It could be Russia, but it could also be any political movement in France, such as far-left movements, opposing the Olympics or the government in general.

Another example: https://www.theartnewspaper.com/2024/07/26/non-artists-take-...

Edit: to clarify, I'm French, and this exact same modus operandi has been used by far-left movements in the past to disrupt high-speed lines; if you have solid arguments against my theory, I suggest you address them before blindly downvoting.
This. There's a lot to be said about understanding registers and assembly and different languages and how a USB packet is constructed, but efficiency in reverse engineering comes down to effective pattern recognition.

A binary is likely to have a reasonable amount of often-called code for memory operations (memset, memcpy, strcat, strlen, sscanf, log) and a lot of library code (Flexcomm_Init, Clock_AttachClk, SPI1_Handler, NVIC_EnableIRQ) and then probably fairly little actual application code. For Ghidra users, being able to ignore the boilerplate (mem and BSP code) and quickly find and analyze the application code saves a TON of time.

(Conversely, if I know a binary is written using FreeRTOS, finding the task creation function would be my first step, as this reveals nearly all of the application code.)

There are techniques to help (setting a flash memory region as non-write so string references are recognized and disassembled correctly, loading a chip SVD so all the library code is more obvious) but those come with experience or a good hands-on tutorial, and they still won't tell you everything about the application code.

In my own breakdown of one Cortex-M binary (bare metal, no objects known) the only reason I was able to get the firmware in the first place was by noticing and decoding a base64 string in an unpacked Electron app used for USB communication with the device. This ended up holding plaintext credentials for their update server which had two channels: one for encrypted production binaries and the other for unencrypted development binaries.

In this specific case, it helped to know what base64 looks like, but that's like how knowing different methods of slicing onions might help you figure out a recipe by tasting a cooked meal. Very often such background knowledge is irrelevant. Once in a while it will be the only realistic way forward.
The other replies have an excellent example in Poland. To respond to your anecdote - that’s not how statistics works. It doesn’t mean that everyone under a certain criteria will immediately stab someone. You can have privileged women [0] perform these acts too.

In the theory yes. I can imagine that when shit hits the fan, France isnt able to answer accordingly.
This is silly. Why would climate activists sabotage electric railways mostly powered by carbon neutral nuclear power.
Well, blowing up Nordstream was clearly against Russian interests, so yeah, nobody believe that the Russian government did.

This one? Anything that messes up with the credibility of NATO governments (and France is one of the pillars of NATO) could help Russia. Which of course doesn't prove that it is Russia, either.
Banksy doesn't really exist and all his paintings are actually an elaborate marketing campaign we don't understand yet.
There's a reason pretty the majority of electronic addressing uses that second format***. It's just easier to follow, and in fact you can start executing before the sentence is finished - as well as discard any specifics you don't care about without having to scan the entirety first.

Following the second instructions works like this: Go to refrigerator, go to second shelf, go to back right, go to jar.

Meanwhile following the first set of instructions requires this: remember jar, remember back right, remember second shelf, go to refrigerator, recall second shelf, recall back right, recall jar.

It is objectively a worse way to give instructions, because you are giving them in reverse order.

If you had to code some software following instructions and your interface was push(instruction)/end(), your first sentence would require more code and more working memory just to store instructions until you've given the last one, while for your second example they could just be executed right away.

*** Funnily enough it still tends to get flipped the closer we get to natural language. URL paths, domains, IP-addresses, etc, are all written the proper way, except if you add usernames into the mix. Suddenly we turn natural language "at" into "@" and prepend them.
do you honestly believe France is going to engage in direct military action against Russia? even for HN-distortion-field hallucinations, this is ridiculous

The approach of bcachefs developers is that they will only recommend it's usage if it's absolutely, 100% stable and won't eat your data. Bcachefs isn't in that state yet and the developers don't pretend it is.

This avoids the kind of trust issues that btrfs has

OK. This is off topic a bit but it's like this: I don't much like tea or coffee—except when they're very good. But anyway I drink both and that includes really bad stuff—with one exception, I will not drink either with milk/cream or sugar. I'll tolerate maybe a single teaspoon of sugar in coffee but any sugar in tea I find repulsive and just won't drink it. So, decaffeinated coffee falls within the range of 'acceptable' beverages I'll drink, but I'd prefer the real thing. (I lied a bit there, I also find decaffeinated tea truly repulsive and I never drink it but then it's so rare (at least in my circles) that I never come across it.)

As I said I really enjoy really excellent tea and coffee but I find getting what I like very difficult at a price I can afford. With tea, I used to drink good quality Darjeeling but it's almost impossible to get nowadays (it's over $1,000/kilo). Adding anything to that except perhaps a slice of lemon would be a crime. The cheap stuff that's now sold under the name is little more than tea dust, a good cheap Orange pekoe is a much better deal. I also love good green tea but again the only way I can guarantee to get what I want at a reasonable price is in the tea markets in Japan and I'm not there very often.

Similarly, truly good coffee is also very difficult to get, and it's fiddly to prepare. Even with good beans and an espresso machine I'll more often than not make a suboptimal brew.

I've this theory that many people who add milk and sugar to tea and coffee do so to mask their bad quality although they're not necessarily aware of the fact as it's so rare to get truly good product.

Incidentally, I was introduced to tea somewhere about 4/5 years of age when my mother gave me a weak brew with milk and sugar. I recall that about the time I started school telling my mother to stop putting milk in the tea, the following week I told to stop adding sugar. I've taken that way ever since.
I beg to differ, there are other paths on the way IMO.

USSR had a planning economy, so they decided ahead what good and in which quantity must be produced in a coming five years. And then comes some genius and makes a computer better than planned. What should they do?

They should do what most management textbooks tell you: adjust the planning to include this innovation in the plan.
In an individualistic country like The Netherlands people will typically pick what is best for themselves. You need to give them a better alternative if you want to influence their decision making.

Nobody is trading a 20 minute drive for a 60 minute bus trip in order to create a better neighbourhood. Get that bus trip down to at most 30 minutes and people might reconsider.
> but how would the US feel about a country

You mean about anonymous individuals (who might or might not be citizens of that given country) throwing around that idea on an online forum?

But I'll try not being facetious. I do of course understand your point, even if I do think you overdramatizing it.

Yes US has been waging a commercial war with China, just like China was waging a war with the US. I don't really see how is the US the clear aggressor here (of course it mainly has itself to blame for entering into this unsustainable relationship with China to begin with; however I still strongly believe that in relative terms China benefited significantly more from US/rest of the developed outsourcing much of their industrial/etc. production to China than the other way around, though).

And obviously China is a clear aggressor in certain aspects (e.g. how would as British citizen if Germany/France/etc. started threatening to invade your island over Brexit?). If that's not a good analogy we could use Ireland and Britain instead.

> possibility of cutting them off of global supplies and even blocking their shipping routes

Anyway, this is sounds extremely far fetched. Orthogonal to what the US was and is still doing; I don't think any country did more to keep global shipping routes open for the 50+ years or so. Blockading China would be the equivalent of purposefully shutting yourself in the gut (even if we ignore any potential military reaction)

Why would it be more probable ? How would they be able to organise a coordinated attack spread out so much, and how would they have procured the necessary explosives?

And most of all, why would they attack high speed rail infrastructure which is one of the greenest ways of transportation?

No, it wouldn't make any sense for an "eco-terrorist" group to do it in this way. Same as it doesn't make sense for an Islamic terrorist group.

This has Russia written all over it, from the methods to the Russians already arrested to the fool bragging about it yesterday in Bulgaria.
ecologists wouldn't attack the only way of having low carbon transport over far distance.
You are describing those as 2 distinct groups, but in reality those 2 are, even if indirectly, very well connected. Le pen is sponsored (almost) directly by russia, just listen to what she keeps saying, she ain't stupid. So are other extreme right or left wing parties (or just very corrupt popular individuals) across whole Europe. There is no greater ideology, just raw destabilization so they take whoever fits the bill, I wouldn't be even surprised with isis in some way.

Russia has 1 very clear long term goal, from way before they invaded Ukraine in 2014 - making Europe as weak as possible, while extracting as much money as possible. With this optic, their approach is methodical and steady, and its up to us to decide how to react. Germany's Scholz (and Merkel before, god she really did tons of damage across whole EU security wise) took the bait quite some time ago.

Word of mouth, to start. If there's no marketing, consumers in general will understand that they need to seek out products that they want and need, and will eventually find your new product.

A side bonus is that this will eliminate a lot of useless garbage. Without advertising to manipulate people into buying things they didn't need and otherwise would not want, companies that sell junk will fail.

At any rate, finding customers within the constraints of the law (including a hypothetical advertising ban) is not society's problem, it's the company's problem.
I did not say that being poor explains attempts at murder, or anything of the sort. If you’re going to engage in that sort of discussion where you straw man, I’m not going to engage with it

Yeah, my question was mostly out of curiosity.

At some point someone must have approved this project and the costs coming with it. One answer could be the military with endlessly deep pockets.

My point is that it should have been easy to just continue with shipping, as it seems to me that it has to be the default. But maybe I am wrong?

Either way there has to be pros and cons of course. But risking a train accident at 100 mph relative speed and fuel laying open without means for cooling seems like a very high risk.

France is now the de-facto most important political player in Europe.
You make a fair point[1], but I'd still like to know about the prevalence of this. Not saying I don't believe there's a problem, but I think that media reporting is skewed towards sensationalism, and any kind of misconduct makes for clickable news.

In a country with more than 300 million people, there's bound to be bad ones, and some of those will become cops. I'd be happy if you could point out some comparative studies between countries, that take this into account, but I guess that's something I could just search for online

Not coincidentally, we saw massive cuts to the policing and criminal justice budgets in the years after 2010. Prisons are 99% full, the prosecution and probation services are overwhelmed, there's a two-year backlog of court cases and thousands of experienced police officers were replaced with cheaper new recruits.

It would be an exaggeration to say that Britain has descended into lawlessness, but not a vast exaggeration. A great deal of crime is simply being ignored, because there aren't the resources in the system to investigate or prosecute it.

... Yes, that might be a _little_ extreme for [check notes] disrupting the trains. I mean, maybe if it was Switzerland, but I don't think France takes train punctuality quite _that_ seriously.

(But yeah, I'd assume this was Putin.)
When we consider sets of rules that show emergent properties,very small details like the conflict resolutions discussed here can have a tremendous impact on how the general strategies would pan out at high level play. That really makes me think of how rules for "game-of-life" type of cellular automata rules can be designed.
Small tweaks decide if the automata has a trivial computational power or is Turing-complete. Within the Turing-complete class there's a wide range of behaviors that can be obtained if we look at the structure that can spontaneously appear or statistical properties (e.g. what is the probability that the grid ends up entirely empty).

These observations are interesting as they give a test suite, or 'local properties', that can be run against any given simultaneous ruleset to characterize it.
It would be fascinating to be able to run an AI to have an idea of how 'optimal strategies' (global properties) would look like in each case and see what relations we can draw from it.

(unfortunately I would assume it is still unreasonably costly to do something like this?)
It's funny seeing the behavioral differences in communally oriented societies vs idiosyncratic societies. This kind of proposal would never work in USA or India, but I could see it work in Japan and Korea.

Nuclear deterrence relies on credibility, so test launches are regularly announced and conducted publicly.

No the announcements referenced in the article are not about sabotages.
It's interesting to keep track of some known people. Sometimes you get to see (for example) a thread with cperciva, tptacek and animats - and I think it makes it more fun to read when you know...
There is a special case in the UK of people deliberately breeding aggressive dogs and then claiming that they aren't, the "Bully XL" problem.

Interesting that Germany charges the owner. It's not clear whether that happens here - if it was the case, I would have thought more noise would have been made about it while legislating to ban that breed.
It makes no sense. The whole point of nuclear weapons is deterrence (so "theory"). The moment you actually have to use them ("practice") everybody involved loses. And the uninvolved too.
> I bet you more people prefer the water gun

Depends where your sample is from, if you just did a worldwide the result would surprise you.
You guys are lucky in the NL that you have the _option_ to bike, drive, public transport. Maybe driving is still the fastest but the others are still treated as first class citizens.

In the US you couldn’t realistically bike anywhere nor does public transport go everywhere. Not to mention the 10 minute walk to the bus stop is probably much worse, especially outside of big cities.
That's what taxis/ubers are for. It's not economically viable in every City to have public transport running empty all night just for a few people who like to party yet live far away from the party scene.
>ZFS online deduplication is not comparable with on-demand dedup offered btrfs and xfs

Yeah we should definitely let amoral and psychologically manipulative business practices be handled by the magical market! After all, it's worked so great so far in all the places without a billboard/advertising ban where you definitely don't see an ad on every single public surface where an eyeball might eventually land.
