Don't care. An Indian in the city is the same species as an Indian not in a city.

Jeets, in all their glory.

@Lorgar

People shit all over NK, but long-term it's obvious they will win over SK.

Yes they have shitty living conditions, but when the world realigns they will still be Korean. No feminism, no immigration, no Johnny Somali, no Globohomo, no sneaky kikes. If they don't go crazy with "muh freedom" and turn into degenerate Western sheep like South Korea, they'll win big.

And to top it all off they have more than double the birth-rate of South Korea.

Another programming thought relevant to today: I wonder how many malicious pull requests are being merged into FOSS projects right now under the cover of Thanksgiving.

@Justicar

I hope so. Can you imagine the relief when the world finally ditches JS? I hope I live long enough to see that.

@Justicar

I don't set much store by IQ tests, despite scoring highly myself.

The real proof of any civilization's intelligence will always be found in the collective fruits of their labor - their cities, technology, art, philosophy, religion - not in an IQ score.

They are entering into a period of flourishing, and we will only be able to truly answer this in another 50 years or so.

I think people 50 years from now will look at your assertion that the Chinese are not high IQ and laugh.

@Justicar

Again, I refer to the fact of being able to run a city of 1 million people over 2000 years ago.

I can think of no greater practical proof. It requires architecture, engineering, construction, sewage control, water management, food import, codified law, policing & defense, and a shared virtue ethic that unites the populace.

You can't fake that. Rome also required high IQ, it's not a fluke.

Current day? We simply don't have accurate knowledge about their current capability (cont..)

@RoninGrey

Every word out of his mouth is a lie.

@Justicar

Your perception of China is likely distorted by their "century of humiliation", from 1839-1945, followed immediately by the absolute disaster of Communism.

But during the same era as Rome under the Republic (~ 200 BC onwards), both civilizations were the 1st to successfully run cities of 1 million inhabitants. Rome 1st, Han Dynasty 2nd.

That's incredibly difficult and is impossible to achieve by low IQ idiots. Britain achieved that in the early 1800's.

@Justicar

Hence Typescript. It's the only decent attempt at taming the insanity.

@DoubleD @ToyotaTime @Zeb

Thank you, that was well said.

@Justicar

That's also always been my opinion, and logically there's no escaping this conclusion.

The innocents however are a different matter.

She's a dead ringer for Sansa Stark from Game of Thrones

@VeganMGTOW @ToyotaTime @Zeb

You sound like a whole retard.
Learn how to spell and construct coherent sentences.

@Mommy

It's pretty good, takes a darker turn than previous seasons.

Dandadan's been funny-ish. Best new anime this fall season has been "Maou 2099"

@Mommy

Ah, so you also watch "Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?"

Loving Season 5 so far, poor Hestia.

@ToyotaTime

Always best to keep those plans on the shelf in reach, you never know.

@ToyotaTime @Zeb

Exactly so.

This issue split families down the middle more than anything, more than Trump.

In theory I'm all for the weak, easily-led, and prideful people to take themselves out, but some of those people are family, and for some, it has been children who had no choice.

It's been a bitter pill for many and I'm still plenty mad tbh.
