The dropdown listbox, optgroup labels, and options should all be part of the CSS box model and have all the styling options available. That would allow full styling (including border, margin, padding, text and background colour) and make the listbox match the other element styling.

That would go a long way, but doesn't support more complex UI like checkboxes in the dropdown (for a compact multiselect component), a treeview instead of a listbox (including checkbox support), and highlighting parts of option text for things like autocomplete (with the ability to filter based on what's being typed).

It would also be useful to know if the listbox is being displayed above or below the select, so with a rounded border, you can style both the select input and listbox to have a flat edge on the top or bottom accordingly.

For checkboxes, it should be possible to theme them more easily, including:
1. border width, colour, and radius for the box;
2. a graphic or unicode character for the checked and mixed states;
3. optionally an image for the entire checkbox.
Most of those incongruities were solved as soon as people stopped trying to model dinosaurs after lizards. The pterosaurs one was solved when they stopped modeling them after birds.

I'm not sure the blood pressure one was solved, but given we have current animals with features that could solve their problem, it's not too much to expect that it's not a fundamental problem and we will find how it was solved when we get a detailed enough picture of their necks.

Chernobyl's containment is not massive concrete, and cannot sustain a hit from a bomb in any way. The new safe containment structure is metal and air, it's meant to contain dust as the reactor building inside is dismantled. Watch this to learn all about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mdnutU2m71o

The old sarcophagus that was build in 1986 only had concrete walls in a few key places. Much of it had huge holes and open areas covered in sheet metal. All of it was falling apart and rapidly deteriorating when construction on new safe containment started.

And remember there are 3 other reactor buildings at the site and none of them are covered by the containment structure or really any protection (Chernobyl's Soviet era design which lacks a concrete containment structure is partly why its meltdown was so catastrophic). The site cannot withstand any attack.

US, France and UK have guaranteed that no country will ever dismantle their nukes for a piece of paper. This will make the world much more dangerous with Iran pursing nukes which will be shortly followed by Saudi Arabia. North Korea will never disarm. Proliferation will continue and technology advancements will make it easier for countries to acquire nukes.

It's more likely that a nuclear exchange would start with limited use of tactical nuclear weapons. Let's imagine that Russia does invade a NATO country and is beaten back by NATO forces after significant fighting within NATO territory. Maybe some of those hawks higher up the chain of command want to make sure Russia can't regroup and try again so they pursue Russian forces into Russia itself in an attempt to encircle them and force a surrender of a significant number of their troops. Russian higher ups misinterpret this as a push to capture Russian territory or the start of a larger invasion and decide to use a small number of low yield nuclear weapons to destroy the invading forces. Now you have thousands of dead NATO soldiers and a mess of confusion with multiple nuclear detonations on the Russian border. NATO counterattacks by targeting airbases and missile assets using cruise missiles and aircraft with conventional warheads in an attempt to prevent any further strikes. At that point things can heat up quickly.

In a hot war where multiple countries are involved you can't expect the fighting to just stop once you hit a border. Even when you have the upper hand, the temptation to carry through once you are already engaged in a conflict is real.
The order isn't what mattered. What mattered is that he was a Russian stooge that fled rather than that he was prosecuted for selling out the country.

I'm not really sure what you are trying to argue here, this is pretty much settled history.
> less so for the Baltic states

And... the US and allies and also Russia because if Russia attacks them we're 100% going to war with Russia to defend those allies. There's 0 question of that. It goes back to my OP which is what happens after that starts. Putin knows he can't take on NATO 1-1, so why would he attack those countries? Well he has nuclear weapons and can launch tactical nuclear strikes on NATO airbases and dare the west to risk nuclear war over these countries.
As a single guy and a software engineer, I would pay full price for a pod housing if the area is safe convenient. I'd rent a co-working desk nearby and save a ton of money.

These types of housing just aren't available in Vancouver (or NA in general), but I can totally see a market for it.
I would say that the economics literature is very clear that international trade is frequently not beneficial to all involved. Haiti would be a clear example of a case when it was not.
Russian oligarchs will not apply pressure to Putin. They are all accomplices now.

All this politics theater of the past few days was to make everyone of notice show support for invasion, in public form. Lawmakers, Security council, oligarchs, senators, everyone. So they would know they won't be able to betray him and escape. They are all forced to make their bones.
This is widely debated, both in Russia and the West.
I hope that beside strong condemnations, the US will also help with money (wars are expensive!) and stuff useful at war, from medical supplies to maybe weapons like Stingers and Javelins.

I also hope that the US will share intelligence information; US's abilities here are far greater than Ukraine's.
On the other hand without globalization, there is no way the relatively tiny island of Taiwan could have become the world leader in chip manufacturing, and the US would have less incentive to invest in their security.

Delusional parasitosis is quite the opposite of "Munchhausen's". Sufferers can't even be described as hypochondriac. It's a psychiatric disorder, and they seek help because they suffer.

In "Munchhausen's" people seek suffering to get help, to oversimplify by a few magnitudes. But it's really not the same thing.

And QAnon-followers are in their majority not suffering from psychotic delusions.

To be clear, though, under international law China has every right to fly in those areas. Just like when we fly/sail 12 miles off Russia, or send ships past the islands China's making in the South China Sea.

Somewhat counterintuitively, the primary gas species used in excimer lasers are noble gasses. A typical gas mix for a 193nm excimer laser would be ~97% neon and just a few percent of the actual argon/fluorine excimer mix. [1]

Since you mentioned them -- as hard as it may be to believe -- HeNe lasers are only just beginning to be phased out in the semi industry in the somewhat esoteric use case of precision position measurement using interferometry. The output wavelength of a HeNe lase is extremely stable--with a simple feedback loop on the cavity length (ie, temperature) a HeNe laser is essentially an atomic clock locked to the 473.612248 THz 5s2 → 3p HeNe line. Interferometers built around such systems can accurately measure sub-nanometer displacements and are able to achieve a lifetime absolute stability of better than 10ppb--comparable to a rubidium atomic clock!

That cuts both ways. NATO air assets over Western Ukraine would have forced Russia to start a shooting conflict with a nuclear alliance.

As is, they were able to move into Ukraine without nuclear risk, because the US explicitly said we wouldn't put troops there.

And let's not pretend Russia shooting down a US plane or vice versus would start a nuclear war. It happened fairly commonly during the Cold War, quietly.
NATO drew their line in the sand. Intervene when it's crossed. It's better to not bait and switch a nuclear power into war.
> It doesn't actually provide any buffer that makes sense from a geographic standpoint

Huh? It's right in between Russia and Europe. Right on the route by which previous invasions of Russia from Europe have come.

> He's also going to have to occupy a country

He doesn't have to permanently occupy it. He just has to prevent it from joining NATO.

> he's galvanized NATO

I think "galvanized" is a little strong. No NATO country is going to actually try to help Ukraine resist the invasion. The worst consequence is economic sanctions, and the historical track record of economic sanctions is not good. I expect Putin believes that his country can manage no matter what economic sanctions NATO nations throw at it.

> Finland and Sweden are going to join (in my view) by the end of the year

I think that's highly likely, yes. And it doesn't change Russia's threat environment in the least because no invasion of Russia is going to come via Sweden and Finland. If Russia intended to invade Finland and Sweden, them joining NATO would be a negative consequence, but I doubt Putin intends that.

> and people aren't going to associate with his country anymore.

I don't think Putin cares about that either.

> the devastation being caused to Russia

What devastation? If you mean economic sanctions, I think you are drastically overestimating their effects on Russia.

> The reality is that the United States will go to war and fight Russia to defend NATO.

So all Putin has to do to avoid that is to not attack a NATO member country. Which Ukraine is not. In fact, your argument here is an argument for the view I've been taking, that Putin does not intend to keep on invading country after country--because he knows invading a NATO country would bring consequences he doesn't want.
That's correct. You don't put missiles in range of a nuclear superpower's population centers and expect them to ignore it. But I feel that the timing of this is more related to Putin's political situation at home.

Wow! I'm working on something exactly like this as a personal project!

I have a few questions about how you're doing time segmentation.

Are you using a purely text based approach? as in your pipeline looks like
STT -> some BERT based model for segmentation/summary?

or are you using a text + audio model to get extra signal?

Have you found any cool tricks (pre-processing/heuristics) that really improved your approach?

How are you dealing with ad placement insertion that can have different times for different users? For example user A might have a 30 second ad inserted and user B might have two ads inserted for a total of 60 seconds. That would shift all your times at a user specific level. Or are you serving the podcasts from your own server?

My project goal is slightly different than yours in that my goal is almost entirely automatically skipping ads until I am able to just pay a subscription fee to the podcasters to support their content.

The scary thing is if NATO decide to get involved, and it turns into war between NATO and Russia, then the security of the Baltic States plummets.

Currently, as NATO members, they are not likely to be attacked, but if NATO declares war then that deterrent is gone.

Hopefully not a likely scenario, but who knows.. There's been a lot of tension lately, especially with the likes of Belarus bussing migrants across the border into Lithuania etc, but no idea where this will end.

What could they have done, throw the unarmed nukes at Russia? You also leave out the fact that Russia and the UK signed as well.
Not the reason though. Kosovo was not a part of NATO either. It's just that Russia is not Serbia.
Aside from the numbers game, ICBMs used to be the fastest way to deliver a warhead, with the obvious drawback that anyone watching the horizon can see it coming from half a world away.

Nuclear warheads have been further miniaturized since the cold war, it is now possible to fit them into cruise missiles.

> The deployment of Kalibr missiles, long-range, low-flying, capable of carrying conventional or nuclear warheads, available in land-attack, anti-ship and anti-submarine variants, was said to have altered the military balance in Europe and potentially compromised the NATO missile defence system under construction in Europe.

There's also the rumored/propagandized hypersonic, nuclear powered cruise missiles (skyfall [1]) that are meant to defeat missile defense and circumvent MAD by enabling undetected first strike.

Disclaimer, I'm just a web developer with access to wikipedia yo
I'd expect lots of Russian targets outside of Russia proper to receive some ballistically-delivered nastygrams if Russia attacked a NATO member. They'd all have to be treated as hostile. Forces in Syria, in Belarus, ships outside Russian waters, et c., would all be at grave risk. Not a great move if they've got a large percentage of their forces outside their own borders (i.e. in Ukraine) when that goes down.

I agree that NATO would be very reluctant to so much as fire an artillery shell over the Russian border, but Russia might well forfeit a great deal of personnel and equipment in such a move, anyway. Having troops & equipment abroad is a major liability if you pick a fight with a country (or coalition) that badly outclasses you.
> It makes more sense as a bargaining chip with Ukraine

What's the proposition? Russia's already committed to ending the idea of Ukraine as a country.
Great comment.

Biggest mistake the West has made is thinking that soft power will work with Putin. He just doesn't care. Sanction some oligarchs and he still goes home to his palace like nothing ever happened.
The article calls out exactly one quote:

They appear to be arguing against that narrative rather than for the opposite.
>With due respect, your comment would benefit from a better understanding of French 20th century history

In the comment to which I replied to there was a reference to Nazi occupation, and there was a reference to Vichy France.

I made a short paragraph commenting about Nazi occupation but not mentioning Vichy France. Why would you think that meant I did not know what Vichy France was? Normally I would think this person wants to focus on the Nazi occupation part here for some reason?

Then I segued into another paragraph where I mentioned Denmark and said I did not think the Nazi occupation meant that democracy was destroyed. At this point I might even think, that guy wants to talk about Denmark, or maybe just various Nazi occupations in general and thus his reasons for ignoring Vichy France!

But at any rate my point is that if Denmark had engaged in Vichy like collaboration with the Germans, if there had been established an independent Danish government forced into a quasi-fascistic mode then I suppose the return to democracy would have been more difficult and noteworthy, but as there was not such a system (there was an attempted National Socialist Danish party but it got very few votes) I don't think occupation was a destroyer of the democratic norms, especially as the Danish government was officially disbanded at one point in protest of the death penalty for sabotage being set by the occupying Germans.

Why did I say so much about Denmark in this post, and so much in the previous, and not really seem to care about Vichy France? I don't know, my name is just Bryan Rasmussen and I suppose the reasons for my interests in Denmark in this discussion must remain shrouded in impregnable mystery.

Tried it, simple enough. Are number of tiles revealed tracked or is the only statistic just number of guesses? It'd be a better metric to see how many guesses it took with how many tiles were revealed. Right now it looks like I could reveal all the tiles and guess in one try.
If you look at what was actually agreed to, it seems like the US and EU are already doing more than obligated. I don't see any nuclear weapons being used, the west has respected their sovereignty, and is even economically sanctioning Russia and providing intelligence and equipment. Bringing this to the security council would do nothing anyways, as Russia is a part of it and any resolution would just get vetoed. The only party that's actually breached the agreement is Russia.

Respect Belarusian, Kazakh and Ukrainian independence and sovereignty in the existing borders.[17]
Refrain from the threat or the use of force against Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.
Refrain from using economic pressure on Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine to influence their politics.
Seek immediate Security Council action to provide assistance to Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine if they "should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used".
Refrain from the use of nuclear arms against Belarus, Kazakhstan and Ukraine.
Consult with one another if questions arise regarding those commitments.[13][18]
The problem is that it won't likely be a direct invasion. Estonia has a significant Russian minority and we've seen this play book before:

Does NATO intervene when Russia starts (or really continues) courting pro-Russian politicians?

Does it intervene if that minority starts protesting?

Does it when that minority starts resisting?

Does it when Russia smuggles them arms?

Does it when little green men show up?

Does it when the rebels (now mostly little green men) advance West?

This go around the West tried sanctions and it obviously didn't work. Estonia is far more Western and fewer historic ties to Russia than Ukraine did. So it might not progress past step 1 in the playbook. Almost certain that Putin is going to try and likely will try for at least a couple decades to come.
From Russias POV it was.
