Beginning in 2019, Ukraine went full-press on seeking NATO membership.

We've gone through this already. Yes, Ukraine wanted to join NATO - but the bigger fact was that Europe was against it. So it wasn't going to happen.

If one country has been saying for almost 2 decades that if another country joins NATO it means war

Have you actually read the Munich speech? It doesn't even mention Ukraine, and doesn't come close to using the belligerent language that you're saying it does.

I suggest that you develop a practice of reading original source materials, such as for the the 2007 Munich speech, directly -- rather than uncritically relying on random snippets from Wikipedia quoting what certain pro-Russia commentators (like Mearsheimer and Cohen) say about them.
There is room for multiple watch types out there. A beefy feature filled watch may not be worth the tradeoff in battery life for you, but for others it's perhaps better. As long as you buy the watch model that fits your preferences, the existence of the models that you don't like shouldn't affect you. It's not like they have sucked up all the energy in the space preventing folks from making watches with longer battery life.

This is sort of a problem if a society depends on them as a piece of critical infrastructure. If a city owns a bus route and needs to evacuate a population, they can just do it by edict.

No one is considering this edge case and how it should be handled at Uber. A company or community that has pride in what they offer would probably provide rides for free during such an anomaly. This is a drawback on the scalability of technology as we currently implement it.

An integer is just a concatenation of bits. Floating point appears more complicated but from an information theory perspective it is also just a concatenation of bits. If, for the sake of argument, one replaced a 64-bit int with 64 individual bits, that's really the same amount of information and a structure could hypothetically then either choose to recreate the original 64-bit int, or use the 64-bits more efficiently by choosing from the much larger set of possibilities of ways to use such resources.

Trits are helpful for neural nets, though, since they really love signs and they need a 0.

So from the perspective that it's all just bits in the end the only thing that is interesting is how useful it is to arrange those bits into trits for this particular algorithm, and that the algorithm seems to be able to use things more effectively that way than with raw bits.

This may seem an absolutely bizarre zigzag, but I am reminded of Busy Beavers, because of the way they take very the very small primitives of a Turing Machine, break it down to the smallest pieces, then combine them in ways that almost immediately cease to be humanly comprehensible. Completely different selection mechanism for what appears, but it turns out Turing Machine states can do a lot "more" than you might think simply by looking at human-designed TMs. We humans have very stereotypical design methodologies and they have their advantages, but sometimes just letting algorithms rip can result in much better things than we could ever hope to design with the same resources.

Yeah, sadly true. While I am not a platform engineer I've witnessed their plight many times and I truly sympathize.

Now more than ever because I started making an effort to self-host much more than before... the amount of scripts I have to write just to achieve idempotency, nevermind immutability, is staggering, and I am already questioning my approach. Will likely start making use of ZFS or BTRFS snapshots, or I don't know, I'll just start snapshotting manually the entire filesystem on my Linux machines (like store all dir/file paths with their sizes and modification dates; it's a start and you can diff against such "snapshots").

I am just not comfortable with running commands and not having an idea what and where changed. It's insane that everyone is just accepting this! I am not okay with it, I want to see an exact breakdown on what changed and where and how.

IMO working on this and bringing it to the mainstream is loooong overdue.

Unit testing in the realm of software originated from the Smalltalk world, where a unit described the test suite for a class. That, with some liberty around the use of class in languages that are not class-centric, reflects the vast, vast, vast majority of tests I see out there in the wild.

The reality is that unit testing swept the world and has become synonymous with testing. The days of yore when things like capture and replay testing were it are behind us. Today, it is uncommon for anyone to write anything other than unit tests (as originally defined).

And that's why "unit testing" has become confusing. Its original meaning no longer serves a purpose. Today, we just call it "testing", leaving those who wish to continue to use "unit" for the sake of fashion to invent pet definitions; definitions not shared by anyone else.

Those specks are almost certainly not distant satellites, but very nearby specks of dust and debris caused by the separation process.

One dead giveaway is that they don't appear to be moving in perfectly straight lines. If they were distant, this would imply they were not free-falling but under powered flight, at an implausibly high acceleration.

> ADHD individuals tend to be better in crises than non ADHD

Two potential factors come to mind. Firstly, those with ADHD are always having to think on their feet and drag their attention back to the issue at hand so when there is a highly distracting and distressing situation it is merely an issue of degree for them. Secondly, another symptom of ADHD is hyper-focus which may help in certain crises.

>until they elect a president that throws allies under the bus (I.e. NATO, NAFTA, etc)

Based on recent news, Trump has done more for NATO rearmament than any US president in history. Gee, maybe sometimes drastic steps are needed when 20 years of three other presidents doing everything but stand on their heads while begging other NATO members to spend more on their own defense failed.

Trump was lambasted by the usual bien-pensant suspects when he told NATO this in 2018 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vpwkdmwui3k>. He was right when at the UN he warned against Western European dependence on Russian energy, for which the German foreign minister and others laughed at him <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FfJv9QYrlwg>.

And remember, Trump isn't even in office now; he's already done more for Western collective defense than a) the putative current president and b) an actual land war in Europe!

Your two redirect scenarios isn't surge pricing though, and I think run counter to the very nature of surge pricing.

In the first scenario the restaurant is reducing stress on the kitchen and the client by offering an alternative with a good reason. If the restaurant instead said "you can pay an extra $2 or wait 15 minutes", then it's comparable but I haven't run into that yet.

In the Happy Hour scenario the restaurant offers specific discounts to increase sales volume
> Even if such integration tests would be possible, there would have to be so many of them that it would make maintaining and running the entire test suite practically unbearable. The reason we're able and should test all code paths is precisely because unit tests are much quicker to write and run. They're short, don't require complex setup, and can run independenly from every other unit.

I think having a good architecture plays a big role here.
It really depends. Up until the 90s Fortran was completely dominant. These days a lot of people have moved to C++. Important open source codes such as OpenFOAM and SU2 are in c++.

No, I got your point, I'm saying that partial mitigations for that are already in place. Every business on the planet also assumes there will be slow times and busy times, and the busy times will make up for the slow.

Surge pricing only really works when the demand and supply can be elastic, and a Wendy's restaurant is a bad example.

I've used SymPy in a very similar way, in my case it was some nasty derivatives that were needed for some orbital mechanics calculations.

First write down the equations, then let SymPy do the laborious math part and turn the output into C code.

I'm guessing this is why you don't see a lot of SymPy projects in the wild. It was used for some intermediate calculations, and the results were turned into the product's code and the symbolic code is thrown away.
