So that's a common hyperbole I guess? I've encountered the term "desperate situation" in writing (fiction) used to highlight subsequent achievements, but I assumed that every instance of "desperation" could at least be replaced with "hopelessness" - which doesn't have to be as harsh as the realities I know, but certainly go exactly opposite to the hope required for a small company to survive and thrive.

Or, you know, if aesthetics or accessibility doesn't work with a native picker I might just use a third-party one instead of requiring my users to switch browsers and OSes.

> so they're preventing Ukraine joining NATO.

It already was the case since 2014, NATO wouldn't accept a country which isn't at peace because they'd be forced to intervene and that would mean a war between Russia and NATO, Russia didn't need further intervention for that

Maybe this is naive, but could SWIFT payments to Russian accounts be banned, while still allowing SWIFT payments from Russian accounts?

That is amusing to a UK resident. We are very resistant to US beef due to the liberal rules on hormones etc. But frankly, given many people's social circumstances in the UK, they are more worried about starving than esoteric medical issues.
I wonder if Russia would have invaded if Ukraine had nuclear weapons.

Collaborative editors are the 1% of sites that are actually applications and need a SPA.

But Yelp is nothing like that. What part of the interface is so advanced? It's just a few links and buttons to navigate to pages and submit reviews. A few JS event handlers can handle AJAX/partial updates without an entire React frontend.

No, "we" did not, it is russian propaganda. And if we are talking about broken promises, there was this thing called Budapest Memorandum.
So I'd say it's a little bit of timing right? Putin builds up forces yet again, says he won't do anything, "NATO at the border of Belarus this is for security", etc. and then he just goes right in and starts fighting. When the fighting starts and he starts attacking NATO forces and they start responding, he launches a tactical nuclear weapon on an airbase somewhere nearby in Central or Eastern Europe and now what? I mean if nothing else what worries me is the prospect of this spiraling way out of control. To your point about Putin being a rational actor... I mean this is rational for him if your world view is that these countries should be united under Russian leadership. If he were rational, then why would he even invade Ukraine? Why is he so paranoid about NATO? All we want to do is respect human rights (and we have tolerances even) and just have open market economies and democracies. If he were rational why not just integrate Russia with Europe and help Russians become fantastically wealthy?

I'm also not sure about the Chinese. I don't think they care. I think they love this.

> To turn the question around, is Putin willing to launch ICBMs because NATO won't let him take Estonia?

My take is yes. I don't think he's nuking New York and London... but military bases in central and Eastern Europe? I mean will NATO nuke Moscow and then actually trigger MAD over that? If we're being honest what are our actual red lines? For America probably US, UK, France, Spain, Italy, Germany. I honestly don't know about any other country in Europe.

"open source" has largely been transformed by large corporations to mean "dev friendly" but user hostile. This is why Libre or "Free" Software continues to further seperate itself from "Open Source"

The Googles, and Microsoft of the world want developer tools, libraries, frameworks etc to be open but not end user software for which they commercialize.

They also do not want to limit their ability to take an "open source" software and make it a SaaS or PaaS on their cloud.

At this point, "open source" is openly hostile to Free Software
Big meetings are often like everyone takes a turn to talk because they’re supposed to, and a few people argue poorly over some point derailing any plan.

I’ve often been in them in the baffling position of seeing two people try to discuss something in a way that’s abundantly clear that neither of them understands what the other is saying in more than a very basic way.

You can definitely have useful big meetings but it gets harder with increasing size. Rules are one defense, but having a room of people actually good at communicating is much better.

And really, do everything you can to kill the meetings where it’s just an obligatory “everybody figure out something to say”

What doesn’t make sense is a resistance to Russia in Ukraine. Ukrainians supporting a hopeless defense against Russia absolutely will die for no reason but their own. They need to flee if Russia will not give them an option to surrender.
Actually, techwise AMD has outperformed Nvidia. Nvidia was only able to keep up because they used Samsung 8nm which is extremely cheap.

AMD silicon is doing much better when it comes to perf/area, Nvidia chips are massive, also Nvidia uses high end expensive GDDR6X memory and still can't completely win the throne.

Nvidia strength is in their software eco-system, things like CUDA and ML frameworks as well as it's popularity among gamers.

Intel is still far behind TSMC when it comes to manufacturing and retook the crown against an old year old architecture from AMD.

* to be clear, I'm not saying AMD is completely dominating Intel, I actually think things today are quite tight. close competition. And once you start looking at players like Apple or Qualcomm, things are looking very competitive.
I think I'm going to cancel my pre-order though, I really do love the steam deck. However, I think I want to wait for the V2 device.

Or put the steam deck in your backpack and USB C connect it to your VR headset.

Hm. I'm not sure it's as rational of that. Do the benefits of invading really pay off? Sure, the slow escalation over the last two months have made it possible for Russia to get a preview and understanding of what the sanction cost etc is.

Maybe he views it as a price tag but in a different way - it has a cost, but what use is resources/money if you can't use it to do what you want? I.e it has a big cost but it's how we wants to use the resources he has at hand, no matter the bottom line.

Raytheon has never guaranteed anything. GMD tests have been very limited with many failures. And I don't mean that as a criticism of Raytheon or the other defense contractors involved; ballistic missile defense is extremely hard and getting it working at all was an amazing technical accomplishment.

There's been rising awareness that researchers refrain from publishing neutral or "boring" results, this is a real problem because it skews the expectations not only of researchers but also the general public.

I've heard an opinion that this was illusion of choice - Ukraine would have had the nukes taken from them anyway - and this was just to save face.
I'm pretty confident that Putin doesn't want to go down in history as the guy who started the nuclear war that ended Russia (and much of the rest of the world). We can call that bluff.
Environmental Impact of Concrete
I don't think Russia is going to lose this one.

People on HN tend to be in denial about the current state of the world, but I don't think Putin is.

We're already starting to see some food shortages across the globe due to climate change, this will only intensify. Together Russia and Ukraine produce 29% of the worlds wheat exports. As climate change worsens food will become as big of a concern as oil.

We are also running out of oil, and not for the naively optimistic reasons most people hope. We're not getting "greener" we're depleting resources and oil still runs economies.

If Russia secures Ukraine they will also secure a place in the end game of civilization, radically altering the power dynamics of the EU.

The point of all this is there is a lot more at stake here than people realize (or are willing to admit). Russia has a lot to gain by control of Ukraine, and therefore can also justify tremendous risk. They have a powerful nuclear arsenal, and are likely more willing to use it than ever before.

MAD only works if you have a future that nuclear war risks throwing away. People that understand energy and climate understand that these things are going to very rapidly change the world stage. All of our futures are at risk, and the time to secure a spot is now. People on HN might be deluded in to thinking "this is fine" but I very much doubt Putin shares this naivete.

On the other end of all this, NATO countries have lived in relative security for a long time. They are still largely terrified of nuclear threat and I believe many of them don't fully realize the situation we're in. Liberal democracies likely have plenty of people in power that really believe Germany is near a truly green future.

I absolutely believe Putin is willing to go nuclear if necessary and I do not believe NATO is really ready to go nuclear in return. I don't believe the US would immediately attack Russia even if Russia wiped Paris off the map, because doing so would guarantee we are all wiped off the map. There is a risk asymmetry here which weakens MAD and give Putin a lot of power, especially if his immediate goal is simply to take Ukraine.

There were assumptions that lots of missiles would malfunction or not reach their intended targets and so various cities and strategic objectives were targeted with multiple warheads from different launch sites. This led to 'overkill':

> That's a bit premature.

I don't think so when looking at what has happened historically. Also, until Putin attacks NATO territory (which he most likely won't) there's not going to be an all out war. We in the West are being a bit hyperbolic. This is a serious issue, but not a "omg nukes are going to be flying next week" level of seriousness. I'd instead watch what China will do with Taiwan while we are distracted...

Russia isn't some democracy that is cool with protesting. There are plenty of Russian's living there that are still USSR brainwashed and support this.

I have five disparate IP subnets whose firewall must NOW have to ascertain that ONLY a certain subnet can access this unbinded netdev … in case the NGINX (or any daemon) starts to sniff unwarranted IP subnet traffic.

And yes , I’ve had to replace NGINX with a web server that can do a netdev bind.

I don't think the people putting these mandates in place appreciate the emotional harm it causes employees. My relationship with my employer went from something slightly positive to pretty negative after just one threatening email. This kind of thing combined with working from home makes finding motivation so much more difficult. It's all subconscious too, and it's much stronger than I would have expected.
So what about prior to 2014? NATO first pitched the idea in 1997, but hadn't actually given Ukraine any guarantees... It feels a lot like the west has been using Ukraine to poke at Russia versus simply integrating Ukraine.

Russia (Putin) is doing this now because Nato members are experiencing internal political discord, and the alliance itself is not presenting a unified front. The past US president threatened to stop aid to Ukraine unless they produced evidence to be used against his political opponent. Germany is tied to Russian gas. Internally, member state politics are reflecting and fomenting social division. Russia chairs the UN Security Council. The world is grappling with Covid.

This move by Russia is intentionally timed because countries themselves struggle to act with a unified voice, much less transnational alliances.

> this is bonkers

> Gamestop's stock

Any stock is priced on multiple factors, one of which is the fundamentals, or the real value of assets and the company's ability to generate revenue. Another factor includes sentiment or guesses about the company's ability to accumulate assets and continue to generate revenue. And the third would be the general state of the investment market, and how equities are valued against other asset classes.

So sure, sentiment can absolutely be bonkers in relation to fundamentals, which is what the parent comment is saying.

Company strategy and achievement are very much relevant to assessing the fundamentals, and attempting to identify the underlying value of a stock, while seeing past the bonkers, irrational valuations.

While it's only "in theory", over a longer timeline, in general, any individual stock will "revert to the mean", that is to say, end up closer to the fundamentals, rather than remain bonkers indefinitely.

Of course you don't have to invest merely on fundamentals. You can use bonkers speculative valuations to your advantage. But to do so, you kind of have to evaluate all the components of an individual stock's pricing.

That's the thing.

This utilized multiple cores by embracing non-determinism. No other Smalltalk VM offers that.
