And Nato is of course "expanding", "cornering" and "surrounding" Russia too. Just like a map makes obvious...?
You may understand why you are wrong if you do a quick inventory of countries that are independent, and politically and economically stable, because of United States. For example, ask yourself what distinguishes Venezuela from Columbia; North Korea from South Korea; Syria from Jordan; Somalia from Kenya. Intervention doesn't work all the time, it sometimes go spectacularly badly. Sometimes just the possibility/threat of intervention is enough to stabilize a fragile nation.
Worth noting that there are many restrictions with regards to raw SIGINT sharing by NSA. And most definitely would not be a concern for US citizens.

> Is there any proof that it [automating programming, mathematics, scientific method] is or isn't possible?

Decidability results can be useful, but note that it's certainly possible to do automated reasoning for undecidable theories. So decidability results are more useful for predicting the difficulty and determining appropriate approaches than for actually determining anything about the possibility of creating a useful system.

E.g. the halting problem is famously undecidable, but there's lot of impressive work on termination checking. Misinterpreting undecidable problems as "impossible problems" is a classic undergrad mistake.

> Is there a way to prove or disprove it mathematically?

No, not really, unless you can be very specific about the exact subproblem you're interested in. And even then, probably not.

5 Success Practices of Ultra-Effective Business Teams
For everyone here who seems to be working with websockets, how do you deal with the potential that a browser goes offline and misses messages? How do you reconcile changed offline state with more recent events on the server? An OT library?

Do you have a way to cluster websocket servers so that events are propagated to all clients?

That's moving the goalposts. Nothing about what you said makes it the result of Trump's administration.

Also, might I just point out the irony of accusing people of being "anti-intellectual" in reaction to the financial crisis that is precisely the one the intellectuals promised us could never possibly happen under their guidance, and were mocking people for even considering it possible right up to the day it happened. How rational is it to belief false things simply because they carry the label "intellectual"?
Stable economies provide a buffer for the less intelligent parts of society. When you're fed, have money, and feel secure xenophobic and baseless opinions tend to not have any weight. Or at the very least, there's no reason to act on them.

People don't go dumb around a financial crisis, they tend to just start acting after one. People get away with having these opinions for so long because our societies have an abundance of resources. You're rarely "punished" in any significant way for your lack of skills, intellectually or otherwise.
The rule for backups is that if you haven't successfully performed a complete restoration from backup, then you have no backup.

Revolution? It is called coup d'etat, whose only outcome has been the enrichment of oligarchs and the utter destruction of the ukrainian national identity.

Now Ukraine is a mix of foreign interests, polish born oligarchs, nazi battalions ( the so-called volunteers ). What is there in for the people? Famine, high prices for gas and electricity, the Ministry of Truth ( yes there is such a thing in the new shiny "democratic" Ukraine ). Ok, keep in mind that you can go to jail there for speaking in russian tongue.
The safety comes from the idea that they would, which is what keeps the bad thing from happening.

If there is any doubt that the US would go to war, that ironically increases the risk that they would.

So basically - one says one would definitely go to war. Simply because then you maximize the chance of avoiding it. Donald Trumps administration didn't get the memo I think, when they started being vague on who might be helped by Article 5.

However SignalR does not give you access to a raw websocket, in the same sense that socket.io does not give you one. Both are higher level abstractions that can use websockets as a transport, but are not restricted to them. If you want to run a custom protocol on plain websockets, e.g. because it's already well-defined what the other peer speaks/understands, then both are not applicable. If you don't care whether your realtime application is portable to another framework then yes, SignalR and socket.io are very viable solutions.

Nothing has substantively changed yet. The United States has reaffirmed its support for NATO, for its Asian alliances, and it has rhetorically asserted itself with Iran and North Korea.

I don't think Russia or China fit the traditional label for hegemon. They are regional or great powers that have a lot of influence over certain countries near them, but even that is limited.

The only hegemon is the US like the British Empire before it.

par2 is another alternative for redundant copies: https://github.com/Parchive/par2cmdline

It's kind of like RAID for data, and removes the uncertainty that maybe ddrescue wouldn't get an I/O error and just receive and save bad data (it happens). It'd also be capable of repairing damage, up to the redundancy level par2 archives are created at (default is 5%, can go all the way to 100% -- which would mean you don't need any of the original data assuming all par2 files are not corrupt either (which it can also handle...)).

The pros and cons of each system? You think the US would only use 3 types if there was any strategic value to more? We have lobbyists and congressmen salivating at the whisper of evidence that more war machines need to be built.

They exist because they are old outdated technology that the host countries feel no pressure to replace since they have to buy their replacements not build them and thr expectation of war has been marginal for a long time.
> what strategic goal the new White House administration intends to achieve by disintegrating the EU

Together the EU is a formidable negotiation partner (GDP equal to the US), while alone each EU state is in a much weaker position, thus giving the US an advantage.

Also Trump has said that he sees the EU and the Euro as a tool created by Germany to give them a competitive advantage. And Trump seems to see Germany is one of the main competitors of the US (and has a massive trade surplus with the US).
Not sure about US law, but in Australia, Copyright notices are not required at all, they're granted automatically under the law and only serve as a reminder -- so it's irrelevant.
It's ironic considering it's coming from Bloomberg, which has done nothing but undermined America and been a propaganda mouthpiece for the globalist elite that are trying to establish a neo-feudal world order.

The commoners really don't get that that is the end game of fracturing and breaking apart the civilized world of the middle class with ever more assaults on wages and property and democracy by flooding their societies with foreigners and the uncivilized third world? I know that makes people uncomfortable because it goes against their propaganda indoctrination of peace and love and caring, but reality is that's what's happening, that's what the useful idiots are ushering in, neuo-feudalism where no one group of commoners has a common identity or culture or cause. It is easier to dominate a society that is fractured and identitiless, hence why white and European identities are being fractured and polluted with those of all over the place. There's no need to pollute, aka, diversify, African or Middle eastern societies and cultures, because they are already under various states and conditions of subservience. It's those pesky white people and those 18th century revolutions that need to be brought back under control.

It's quite sad that people don't quite get that and are facilitating their own detriment, let alone even want to contemplate it without resorting to rationalization and delusion.

The naive delusion about facebook and Zuckerberg is only a single little blip in the future that is to come. There will be many more instances of the "mega-wealthy" simply disposing of nuisances and buying lang and taking control and monitoring and regulating information that sets the parameters of reality for the vast majority of people.

We are heading into a world where the fantastic delusion portrayed and pushed through the global neo-feudal lords' propaganda channels will be the reality most think they are living in. Yes. it has a tinge of Matrix to it.
There is not doubt that in Germany the moderate parties will win again (SPD, CDU/CSU, Green Party, Liberals currently get 75% of the votes; The parties that constitute the current government would get 60%; The party that is currently openly opposed to the EU is at 11%.) [0]. Fortunately, I don't see this changing, even in the far future. The far left and far right can perhaps get up to 20-40% in total in the long run, but they are opposed to each other.

> Ms. le Pen may not win this time, but she will one day

There is very little to support this. FN has been around 20% for decades, racking in about the same 5-6M voters at most elections. Structurally, far right in France (as in other countries) splits up as soon as it starts compromising to reach a wider audience. Also structurally, contrary to UK/US, all elections in France have 2 rounds - and Le Pen will never get to win the 2nd one.

Yes, she and Mélenchon are symptoms of anger/apathy. Netherlands and Germany have similar issues. It doesn't mean the extremes are nowhere near winning.

> The EU is falling apart because of issues within the EU

Predictions on how the EU will die started in 1957. The last 10 years have put an impossible amount of stress on it - and here it is, alive, and with increasing voter support.
The classic example, since modern nutrition research started in the '50s, is Inuit/Eskimo. They eat a lot of whale blubber, yet have very low rates of heart disease.

If gp thinks a win by Le Pen or her counterpart in Germany is a given, he does not understand the election system in each respective country.

Living in the EU, I actually experience quite the opposite to what jerf is predicting: a reemergence of the EU as a passionate project after Brexit. People have taken the EU for granted for way too long, now it starts to emerge as an issue that is worth fighting for (check e.g., pulseforeurope.eu). Granted, there's also a nationalistic reemergence acting against the EU, but at least it's proponents are starting to fight back.
Are you rabid?
If the EU, designed to be the counterbalance to the United States, is so delicate that it lives or dies based on the decisions of one man that doesn't even live there, it is falling apart.

There's no way around this; if it's gotten to that point of illness it has already proved itself extraordinarily weak. Blaming Trump for pushing it over the edge is just a politically-convenient privileging of the numerous other forces that must be pushing it over, and it's hard for me to believe that Trump is even in the top 10 reasons, especially given the lateness of his entry on the scene. Do we seriously believe that things would be so much better if Trump had not won? It's not like Obama particularly managed to hold it together or anything.
In about 5 years they start losing charge, and there is no return from there. Magnetic storage last longer usually, tapes ~20 years, but they require certain conditions and it does matter if you store them vertically or horizontally. Hard drive can last very long, but they have moving parts, which is a completely different world of potential problems if they are power off for a long time.

I dug into archiving my stuff a few months ago, ended up using single layer panasonic blu-ray. They used to be advertised as 50 years archival grade, but panasonic split it into on that's without the archival label and one with - the latter is nearly impossible to get in Europe and is very expensive.

I won't touch Ukrainian and Georgian part, but Chechnya is out of context here, honestly.
France, Netherlands, Germany, and the U.K. are all countries with large and growing immigrant populations. Seeing their countries 'taken over' by foreigners, people vote for parties promising to put a stop to it. Unfortunately, there are no pro-EU parties making those promises. Quite the opposite - they prefer to chastise their people for not wanting their countries to irreversibly change. So that's how you end up with this mess - I don't think prodding by the Americans had much to do with it.
While I appreciate Rust and Go, this can already be achieved by using the well established Fortran.

EDIT: typo.
I think you're right, had the AI (like the second game) had the incentive to maximize the well being of the cooperating actors, rather than itself, the outcome would be different.

But if advanced AI is being developed in a capitalist economy by independent actors, it seems most likely the incentives will be anything other than optimizing the output for the individual outcome.

If that AI finds a way to "hurt" the other actor, there could be some major boat load of unintended consequences.
The US had problems "keeping those wars 'won'" because the US had to attempt to minimize civilian deaths. If there ever is an event where this isnt the case, you can bet it would be wrapped up in a few weeks.

Modeling Status Updates on PostgreSQL Using JSON
Ooh, I know this one! I think. Doesn't Apple Mail have this built in? I go to Keychain Access, choose the option to generate a key. Two clicks. Head to Mail, encryption options are there. Now, to import his key. Do some googling on that.

Wait, what? Apple Mail supports S/MIME, not GPG. Competing standards strike again.

If the other person has S/MIME, Apple Mail does have a very easy experience. I can't speak for the merits of either security-wise.

Also, I think this is the sort of thing Keybase is good for. There's a level of indirection pasting into Keybase, but it's pretty easy to set up and (for non-Snowden levels of paranoia) makes it very easy to start sending encrypted mail to somebody else. The new Keybase chat is also an option.
I should have used a different term, for clarity. By overflow I meant that the estimated amount of water in the reservoir exceeded its total storage capacity and they had to use spillways to drain the excess. We have a geo engineer on our team and he's saying that while primary spillways are made of concrete, the secondary (emergency) spillways are made of soil and materials and can deteriorate quickly.

Personally, the GPG CLI acts exactly as I expect it to, being a CLI and all, and I don't expect non-advanced users to use it.

Well, in two's complement arithmetic (as is used on most architectures), the intermediate overflow can be ignored, and it will work just fine.
Fortran already covers those points, and it has a very nice libraries with several decades of work.

I don't see how Go would be a better option than it.
