JP/TW had "security" dialogue that basically amounted to JP begging Taiwan for semi fabs. JP isn't going to do shit because like US they're even less capable of defending TW. JP actions has been all rhetoric. It means nothing until they commit to credible but politically expensive actions. Some notional missile force increase on Ryukyu is theatre when what's needed is massive mobilization of main islands (and put every JP civilian in harms way) outside of Okinawa as prescribed in AGILE. It's not going to happen, they can't even commit to land based Aegis Ashore ABM to save themselves from NK nukes.

>One does not.

PRC has blue water Navy that operates up to ME and has been for years. It's also signifantly larger and more capable than Japans. I suspect you need to update understanding from old Zeihan powerpoints.

With respect to US, PRC has 30 CEP ICBMs which means USNavy vessels become scrap the second they pull into port. Even nuclear carriers can't stay at sea forever, nevermind their sustainment / oilers / resupply ships will be long gone. US carrier groups will likely be one-time deployment assets. This is roughly reality now, and and even more dire in the coming years. US can sink every PLAN ship on the waters and PRC can sink every USN ship in port. Or destroy entire east Asian fab supply chain, setting back US industry/tech decades. Or bait US security commitments in Korea / Japan which compels US to send assets within 1st island chain where they are weakest, negating point of blockade outside of 1st island chain. The wank over blockading PRC via Malacca / SLOC overlooks the fact that at minimum PRC can force US to sign a hegemony suicide pact. PRC can make US lose everything even in defeat. And is willing to over TW.

it's true it oversimplifies - hence why I added my part about it being deterrence in the edit. Israel of course had deterrent reasons to have nuclear weapons, the same for Britain and France.

Obviously countries that are under U.S protection are not as a general rule fearing U.S invasion (unless big changes occur suddenly in a Presidential election) but they must also fear the loss of U.S protection through minor changes in a U.S election. If the U.S is currently providing their deterrence, it makes sense to invest in some of their own in case the protection is ever removed.

All that being said, Israel, Britain and France got their nuclear weapons in the past. I think anyone who is trying to get Nuclear weapons in the present time have a pretty good chance in wanting to deter the U.S.
Well at least the email seems useful.

The dizzying list of competing priorities is a great way of showing how much a manager must juggle.

I'm not a manager but an IC leading projects at a FAANG company. The engineers are very competent and my responsibilities are a fraction of a manager's and yet I really struggle with many of the things in your list.

For example, the capable but somehow-unable-make-solid-progress engineer who's been in this mode for 2 years and nothing I (or others) have tried has got them out of this.

My current manager is great and also very transparent about everything they do; this has given me new-found respect for a difficult and thankless role.

During ABC (nuclear, biological, chemical) survival training in the army we were taught to dust off the snowflakes off each other as often as possible to maximize survival until the radiation zone could be left. I got the impression it was survivable for some amount of time.
> If you are asking for that kind of basic information at this stage, someone should be in jail.

And again I ask why. Why should someone go to jail for asking for information? How does that help society?

Why isn’t it the place of the government just to help businesses adhere to the laws rather than taking an adversarial role? If a business makes an honest mistake, why not work with the business to correct the mistake and help anyone injured rather than go punitive?

Throw people in jail for malice, but not for mistakes or incompetence. It serves no one. The person does not come out of jail more competent nor unable to make mistakes.
The halting problem has that same style of thinking, but the universe doesn't necessarily play by such rules. For one, it's still an open question whether the universe could properly contain a model of itself (hence, needing a model of the universe plus the model isn't a guaranteed absurdity).
> They can just hire anyone off the street.

No, they can't, not quickly. First they have to find a large number of new hires (which takes time), then those new hires have to be taught how to use the equipment and do the job in general (which takes time), then it takes even more time until they're fully productive.

> They just route it through some other path.

You have this weird idea that only a single warehouse would be put on strike. Why? Do you think there would be one union per warehouse?

> Whereas for the warehouse workers, the longer they strike the longer they're not getting paid.

The way this typically works is that workers pay union dues, some of which is used to replace their pay during a strike. Those funds aren't endless, but usually sufficient to force the company to make concessions.

Again, unions actually work outside the US. Why are you ignoring the evidence that they do?

Very interesting and also impressive. Intuitively, one might at first think that "seeing inside a closed room" implies "...without being seen yourself", however that is obviously not the case, since occupants of a room will hardly miss a giant beam of laser.

Is anyone aware of any small/medium size companies in a regulated industry that are actually using FSF GNAT in production?

I come across a lot medical device startups/contracts who could be a really great fit for an embedded application in Ada but who will not have the budget for Adacore's GNAT. The production examples on Adacore's website are typically very large companies in regulated industries.
I can think of some analogous ways to recover some semblance of the analogy, but it's not really a great one.

A virtual "particle" is really more of a "disturbance" in a field: think splashing in a pool vs a wave. And in the context of the contents of a proton, imagine trying to differentiate a well-behaved 1hz wave from the other noise in the liquid, when the liquid is in a blender.

edit to add:

To recover the local/global variable analogy, imagine the compiler was continuously recompling the code based, inlining (or undoing that inlining), hoisting variables out of loops (or inserting them back), and trying to determine where a particular temporary value for calculation is being stored. Again, it's not a _great_ analogy; because I have a hard time determining how understanding the analogy would lead you to correct conclusions about virtual particles, but yeah.

The East India Company was rightly criticized for holding trade monopolies that were later abolished. It's fair to consider whether a company the size of Amazon also has some monopolies and to ask the FTC to investigate or act.
North Korea built a nuclear weapon because they're acting rationally. Nuclear weapons provide them legitimacy and bargaining power, both domestically and internationally. It's the same reason Iran wants a nuclear deterrent, or anybody else for the matter, like the U.S., China, or Russia. When you have the bomb, other powers tend to tiptoe around you--see, e.g., how Pakistan sabotaged US interests in Afghanistan with no discernible repercussions.

The real threat from North Korean nuclear weapons (other than empowering North Korea geopolitically) is in proliferation. And that's probably one (albeit minor) reason everybody tends to look away when they skirt the embargo.

But we can refer to it as his strawberry cake for all I care, as long as it's understood that he doesn't actually live there anymore[2].

I can't speak for other countries, but here in the UK courts can be resistant to charges snowballing like this against a defendant as it's a recognised problem. Fines can be delayed, split into instalments, reduced or put pending against credit history for up to 5 years - although if they find you are able to pay but unwilling they get tough fast. DWL can result in longer suspension of a license, fines, or community service.

It does help that traveling by public transport here is a lot less likely to be a problem, to be fair.

It's worse. Sparta is basically the first proto-fascist state in history (or, at least, the first recorded as such).
That's assuming they'll be able to scale it. Having a few low-yield nukes doesn't buy you much in terms of offensive capacity, especially not against "old" nuclear powers. But what it does is give you sovereignty - which is why I think NK wants to have those nukes.

The reality of modern world is that nuclear powers get to push around every other nation without consequences, whether overtly (like US getting away with invading two countries in the recent years) or covertly (proxy wars). But the world sees the use of nuclear weapons as qualitatively different from conventional ones, so having even one nuke you can threaten other countries with seems like an effective way to deter other powers from bullying you too hard.
Unlike using a DNS or host file, with TrackerControl you can apply rules per host and/or per app, even block an app from using the internet at all. Also, one can log all the traffic and classify it per app, so it gives a lot of insight into which apps are communicating in the background and how often.

Note that the VPN that TrackerControl uses runs fully on the device (and TC itself is opensource) so there is no need to trust any additional third-party servers.

Ask HN: Books that teach you programming languages via systems projects?
Looking for a book/textbook that teaches you a programming language through systems (or vice versa). For example, a book that teaches modern C++ by showing you how to program a compiler; a book that teaches operating systems and the language of choice in the book is Rust; a book that teaches database internals through Golang; etc. Basically, looking for a fun project-based book that I can walk through and spend my free time working through.

Any recommendations?
There are occasions in social science where it is reasonable to question whether or not the study has become part of that hard to pin down category that social theorists talk about... namely, the kind that is used to justify and perpetuate the status quo.

tl;dr of course a study of a society in which large amounts of free time is not a thing would yield people suffering culture shock when they experience it.

Napoleon had a tremendous impact on many western nations long after his defeat. The most notable and positive example in my opinion is the base of the modern civil law system still in effect today in many of the conquered countries. The same codes based on the Napoleonic code were also exported to the colonies of those countries and many others which then retained it after their independence. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Napoleonic_Code. And IMHO the civil law is a much better legal system than the common law used in most of the US, the UK and Australia among others. This goes to show that it's never binary and even the worst tyrants and dictators also sometimes achieve good positive things. This is probably valid for all of them.
I'm really having trouble phrasing this because I feel like ultimately we agree, but does passing the vibe check actually matter? Or whose doing the checking?

I wanted to note that GQ spent the time to separate the motivation of the feat, distinguishing a call for autonomy, sport and environmentalism. With the local context, it’s too easy to project one image while there’s much more of a Terrence Mallick-like introspection in the daily reality of the track. Few journalists give time to that distinction.
I’ve wanted to try Ada and Spark for a while mainly to try formal verification and because a professor I listened to for a while keep banging on that most bugs don’t need to be written if you use Ada properly. (Shrug.) Who knows, I’d like to try it sometime.
Two other beliefs about Ada:

1. It was designed by committee.

According to Wikipedia, it was designed by a small team at Honeywell Bull in France. A different connotation from the label 'committee'. What is the more accurate description? It may seem unimportant, but most programming languages are designed by one or two individuals and the word 'committee' is perceived negatively by many developers. (Aside: Julia was designed by multiple authors, but no-one says the language was designed by committee.)

2. Ada is a very large language. Not suitable for small projects.

This belief about the size of the language is true, but the question is: does it matter? I prefer small languages over larger ones, but I would be interested in the opinions of Ada developers. Is the language size irrelevant? And is Ada suitable for projects of any size?
There are ways we can measure perseveration in the lab, and so yes, it can be higher or lower in different people. If you want to look into it more, a popular way to measure it is the Wisconsin Card Sort Test (WCST), or the version for children, the Dimension Change Card Sort task (DCCS). However, like all cognitive tests, these are imperfect measurements of perseveration - they may be indicators of higher or lower perseveration, but scores may be influenced by a multitude of other factors as well. Likewise, there may be aspects of perseveration not captured by these tests - like you mention, there are different ways that one can be perseverative, and one single number can't ever represent the complexity of human behavior.

> Honest question: Why not just give Taiwan nukes?

Fair question, here's at least one answer:

1. that's a violation of the non-profileration treaty and the USA and the West basing its entire legitimacy on the rule of law. Values and all that.

See how far student-union whataboutism gets you once you do that.

2. because nukes are counter-productive: you cannot fire one nuke - you have to fire them all. The second Russia sees the nuclear flashes from US assets, ALL of their nukes start flying.

Unless you think Putin is going to wait to see exactly where in Asia hundred of thermonuclear ICBMs are aimed at.

And the first to land will be in Berlin, Tokyo, Paris, London, Amsterdam, Rome, Jerusalem, Sydney, Toronto [1]. (Before you press the down-vote, take the time to investigate the Sampson Option in orthodox MAD nuclear deterrence).

And that is not counting the Chinese nuclear response.

There are true facts and false facts.

Even right wing historians find the orientation of the puy du fou wrong.

Ainsi, comme le soulignent Jean-Clément Martin, historien spécialiste de la Révolution française, de la Contre-révolution et de la guerre de Vendée, et Valérie Sottocasa, maître de conférences en histoire moderne à l'université Toulouse-Jean-Jaurès, le spectacle, « d'emblée militant et symbolique »12 exalte « le mythe d'un âge d'or durant lequel nobles et gens du peuple étaient soudés par un même idéal communautaire »11 mais « qui a servi jusqu'à nos jours à consolider une culture politique dont témoignent les commémorations du Puy du Fou, sans doute les plus spectaculaires du genre11 ». La mobilisation des populations locales dans le cadre d'« une association défendant les valeurs de la famille et de la tradition » s'inscrit dans ce cadre : il s'agit de « populariser une idée de l'histoire de France teintée de Contre-Révolution »13, comme le montrent en outre dans les années 1980 et 1990 les thématiques des colloques qui s'y déroulent ou l'utilisation de la venue d'Alexandre Soljenitsyne. Jean-Clément Martin et Charles Suaud font remarquer en outre que le spectacle de la Cinéscénie dépeint une société paysanne vendéenne faussement uniforme « privée de ses contradictions internes, soumise aux aléas des saisons et des traumatismes extérieurs », occultant à la fois les affrontements ayant eu lieu en Vendée entre catholiques et protestants pendant les guerres de religion et les rapports de domination économique et sociale13.

It's a trap to equate "progressive" social change with democracy. It's perfectly possible to have a socially liberal society that's also very authoritarian. In fact the Western world is going in that direction.

The rule of law is a better example of an artifact of democracy.
