Israel was created by the British who made a deal with zionists without including any input from the Palestinians already living there. The British divided up the land, but that wasn't enough for the zionists who carried out terrorist attacks to drive out the people already living there. When Israel was established, the nearby countries responded appropriately to a tool of western imperialism being propped up right in their general region. We've all seen how Israel has poisoned the land both figuratively and literally, so those countries were right to respond the way they did.

The US being built on stolen land isn't right either and we should take stronger steps towards reparations. That doesn't excuse the genocide that Israel is carrying out right now. It's better to stop it earlier than later. Israel is hoping to destroy Palestine and pretend like nothing could have been done while they were doing it, then after it's done they'll shrug their shoulders and say it's all in the past. Do not give them excuses.

Israel was founded by terrorists and is the biggest terrorist state in the region. They name streets and other infrastructure in honor of their celebrated terrorists. Palestinians aren't just getting the short end of the stick by being caught in-between others, they're the direct target of Israel's program of lebensraum.

Says the one with the profile that says "Swiss Pan-European Nationalist". By the way, whataboutism is when you bring up an unrelated topic to distract from the current topic. It's not whataboutism to point out the accusing side doing the exact same thing, that is simply called pointing out hypocrisy.

It's all in the stance.

The tech-savvy reputation comes from the "digital native" narrative i.e. because they grew up with computers they must know computers, which is a silly fallacy because how one interacts with technology makes all the difference. It's the same reason why everyone who grew up with electricity isn't necessarily an electrician.

Spy agencies calling adversary countries bad is a given. They didn't even bother to list examples, it's just a "Russia bad and also China bad btw" article, so they're not even reporting on active FSB/GRU operations, just that they exist, which again, is a given and is also a given for western agencies. How does this qualify as news?

Hype over fake news like this is one major reason how tesla's stock price has gotten as high as it has.

That explains your optimism. Code generation is at a stage where it slaps together Stack Overflow answers and code ripped off from GitHub for you. While that is quite effective to get at least a crappy programmer to cobble together something that barely works, it is a far cry from having just anyone put out an idea in plain language and getting back code that just does it. A programmer is still needed in the loop.

I'm sure I don't have to explain to you that AI development over the decades has often reached plateaus where the approach needed to be significantly changed in order for progress to be made, but it could certainly be the case where LLMs (at least as they are developed now) aren't enough to accomplish what you describe.

I might not agree with the moderation practices or even their opinions, but that doesn't make them crazy.
