- Comment on AI experts return from China stunned: The U.S. grid is so weak, the race may already be over 1 week ago:
To be fair though, pur grid is absolutely ass and held together by electrical tape and broken dreams. Because it turns out apending the 40 years gutting the public sector of everything useful and not doing proper maintainence left the US unable to adapt.

- Comment on Canada demands 5% of revenue from Netflix, Spotify, and other streamers 1 year ago:
It’s a balance because most countries don’t want American culture burying their own. Those laws are what has made Canadian musicians so successful over the years. Music is really the only cultural thing that Canada is able to stand up for itself. Forcing broadcasters to dedicate X amount of time to domestic artists is important to prevent American media conglomerates from boxing out small and independent artists.
