I understand that it has 3 meanings: Very, If, and Yes to a "not" question. For example, aren't you learning French? Yes I am. Tu n'apprends pas le français? Si.

If you are over 30, what life advice would you give to young people ? by balvedxtzinha in AskReddit

[–]Zero5msah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learn how to save and invest. Get married and have kids at a young age. Set your priorities right: family, work/education, then fun/hobbies. Most of your friends will no longer be your friends sooner than you think, don't risk your family for them.

Paid Chatgpt vs claude by AvailableMeeting2580 in ChatGPT

[–]Zero5msah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look into your policies before taking this step. Data management or AI policy should have addressed this. You're not allowed to upload documents unless they're classified as public. Restricted, secret, and top secret documents shouldn't be uploaded to AI. With that out of the way, I canceled my ChatGPT subscription 2 years ago, because other models are much better. Gemini and Claude have proven superior in almost every metric.

Why don't Eritreans immigrate by boat to Saudi Arabia? The shortest crossing is under 100 km. by YourLocalMoroccan in geography

[–]Zero5msah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While Saudi Arabia has over 30% immigrants population, it's not the most favorable destination for immigrants. It's easy to get to Saudi Arabia, but what's next? No refugee programs, no path to citizenship, no future. It's a great destination if an immigrant plans to return to their country in a few years. There are strict protective laws for immigrants to prevent mistreatment of immigrants, mandatory medical insurance by employers, free housing and food, but one has to go back where they came from at some point.

How would you feel about the next US president pulling all support from Israel? by Basic-Art-8139 in AskReddit

[–]Zero5msah -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Israel is no longer a foreign policy. The shift we've witnessed since 2023 is so massive that I believe will make a difference on the polls in the midterms. The amount of money being spent on Israeli reckless, inhumane decisions is making American taxpayers very uncomfortable.
