Your views of Japan are a bit outdated: Japan’s [work hours](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_average_annual_labor_hours#OECD_list) are around the European average, improving tremendously over the last 30 years. The figure also includes paid and unpaid overtime, based on actual surveys of workers (not employers) by independent NGOs. Japan’s [suicide rate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_suicide_rate) and [fertility rate](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_dependencies_by_total_fertility_rate) are both around the Nordic average. Japan ranks [higher in gender equality](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_Inequality_Index#Rankings) than Germany, performing especially well in women’s health and education. In fact, Japan’s [quality of life](https://www.numbeo.com/quality-of-life/rankings_by_country.jsp) and [median wealth](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_wealth_per_adult) and are higher than that of Sweden this year.

Yep! And if you move to LCOL areas then the school situation is still dire. Public schools are fucked from underfunding, private schools are like a college tuition. How do you spend time with kids if you have to commute half the day. What are people supposed to do?

I think it would be nice ig marketing for the apps didn't imply that an algorithm could find you true love, or that if you break up with someone you met online, that isn't a failure of the app All dating app can really do is connect people with similar interests or dislikes. The act if dating is up to the individual,  and it's natural and healthy to date many different people before you find a life partner.   Stop selling the lie of algorithmic true love.

>Why get married if you don't intend to have kids? Without a child to protect with the benefits of marriage (guardianship, visitation, financial stuff), it's just a formality for a couple.  Can't speak for Japan,  but most countries have better tax incentives for married couples. Also, common law tends to have weaker financial protections for shared assets.

There are tax deductions if your spouse doesn't work enough to exceed 1.03 million yen per year. Your spouse can also be covered under your medical coverage, reducing total cost of coverage. Your married status is seen as desirable by financial institutions, and makes it easier to obtain credit. And of course, if your spouse is also working, you have the ability to pool resources. Marriage is very much a legal construct and not “just a formality for the couple.”

Lol, good luck. The issue is that Japanese people won't even use dating apps for what they're supposed to be for. I've been out of the loop for a while, but for example on Tinder, too many girls would have profiles saying "they're only looking for friendships". And on top of that, I recently had ads for the same tinder where they were basically advertising it as "not only for dating! You can also find friends who share the same hobbies!". Which, sure. It's not a bad thing per se, but a DATING app should be used to find people to date, or you're just cluttering it with unnecessary shit. Find friends somewhere else.

Imagine trusting a random redditor over the UN lmfao. Looks like the CCP army is out in full force today. Funny you focused only on one because you realized that you don’t really have an argument for the others. Even then, 1.3 vs 1.4 is not too different when replacement level is 2.1. Finland is the same as Japan at 1.3. Do you want to actually look at the stats? Go argue with the folks over at the WHO and OECD.

The Japanese government is ruled by eugenicists that believe that the lower classes of Japan must work hard enough and be worthy of joining the upper class. They think the only reason they struggle is because they're weak, dumb, failures, etc. They see the state of their society as proof that only the best of the best are capable of thriving in Japan and they plan on actually keeping it that way as long as possible. Source: interview with a high ranking member of the government on The Japan Reporter on YouTube.

Taking the profits out of it is cool, but doesn't really change the fundamentals. Dating is hard and statistically inefficient. The apps are really there to show you who's looking and introduce you. The rest is up you.

It's not the chip it's the amount of RAM. Everything older than the iPhone 15 Pro only has 6GB of RAM. Google and Samsung struggled to get Gemini nano to work on the S24 and Pixel 8 and both those phones have 8GB of RAM

The difference between the 15 Pro and the 15 in terms of hardware is very significant. Besides being 8GB of RAM instead of 6GB, its Neural Engine is 35 trillion operations per second versus 16. What the Snapdragon can do or what Samsung developers are capable of is entirely irrelevant to this point. Apple has significantly more capability with the 15 Pro as it does with the 15 and even more so the 14 before it. If rumors about Apple starting its initiative when Craig F tested Copilot on December 2022 are true, they most likely have decided to amp up the specs for the 16 Pro accordingly and the bump in capability should also be seen.

All because they cheaped out on RAM. Meanwhile phones in the same price category on the Android side are coming with 16GB of RAM. Optimization doesn't matter when the competition has over TWICE the amount of RAM as the iPhone 15

That’s true, which is why I’m surprised that Apple can’t do the same, and have their AI run on at least iPhones with the A16 Bionic.

They’ll probably announce at WWDC, but rumors are Apple’s going to have on-device and server models. On-device features are important for privacy. Rumors are that some tasks will only be on-device, and others will be a mix that prefers on-device and sends to a server if necessary.

Unfortunately, the article is misleading. The court interprets the current laws, and since there is no fundamental right to online anonymity, there was only one conclusion. This is not directly related to copyright. The issue that needs to be resolved is that investigation minor minor infractions of copyright laws should not lead to less privacy for EU citizens, but that is something for legislators to figure out, not for the court. As for online privacy, it cannot be a fundamental right because it would make many serious criminal activities impossible to stop. The main problem here is that most laws predate the widespread use of the internet. It takes time to catch up.
