just terrific
I would much rather send my children off to a school run by the CCP than one run by the bastard elite that has been sucking the UK dry for centuries. They are run with a Machiavellian philosophy that generates ruthless, lonely psychopaths.
I also absolutely hate everything Thatcher did, but I think most British private schools were private long before she selling off Britain’s assets.
Britain has been an oligarchy/kleptocracy for centuries. And like all such systems it’s vulnerable to takeover from very big fish.
So Palantir sells a data management tool and deployment support. That shouldn’t really surprise anyone who knows the first thing about data science.
The interesting thing about Palantir isn’t what they sell but how they sell it and who buys it. They clearly market their unremarkable software as an autocrat’s wet dream.
And police and military departments across Europe and the US buy their shit, which says more about those police and military departments than about the software.
One can hope. The UK is a few revolutions behind.
