This argument is so absurd, that refuting it is like shooting fish in a barrel. Say I were to go and occupy Prof. Yehuda Lindell's (he likes this post) house. Then: Israel's area: 8,019 square miles Area that I have: 0.00007174 square miles therefore, I claim that Prof. Lindell (and his Israeli friends) must give his house to me because it's not about land and there's no occupation. This absurdity is the argument that is being made here. PS: Note also that Israel's area (8,550 sq. miles) is overstated. Wikipedia lists it at 8,019 sq. miles (the figure I used above), and the CIA World Factbook lists it at 8469.92 sq. miles.

100%! I am sick of all the frivolous degrees and specializations those pesky doctors have. I suggest we start by abolishing medical schools. Let a real practioner with no formal education shine for finding that magical concoction he claims cures everything from a headache to schizophrenia!

It's a good assistant to help one get familiar with a project. It may also flag well known problems/patterns. But for anything more sophisticated, AI will at least struggle if not outright fail. Auditing a codebase that's hundreds of thousands of lines of code requires a lot of context and reasoning. AI can keep context, albeit at an increased cost but reasoning is beyond current AI's capabilities.

Agreed! Fair criticism isn't the issue though, it is disguising the teachings one feels are inconvenient as oppression by men.

The pattern is more general than just Malaysia. Ishfaq Ahmad (a Pakistani literary figure) used to say that; because they can't openly hate Islam (on issueslike Hijab, Talaq, Qurbani, etc), they disguise it as hatred of Muslims.

I never understood Telegram's reputation as being private, recall that their chats were not encrypted by default.
