Most are relatively small in number of active population revolting, while when hunger bite all have very little to loose so while perhaps not united they all unrest.

As you rightly say society is complex, so we can't just simplify to us vs the enemy, not matter what, but humans needs are not that complex and human psychology is still essentially the same in millennia. The ancient "panem et circense" is still valid, just to cite one famous governing model still used today. The social ignorance and complexity is used by those who rule to grab and stay in power, but again with not really different principles than 1000 years ago, just means/tech/scale is changed.

Any dictatorship to remain in power need to satisfy enough his subjects and/or find enough justifications for those who aren't satisfied, that's why most dictatorship grow fast, giving back an apparent good/fast evolution then when resources start to be scarce they push toward war/blame opponent etc and again that's might last or not but in the end they fall. A new society rise on the ruins of the precedent. We are probably around one of those changes were wars can't work anymore alone. At those points populations rise, no matter how much united, they rise ad a big destructive force no one can resist.

I think for defensive puzzles to really work better, the principle of what's counted as the right answer would have to be flipped on its head. Often in defensive situations there's one move that will end you up in trouble and a whole bunch of moves that will more or less avoid it. Picking what's the absolute best way to avoid the problem can be really hard, whereas just picking one of them is more straightforward. When it comes to attacking, there's usually only one way to get into the winning line, unless you're in an amazing position to begin with.
33 bits. That's how many bits of information it takes to identify you out of anyone on the planet, more or less. If your hometown contains about 100,000, for instance, knowing it would count as about 16 bits worth of info toward that 33 bits.

Sorry, I didn't mean brute force as in DDOS, but as in brute forcing passwords. Particularly if you run it for your family, you are at the mercy of one having a weak password, and as soon as a bot has access to one of your mail accounts, it will send spam and you can kiss goodbye your IP/domain reputation.

Agreed with the article. Also I was slightly disappointed with my cat when I thought her to look into inside the house and meow at something for months as speaking to something that I can't see, only to realize that she was seeing reflection of some birds on a light pole and was talking to them, thinking that they are inside the house.

You may be right about this. In some cases to turn an attack puzzle into a defense puzzle, I think it would be sufficient to use the same problem, but one turn earlier and switching sides. Then it may be possible to prevent the attack and the challenge becomes to spot and prevent it.

I find it ironic that the very people who dismiss everything they cannot comprehend as “conspiracy theory”, because it does not fit their conditioned frame of mind; are not all that different than the other end of the spectrum that is convinced everything is fake.

It’s similar to how people dismiss that TV (among other things) can be used to brainwash/condition/ manipulate people, while being totally blind to one of the biggest industries in all of humanity exists on that very premise … advertising.
This works like a charm. Thank you for sharing it.
> Because a popular revolution shouldn't be labelled a "US-backed coup"

What do you suggest we label a situation where the US government officials get in touch with people opposing the regime in a foreign country, in protests (that turned violent) and talk to their leaders, designating one of them to lead the future government and vetoing some of them from joining that future government?

(Note that the leaked Pyatt-Nuland call is from before Feb 5th. They apparently talked to Yatsenyuk to lead the future gov't, and they are discussing that Klitchko and Tyahnibok stay out while supporting it. On Feb 27th the new gov't is sworn in, lead by Yatsenyuk, with Klitchko and Tyahnibok on the outside.)

On similar note, what would you call a situation where Russian gov't would get in touch with people opposing the ruling US order and organize a regime change in US? "Popular Revolution" or "Russia-instilled coup"?

Correct, what you stumbled upon is merely the modern version of exorbitant privilege and US dollar international seigniorage and then you have the cantillon effect at the international level, but that's just less of an issue than the dollar seigniorage itself

Back in the day (~1930), my grandparents had a "semi-pet" rat terrier (a small working dog), and kept a fair number of animals (chickens, a few pigs, cow, etc.). When the rat terrier was feeling ignored/unloved, it would head back to the barn and start hunting rats. Lots of rats. Which were all brought back up to the house (dead), and lined up on the little walk to the kitchen door - for grandma to notice, and happily fuss over the dog for having killed.

When the dog was not feeling insecure/unappreciated, it didn't seem all that interested in hunting rats.

For those who didn't know, like me. I wish acronyms were less used or at least described when introduced. Like Elon Musk once said:

One of lichess's criteria for a puzzle is that there must be only one winning move (with an exception for checkmates in 1).

This makes it much easier to select for not terrible puzzles with an algorithm, and to have a good UI for puzzle solving, but it filters out many defensive puzzles both because it excludes positions where there are multiple defenses, and it excludes positions where you just manage to not lose without turning the position into a clearly winning one.
Zudoku: Zero-Knowledge Proof System for Sudoku
Yes, you can. You can't move the menu bar at the top, but the dock can go to any of the other three edges of the display, and its popout items work just fine.
Or even worse, I'd like to at least see the buttons get jumbled up, and the dog realise it's wrong and find the new location of what it wants to say.

And then it would still suffer from potential human over-interpretation, finding meaning where there isn't, as described in the Koko video you linked.
I agree 100%. Hence why I like side projects. Even if they aren’t that successful, you have an extremely short feedback loop of 1) customers paying you, and 2) customers giving feedback directly to you.
Usually puzzles start from a position where one side has a clear advantage and a single good move. It depends on your puzzle rating, but many puzzles include an important defensive component (e.g. preventing the opponent from mating you while you keep the advantage). However in low puzzle ratings I believe it's more mate-in-X, material grabs, and other simple attacks.

You can also use the defensive theme on Lichess: https://lichess.org/training/defensiveMove

It's certainly got some animated detractors.

Notice though, that a lot of "orthodox" economsists tend to accuse mmt of being both crackpot and trivial. The trivial shot implies that it's trivially derrivate of Keynes.

I'm not sure where mmt begins and ends. Currently, a lot of mmt is associated with guaranteed jobs ideas. I don't like that policy idea at all.

That's why I caveat with "mmt's description of fiat money." Their description of central banking is far superior to monetarism and other "orthodox" theories of the past few decades. It's simpler, less abstract, more universal and more parsimonious with major, observable reality in more places.

By comparison, all neokeynesian models if central banking are cludgey minstrosisies.

It's worth being skeptical, and a lot of the Instagram/YouTube animals that "speak" clearly do nowhere as well as their owners suggest.

But look at more of Bunny's videos. Some of the interpretations are fanciful (a pet peeve of mine is the "love you" interactions where there's little reason to think the "love you" means more than "I want attention"), but there are enough of fairly complex interactions that I think it's unreasonable to dismiss it entirely.

“have you been to the US and/or UK? what do you make of the capitalist owned and capitalist controlled media?”

I'm thinking something like this: Evaluation of the position is even. All moves except one lead to high centipawn loss. Some of the moves look solid when evaluated superficially (too simplistic evaluation heuristics / not thinking enough ply ahead).

"These loans are given by parties that are not able, officially, to print dollars but, at the same time, 'print' by loaning them - or rather the promise to pay, in dollars mostly, some sum that the loaner has fractionally. That is, they don't own as many dollars as they're loaning. It's just entries in a database."

Which is the exact way that Federal reserve creates dollars.

Just that, in this instance, the creator is different. It makes no difference to the US government, though.USD is USD.
In fact, this only benefits the US.
I have three children - all now adults with successful careers.

The oldest was a voracious reader from very early on. Headstrong and made lots of mistakes but is now a successful ice cream entrepreneur.

Middle child was/is mathematically gifted. Kept him in sports - hockey, soccer, track, snowboarding - to balance the intellectual and keep him from getting bored. He's now a developer at a startup.

My youngest turned out to be the weakest intellectually. Always struggled with school. But she worked hard (unlike the other two) and was always creative. She is now a UX designer at a big consulting firm and will probably do the best of all three because she learned how to work hard and has a flare for design that resonates.

You can never tell what path they will take, so just encourage them whenever they show interest in something - even if it's not what you're into.

On Feb 21st 2014, the EU foreign ministers and Yanukovich signed on a deal where there would be speedy elections — that would most certainly remove Yanukovich from power, somewhere in spring.

But on Feb 22nd, the protesters refuse that deal and seize Yanukovich's palace, stripping him of power immediately. After which he flees.

It's that seizing of the palace and rejecting the EU-brokered deal is what is usually called "the coup".

Has anyone defined or experienced a good workflow and process for multi-user, selective access/partitioned org-roam notes?

Imagine I’m on a team of five and each of us have information that we consider public, private, company, and company/private. The last two being info that should stay with the company and not with me when I leave, and information that should stay with the company and with me when I leave (perhaps research or best practices we adopted in our use of language Foo or technology Bar [“how we integrate CUDA” or “rules for smooth DB migrations”], where it’s not company proprietary but the company should have continued access.)

I can easily see how I could use org to organize my own information, but if I use it to create a silo of information that only I can access and that, from the company perspective, dies with me when I resign, that feels selfishly sub-optimal.

(Perhaps “public” and “company/private” are the same category in effect, but user1’s private and user2’s private are definitely different. I’d be willing to take any reasonable restriction such as segregation must be on a per-file basis.)
As someone with a private teaching background (>100 pupils, mostly 1to1) I have always wondered about that. There are huge individual differences. It never ceases to amaze me.

My pragmatic advice (without going into my theories): just observe yourself throughout your activities, take daily notes. If you don't like to write essay-like diary entries just reduce it to an organized excel spreadsheet e.g. specific activity, time spent, rating system (long-term/short-term satisfaction, hard/easy ...), misc: (interesting) things you observed about yourself; you get the idea.

In most cases it really helps to clear up some confusion and misconceptions you have about yourself. "Fun", "Happiness", "Flow" etc. is a spontaneous state dependent on a plethora of things working in sync nobody can teach you directly because in the end you are the driver balancing all those things. Once you get a better sense what versions of "fun" you enjoy, observe and ask others: How do they go about this? What is fun for them? Maybe you find some interesting strategy you can apply or get an appreciation on how individuals can vastly differ from you.

Second: at one place we used to do code reviews side by side on a single screen, and I have seen junior engineers make tremendous progress. Nowadays with remote work it can be hard to meet people. But the thing remains: mammals learn by copying, and learn best in a 1:1 setup. You got that remark you should not ask basic questions anymore, but this is actually a statement that your enrollment in the team did not go as planned. Based on that shared understanding you should feel entitled to ask basic questions. Now is the time to catch up. Go and see people with your laptop or ask them politely to come over to your desk. With instant messaging, ask them when they have time for you and share your screen! Do not let them share their screen for the reason below.

Third: of course you should take notes. Copy paste every command line you got from a senior in a notebook, every tip. I switched jobs quite often and can tell you this is vital, no less. It is disheartening to give a great tip to a junior and not seeing him/her take note of it :)
