Agreed. I have not seen any indication of either preparations underway or a more coordinated response, it looked like they got caught flat footed.

Compared to the intelligence out there, the speech by Biden and the troop movements it seemed to me that the writing was on the wall, but it is possible that the German authorities/BND were given false assurances, there is definitely some precedent for that during this conflict.
>Ukraine joining or not joining NATO is irrelevant, a canard, a red herring, a strawman.

It's the number one reason why this is is happening.

Putin said it was a red line on about 75 separate occasions. Ukraine ignored and pushed ahead anyway. NATO ignored and pushed ahead anyway.

Two days before the invasion as Putin announced a "semi" pull out of amassed, Zelensky reiterated his commitment to joining NATO.

NATO destroyed Libya (now on its second civil war). I doubt they'd leave Russia alone after incorporating Ukraine. It would be irrational to not fear its encroachment.
Well, I do not support these Chinese actions but they need food. They are crazy about their food security. Something to keep in mind in world politics.

The move was intended to permit Intel to focus its resources on its core x86 and server businesses.

And that's where Intel continually loses out on markets because the x86 cash firehose is too good.

The XScale sale gained them $600MM, but what did they lose by being shut out of the mobile processor market for the next decade onward?

There are 2 billion iPhones on the planet somewhere and not a single one has an Intel application processor.

> China just wait the USA for semiconductors production capacity

So what.. we're talking 20-30 years in the future? Taiwan will still likely be critical to semiconductor manufacturing as they're starting to take over more of the R&D role that USA has traditionally had.

That far ahead, anything could happen. Hell, China could go through another liberalisation phase. If the blue party in Taiwan gets to power again, China will likely have a period of friendlier relations with Taiwan as well.

> They speak Russian, a Slavic language

Modern Russian is a little bit older than hundred years.

"Pre-reform" language was significantly different in script, vocabulary and grammar and wasn't older than hundred years itself. Before Napoleonic war 1812 nobility was speaking French, ruling family was German and serfs were speaking Polish, Belarusian, Ukrainian or one of the Turkic dialects.

The only slavic parts remaining in the modern Russian is Cyrillic script and words borrowed from Ukrainian.

I learned a lot (particularly the beauty of recursive functions) reading the first half of ML for the Working Programmer. The second edition is online.[1] I did not like it as much as the first edition TBH.

The other ML book that would be in the spirit of SICP is Programming in Standard ML.[2] I did not read the whole thing, but the parts I read influenced my programming style.

You're perhaps missing the point of this.

An old senile man is occupying the office that could have stopped Putin.

Putin didn't even call any bluff. Biden admitted on TV that they aren't doing to do anything weeks ago. Putin did exactly what he said he would do, and Biden is doing exactly what he said he would do.

It's no wonder nothing happened when Trump was in office. How many times do we need to learn that appeasement does nothing. If the Allies stopped Germany when they remilitarized the Rhineland, Hitler would've been done without much of a war. Instead, the world appeased Hitler until it was too late.

The world appeased Putin with Crimea, and then the separatists. The world is appeasing this. What's the next escalation?
You might find inspiration in 2012 movie Seeking a Friend for the End of the World. It does not have especially high rating but I liked it. I keep thinking about it today for some reason. Even if the world does not end, finding a friend is always a good thing.

Your analogy is perfect, because I come to exactly the opposite conclusion.
The difference is that they aren’t involved: remember how one of the selling points for cryptocurrency is that there’s no recourse for fraud built in to the system? If someone pays the state of Colorado with a credit card without the owner’s consent, the state of Colorado has to eat the chargeback cost and other expenses for that transaction.

If someone uses Bitcoin, all they have to do is tell the victim “code is law, try suing them”. The appeal is obvious.
From someone with no knowledge of reverse sear: Why does that seem like a mistake? 130F is how you get medium rare with a sous-vide setup. If you're talking long and slow using an oven, it seems reasonable to me that you'd aim for the same internal temp as sous-vide.

There’s no such thing as an unbiased news source. Al Jazeera is a prominent source for news about matters in the Middle East, and I want to read what they have to say, as do other HN users.

Constructive discourse requires differing perspectives on reality, many of which may be uncomfortable. For example, I can’t begin to understand the situation in Ukraine without also understanding how Russia is portraying the matter. While we can’t stop you from requesting censorship, the answer will always be “no.”

At the very least IKEA must have shrunk the market for fully assembled furniture, especially at the low end of the market. Any company that does want to play there is now doing it at substantially lower volume, negatively impacting unit economics.

Where I live I can definitely still buy fully assembled luxury furniture. I’m hard pressed to think of anywhere that would sell you a new, assembled bookcase for under $500 though.
The phrasing does not read like a solid confirmation to me:

> This was the world’s largest aircraft, AN-225 ‘Mriya’ (‘Dream’ in Ukrainian). Russia may have destroyed our ‘Mriya’. But they will never be able to destroy our dream of a strong, free and democratic European state. We shall prevail!

The original reverse sear recipe is 115° for med-rare, 125° for med, assuming you’re gonna pump a lot more heat into it getting the crust (plus carryover).

Edit: to maybe answer your actual question, I think sous vide has a different goal. Different final textures, maybe more refined? Reverse sear is more fixing the common “the outside looked good but the inside is raw” problem if you don’t have a lot of steak experience.

I think if you were going to crust up a sous vide steak on a charcoal grill you’d probably want to cook it at 115-125 as well.
This has the same limitations of every other 3rd party iMessage client. It needs a companion app running on a Mac so that it can interface with iMessage running on that Mac. Basically it’s an iMessage proxy/client.

I have radiant floor heating, and setting the thermostat to my target temperature 3 hours before wake-up is fine.

But note that the OP has not just radiant floors, but also a heat pump (which isn’t using gas, so we’re far afield from the overall question, but setting that aside).

Heat pump systems are generally sized so that compressor’s sweet spot is pretty close to your expected normal/max output.

To be honest, this is more about the lifespan of the compressor than it is energy efficiency, but there is also a small loss of efficiency if you get the system into a state where it’s turning on/off frequently.

So it seems plausible and sensible that a radiant-heat pump system would recommend circulating 24/7 in the winter rather than cycling on/off a lot.

Yes but only when you're programming in Lisp (which can obviously be extremely useful and productive).

I want to get to this on the blog, but the narrow waist idea is actually hierarchical, with bytes at "level 0", and things like s-exprs and JSON at "level 1".

Building up this claim, I'd say ALL good languages are defined by their core data structures. See my comment (oilshell) here:

https://old.reddit.com/r/ProgrammingLanguages/comments/lliyu...

e.g. Lisp is defined by s-exprs, C by pointers and offsets, shell and Tcl by strings, etc.

The lowest common denominator between all these "meta-models" languages is BYTES. S-expressions are expressed as bytes. In Python and JavaScript, you serialize to JSON, etc.

----

To support this point, I have a slogan that "XML was a failed narrow waist". It was designed for documents, but people tried to express everything in it -- records, tables, and even programs.

But that was a bad idea! JSON took over some of that space since it's simply more appropriate. But JSON isn't good enough for documents, so we use HTML. Which means the lowest common denominator is again text.

(That discussion appears here: https://github.com/oilshell/oil/wiki/Perlis-Thompson-Princip...)
I wasn't trying to explain the actual political situation. I don't know what "deal" they took exactly. It's just really easy for any side, including the actual Russian individual taking orders, to delude themselves about the enemy and who is really to blame. For example, it doesn't take much for an American soldier to waltz into the Middle East and purport to be focused on building schools, and they even demand respect from much of the populace while doing it.

That being said, the underlying viewpoint behind the convenient justification is not that controversial on its own because the West was trying to win over Ukraine through various means. This is seen as something akin to nation-building even by some American academics.
Could simply be, "If I must go to hell, I take everyone with me".
Start by saying that i have a lot of IKEA stuff in my home: glasses, towels, plates, lamps.

But IKEA has had a devastating effect in two ways:

1. Wherever they’ve established themselves, they’ve devastated the ‘middle’ ground of quality-made furniture. In England before IKEA there used to be an immense choice of sofa and furniture makers, many of them producing really well-designed and reasonably priced items, like HABITAT for instance (which significantly was bought by IKEA sometime in the 90s). The large number of choices like this, but even other smaller-scale designers get wiped-out by IKEA’s steamroller.

2. The other problem has always been the way IKEA will copy a design from a smaller designer, and wipe them out that way. These days they’re a bit smarter about doing this, and instead of copying designs and getting the internet backlash they’d suffer nowadays, they partner with cool designers (like Danish Hay) and get ‘cred’ instead.

So even though we probably save some money in the short term, we’ve lost a flourishing landscape of smaller and more diverse, and more local alternatives.

Very true. Wouldn’t need a pacifier in the first place then!
You seem to fail to see, that the so-called "NATO expansion towards East" is independent, democratic countries, voluntarily joining a defence-alliance.

To large parts of Eastern/Northern Europe, it is either be part of a pretty good (but admittedly imperfect) NATO defence alliance - or have your sovereignty threatened by Russia.

You seriously think the Baltic states would be independent today, if they had not gained NATO membership?
My comment is not misleading.

> "Clearly they are reconsidering what they said."

I don't think that is the case. The short answer is, here's a link to a more detailed version of the article above - their recent change is calling it a "war", which allows them to trigger Montreux:

https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/turkey-implement-i...

Quote from the article

"Yet Cavusoglu (Turkey Foreign Minister) reiterated that Turkey cannot block all Russian warships accessing the Black Sea due to a clause in the pact exempting those returning to their registered base."

The long answer is, if you have been following European and Turkish politics in the last few years, you would see that Turkey is getting closer and closer to Russia (the F-35 debacle, getting S400 missile batteries, Turkstream etc). Turkey is also smart enough to play both sides. So, this move (to do nothing) is expected.
I believe currently only one of these banks can enable you to get your money out of Russia — thus the difference.
I started mining Bitcoin before video card mining was a thing, and I thought it was a bad idea back then.

It’s isn’t about making money, it’s a question of what Bitcoin is and how it works.
Makes me think they're actually being truthful when claiming they've killed 1000s of Russian soldiers. If Red Cross accepted but the numbers they reported are far lower, it wouldn't be good for Ukraine

...are you a parent? Apparently not!

Two parents can give a child their full attention, but infants can be fickle, picky creatures. I've been stuck in quite a few situations where the pacifier got driven off in Mom's car and the backup isn't in my bag - stranded away from supply lines without the required materiel. My son would only pull on his thumb or mine for a couple seconds before wailing...and, yes, trying again, but it was a pretty short attempt and a high duty cycle on the crying.

You do parents a disservice and assume the worst, probably based on a few narcissistic jerks, sure, but if there was anything I or many other parents could do for their kids we would do it. If I could have made my son comfortable in those situations I would have.

Sometimes they don't want Mom and they don't want Dad, they don't have to poop and they don't want to sleep, they don't want to play, they don't want to eat, they don't want to bounce, they don't want to sing....they want their pacifier. Nothing else will do. Not even Grandma...
Again, nobody cares. This is not the moment for such a mundane issue.

Fact check: 5 fakes of the war in Ukraine
Sorry, I perhaps didn't indicate clearly enough that it was a wild guess. I know raw material extraction is a major part of the economy in the corner of the state where my family lives, but I have no idea of actual numbers.

I was also not trying to suggest that it's "export focused" - that would imply that that's a dominant factor in the economy, which is not what I intended to say. I chose the word "large", not to imply that it's a majority, but to imply there's enough money tied to it to make it politically interesting to the elected officials who are driving these sorts of decisions. See, for example, how coal played into the 2016 US elections, despite the US economy not being anything close to "coal focused".

The statements of some experts such as “The Russian army will defeat most of the units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in 30-40 minutes”, “Russia is able to defeat Ukraine in 10 minutes in the event of a full-scale war”, “Russia will defeat Ukraine in eight minutes” have no serious grounds.

I find it way more plausible that he just believes that Ukraine is a birthplace of Russia of mythical and religious significance and Ukrainians are not a separate nation.

It explains way better why he decided wage war that will be devastating to Rusian economy that wasn't doing so well already.

This and access to Ukraine resources because resources is what Russia earns their money from.

That's why he believes sanctions won't be such a big deal in the long run. He thinks Ukraine resources will balance out costs of war.

Talking about NATO agression on Russia is pure and simple propaganda. NATO is a defensive alliance and there's no way USA or anyone could convince other members to invade Russia in peace time.
