In a groundbreaking move, leading AI company Anthropic has announced plans to invest a staggering $50 billion in building its own data centers in Texas and New York. This ambitious initiative, revealed on November 12, 2025, aims to bolster the company's self-reliant AI development capabilities and create thousands of American jobs.


Not weird but expected, if you understand the British population and in particular the media. They're xenophobic and down right racist in their commentary, everything is zero-sum, they see other people doing well and think they must have stolen it from them. Brexit was driven largely by this toxic mix of misinformation and people craving to believe the narrative.


I am British and lived there for 30 years by the way and all of my family is there, in case anyone wonders how I know.


As a Brit, who now lives in the EU, I would agree with this. Bear in mind that London and the rest of Britain are very different places.


Curious. I've lived here for 10 years and I don't see it like this.


what a load of nonsense, most international polls determine it to be one of the least xenophobic and most racially tolerant nations, variously coming in at anywhere from third to fifteenth.


Unless, of course, you're Gypsy, Traveller, Jewish, Irish, Caribbean in the UK (outside of London) .. then recent survey's agree the xenophobia is pretty damn high .. oh, and being Pakistani doesn't help.

Although if you're Idris Elba post fame you'll be fine .. just don't ask him what it was like growing up.

oh I don't deny that there absolutely is racism and xenophobia, I'm not deluded.

The ethnicities you listed experience racism and xenophobia across europe, the UK is not exceptional in this regard (the nationality perhaps a little more casual xenophobia than they do on the continent but then most brits are at least part Irish).

I'm not sure the guardian or a youtube video count as references, the WVS might be a better place to start but there is no shortage of empirical (albeit this is a socially scientific topic) sources.


My feeling is Britain is both paradoxically tolerant (I live in Germany, and the difference is stark), but also omnidirectionally hateful - for instance, British people are the only people in the world who, as a norm, hate children. It's a nation of sadists, not a nation of racists.


This is incredible, would love to see a breakdown of the fat store and energy these butterflies would have required to make a 5-8 day journey. Seem impossible feat of nature, how do they stay awake and navigate!? So many unanswered questions.


Let's not do this, please. This is a disgraceful way for any person or company to behave. Metroc, a Finnish startup is devaluing humans who already face the hard realities of life and their decisions and mistakes. I hope this business model and this startup fails miserably and that none of us here think it is ever okay to behave this way. The community of builders is better than this.


Prisoners already do labor for token pay. I bet many of them would be happier clicking to label than what they currently do.


This is sickening, the poor family who were out celebrating a birthday handled it really well. The racist and his company will face the backlash


About 38 minutes before news outlets first reported Jeffrey Epstein's death in prison, a 4chan user published a detailed post about it.
