It's possible since each country has their own history books. What countries did north korea, cuba, etc invade in your history books. Now compare that with the list of countries britain, australia, france, canada, US, etc invaded.

List the countries currently occupied by "autocracies". Now list the countries we occupy.

List the nations genocided by democracies. It's rather shocking. So on and so forth.

Not saying autocracies are good. Just that the idea that democracies are necessarily good is simply not true. Democracies have committed the worst crimes against humanity. It wasn't an autocracy that did hiroshima or nagasaki. But we each have our own history books I guess.

What? Why couldn't an MCU interface with my computer? It's not like it has special electrons or something in it. I regularly program atmega chips with a cable I made that plugs into the parallel port on the back of any computer that has one. If you have a couple GPIO pins on a motherboard, you can probably program almost any MCU with with it.

The only exception is if the motherboard GPIO was say 3.3v and you had a 1.8v only MCU, but level shifters aren't exactly expensive.
This book pretty much lays out those other scenarios:

* Use subversive tactics to destabilize countries

* Use natural resource control to pressure countries

* Use military as a last resort when influence fails

Basically, make energy deals with Germany, ignore the US and UK and install puppet governments in Eastern Europe through bribery and propaganda until they can be annexed or granted “special status”.

Yikes! I used a no-name charger on my Dell Latitude for quite a while, and it never stopped me from charging. Just annoyed me about it (press F1 to continue on boot) whenever I took the battery out (wiping the CMOS) and didn't turn off the AC warnings in the BIOS. The one I was using didn't have a serial chip in it, so the laptop flagged it as unknown.

> Isn't this going to have some serious economic repercussions for Russia?

Russia's been sanctioned for nearly a decade. They're probably the most resource-rich nation on earth and have a nearly fully self-sufficient economy. What little they need they can get from China.

Also, when people look at Russia's GDP, they need to look at REAL numbers (ie. Adjusted for PPP). Russia's real GDP is ~3x higher than their nominal GDP (because sanctions drive down currency trade and make the nominal number basically useless).
I think fear of countermeasures unbalancing MAD is also what’s driving development of Russia’s non-ballistic missile based warhead delivery systems, like status-6 [1].

Is this the same as ALA in flax-seed oil that is supposedly good for us?
That's not the right measure. That's of "running NATO" itself ($2-$3B, for training missions etc), which is pocket change compared to the actual defense budgets.

And the US far, far dominates actual national defense spending, which is what matters for collective defense. It's the $700B the US spends on defense that backs the NATO defense commitment, not the couple billion spent on training missions.

That is why I keep repeating AMD is still not doing enough on Severs and GPU market, both on Anandtech and HN. But most AMD fans tell me they are fine. And this was before Pat Gelsinger took back Intel. Now judging from Intel's roadmap and their current speed and execution, things aren't looking too good.

But I disagree with GPU, Intel ( or more precisely Raja koduri ) still has a lot to prove about their GPU. It is coming close to 5 years since he joined Intel, on a project that started before his arrival, and they still have yet to ship a single thing. And Drivers Quality. I am still waiting for actual reviews.

And that is speaking as someone who bought AMD shares at under $3.
Democracy comes in three parts. It's possible to have elections, yet still not be a democracy. I suspect that has something to do with the confusion.
No offense, but this feels like trying too hard to make the argument that a perfectly normal pattern is somehow too obtuse to be considered.

I'm guessing you're trying to argue that something like a pill autocompleter is more appropriate for specific use cases (e.g. the `to:` field in email clients). And sure, sometimes some controls are better suited than others depending on the use case, but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's impossible to implement similarly complex controls by leveraging standard controls as opposed to reinventing headless behaviors on top of div soup[0]

I think Intel is posed to sink further. Instead of mending their ways and making a effort to please their customers, they apparently are doubling down on consumer-abusive practices, given the whole SDS (software disabled silicon, aka "software defined silicon") bullshit. Now, instead of selling expensive lame hardware, their big idea is to keep selling lame hardware, but then charging extra to unlame it. That's awful.

I hope RISC-V take off, so we finally have a viable, competitive open alternative to the x86 duopoly. We were lucky AMD survived and avoided us a total monopoly, but that's not a ideal situation either.
The source for this analysis comes from V-Dem project. Specifically related to India, the V-Dem results are highly questionable. Their results have been rebutted point-by-point in this (paywalled) piece [1].

I will highlight one aspect of the questionable results from the analysis about India. There's a "Clean elections index" in the V-Dem project which is about absence of registration fraud, irregularities, election violence etc. Interestingly India's clean elections index score keeps sliding downward after 1998. Note that India was under officially declared emergency from 1975-77 and an election was held in 1977. The V-Dem clean election index doesn't reflect this phenomenon.

India adopted the electronic voting machines (EVM) sometime between 1998-2001. Before using EVM, paper ballots would be used for elections. It is well documented [2] that EVMs have helped ensuring freer and fairer elections. Anecdotally I would remember so many incidents of booth-capturing (described in [2]) and re-elections due to irregularities, prior to the EVM era.

Exactly. Things have not gone very well in Russia in recent years. Average people getting poorer. Many casualties in Covid after population has been going down already for longer time. Russia's economy being pretty small internationally if you take the size of the country into account.

Putin just wants to move domestic attention away from all the misery that people will hold him reponsible for. Now war will dominate the agenda. And if someone complains about life getting worse, it's the war, not the incapable president.
An actual event would be an act of war. Base assumption is that most systems are currently compromised and on standby.

Russia has 6000 nuclear weapons and 100 million people. The US has ~5000 nuclear weapons and 300 million people. It's in the interest of the US to see the Russian nuclear stockpile reduced by strangling its economy. Russia's demographics are already in a nosedive.

Europe has been largely demilitarized with the US providing protection. It would be a strategic blunder for the US to abandon its position in Europe to Russia.
> We have been using ghee in India for thousands of years.

Doing something unhealthy for “thousands of years” does not make it healthy.
The risk of NATO intervention is extremely low considering Ukraine is not in NATO. The whole NATO narrative was just Russian propaganda to try and justify Putins land grab. Russia wants Ukraine back and are willing to take it by force thats all that is happening here, there is no big complicated global politics here just more cold war fallout.

Hitler in 1939 had economic/industrial parity with at least one, if not two of his primary combatants (France and UK). He then had good reason to believe that other countries either would not engage (USA) or were highly overrated (USSR). He also had allies of significant weight. (1)

Russia in 2022 has a GDP of $1.5T, and NATO has a combined GDP of $42T (2). Even if you make the case that Russia's current economic activity translates more effectively into wartime industry, I don't believe you can possibly make the case that it is 28x more effective.

Germany also had military technology and strategy advantages (see France in 1940) over its (early war) opponents. As good as Russia's "math and science talent" is, I would be shocked if it was even a quarter of the capability that the US alone has.

So no, Putin in 2022 is not comparable to Hitler in 1939.

I think if the second option was status quo and Russian military weren't occupying the area, and the "stay with Ukraine" side had been allowed to campaign, I think the vote share for stay would have been much higher. Even ignoring the potential of voter fraud due to Russia not allowing real third party observers.

I don't know exactly what it would be or if it would be over 50%, but we should reject the obvious sham that Russia carried out.
That depends on how much of the effort requires CPU work in order to transfer data to the GPU relative to the work that will actually be done on the GPU. For text rendering it's possible but not a given you'll save all that much, depending on how fast your GPU is, and how big you're rendering the glyphs, and whether or not you're applying any effects to them.

For most text-heavy apps there's little reason for the text-rendering to be a bottleneck either way.

Sorry, that was me being lazy because I was typing on my phone. The government tallies up all qualified expenses the company has (salaries, benefits, rent, utilities, etc). And then tallies up all how many hours employees worked on "direct labor" so things directly related to a client (in lawyer speak, think "billable hours"). And then they come up with a ratio which is your overhead rate and that's the rate you're allowed to charge the government.

all_expenses / total_hours_worked_by_all_employees = average_rate
all_expenses / direct_hours_worked_by_all_employees = direct_rate
direct_rate / average_rate = overhead_rate
my_hourly_rate * overhead_rate = my_billing_rate

There's more nuance on what are qualified expenses and what are direct hours and things like that, but the government has formulae, and they determine your billing rate - or at least the overhead that turns into the billing rate.

Now, of course, my company can't pay me $1000/hour which turns into $2800/hour invoices to the government because then we'd be too expensive and never win the contract. So there is downward pressure on salaries because of that, and it prevents us from hiring superstars because their hourly rate will be too high. So that's one reason the government doesn't really get the A team working for them.
There are already tools for that. Still, might I suggest just skipping manually yourself or paying for ad free access? Creators need to be reimbursed for their efforts, otherwise we'll only be left with those rich enough to do it free or increasingly subtle 'native' ads.

This book lays out one endgame: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foundations_of_Geopolitics

The “Finlandization of Europe”.

The idea is to use bribery and propaganda to destabilize Eastern Europe countries until puppet governments rise to power or can be installed, while holding Central Europe at bay through leverage on natural resources. Make deals with Germany and ignore the US and UK.

Basically, take over Europe and break up NATO. Military action is the backup plan when the above coercion fails.

I don't know. Part of the problem is the existing sanctions causing pressure on Putin. So he diverts attention by sabre ratteling, starting a war.

One way to solve this would be to give Putin a honorable way out. He might give up if the status of Ukraine is officially accorded as non NATO. Give him on paper what was promised in words in the 90s.
