I was of the believe that Ukraine did not explode that bridge yet because they would not benefit from it. My thinking went as follows: A.) breaking it would make the land bridge they are fighting the Russians for much more valuable, therefore the Russians would invest more resources to doing so, B.) Breaking it might cut off the escape route for Crimean civilians and therefore turn them against the Ukrainians. C.) The bridge was expensive and in some far future they would probably like to make use of it themselves.

Of course that bridge is in a sense both military and civilian infrastructure, so it might just be, that we reached a moment where the points mentioned above no longer outweighed the military/logistcal disadvantage the Ukrainians gained from letting it unharmed.

Of course another possibility would be that they just were not able to attack it successfully before and this was the first attempt that worked. In that case however we might have noticed some of the bodged attempts.

I disagree, productivity by itself doesn't imply growth. For me "slowdown in productivity" unambiguously means a decline. You also don't write "slowdown of the vehicle speed" when you mean a decrease in acceleration.

Russia has leveled many areas held by Ukraine. But as things have progressed, the west has been giving Ukraine a ton of support, including anti-missile defense systems. The war has also demonstrated quite clearly that Russia's military might was overblown, and they've actually been severely undermined by decades of corruption.

The situation has changed. With the North route cut, moving an hypothetical tactical nuclear bomb to Crimea or refresh troops is now much more difficult and dangerous. Supporting logistically the current Crimean troops with food or winter clothes is also much more expensive now
According to its inventor, Scrum™ was created to manage a team of dysfunctional COBOL programmers at a bank[1], not to find a Product/Market Fit (PM/F).

Instead of using an SDLC methodology here, use one of the relevant product frameworks for that, but needless to say, there is a large element of luck here, as finding a PM/F isn't guaranteed.

Usually you use low-tech SDLCs like Scrum/SAFe at the places that already have found PM/F, or those relying on violence (aka "taxation") as their main business model (e.g. military/government/public sector).

The only PM/F Scrum Inc found is how to make bazillions from useless certifications and training.

Two friends are passing through Vegas and need to stay overnight in a hotel.

At evening, one friend is tired and goes sleep, the other one has 100$ bill in the pocket and wants to try his luck.

He goes to a casino and puts 100$ on red and wins 1,000$.
He then puts these 1,000$ on red and wins 100,000$.
He puts again on red and wins 1,000,000$.
Lastly, he puts all on red and loses all.

Later, when he is back to his hotel room, his other friend asks: "how was at the casino?"

To that he replies: "Oh, I just lost 100$".

We’re confusing “intellectual” with “media”. That ship sailed long ago. Coordinated media narratives are probably the most banal, boring, ham-handed and anti-intellectual sources of thought in this country. Periodically they’re all pulling in the same direction without a critical contrary thought. It doesn’t prove the opposite but at the very least it’s a tell to be extra skeptical of the narrative you’re getting fed.
It still talks about productivity slowdown afterwards, in overall repeatedly, while in fact the productivity increases 1.27% in the worst period analyzed.
Interesting, wasn't this possible before in the states? In Sweden we've been able to access our medical journal for years, not really sure of when it first arrived.
I think some alternative hypotheses should be considered:

1. Workplace culture has changed drastically over the last 20 years, at least in Sweden. Comparing the work ethic of my parents generation to that of millennials is… like comparing night and day.

2. We’ve been living in a radical monetary policy experiment for the last 20 years, with zero (or even negative) interest rates and quantitative easing. It should also be noted that the previous change in productivity growth rate (in the 80-ties) coincided with a dramatic change in monetary policy.
Like acceleration of population growth peaked in 1968.

Very relevant if you want to predict the future.
It's still more unique than anything before as long as the number of buckets is larger than the number of available TV channels was a few decades ago or the number of available newspapers was a century ago.

Also, one point is that those algorithms operate on global scale. Even if there are a million other people who are in the same bucket as you are, they mostly don't live in your close proximity and you might never meet any of them in person. It's no wonder we feel isolated and lonely.

So much so it creeps into real life for me from time to time.

About 10 years ago working in the Comerica building in downtown Dallas (you can see it in the skyline photos) I parked in a garage connected by hallways and tunnels to stay out of the heat or rain. There were two sets of escalators in this route. One set broke. Management put up a sign on a stand stating “Escalator out of service” and within about a week somebody opened Word or PowerPoint set it to landscape, printed out “Escalator temporarily stairs, sorry for the convenience” on a piece of paper and taped it over their sign.

I’m sure I snapped a picture of it for the week or so it was left up.

Right, and we saw some examples of Sqlite+torrent in the past; those databases could be made editable more easily (although it would be nice to de-duplicate unchanged parts, not sure if sqlite DBs can be chunked).

As the sibling comment points out, Russia has been leveling many areas with rockets and artillery. But those are not infinite, and stocks need replenishing, which Russia is incapable of doing. Which is why we've seen them going into the reserves with obsolete Tochka missile systems, and buying artillery ammunition from North Korea.

TL;DR: They tried, but they have more targets than ammunition, so failed.

Noone will share an algorithm that can consistently and predictably beat the market online. Ever. It would be stupid, because the moment it goes out it destroys its own possibilities for excess returns. And if an algorithm doesn't outperform the market, you're automatically better off just buying and holding. 100% of these articles are useless if you want to be serious about investing. You might as well go and put all your money on a casino table.
And encyclopedias can easily not have your subject, be based on wrong information, and so on.

Teachers treated them like fact until high school, though: Only in my senior year (1995-1996) were we told that while we could get basic information from an encyclopedia - to help us search for information - we couldn't use the encyclopedia itself as a source of information.

I don't understand why folks aren't treating wikipedia the same way. In general, a wikipedia article is going to give a fairly good faith overview of a subject. There are going to be more subjects than could fit in an encyclopedia. Many articles will be more in-depth and a good number have references: In other words, you can go off and read the source material if you want and use that for more information.

> Of course another possibility would be that they just were not able to attack it successfully

That was the official version of the Ukrainian side.

> A.) breaking it would make the land bridge they are fighting the Russians for much more valuable, therefore the Russians would invest more resources to doing so,

But it would make those Russians fighting there a nightmare to supply (and as we've seen, Russia logistics suck even without obstacles such as a big bodies of water), which will weaken their resistance.

> B.) Breaking it might cut off the escape route for Crimean civilians and therefore turn them against the Ukrainians.

Many already run away when Ukraine started hitting targets in Crimea, so it's safe to assume the rest don't want to evacuate.

> C.) The bridge was expensive and in some far future they would probably like to make use of it themselves.

Ukraine won't have a need for a Crimea - Russia land bridge in the foreseeable future, considering how long it will take for relations to be fully repaired.
The M1 was released in 2020 and AMD and Intel are still unable to compete in performance per watt. I can't believe that Intel and AMD have their current market cap. Investors should know by now that they make gasoline cars and Apple makes EV's. They are that far ahead.
Rockets alone don't get you (and even less hold) territory for you.

If you wanna use rockets effectively you need damn good intelligence (potential targets) and the ability to hit them (accuracy). And there is evidence the Russians are lacking both to a certain degree.

When you imagine two rocket systems that are pointed at each other there are multiple factors deciding which side wins. Accuracy and range being two of them.

The western HIMARS rocket system used by the Ukrainians is far more accurate than everything Russia has (in sufficient numbers) and the range is (afaik) better than the artillery range of the russian side. Which means the Ukraine can hit them, before they can hit the highly mobile HIMARS (which might already be at a different place once they fired their payload).

That being said one of the major factors in this war has always been that one side is defending. That means Ukrainians have better morale and better intelligence, because the people living in these regions might still supply them with information about Russian troups.

That doesn't make sense to me. Apple was starting from scratch (well, from PA Semi, which made Power not ARM), but Intel and AMD have been designing high-performance CPUs for decades, and already changed architecture (to AMD64) successfully. On top of that, both have experience with ARM processors.

Don't get your hopes up as to how useful this is. In Australia we have had federal government digital health record capability for something like 5 years now. There was all sorts of moral panic about issues at the time it was mooted - around privacy and so on and was opt in. I saw it as a great idea, as I have chronic health issue and thought it as a useful journal for use by medicos in my ongoing care. However despite having GP (physician) visits and haemotologist visits multiple times a year, and blood tests and even surgical biopsy tests there are no records of these being added. I mention it to my doctors and the boxes are ticked as far as I know on forms. The only things that make it to my record are simple scripted medicines (presumably because they have government reimbursement, through the PBS) and immunisation records such as for COVID and flu. Certainly no effort has been made to scan or digitise any CT records and similar imaging from before the health records system was brought in. So it all seems a bit of a boondoggle and waste of resources.
Russia is running out of precision guided munition. They can level things but can they actually hit the targets they need to hit?
> RMS created the free software movement

Both are not true. People shared software based on the same ideas for many years before RMS.

Not to mention that the whole scientific world has been sharing knowledge while also respecting authorship and providing citations in ways very similar to FOSS for a century.
I think a consistent criticism has been of their idleness in response to the inflationary threat and not taking it seriously enough, soon enough. It didn’t take fortune tellers to see where things were headed in spring of ‘21 but we kept injecting cash and keeping the cost of cash near zero. Lots of excuses for why that is, but behind the eight ball is where they landed. Their considerations are as you describe but their concept of benefit includes the political, their finance industry customers, and many other conflicting interests. So harm:benefit, yes, but some people’s perceived benefits can certainly cause harm to the greater economy.

Open Source's goals are being achieved by Open Source. I think a lot of people need to admit that they don't agree with Free Software's values and goals, and they prefer Open Source because it's free shit that they can use at their job to look good, and why wouldn't you like that?

Free Software is about owning your machine. It's not about being allowed to be installed, or even being easy to install on machines you don't own. It's not about being higher quality. The Free alternative maybe worse, but no one can take it away from you, and it won't spy on you if you don't want it to.

It is not about having free high quality software for everyone to use. That is a lucky consequence of giving people control over their own devices and the things that run on them. Things that enter Free Software never die. They grow, stop growing, then later grow again. They only die if people find something else better, and they always have a chance of rising from the dead. They're public property. Open Source, which is wonderful once you turn it into Free Software, is not immortal. All you have to do is embrace it, extend it, then kill interop, and it is gone.

edit: Open Source starts off as dead code. I can take it, extend it, and obfuscate it tomorrow, and it's mine. If I spend enough on marketing I can make the original look defective. I can make the Open Source version look dangerous and point out its bugs while hiding my own. I can make the vendors only accept the version signed with my key to provide something we decided to call "end-to-end verification."

Doesn't work with GPL software. They have to write their own.
