culture in the US.
