You're being disingenuous. Look at the articles mentioned in the quote.

"Taiwan Relations Act, the three U.S.-China Joint Communiques, and the Six Assurances". In particular: "The United States would not formally recognize Chinese sovereignty over Taiwan"[1].

So the US supports a "One China policy", "does not support Taiwanese independence" and "does not formally recognize Chinese sovereignty over Taiwan." And it will supply Taiwan with weapons to defend itself, giving defacto independence. And, as you quote, the US opposed any unilateral changes to the status quo.

Confusing? Yes. Yet you're misleading people with your post, frankly speaking, if you telling people to "Just read the defence department's website".

Morally, China is trying to remove Taiwan's defacto independence, for reasons that completely ignore any idea of self-determination, whereas the US is supplying Taiwan with the weapons to choose.

There's nothing stopping Taiwan's democratic government and its people from choosing to give China control, since there are pro PRC parties in Taiwan, and even so--they have decided to resist PRC control.

You can, of course, argue the US should not give Taiwan the right of self-determination, that it should stay out of the affairs of other countries, since there are obviously economic reasons in addition to moral; but nonetheless issues of self-determination are at the heart--since the people and their well-being are always at the heart.

Right, where my wife grew up she could just walk out the front door and go like a block or two, and there'd be fresh everything - produce, baked goods, whatever. That doesn't exist for a lot of people in the US.
Does this analysis assume rent stays the same? I can't see its assumptions for rent prices changing.

Because I calculate my mortgage as being worthwhile by comparing what I pay monthly in interest vs. what I would've paid in rent. Interest payments go down, rent goes up. It's an easy comparison to make - ignoring any capital changes, which is just free money.

This is one of the worst takes I've seen in this thread.

NAT is only kind of a firewall and there have been plenty of terrible router firmwares out there that have lead people to subvert it (UPNP being one of the most problematic).

If you in your other thread don't trust the ISP device, then don't trust NAT on your ISP device either. Quite often the ISP can have their modem route traffic from their internal 10 net to your internal network if they so choose to.

Instead IPv4, or IPv6 setup to drop NEW/SYN connections to your devices via a router that you provide.

In France we have a state backed association which gets money from taxes then builds new buildings in prioritary zones so that not so rich not so poor people can still afford proper renting inside big cities. Thats why I can rent 126m2 for 1900€ a month which is cheap. counterpart: I live in a « shitty neighbour » but it ends up multicultural and i feel safe, my wife ultra close to her job. I think the state needs to enforce building construction/rénovation. same for buying, in france i can get VAT 5.5 instead of 20 in prioraty zone and also 100k free mortgage. all combined i did buy @4500€ per m2 in close suburb instead of 10k. priority zone ? well then they juste build a brand new school with a small forest on top of it. in this case i agree. paying taxes ( prices are for Paris, i have no clue how it works in USA)
Do you really believe this report?

"Twitter sales and marketing staff were told by their colleagues that Amazon had threatened to withhold payment for advertising it runs on Twitter". My experience with sales and marketing staff at virtually every company I've ever worked is that they are morons.

I simply don't believe that AWS would allow this to continue without shutting them down. There's no way a contract allows for them to rack up bills like this.

It's fairly limited, without a lot of time and effort, or information from inside the network. I assume you're not acting as an AS, doing BGP, etc; and that you're just getting an IP allocation from a single ISP. In that case, you're probably getting an entire IPv6 subnet (like a /48) allocated to you. Ideally, you make the entire subnet available to your systems.

Assuming you block unsolicited packets (that is, packets not related to existing connections/streams) at your border (the connection to your ISP), then outsiders won't be able to use tools like traceroute to learn anything. All that an outsider has is an IPv6 IP, and since you're not doing BGP with anything, all they'll know to do is to send the traffic to your ISP.
Why? Do you believe the same is true for other occupations as well? So does a doctor just care how many prescriptions they make, or a police person about how many people they arrest? Have you considered that people aspire to other goals except money, despite they being paid for it?

Most of Cornell's books cost between $5 and, say, $200. They represent between less than an hour and a day's labour.

Thinking about schools, the workplace, the economic systems we live under, and how many things constantly require action from our brains (vs. free space to imagine), the former three all frequently punishing significant deviation from a given norm, this isn't entirely surprising.

>>> ...the article doesn’t mention just how incredibly vulnerable China is to possible sanctions targeting their food supply. China imports most of its food and as their farmland is quite poor, its hugely dependent on fertiliser to feed itself. Sanctions targeting these basics would be devastating...

>> Also they import about 90% of their oil.

> They probably assumed that sanctions would not be all that severe, given their pivotal position in the world economy. Perhaps they'll reconsider after seeing the level of sanctions against Russia.

Why? Russia has successfully bypassed most of those sanctions. There have been many articles about that.

Sanctions like that will only work if the entire rest of the world lines up behind what leading western nations want, and the Ukraine war show that probably won't happen.

Russia's big exports also happen to be food and oil...

I get why, as the organizing of the work is a critical task for any of that to happen. This is no small task to be fair, as you may notice in how few community gardens exist. Employees also get enormous risk reduction.

But in most of the work world, I get the same pay whether the crops I grow are bountiful and valuable or scarce and full of worms. I certainly don't get more converting a wormy field into a bountiful one.

So I just won't.

How can a company be as bad as EA at managing computer game production? It’s absolutely mind blowing. You think they’d have learned by now, but this story has been repeated for the decade since Sim City. As an EA shareholder I’d be absolutely fuming if some EA exec believed that shipping an unfinished game on an arbitrary deadline would be more important than shipping a good game.

Maybe that is what Fly had in mind: That some company like Upstash would bring "managed" serverless Postgres to their platform.

Unless somebody natively implements clustering in Postgres I don't see that happening anytime soon, all existing tools require way too many moving parts.

I don't know why they'd even want Postgres for the type of service they are offering, KV or maybe SQLite seem like a better fit.
My wife is from Taiwan, and what you wrote is a warped understanding of how things were 40 years ago.

The official position of all Taiwanese parties is that Taiwan and China are one nation divided by temporary difficulties, because China has threatened war if they say anything else.

The inofficial position of the DPP (current government party) is that of fucking course Taiwan is de facto a separate sovereign country, and we like it that way, so let's not do anything to risk it.

The inofficial position of the KMT is that they are in the pocket of the CCP, and a big fan of every possible concession that won't scare their voters too much.

EA is supposed to be pretty happy with its SimCity BuildIt as it is a new way of generating lots of revenue through micro-transactions and makes the balance sheets look better. Meanwhile, players are pretty happy with Paradox's real passion about how to build a better city simulation game. For what it is worth, it is a win-win-win for EA, players, and Paradox Interactive.
There was a brief period in the aughts when Pidgin and libpurple covered almost all messaging platforms in a single application. AIM, ICQ, MSN Messenger, Jabber, IRC, you name it. You could even layer on encryption with the OTR plugin, message logging, automation and countless other plugins.

At the time I took this for granted and didn't appreciate just how wonderful it was.

From the perspective of the Taiwanese state, survival is the primary objective. In this case it is best to prolong the status quo where Taiwan is a political Rorschach test, obtaining the appearance of whatever you want depending on who looks. This satisfies the demands of Cross-Strait relations, internal politics, and the relationship with United States and other allies. Obtaining nuclear weapons or declaring independence makes no sense then because it jeopardizes national security, despite “making sense.” National security and sociopolitical logic are often at odds, by no means uniquely in Taiwan.
> The reactions all missed the underlying shift behind the move: Social media feeds, once filled with content from ordinary users, are now programmed primarily by professional creators.

Ugh, this is the worst thing about social media in my opinion these days. It's why I really, really like RSS feeds of blog posts:

1. Everything is still chronological

2. If someone went to the trouble to post to their blog, they'll put more thought into it than if they were just cussing out their most hated politician on twitter

3. The blogging space is still relatively independent of the content mill.

I do miss my feedly account though, simply because it makes it easier to find these feeds so they don't go stale.

The west has its own problems, but today's China is not yesteryear's China. China is doing and has done plenty of things in other countries. They are installing mass surveillance systems in Africa, building out African infrastructure as a sort of diplomatic capture by dept, literally stealing land from Nepal and others by building Chinese centers for villages on the edge but making sure they annex bits of land each time, literally stealing land (in the most literal sense possible) by digging up sand in Taiwanese islands, harassing Japanese islands, stealing other countries' fish such as in South American waters, stealing the worlds' intellectual property, literally cutting Vietnam's internet off, etc. They are not the "ah shucks, we stick to our borders" country they say they are.

So by your definition, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Coumbia, U Penn, Brown, Dartmouth, Oxford, Paris, Liepzig, Bordeau, Glascow, Istanbul, Granada, Strassburg, Moscow, Berlin Technical, Freiberg Technical, Cambridge, practically every major Italian university, and hundreds of others aren't universities?

Just because Harvard had a religious school didn't mean it was as religious school.

Since 1088, when Bologna coined the term to describe its new institution, a university has been (1) an institution of higher education which (2) offers multiple official, publicly recognized diplomas in secular subjects among others. You can redefine it as you like but I think about 250 schools would have words with you.
The more usual reason why devices would be making an IPv4 request despite having an IPv6-supporting connection is precisely because the server doesn't support IPv6 - either the network it's on doesn't support it, or it's not configured for it, or more rarely the software on the other end doesn't have IPv6 support. The request can't just be translated into an IPv6 one because there's no way of knowing that the server even understands that, let alone what its associated IPv6 address is.

> But let's be honest, you didn't actually care about that. You just hate large vehicles and you believe you should be able to control the decisions other people make. That is a bad impulse and the government should not enable it.

There's no reason to be like this. The parent is just pointing out an external cost of driving larger vehicles and suggesting a mechanism to pass on some of the cost to the owner. They did not suggest that a Camry should somehow be exempt from this same requirement.

For what it's worth I drive a large vehicle. In my country I do pay a larger registration tax for the priviledge to drive it, and I was also required to prove that I had a place to park it when I bought it (street parking isn't really a thing here). This doesn't bother me in the least, because I recognize that there are real social costs associated with driving a larger vehicle, and I am happy to pay my fair share.

If I open my PSP (Playstation Portable) from 2005 it will still work as well as in the first day, all the games work the same and the boot time and interface are faster than most consoles nowadays. Why does it still work? Because it once worked and nothing changed.
