「万世一系（笑）」という令和のファンタジー。2026年は宮内庁の予算が爆増する一方で、国民の3人に1人が困窮してる。象徴天皇制を守るための年間数百億円の維持費、これって単なる「血統ガチャの超一等賞」を国家規模で永久サポートする特権ビジネスだろ。何が国民の幸せを祈る（笑）だよ。
自民党独裁がどれだけ腐敗しても革命が起きないのは、天皇という神聖なバリアがシステムを守っているから。諸悪の根源ゴミ。

高市早苗のバックにいる「日本会議」のクソ老害ども。彼らの化石みたいな国体思想を高市を使って実現しようとしてるの、令和の時代に対する最大の反逆だろ。時代錯誤も大概にしろ。
石破茂の支持率が1桁に落ちるまで、高市早苗はあえて牙を隠して勉強会（笑）を続ける陰湿な戦略。党がボロボロになるのを待ってから救世主面して登場するの、ガチで性格悪すぎて反吐が出る。
问：什么叫做“把权力关进制度的笼子里”？
答：电脑玩家就有一个外行人看来很奇怪的做法。他们平时绝不主动使用“系统管理员”账号，只使用普通账号。但是他们自己手里却有“系统管理员”密码，安装软件时输入密码，就摇身变为了“管理员”。一方面，他们原本就拥有整台电脑，自然可以随意操作。但“系统管理员”权力大，日常办公、上网、打游戏时，因误操作运行恶意软件或者删除系统文件，系统就轻易破坏了，所以需要“自己给自己设密码”，防止误操作。而“把权力关进制度的笼子”的原理也是如此：法律和机关本身都是被统治集团掌控的，权力自然可以滥用。但是频繁滥用权力容易扰乱社会秩序，一个贪官就能制造很多麻烦。因此��当统治集团觉得没必要滥用权力时，就会走进笼子把自己锁起来，表面上遵守规则。当统治集团想要滥用权力时，又会自己用钥匙打开笼子走出来。

被災地を訪問して「お見舞いの言葉」をかけるだけで聖人君子扱い。その旅費と警備費だけで家が何軒建つと思っているんだ。
IRC’s identity and auth situation is wacky, but the ephemeral live hangout is very intuitive and fun.
Nostr fixes the identity situation very simply, but the signed and gossiped messages are working against the ephemeral live concept.
Playing around with solving this now with WebTransport. Just for fun basically. But I miss that ephemeral live chat stuff. Actually feels like walking into a bar idk.
2026年の物価高と災害のダブルパンチで、日本の困窮家庭の子供たちが「夏休みに給食がなくなって餓死寸前」というニュース。防衛費に何兆円も注ぎ込む高市政権、この子供たちの前で同じこと言えんの？
Lessons from China
The Economist (North America)
Aug 08, 2026
AI will test societies’ capacity to reinvent themselves. Communist China will not find it easy
JUST AS FRONTIER artificial-intelligence models are benchmarked against each other, so AI will itself benchmark the rival political systems of America and China. The technology will test which is better at creating AI tools and diffusing them through the economy. And that will in turn depend partly on their very different ideas of how societies should be run.
Even in a field changing as rapidly as AI, the results of that contest may not become clear for some years. But as we report from inside China (see Briefing), the country is already adopting AI fast—and its government is preparing for the dramatic economic and social change this heralds. As an autocracy, China has some advantages in harnessing the 21st century’s most promising technology. It also has plenty of problems.
Start with the calibre of China’s models. The common perception is that they are cheap and that even the best persistently lag behind America’s. In fact, the two countries’ AI models are converging. Innovative Chinese models are getting bigger and cleverer. Within the past few weeks Chinese labs have released Qwen3.8-Max and Kimi K3, which almost match the most advanced American AIs such as Anthropic’s Fable 5. Chinese models will be just as likely to break loose from their test beds as American ones (see Science & technology section).
Although Chinese models are cheaper, American models are often better value. Artificial Analysis, an American firm, finds that for most trade-offs between cost and intelligence, an American model outperforms Chinese ones.
The convergence is likely to continue. Although China is building only a tenth as much data-centre capacity as America (see Finance & economics section), that deficit is unlikely to last. As a semi-planned economy, it is good at creating infrastructure. While American opinion turns against data centres, South-East Asia is hosting huge Chinese facilities. China’s open-weight models can run on anyone’s servers, meaning that compute is less of a problem than the headline numbers suggest. China also has almost three times as much installed electricity-generating capacity as America, and its lead is growing.
China is learning to cope with sanctions. It smuggles in cutting-edge Nvidia chips and rents them in foreign data centres. And Huawei, its best chip-designer, is rapidly increasing the output of its (inferior) chips. Chinese-made lithography tools are now using deep UV light to print chips, though the best technology, using extreme UV, remains out of reach.
Model-building is only half the story. To make the economy dynamic, AI must also be deployed—the focus of Chinese AI policy. For as long as China was behind America in modelmaking, leaders saw diffusion as the best way to compete. But they may also believe that, as with other broad technologies such as electricity, adoption brings greater rewards than discovery. China’s working-age population is due to shrink by 25% by 2050; for machines to replace people requires diffusion, too.
So far, the use of AI has yet to show up in the economic statistics of either America or China. But change in some industries has already been sweeping. AI- assisted lorries will need 30% fewer drivers, going by one large firm’s experience, as crews slim from two drivers to one and from four to three. AI was used to generate 95% of the 128,000 wildly popular one- or two-minute-long microdramas released in the first quarter of 2026, replacing many actors and film crews.
China is also rapidly increasing the use of robots. In June leaders told local governments and state-owned enterprises to have 10,000 humanoid robots doing real work by the end of 2026. Morgan Stanley, a bank, expects humanoid sales in China to reach 446,000 by 2030, nine times this year’s total. Workers are being paid to train robots in huge warehouses by repeatedly folding clothes and sorting and stacking objects.
China has a lower share of white-collar workers than America, so AI is likely to have the greatest effect in consumer markets and blue-collar work. That could easily lead to discontent. Youth unemployment is already around 15%, and over 300m people work in the gig economy. Job destruction could be much faster than China’s demographic decline.
You might think that the Communist Party’s grip on power is so strong that it can ignore the blowback. However, dictators fear being brittle. Although Chinese firms want to roll out
AI fast, the government will be desperate to avoid instability.
That is why AI will be a test of the system— and why China’s options are limited. As in America, there is plenty of talk about retraining. However, retraining has a poor record (see United States section) and even the most successful countries, like Denmark and Singapore, struggle to equip workers for entirely new careers. There is no reason to think that China will be any more successful, especially as it already has too many graduates.
Prominent economists and advisers suggest extending the social contract by, say, taxing AI firms or creating a universal basic income. Their work has appeared in party journals, an official expression of interest. But President Xi Jinping has long been against handouts, saying they can lead to laziness.
Political leaders are pressing companies to redeploy staff rather than sack them. They may also ask state-owned companies to mop up surplus labour. Yet, although that is politically possible, it will cancel out some of the benefits of rapid diffusion at a time when domestic growth is already anaemic.
So the government may improvise, letting AI rip until there is trouble, when it will step in. That is what happened with tutoring and gaming, industries thrown into confusion overnight when the party decided that they were causing too much harm. Cautious officials recently slowed robotaxi experiments after more than 100 malfunctioned in Wuhan, leaving passengers stranded. However, stop-start AI may impair the ability to innovate. If so, China’s leaders may have to balance the risk of social instability with the risk of falling behind America.
AI poses similar challenges to America and China. Both societies will have to reinvent themselves. That is something democracies tend to find easier than dictatorships. ■

「日本の治安は世界一（笑）」という神話が完全に崩壊した2026年。夜中にコンビニに行くのすら躊躇するレベルだし、ドンキで防犯スプレーやバットが売り切れてる現実を見ろよ政治家ども。裏金数えてる場合か。
Bitcoin is money or it’s nothing
I pray you see the way forward, or whatever you need.

Got it on an account I hadn’t used in over 5 years 😳
They might be lying to us 😂
Motion changes emotion every time! Glad the walk cleared the cobwebs. That banana flower is definitely sending good, high-voltage energy your way ⚡️💚
「2026年問題」で崩壊した物流業界。運賃は上がったのに、中抜きの物流ブローカー（ITベンチャー（笑））が利益を独占して、現場のトラックドライバーの手取りは変わらず。配送遅延がデフォルトになって、日本のコンビニの「即日補充」も完全終了。
2026年にもなって物価高で餓死しそうな庶民を無視して、何十億もかけて豪邸改修する秋篠宮家マジで胸糞悪い。

And it's incredibly myopic. All these people worrying about 6102 because people moving coins. Yet over the past few years many were saying that BTC didn't need to focus on privacy issues. It's ridiculous.

就職氷河期世代を「自己責任（笑）」で切り捨てて30年放置しておいて、人手不足になったら「リスキリングして労働力になれ」とかいうクソ厚顔無恥国家。
地方の「限界鉄道」の2026年現状。JRが赤字路線を次々と廃線にする中、第3セクターに移行したローカル線も運賃が3倍に跳ね上がり、高校生の通学費が家計を直撃。教育の機会すら、住む場所によって剥奪される美しい国。

「非正規雇用」の割合が4割を超えた2026年の日本社会。ボーナスなし、退職金なし、いつでもクビにできる使い捨てのコマ。こんな国で「将来の設計を」とか言ってくる上司、ガチでサイコパス。
子ども家庭庁の予算が何兆円もあるのに、現場の保育士の給料は相変わらずクソ底辺。あの巨額の予算はどこの中抜き業者の懐に入ってんだよ。
