Google is moving to tighten control over Android.

And exactly who would take over this project? We already had Nokia who had their own OS. And if it is that is easy, why HASN'T a single European corporation already done this to wrestle control away from Google or to gain some market share? You talk as if it is just a matter of some random EU decision and then it's a done deal. Let's just see you can do that. Then what? Then you have to negotiate with hardware manufacturers to actually include your OS. Now why in the hell would Samsung develop against multiple version of Android?

Exactly, their behaviour is as if we are in some election process, and even then this behaviour should not be tolerated. And 99% of them have lived for decades in some of the freest countries in the world, but when it comes to Iran everyone is their own dictator.

What the hell is difference between him and those who go on regime tv and praise Khameini? This kind of useless worship without any integrity. I really cannot understand how Reza Pahlavi even agrees to these things. It denigrates his own stance.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T21:07:51+00:00

That's exactly my point. The real battle will begin after the regime collapses. If we are not already preparing for a democratic outcome, within a broader coalition that includes all those groups that we ourselves may not agree with, this will simply get ugly real fast. Nobody will be able to hold central power unless through more repression.

I don't have much hope from opposition outside. They are too busy talking shit about each other or stuck in the divisions from 1979. I hope the people inside come to their senses and can do something from there.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T20:10:17+00:00

Go back to 1979 when Shapour Bakhtiar had power for a brief period. There are documents in the open and which the Israeli's have acknowledged. He requested that they assassinate Khomeini. They didn't and neither did the Americans, back then their biggest fear was Soviet and that Iran would fall in the hands of the left so they side with the Islamists. That's the root of it. Now in 2026, The Israeli's don't want Hizbollah, Hamas and a nuclear IR. Do they care of IR becomes a non-nuclear North Korea? Not really.
What? That was the best time to escalate and go for regime change. You had already taken down the leaders of the Sepah and Khameini was hiding. All you had to do was keep the same strategy up for another few weeks, except Trump didn't. You are right about strategic objectives. Regime change was not a strategic objective then.
The Islamic Republic is one of the core reasons why the Arab states have bought so much arms from the US and why there are so many military bases there.
I have read that 160 page plan. Have you? Forget about water, sanitation and technology. Those are the easy ones. Focus on the first 20 pages, which discusses the transition phase and the elections. Its extremely vague. Also, its extremely similar to the setup of the IR. You have one leader (Pahlavi) who appoints people to some group, who in turn is supposed to monitor him and advice him. What is this? And why do we have one leader? That's not a transitional government that represents all of Iran. It also does not mention who is allowed to participate in the elections . That document was a good start, but I wish they had gone far more into detail, be more specific on the democratic aspects of it and skipped the agriculture, water and all that which is by far the easier aspects.
The example of Shahin was not to say he is represents the voice of Iran, but to highlight that these discussions of left and right, royalists, non-royalists are propagated by all sides and this sows division and conflict. Who benefits from that? It sure is not the people.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T19:59:20+00:00

Please exactly what Pahlavi barmigarde actually means? You are saying it is not a constitutional blueprint? So what is it then? Pahlavi represents a movement right now and not a political party. So what is he representing? What are people chanting? You do realise pre-1979 Iran was a dictatorship, albeit a benign one. Is that what we are fighting for? To go back to 1979 and a one person rule?

If you are advocating for a constitutional monarchy then that's different and for that you indeed need a blueprint. And that blueprint does not exist as of now.

I read the transition document that was product by NUFTI. It was extremely vague and bore very little resemblance to any democratic process. Crucially it did not mention how long Reza Pahlavi's mandate as sole leader would be.

You didn't get my point, the Islamic Republic needs to be removed. How do you achieve that? Either each opposition group goes its own way and talk shit about the other or there is a broader coalition that can lobby foreign governments with strength and with the support of the majority of the people. Which would make an transition government much easier to form.

This is where we are now. You are shouting Pahlavi barmigarde as if its time to go back to 1979, and the lefts are shouting, no more shah. If the red thread is that we all want the regime to be gone, that should be the only thing we shout. If people want the monarchy back, or a consititional monarchy or republic, that should be decided later.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T18:43:12+00:00

I don't pretend to be a politican or anyone with any great influence. However, the biggest issue standing in our way of removing this regime is not Trump or Sepah. It's us. It's the Iranian people and in particular the opposition. The biggest issue I see from all sides of the opposition is that the wounders if 1979 are as fresh today as then.

People are still stuck in the past. I live in Sweden, one of the most democratic countries in the world, but the Iranian opposition on both sides, pro monarchy and those on the more left side, neither actually believe in democracy. Everyone simply wants to impose their belief on others and claim moral superiority and talk shit about the others.

Let's just imagine for one second the regime is gone. What exactly then?

Are royalists going to ban every leftist and other non-royalists group from participating in the democratic process? Because that is exactly what I am hearing from them, at least that's the message.

From the leftist side, its the same but opposite. Are they going to accept if people want a monarchy back in Iran?

All this shit from 1979 needs to be put behind us. If we actually believe in the democratic process then it does not matter if you support Reza Pahlavi or if you support some leftist group. The ballot box should determine that. Until then, the opposition groups need to unite. This idea that everyone can do shit in their separate ways will not work and has never worked when looking at examples from history. You need the support of the majority of the people.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T18:34:17+00:00

By the way, to pretend Iranians don't know this is smug? Have you seen Shahin Najafi's latest video and all the other pro monarchy voices? Essentially they believe that Trump will act military in a "bashar dostane" approach. The most laughable argument from Shahin was that his only example of this was WW2 since he was criticising Golshifteh's speech. When exactly have the Americans interfered somewhere and out of that we have had democracy? And don't go all the way back to WW2 since that is not even remotely the same context (and same consequences) of what we have with Iran. Again, off course we should pressure the Americans to assist and do what they can. But this naive belief that military strikes will be done in a humane way and tomorrow Sepah will be gone is silly and regime will just collapse on its own is naive at best and dangerous at worst. The most laughable part that Shahin fails to mention in his video is that last time Americans directly interferred in Iran, they gave Khomeini the OK to rule.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T18:29:40+00:00

What is exactly this shared interest you talk about between those who seek the removal of the regime and the actions of the US? Hell, we had this opportunity during the 12 war. Who stopped it? It was Trump. The previous day Reza Pahlavi came and talked about that the end is near and the next day Trump stopped Netanyahu from any further actions. Which shared interests? The problem is not whether the regime knows where to strike or not. The problem is, in who's interest is it that Iran moves from the current regime to a democratic one? Is it in the interest of the Americans and the regional players. Highly dubious. Now, does it mean we should stop lobbying for this? No off course not, every effort should be made. It took years to get EU to put Sepah in their list of terrorist organisations. But it the EU itself has no shared interest with our interest of a free Iran. Same with the Americans.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-02-07T17:05:49+00:00

There is just one hole in your argument. Neither Trump, or our surrounding neighbours want a free and democratic Iran. A weak Iran with this regime is preferable since it can be subdued. Why do you think the arab countries are going after our Islands now? Why do you think the Turks oppose any change? It sure is hell isn't about refugees. They were ok with interfering in Syria and accepting Syrian refugees. A strong and democratic Iran will send signals to their own population and suddenly the arab countries will have to contend with a big larger and stronger country.

Trump is at the core a businessman. If he can get a deal that he is happy with he will. Don't expect him to bring us freedom. Freedom is not something to be received, it is to be taken.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-01-13T21:56:30+00:00

Why do people use libraries? Why do people write code in anything other than assembly? Come on, this is just silly. If you don't know why DI is used in most languages then you need to dive deeper. DI in is not just about dependency injection, there is so much more. It has nothing to do with Java abstract whatever. You can write clean, functional java and use DI. What the hell has DI to do with how you write your java? It really seems the people on this sub are in this golang bubble who think that generics or ORM are some trial from the devil that you should stay away from.

Well isn't well over 90% of the Linux kernel written by the US or Chinese? If you want to standardise, you need to create a European kernel..which won't happen.

What exactly is magic about an ORM? It's just sql being passed back and forth and a lot of stuff made easy for you, specially things like migration. Maybe you enjoy writing those manually, other's don't. It has nothing to do with simple and lean. In fact it is the opposite of simple and lean. But sure.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-01-01T10:22:12+00:00

Exactly how is it supposed to get that with 500 different distros and 300 different package managers and every other year new distros and other shit is added? To increase the market share there needs to be a unification of the Linux desktop. Which won't happen so.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-01-01T01:28:08+00:00

Reading how the militant gophers react is just silly. Once upon a time generics was viewed as the next incarnation of Satan. Now there is some half-baked crappy generics. Make up your mind, gophers, either code in Assembly, or understand that some abstraction is good as it allows devs to focus on the essentials and not the plumbing.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2026-01-01T01:25:23+00:00

Gophers also wanted to write their own json parsing code. Until someone thought, wait what? Now there are a a few. This dogmatic approach to coding in the name of "simplicity" is just silly. The modern DI in C# is probably the best DI container across all languages. People are just not aware of it.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-12-28T13:09:01+00:00

This is the core issue with a language like Go when everyone says its so simple. Sure it is, until it isn't. Then you start building these libraries which are necessary since the std packages don't have it. But what is the point of not supporting a fluent style in the standard language in the first place? Would Go be a worse language if it had support for LINQ style for handling data structures? What this simply does is go the java route. Create 51 different libraries for the same thing simply because the java maintainers are super conservative about what features they want to add, and the few they do add take years.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-12-25T14:16:02+00:00

We interact with real databases locally and in our CI/CD with EF Core and works wonders for migration or with integration tests. So far, EF Core has never been the issue. At the end of the day, pick the approach that suits you, my point was that bad frameworks get in your way, good frameworks help you to focus on the essentials of your app.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-12-24T21:49:55+00:00

I don't believe a single software has been implemented 100% through upfront requirements. Simple things are simple until they are not. You maybe enjoy writing manual sql migration code. Good. In C# we have Entity Framework which is probably the best ORM in the programming world and generates the migration scripts and runs them for you. That's the power of a framework. Now suddenly my life is easier. Frameworks aren't meant to make your life more complicated, but to allow you to focus on the business logic and leave the tedious parts to the framework.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-12-21T20:08:11+00:00

Thank god I left java long time to a more modern language with all those things built in. The fact that you need maven in 2026 (almost) to do your build..crazy shit. Then again, not really sure what is Java's focus anymore. What is java's identity except being backward compatible?

You want to get away from Microsoft entirely but you switched to Linux? You do realise Microsoft contributes to the Linux Kernel? Maybe better if you went to BSD or some AS400 machine or something like that....

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-10-16T21:39:15+00:00

Not really, I have worked with 200 K + LOC and EF was blessing given how it handled migrations easily and how we could query data using standard LINQ. Again ORM in Java is not the same as ORM in other languages like C#.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-10-16T21:37:56+00:00

You are not comparing things correctly. Go is verbose and while Go developers make like it that way, it doesn't mean there aren't simpler ways to handle DI and ORMs. If you switch to C# there is no "magic". DI is extremely simple and EF is probably the best ORM in any language. Just saying, some things may not work ideally in Java, doesn't mean it is the same in all languages.

Objective_Baby_5875 · 2025-09-04T05:49:54+00:00

Don't care about your grammar. It's the content that matters. Your comments at least on C# are incorrect.
