As Classic Novels Get Revised, a Debate About Where to Draw the Line
I mostly agree with you regarding whack-a-mole. Indeed you have to be expert already in order to use it, due to the need to verify.

But super interesting idea about the design patterns. I hope it goes the other way around, in the sense that it learns the good code only, and since we use it often, it generates optimized code for being read and understood. Like you mention! So all future code will be delightful and pleasure to read ^^
Also a similar theme is in Darren Aronofsky's Pi: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0138704/
Article 5 says it will be considered an attack against "them all", not against the US. In reality this is very convenient for US. What ukraine is suffering now is what would happen if russia invaded finland: the US would provide endless material support and the threat of nukes, but the vast majority of damage and losses would be Finnish. NATO acts as a shield for the US in Europe, keeping the wars away from the Americas. That's how it has been designed to be from the beginning

For clarity, I'm saying they're unlikely to turn into genuine friends of the US and US foreign policy. Wasn't talking about relations between China and Saudi. Ukraine hasn't really changed anything in that calculus.

Yes. This is good for the US. Russia has already chosen to be an anti-US adversary. A unified response to Russia is more efficient and more effective.

As a Ukrainian immigrant living in the US the current situation in Ukraine is infuriating. I left Ukraine when I was a teenager nearly a quarter of a century ago and it was obvious to me then that sooner or later Russia would want its breadbasket back and an invasion would happen. How was this not clear to those in power? Zelinsky started the process of trying to get the country’s ducks in a row to be able to join NATO and I was happy about that, but it was obviously a little too obvious and a little too late. Russia in the early 2000s was in no shape to invade and that was the time to make this move. But corruption and every level of the government prevented it and gave Russia multiple openings to fuck with Ukraine, from installing pro-Russian presidents, to squeezing Ukraine with gas prices, to eventually annexing Crimea with little to no consequences.

How many lives would have not been completely destroyed had the powers that be 15-20 years ago gotten their act together?

I should say that IMO Zelinsky is doing as excellent a job as he possibly can with the situation now. The main issue is not joining NATO when it wouldn’t have resulted in war before the process can be completed. And maybe NATO needs a provisional membership process that allows a country to be temporarily considered an ally via a much quicker path so that while it gains full membership it cannot be invaded.

> I must invade a neighboring country to prevent having NATO on my doorstep

Even without involving Finland, it's worse than that. If he successfully invades and conquers Ukraine, he will certainly have NATO at his doorstep. I doubt this was his real reasoning.

Maybe the plan was to take only as much of Ukraine to show that he could, if he wanted to, take the whole. Effectively turning the Ukraine into a no-mans-land and maintaining the threat of "don't join NATO, or else..." And Finland doesn't have oil to profit from, so he likely had no plans of ever touching that wasp's nest.

I'm not a politician nor military strategist, but I prefer not underestimating powerful people when thinking about their strategies.

This is a very subjective view?!
The collective West had way more resolve to respond to the further Russian expansion westward during the Cold War, you can say they were fools risking the end of humanity and maybe so, but it worked better for the stability in Europe than current deference to Russian interest and Americans openly pondering why they need NATO, because woke something something. It is weak, perceived as weak, and acted upon.

As for Finland during the Cold War, not sure if it had a pathway to NATO, same as modern Ukraine, or if the USSR would give it time to develop a bomb. They treaded carefully and forfeited a great deal of their independence.
I am someone that also left GitHub. [1]

To the author, yes, it's worth it.

I didn't go to another service, though; I set up Gitea on my own server. Because of drama there, I'm going to have to replace Gitea as well.

But GitLab itself is going down the drain, I'm not welcome on SourceHut, and I haven't heard the best things about Codeberg. Also, git needs a replacement.

Very interesting. I remember reading (I think it was in the book Debt) about ancient Greece and its slaves, with lots of similar stories.

Apparently slaves there were not considered inferior, anyone could end up in that situation. For example, the often lauded Epictetus was a slave.

If Apple overpriced their gear as much as people complain then they wouldn't be one of the largest corporations on the planet. That doesn't mean it makes sense for you of course but I'm sure they spend a lot of time considering how they are going to price their products.
I recognise the bluster tactic and have seen it before, I'm surprised that Japan broke from the general resolve to not trade in oil with Russia and I'm wondering how much that is bargaining strategy also.

Japan is oil and resource poor and is looking to have a more stable energy future pushing for more "next gen" nuclear reactors, etc.

In the meantime they have high energy demands that need to be met somehow.
Right, but most arguments, including the one here, go something like "AI is a Stochastic Parrot so it's a lie and now I think it's bad and we shouldn't do it."

Which is a pretty dumb position imo. Not that I personally think these newer LLMs are a stochastic parrot, or at least not to the degree proponents of the Stochastic Parrot argument would have you believe.

An LLM like ChatGPT ends up with a bunch of probabilities for the next word-ish. A random number generator then picks from them, weighted by probability, and then the process loops. So while the weights are static, the actual execution is very much non-deterministic.
BE systems aren't a hypothetical future, they're here in the present, in production systems. Yes, they're not very common, but that only makes the edge-cases sharper.

The overengineering argument would make sense for a specific implementation, but not for the format as a whole, IMHO.
As long as China and Russia remain peaceful and don’t threaten their neighbors with aggression, they can absolutely win the war for hearts and minds and thus assemble a broad coalition to buck the US’s interests. The problem here is that Russia has already invaded its neighbors and proven to be a security risk for Europe, while China is doing everything it can to signal to its own population that war with Taiwan is imminent and to its neighbors that it’s a major threat. Maybe they’re all joking (well, except for Russia) but the very real security threat posed by China and Russia to their neighbors puts an upper “cap” on the effectiveness of a broad anti-US alliance. The backstop of US dominance isn’t feelings, it’s the global desire for survival.

It has everything to do with your comment? I'm inviting anybody interested on the topic to go read about it themselves instead of rehashing the same subject again and again, since I believe everything about this has already been said already?

Pandas 2.0.0 Release
I remember running Mac software on my A4000-040. It was smoother than on real 68k macs, likely due to the co-processors the Amiga had. I didn't use the emulator much as I found most things just as good or better on the Amiga side of things, with an asteroid shooter, Maelstrom, as an exception - loved that game :)
This. My gaming computer is a 10 or 11 year old machine, whenever the first motherboards with PCIE 3 came out. Only the GPU is relatively recent (an AMD RX5000 series). It works well enough even for recent games. The limiting factor is the GPU VRAM if I want to play in 4k.

Sure, my work zen 3 laptop is somewhat faster for compiling and stuff and only eats a fraction of the power, but for what I do, it wouldn't make enough of a difference to justify buying a new computer.

> Btw if it's either NATO or nuclear bombs, why didn't Finland get nuclear bombs in the last 60 years?

Finland is a small country and nukes are very expensive (and hard) to deal with all the way: development, manufacture, deployment, service. The pressure to have your own nukes is low when you consider an attack unlikely, which was the case for Finland for the last 60 years.

Countries that did not feel so safe moved much faster (considering different fates of Mr. Gaddafi and Mr. Kim). But recent Russian actions motivated a lot of its neighbors who were not worried before to spend whatever is needed to make an attack on them prohibitively expensive.

The real stupidity of this, aside from the horrible privacy implications, is the belief that somehow interacting with this device is proving you're human, as the article describes it. Actually, the human operating the device has decided that you are a human. If that person is verifying your ID, they're probably doing so with regular old real-world documents.

What the device is sending upline is nothing more than a number. That number can be used to identify you (with or without a password) and can and will also be used in all the other (bad) ways that identifying information is used. There is nothing special about capturing it with an orb or scanning your eyeballs. That's techno-mysticism, of which Sam is a big fan.

I don't understand who you think is to blame here? Was NATO supposed to accept Ukraine without Ukraine applying for membership?
But very simple world experience helps us not have to always communicate this.

Insurance in the UK varies dramatically from area to area and younger people have much higher rates. It's not pennies per year, we're talking significant sums. Not having a history of owning a car comes at a cost too.

Public transport is slower and more expensive on a per trip basis, meaning without a car you often have both higher per-trip costs and less time. You are more restricted in where you can go and what you can do.

The idea that the poorest would be much worse off if they had a car because they would go on frivolous holidays is bizarre.
