It's English, but British, Jim.
The Myrdals are probably entirely discredited nowadays, both for being the quintessential social engineers and their son Jan happily destroying their legacy. As you'll no doubt have learned, fertility has fallen everywhere in the developed world, both in countries with shit welfare for parents (Italy) and quite good (the Nordics). Realistically, the only way to reverse this is to enable draconian abortion laws coupled with a systematic repression of sex ed and contraception. Of course this is congruent with today's fascists' goals...
I have 3 kids, 1 bio and 2 bonus, and man it's a lot of work. (youngest is technically an adult but de facto...)
I also feel there's insane pressure nowadays not just to have a kid but to have the perfect kid - great childhood, great education - and if you miss just one PTA meeting you're branded for life
Frankly surprised to see something this funny on LinkedIn.
Micro-sneer, inspired by this article on Swedish public service broadcasting

The background is that the center-RIGHT gov of Sweden is gonna put up an investigation ("utredning") into why people aren't getting (the RIGHT kind of) kids. Nothing new there, simply the same culture war fretting already percolating in the anglosphere.
Finland already has an investigation ongoing, and the spokesperson there raises the point that one societal change that's happened in the last 25 years is... social media.
Wouldn't it be delicious if it could be proved that Facebook and Twitter and Tiktok are the reasons people don't get into relationships and have kids? Eat that, Elon!
This titbit by Molly White about how whales have captured Polymarket's "dispute resolution" mechanism had me chuckling
Wrong thread, buddy?
I think they're different people but may be in communication out of band.
edit a search for "HandofLixue" on Google only gives one hit, an old profile on LessWrong now renamed to "The Dao of Bayes":
Maybe instead of worrying about obscure wiki pages, Habryka should reflect why a linkpost titled Racial Dating Preferences and Sexual Racism is on the front page of his precious community now, with 48 karma and 22 comments.
LWronger posts article entitled
"Authors Have a Responsibility to Communicate Clearly"
OK, title case, obviously serious.
Nope he's going for satire.
And ladies, he's available!
