Thinking like this is what will take the US further into isolation. Everyone wants to engage and help a nice big brother. No one likes a bully, they will nod and agree when required but in the end America last is the main thing going on everyones mind right now.

The mere unreliability of the government in keeping a narrative and position from one week to the next much less from one administration to the other is enough to alienate the allies. Count in annexation talks, tariff war as a negotiation gun.

If having US help requires kissing the president ass instead of being an ally and sharing of the American ideals, the US as it pretended to be, does not exist anymore.
This also puts you on the same side as Neville Chamberlain, so.

There are a lot of bad people who espoused war in the past. There are also a lot of bad people who ran from war and appeased the Hitlers of the world, although many of their names did not survive because they weren't around afterward to write the histories.

We tried doing literally nothing when Russia invaded Georgia, and we tried doing basically nothing when Russia invaded Crimea in 2014. How did that work out? He invaded another god damned country. He really thought it was going to be a three-day operation; he thought he was going to be welcomed in Kiev. Should we have done nothing, forever?

The US siding unconditionally with Israel is nothing new. The US siding with Russia against democratic allies is absolutely new.

And even then, I don't think any US president ever treated any leader in such a disgraceful manner. Not only heads of state, even the Taliban got a ton more respect (probably too much) than this.

Of course we already knew that Trump liked dictators and tyrants, and disrespects any form of decency, but now that the masks are truly coming off, what's underneath them is a lot more ugly than I could possibly imagine.
Absolutely not denying that at all!

But the perception (even before Trump) was that our European allies can and should be able to hold down the fort in Europe, because it's increasingly looking like we cannot fight a two-continent war, and we at least have strategic depth in Europe, and not at all in the Pacific.

While there is merit to be able to do things without model assistance, this is a tale as old as time: purists who resist model usage will in the end be the unintentional enforcers of a culture of: everybody uses AI but the ones who come on top are people who pretend otherwise/who can best hide the fact that they are using them

You're probably aware of things like hyping up your resume, hyping up your stories and the existence of people on the other side who know of this dog and pony show and continue to play along?

> But the US military would be up in arms about it.

The risk is why they'd be up in arms. Personally I think it would get spun as Europe acting against the US for no reason and Europe would become the scapegoat for any economic issues the US cause themselves.

The only real option is to wait for the US to do something undeniable while saying you don't want it, like tariffs, and then to retaliate as hard as possible when it happens. The difficulty with that approach is that it makes it easier for the aggressor to pick off one target at a time.

I'd be absolutely stunned if the Trump admin actually puts tariffs on the EU. I think it's a distraction so they can claim the EU capitulated in some way and Canada didn't, which somehow makes the tariffs on Canada justified.

The tariffs should help us understand if they're crazy or orchestrating something more strategic. If the goal is to weaken Canada economically so the US can pilfer Canada's resources, the US will "make up" with Europe and punish Canada as much as possible.

Canada, the EU, the UK, NZ, AUS, Mexico, etc. should have (loudly) created an agreement for unified retaliatory tariffs against the US over a month ago. Now we're open to being picked off one-by-one and it sucks.
I don't think the minority of Americans who voted for him really thought about this situation.
I've wholeheartedly disagreed with a lot that past administrations, especially liberal administrations, said and did. But I don't recall ever being so absolutely disgusted by them as I am today.

We are currently watching the downfall of the current world order and the US as a bastion of democracy. And I'm not exaggerating. Trump is aligning himself with Russian interests. He even had a Russian state media representative at that meeting. Rome had to fall, I'm sorry I'm living to see it.

Trump, you'll never read this, but I need to say it anyway...there aren't words to describe how despicable you are. Tyrant wannabee and greedy coward. You are selling the American soul to cozy up to a murder and rapist. Those who voted for you have no excuse. You were always clear about the kind of man you are.
That stuck out to me too, that's where his head was at...just astonishing.
This isn’t in the nature of democracy, it’s in the nature of winner-take-all FPTP presidential systems specifically.
Not at the moment, but we'll put something up soon.

We're focused on keeping globstar light-weight, so a hosted runtime is not in the roadmap (although we'll add support for running Globstar checkers natively on our commercial product DeepSource). You should be able to write any checkers in Globstar that you can write in the other tools you've listed.

Our goal is to make it very easy to write these checkers — so we'd be optimizing the runtime and our Go API for that.
This is basically Nick Land's core thesis that capitalism and AI are identical.

> "I dunno. It's what the models said."

The obvious human idiocy in such things often obscures the actual process:

"What it [capitalism] is in itself is only tactically connected to what it does for us — that is (in part), what it trades us for its self-escalation. Our phenomenology is its camouflage. We contemptuously mock the trash that it offers the masses, and then think we have understood something about capitalism, rather than about what capitalism has learnt to think of the apes it arose among."

Probably told him that since he and his government cannot account for tens of billions of dollars that the US gave them, and that we have evidence that Ukraine is selling arms to Mexican cartels (designated terrorist organizations), that we would no longer tolerate our relationship, as is.

Somehow all of the whiny commenters on here forget that DJT's first administration provided considerable CIA/Tier1 training and resources to the Ukrainian military. Then Russia invaded while Biden was president. They didn't invade on Trump's watch. They invaded while Biden was running(?) our country. Now, yet again, Trump has to go clean up the mess -- just like he did after Obama gave Putin the flexibility to invade Ukraine after his win in the 2012 election.
Makes sense—thanks for sharing this!
Usually we keep the mainstream news out of here but felt I had to post this one because I've never seen anything like it and was curious to hear other people's perspective here.

To me it feels like a setup to look good in front of their audience without any proper desire to engage in true diplomacy.
Most here will not like that opinion, but I think this is essentially a good thing, it will eventually end this war - at huge costs for Ukraine. The fault of the USA is not that they now pressure Ukraine towards ending this war, the fault of the USA was that they did not accept Russia's demand - or at least tried to find an acceptable compromise - for Ukraine not to join NATO which caused this tragedy.
Thats like asking, who cares if a drug dealer moves next door, he/she is not in your house.
r/conservative members are banned after disagreeing with trump more than a few times. To stay members, they LITERALLY must excuse anything Trump does. Thus no matter what, they will find a way to support him out of fear of being banned and thus not being real conservatives.

To be fair, we have Japanese internment camps, slavery, the Trail of Tears, and several others. I'm not sure if this one is going to rank all that highly on the leaderboard.
No, it is for once representing American interests. Not Ukrainian interests. Not Lockheed Martin’s interest.

Americans don’t want to be embroiled in endless wars.

What is your alternative? Keep sending billions to Ukraine? Send American soldiers to die? What is it you would like to happen? Are you going to die for Ukraine? Are you going to send your kids to die there?
I suspect Trump lasting the entire term is less likely.

If something happens to Trump after January 20th, 2027, Vance can serve out the remainder of this term, then run as the incumbent for two additional terms as a frontman for the Musk/Thiel axis, a role he has played well for some time.

If the country's rulers want to bother to keep the pretense of Constitutional government, that is.

These arguments sometimes reach juries, who are asked to award damages based on "physical harms," in a separate category from "mental anguish."

The argument that "brains are rewired" or "generations of genetics are harmed" is popular in 'trauma informed' arguments for compensation or government help.

Or they can negotiate for peace. This is how most wars end. It is also how this war will end. If only the 2022 Istanbul negotiations were supported by the west instead of being undermined. If I were Ukrainian I would be furious with the western 'allies', essentially lying about unconditional support and promoting an impossible outcome for their own geopolitical interests. Utterly shameful.

Perhaps it's more a case of "what did Russia offer Trump?" and the answer probably starts at "work to get you into power to let you loot the coffers".

The multiplayer had a common key bug that made it hard on some maps. The atreides airdrones could fly at the edge of the map and not be targeted, and take out the harvester carryalls / and other air units
There were claims of a flame tank bug that could target any unit that was mentioned on the forums much much later, but I don't know if the details were ever revealed, I never figured it out so I guess its just theoretical..

Putin seems really hesitant to start a new round of mobilization and refills his army with volunteers. Some of which are voluntolds, but the regime seems to be afraid of the Moscow/St.Petersburg street, so to say.

His grip on the Russian nation, especially after 3 years of endless bloody slog with almost nothing gained, does not seem to reach into the "give millions of recruits weapons and they will use them exactly as told and there is no risk that they could rebel" territory.
No. They are in the first year of their current level/role. That may mean the first year of employment. It could also mean they were promoted.
I was excited to see that not only does this article cover other languages, but that this error happens in go. I was a bit surprised because map access is generally protected by a race detector, but the RedBlack tree used doesn't store anything in a map anywhere.

I wonder if the full race detector, go run -race, would catch it or not. I also want to explore if the RB tree used a slice instead of two different struct members if that would trigger the runtime race detector. So many things to try when I get back to a computer with go on it.
Can you explain how this mirrors what happened in Germany?
Deterrence works. That's why the cold war is remembered as the cold war and not the hot war. Zelensky knows this while Trump is publicly taking all leverage (NATO membership, security guaranties) off the table while the Russians have not even started negotiating - and why would they? Trump is doing all their work for them
My guess: dementia and psychopathy.
Good point. I hadn't considered it might be intentional, like spam emails using poor grammar and appearing more scammy to select for easier marks.
If the war ends, that is peace. Do you believe Ukraine will be better off financially by continuing the war, even if it is on America’s credit card? They will not flourish in the present state, however noble they believe the effort is. War is not fair.

Who gets to define what constitutes “hate speech”?
Also the Muslim refugees flooding Europe crisis has largely been a result of the Syrian civil war, with Russia being the main and mostly only ally of Bashar al-Assad. Supposedly, motivation there was Putin not wanting to lose his only ally in the region left after Gaddafi was murdered, not so much an intentional effort to destabilize Europe, but hey, it worked out, I guess.

I am curious about this. Why you say it?
Ezra Klein has many axes to grind, so I take his commentary with a grain of salt, but it's probably right that Elon has become a solipsist with a savior complex, and harbors the attendant cognitive dissonance that comes with that. I still hold some hope that one day he'll snap out of it, but that won't happen unless he finds himself in a dire situation.
Everything Trump touches ... dies.
There is definitely something about writing by hand that seems to have unique cognitive and memory benefits. But strictly only writing by hand is unnecessary and of course inefficient.
Maybe it has something to do with those mishandled classified documents about Russian interference in US elections that turned up at Mar a Lago in 2021.
There is something going in for sure, but the man knows in his heart that he will be dead soon. Surviving his term at his great age will be impressive.

Old men often don't care about personal help, so look to his kin/family for benefits.
You can choose to not start it, you can't force others not to — peace needs all parties, war only needs one.
I've been going through a huge amount of grief since the election. I thought I had moved onto acceptance, but anger keeps resurfacing.
It's funny, I mean I don't know the exact divide between MAGA and trad Republicans, but the trad Republicans I know have been the ones to turn pro-Russia. There definitely seems to be a split in /r/conservative.
No one wants peace, they want justice. But putting aside all that nonsense, this is a relatively cheap way to fuck with Russia, one of our main geopolitical adversaries. If Ukraine is willing to jump into the meat grinder, let's give Russia the push it needs to join them. Don't give up a winning position for no reason.
If Trump was taking direct orders from Putin, what would he be doing differently?
I think you're in the minority. All Trump had to say was "I'll end wokeism and immigration" and he easily won the election.

jump right to the most extreme possible claim to pull from the above and _strrrretch_ it -- impeccable form! It's not even a logical fallacy, it's just lying about what the person before you said, presented as though they look foolish for saying it. Smooth, hollow, soulless stuff.
> SSRIs aren’t shown to be much better than placebo

"Not much better than placebo" is burying the lede.

The real problem is that placebo performs very well in depression studies. It's a well studied phenomenon.

Effective antidepressants are marginally better than placebo in the studies because the placebo group improves so much, not because the antidepressants don't do anything.

> and are shown to be about as effective as therapy — which is actually durable.

False dichotomy. The recommendation is for people on SSRIs to also do therapy.

You don't have to choose one or the other.

> There’s also rates of sexual side effects in excess of 70% [1]

If you read further in your [1] you'll see that the rate of side effects is not "in excess of 70%" but lower, and it depends on both the medication and the dose. Switching medications and changing doses is often sufficient to ameliorate some or all of these effects.

That paper also mentions newer alternatives such as Vilazodone (SSRI plus 5-HT1A action) which are shown to have lower incidence of these side effects.

> and they cause weight gain which is separately associated with depression.

SSRIs aren't really associated with weight gain once you exclude the older ones like Paroxetine which have anticholinergic effects. A lot of studies find statistically insignificant weight loss or slight gain.

Weight gain is really a negligible decision factor in modern SSRI treatment: https://www.ccjm.org/content/ccjom/70/7/314.full.pdf

There's a lot of misinformed fear mongering in your comment.
US security guarantees are probably not worth the paper they are written on.
How would we know? If they're really successful about it, wouldn't it look something like, say, ~2 years of almost complete inaction while Israel flattens Gaza?
