Why the fuck do they give this guy so much visibility on foreign affairs?

Yes, I know it's because of money and power, but this guy shouldn't have any power over UK, German or, truth be told, any matter whatsoever outside the US. Or even inside the USimho.

    Finnish guy here. The whole nation has been thrown in the middle of racist debate in the past year. One of the ruling political parties is a far right populist party who have strifed to normalize racism while they're in power. There are actual nazi affiliated people there. It's a fucking shitshow where they lie to coax normal people into rage against immigrants and it seems to be working with those poor suckers. It hasn't been a good year, far from it, but at least common everyday racism has been outed and is condemned by the majority.

    The Finnish suffix "-kainen" is used to create nouns that refer to things or beings associated with a particular quality or characteristic. Even though we don't necessarily mentally associate it with a similar meaning as "-mainen", it still is. Hence the translation of "bearlike" is close enough.

    For me it's because if the AI does all the work the person "coding" won't learn anything. Thus when a problem does arise (i.e. the AI not being able to fix a simple mistake it made) no one involved has the means of fixing it.
