  • AI came at sort of a perfect time for me. I grew very tired of coding about, I don’t know, 5 or 10 years ago. No LLM in sight back then.

    Now that I can do “coding” without the absolute bore of the process, I’m much happier. I find that I can accomplish projects that I have been dreaming about for decades.

    Models keep getting better and cheaper. I can now drive the pretty capable Deepseek v4.1 flash pretty much 24h a day on my projects while spending something like 20 euros per month.

    Who funded Hamas?

    Great question! Before October 7th terror strikes, Hamas had been funded by

    • Iran (principal military sponsor)
    • Qatar
    • Multiple private donors all over the world
    • Taxes from Gaza (since they were the primary government there)
    • Overseas investments

    You are alluding to the borderline antisemitic conspiracy theory that Israel was funding Hamas, which is almost true, since they allowed Qatari money to flow in their hands. Israel has not funded Hamas directly, however. Still a bad decision by Benjamin Netanjahu though, in retrospect.

    Why was Hamas created?

    Hamas grew out of the Muslim Brotherhood, as an uprising to the Israeli occupation of Gaza. Its primary reason of being was to compete against the more secular Fatah/PLO. In contrast, Hamas is explicitly Islamist. Israel again allowed this to happen, which in retrospect was perhaps a mistake. This is also the basis of another rather crazy conspiracy theory, namely that of Israel creating Hamas for some convoluted plot that would allow them eventually to conquer all of Gaza, or something.

    Bet you won’t answer my questions.

    Hope you didn’t bet more than you can afford.

    Fuck palestine. A miserably failed British colony, created after colonies weren’t cool anymore so they had to call it “Mandate”. The people in palestine need help though, because they are obviously unable to help themselves.
