I think governments should enforce a social network of a maximum 150 direct contacts and setup 3 independent agencies that play the role of gate keepers for content coming from outside this small network. The agencies analyze external content, if 2/3 of them approve a content, it is pass to everybody.

These agencies would each employ thousands of people and paid by the government. All employees will have a mandate of 3 years maximum, managers included.

If USA can attack Venezuela for oil, why other countries, like France, couldn't do the same to Qatar or Koweit for example? France has more needs for oil that USA.

I tried Cline, but I work faster using the command line style of Aider. Having the /run command to execute a script and having the console content added to the prompt, makes fixing bugs very fast.

"gemini 2.5 pro exp" is superior to Claude Sonnet 3.7 when I use it with Aider [1]. And it is free (with some high limit).
