I think that the point is, Canada has demonstrated that, by using laws allegedly designed to combat terrorism, governments can easily cease FIAT assets and accounts from political opponents... or everybody.
Ah yes, the good old American Exceptionism.
But do they run Linux?

ThinkPads were always great for Linux and I've been happy with them ever since I can afford them (6 years now).
It works as presented: 1 then 2 leads to 3.
I suspect you're replying to someone suffering from schizophrenia, which makes it difficult to organize speech and writing clearly sometimes. But maybe they just speak English as a foreign language, and not very well?
I was also initially skeptical, but after looking into IPFS, I think the core ideas are real and useful. IPFS is inspired by bittorrent, and addresses some of the issues with bittorrent that keep torrenting a very manual process. Debian did experiments with bittorrent mirrors, they worked poorly. I think IPFS is worth trying since it could actually work.
While it is correct that Ukraine did not have operational control over the nuclear weapons, anybody who have nuclear weapons in their possession, and who have the engineering resources of an entire state, would be easily able to disassemble the weapons, reverse engineer the connections to the devices that initiate the detonation and substitute the control units in order to gain operational control.

Such an operation cannot need more than a few months at most.

Therefore Ukraine, and any country which would have been in the same situation and would have chosen to give up their own nuclear weapons, really made willingly a choice to act in this way, because they also had the alternative choice of gaining control over the weapons and the Russians would not have been able to stop them.
Because it’s far more likely that the author chose slightly wrong words that ended up conflating a specific invention with being the first human “to invent the idea” that “hey, brighter lights would be closer to obviously brighter daylight” only 5 years ago. I’d wager that the author realizes that more than half of adults today had that insight sometime prior to 2017.
There's talk that the only an-2 produced, that resides in Ukraine, was damaged or destroyed.
Regarding numbers like CO2 emission per MW that is definitely true.

However, the highly destructive, scary and dangerous trash that it does produce is like a comical epitome of the kind of visible pollution the first generation green movement was fighting. There is a reason that dystopian sci-fi trash heap illustrations always feature a leaking nuclear barrel.

Combined with the fact that Germany is just (fairly) densely populated everywhere, criticism of storage solutions are not about endangered desert lizard species, but about radiation spikes in elementary schools.

I'm both German and would like to re-establish nuclear here as a necessary evil, but I get the contra points. I hope this gives some perspective :)
I think the underlying point is not about the actual Canadian truckers, but the fact that Canadian truckers got all their donations canceled by a central authority.

You might think that the central authority was right because the truckers were all 'crazy conspiracy people', but the underlying point remain : if you're in a line of politics that can get you on the wrong side of a central authority that can stop you, might be better to go for solutions that are less dependent on central authorities.
> I scarcely believe that I was the first to use them, being so common in literature, but incorporation in computer sets is a different thing.

This begs the question: where did curly braces come from originally? Parentheses are common in prose writing, but I can’t think of why type writers or computers would have all had {} characters if there weren’t a history of their use. Wikipedia doesn’t seem to mention any literary history either (in fact it reference this article as their introduction to ASCII only).

I suppose maybe set notation introduced them first? But I know that math notation we use today isn’t always the notation that the inventors used when first proposing ideas, so it’d be interesting to learn who first used curly braces for sets, and whether they invented that symbol or whether printing presses already could print them.
It does have exit nodes, but they are not the point of I2P. In my view, the main advantage is the possibility of peer-to-peer connections like torrents.

Yes, but AFAIK it's generally harder. See also: https://geti2p.net/en/comparison/tor.
Those are some cool reads!
I'm not even sure geopolitical. Or do you think Ukraine would get all the NATO support if they had an arsenal of nukes outside of NATOs control? Culd easily be that NATO would tentatively ally with, un-officially of course, with Russia to get rid of a potentially rogue nuclear nation. Depending of the Ukrainian government of course. Or that Russia would have already annexed the whole lot during the Orange revolution. No way to tell.

Personally, as bad as war is for those in the region, every war in which belligerents don't have nukes is better. Because there is less risk of "accidently" causing a nuclear exchange.

We seriously need to start charging the people who make these decisions at companies like Boeing for the crimes they committed like we would anyone else. Colorado sentenced a truck driver for a multiple fatality accident that killed 4 to over 100 years in prison because the driver was deemed negligent. But if you're a corporation like Boeing who's gross negligence kills hundreds the company just gets an inconsequential fine. Why do we have to play by the rules but corporations don't? Every Boeing executive who was involved in this should be in prison right now.
Oh hmm, that would be bad, though it looks more like my friend's writing (who, now that you mention it, I'm not entirely sure doesn't have schizophrenia, hmm) than, say, TempleOS's comments.

It's coherent, just uses way too many references for outsiders to understand. Maybe you're right, though, thanks for clarifying!

It is worst than Afghanistan. Russian losses for 5 days are at the scale of a year in Afghanistan. And Russia doesn't even pick a lot of bodies. There is ton of videos of aftermath of various fights across the Ukraine with Russian bodies strewn around. Ukraine asked Red Cross to be a receiver of all those bodies.

Russia isn't going for democratic revolution as people just aren't capable of it. Russia is kept together by the strong centralized power. Once that power gets critically wounded (like 30+ years ago USSR by Afghanistan) the regional, especially in the far from Moscow regions like the mentioned Khabarovsk, elites will try to split out to have their own autocratic dukedoms, and naturally becoming China's client states.

China's support of that Russian war is a non-loosing bet - if Russia succeeded China would have gotten the agreed upon Russian support of the Taiwan takeover, and if Russia loses, especially catastrophically like it looks now, it gets very weak and sky is the limits for China's actions in that scenario.
Oh thanks! I missed that page.
Excellent article, and the thing is that if you spend any time talking to gamers or on gaming platforms, there’s a near consensus on this attitude against in-game purchases that contribute nothing to gameplay. Even though people still make these purchases, I’d say most of them are conscious of the fact that the current trend is detrimental to gamers.

As a side note, the only people pushing for NTFs in games are crypto enthusiasts or profit-seeking actors who do not care about game experience at all. Even gamers who are also into crypto do not advocate for NTF in games. The whole thing is a shit show IMO.

That's another Antonov design , the An-225.
Very sad, yes, this is the best source I could find https://edition.cnn.com/travel/article/antonov-an-225-larges...

I'm honestly surprised it was destroyed. Why wouldn't the Russians want to use this plane in the future?

EDIT: an-2 != an-225.
Click on the above link look out for skyway and click on that too. Thank me later!
How about they announce ThinkPads with a decent keyboard for a change? :-(

I think you're talking about the An-225, no? the giant one. the An-2 is not a big plane and nearly 20 thousand were built of them.
What would be the tell tales of actual nuclear war? Surely he'd go then for baltics, USA, whole of europe. He'd also place his military in predictable locations to have best chances of protecting Russia after - something that is easily tracked via sats.
It's at least somewhat coherent, but who is Melian? Are we talking about the residents of Melos? (That would make sense in context if we take Thucydides' word of what happened in the Melians' negotiations, but I wasn't familiar with the history.) Why is "Piper" capitalized and "chinese" not? What's with the "spooks leaders" grammatical incongruency?
Disagree. Shock and awe. Remember that this also should have served as showcase of their military tech for arms sales to the world. Only the fact that they used up all their guided missiles in the first two days without achieving anything (resorting to ballistic missiles by the third) shows how in fact it was always smoke and mirrors.
Let me guess, you live in a place lacking significant mosquito populations?

Coming to React, after working with OOP for UI, was pretty mind blowing for me. It is so much better than anything I was working on 5 years ago. React has dramatically improved the landscape as a whole.

That said, I think React is fatally flawed in its necessity to treat state in immutable structures. I wish React could be more like an immediate mode UI library, or a “thin” rendering layer as it was originally advertised. I want to be able to structure and handle my state however I please. I think such a library is bound to come along and topple React.

I don’t think taking security advice from an economist that also happens to fly in the face of all the security experts is really what we need at the moment.

We now have huge amounts of evidence that appeasement as a strategy in general doesn’t go well with dictators and we have a huge amount of evidence that appeasement doesn’t work in particular with this exact dictator.

It’s a bad idea and I would even argue an immoral one.
> Thinkpads often have terrible screens imho

True. I was not interested in Intel Macbooks because the pluses even with that great screen didn't win me over from of thinkpads but M1 has changed the game for me. The battery and performance improvements are just too good to ignore.
You're confusing the AN-2 which is a biplane, single engined mass-produced aircraft weighing about 3000kg, with the AN-225, which is a six-engined one-of-a-kind behemoth weighing about 285,000kg
If you can't convince people to use your solutions because they sufficiently better than the seventeen different things actually want to do with their own time on their own machines then trying to abuse trademarks to force them to use what you would prefer is contrary to the ideals of any free software camp you care to name. You would be laughed at equally from all sides and find no users for Linux II save for rebrands that removed all mention of the toxic mark.

It would be trivial to go on about all the ways and means that this couldn't possibly work but that would be almost besides the point. The fact that you want this to work is by itself problematic. It's a toxic sort of entitlement to a universe that is a little less complicated and a little less free in order to be a little more convenient and its so problematic that the universe is better off without anything that might be contributed in such a spirit.
I think it's not only about arm vs x86. I have a work provided Thinkpad and work provided Macbook Pro (with Skylake CPU) and I prefer to work on the Macbook for the same reason. It's completely silent 99% of the time, whereas Thinkpad has fans blazing 99% of the time and getting very hot. When I look in task manager, it's the usual suspects - corporate bloatware disguised as data protection and antivirus software, taking 40-50% CPU time when idling. Add Chrome and few apps and you got 90-100% CPU usage most of the time.
> It's good to remember Ukraine never possessed operational control of them [0],

Ukraine had full control, and an operational arsenal for a few years. There was no such thing as a PAL on Soviet nuclear weapons.

Ukraine had a fully functioning nuclear force for these few years.

I will give no credibility to claims of Western think tanks who can't tell apart a tank from an apc.

> tablet is much more flexible, you can add the keyboard folio if you want it

Maybe it's just me, but I have the first generation Microsoft Surface Go, which I mainly used as a tablet device, but occasionally attach the keyboard to it when I need to do more extensive typing.

Over time, I discovered the connectivity between the keyboard and the tablet became worse, until it finally failed, and the tablet did not recognize the keyboard. Trying a new keyboard did not fix the problem, so I assume the problem is with the connector on the tablet.

For now, I've bought a BT wireless keyboard, which I can use with the tablet.

For that reason, I've soured on tablets with attachable keyboards, and looking for a small (13-14 inch) 2-in-1 laptop for working on the go.
Apparently they can fly backwards with a sufficient headwind.

Having a hard time finding the source, but another anecdotal report claims they would fly into a headwind, then repel down.
Thanks! I didn't know anybody was reading any of them.
Years ago there were rumors, that they are developing their own super-heavy cargo plane. https://vimeo.com/103542677

If you think pre-installed linux is bad, wait until you try pre-installed windows.

There are happy DOS users.
I haven't actually used it myself, but I believe yes to both. It wraps clang, and while it's not quite as simple as "just a wrapper" it should be able to do anything that clang can do.

At my previous company I was the lead on a team that was tasked with taking projects that had gone off the rails a bit (or a lot...) and try to get them back on track. If you land a role managing a team with a project that's not going well (a common reason for management change) then the book I'd recommend most is "Catastrophe Disentanglement" by E. M. Bennatan. It's very insightful.
Katastrophe!
Alhough I disagree about the buttons, and don't think blue titles are a big deal, I do think those are valid criticisms.

I'd estimate 15-20% of the German population to be pro-nuclear (mainly those leaning to the political right), 50% are indifferent, and 30-35% against nuclear energies. Of course you'll find some conservatives against it (e.g. wealthy homeowners), and you'll find a few leftist technologists that support nuclear energy.

Now the political agenda is (and has been for more than 20 years) to promote renewables. For baseline demand (that renewables cannot reliably provide) Germany is betting on Biogas and better storage mechanisms.

The current administration is left-leaning. The Green Party was founded in the 1980s by environmentalists which made it their mission to get rid of nuclear.

I'd say that the public knows that these types of energy supply have problemens too. And the debate is ongoing.
Tell me one war where shock and awe really worked. If used against a foe that wasn't totally outclassed in every imaginable way.
China is building some, and saying they will build more. But they are not obliged to follow through. We should only count the ones that are actually under construction.
Thanks - ones dealing with children and tech are especially interesting to me, as I've got a toddler who I've so far been able to (mostly) keep away from the glowing screens, but who has already started grabbing my tablet and smacking the keyboard when I'm working from home and he's not at daycare.

I've seen the effects of too much device access at too young an age on younger relatives, and I really, really don't want that for my kid.
The An-2 (NATO reporting name: "Cock") is a single-engined utility biplane used throughout the former Warsaw Pact as a light airliner, cargo plane, and crop duster. Its general performance is comparable to the ancient Douglas DC-3, with the added twist that it generates so much lift at low speeds that it can land and take off from very rough, unprepared fields.

The An-225 Mriya is so much bigger that if you could cram them in, it could carry 77 An-2s as passengers :-)

The way I've learnt this shit was very unstructured, extensively unoptimized and even still, I'm far from being anywhere near the l33ts. However, over the past 2 years, I can say for sure I became pretty proficient in identifying vulnerabilities in (web) applications for the most part.
The article that brought back my interested in hacking was this: https://gist.github.com/jaredsburrows/9e121d2e5f1147ab12a696... after reading this: https://crimethinc.com/2018/06/05/hackback-talking-with-phin....

There was a bunch of things I didn't understand when I first read it, so I took notes of mostly everything and started slowly by isolating topics, trying connect the dots as I was learning something new. Every once in awhile, I would go back to see if there were still things I didn't get it / or had missed, and there was always something. Eventually, the whole thing became a little more straightforward.

From there, it was just a matter of sharping my knowledge regarding more specific types of vulnerabilities and basically try them out into the wild. Worth mentioning, I have a background as a developer and although I had always been interested in cyber security, some concepts just escaped me. My programming skills however, made it easier to understand how to attack / defend applications. But this is just a small part of it.

Hacking is broader than that though, so it's not something that happens overnight. There are things I still have no idea how it works, but at least i know where to look. Also, not knowing a few things here and there doesn't make me necessarily worse than others h4ck3rs, as stupidity plays a huge whole in the cyber security realm as well and quite often, things are easier than you would expect (looking from the attacking standing point). Sitting on the defending side is quite hard though, as you have to covered everything as much as you can, while being an attacker, you just have to get lucky once.

hope this gives you some sort of direction.

I’ve just made this transition myself! Congratulations! I have a very short list of reading recommendations here: https://www.cenizal.com/reading/

In addition to the blog links on that page, I found these books to be the most useful:

High Output Management, by Andy Grove. My number one recommendation for anyone interested in managing people, particularly engineers. This book presents methods and processes for helping individuals maximize their impact, while remaining grounded in reality and humanity.

Thanks for the Feedback, by Douglas Stone and Sheila Heen. This book gave me great insight into how I handle feedback and what I can do to make the most of it. It also helped me understand how others might take my feedback, and develop methods for sharing my feedback effectively.

The Manager's Path, by Camille Fournier. A pragmatic guide to the stages of technical leadership, from tech lead to CTO. A great read even for engineers with no interest in people management, because it provides a clear line-of-sight into what those folks care about and how they make decisions.
