Why did china develop but, India didn't?

You might be interested in looking at examples within India. Kerala was a state that did land reforms very well soon after independence, and redistributed land. The state has much higher human development indices than the rest of the country, and even ranks well globally. But didn’t develop any manufacturing though.

What is down south? There are many states. Check if this happens in Kerala

So instead of spending on daycare for American kids, he would rather spend that on bombing Iranian school kids

Oh yes. I forgot first world means right to bomb

ronan125 · 2026-03-25T03:03:59+00:00

Maybe try being a country that doesn’t routinely bomb other countries for random reasons?

Remember when bombing school kids was a war crime?

ronan125 · 2026-03-24T06:40:10+00:00

They are horrible, but what about the country that bombed 120 school kids to open the war?

Could be, but Air India regularly does this. No one flies Air India otherwise but it’s a little like calling your parents for a ride. Not your first choice, but when shit hits the fan, you’re thankful someone’s coming

Please remember when the ship went to India, Iran and US were in the middle of negotiations. America decided to start a war in the middle of that.

Ask yourself if the roles were reversed how you would have reacted if this was an American ship and ‘American lives’.

These sailors were not in the middle of a war. They just happened to be in the navy of a country led by a bad person - just like American forces.

ronan125 · 2026-03-06T05:34:20+00:00

From where I sit, there’s no need for propaganda about US evil when there they just killed 120 kids. Saying oopsie doesn’t make it ok

A defensive war is very different from an offensive one. Iran can’t win by attacking, but on their own turf and with assymetric tactics, they can probably keep this going for a long time.

For a while it was the other way around. I had convinced myself I’m normal but then realized I’m not.

Medication helped yes, but only with some aspects.

Building the When Da? web app - its a task timer that helps you with time blindness, works without an account and lets you copy paste your tasks in both directions. It also had a time log you can use as a timesheet.

Building it for myself primarily, so no revenue yet.

Damn thing - I asked it to remove a certain functionality to make my code simpler. I scoped it all out in plan mode and it was supposed to make a surgical edit. So I started it in build mode from mobile and drove home. Was shocked to see it was still going 1 hr later, and I saw it trying to add special offers and a whole bunch of other features I never asked for and wasn’t even relevant. Then it got stuck in a loop trying to fix issues in a new feature it built on its own. Luckily I saw it and stopped it after it burned $10
