> they failed due to a lack of record keeping.

That wasn't part of the argument? Lack of writing made their administrative systems less effective than it could've been otherwise. However plenty of less organized or centralized empires and states survived for longer periods.

> then held onto it until

The Inca empire was established less than a hundred years before the Spanish conquest (it was preceded by a much smaller state centered around Cusco). That's not a very long period. Most of the expansion happened almost within the living memory of the people living there when Pizzaro arrived (in the midst of a major civil war and as far as we can tell it wasn't the first one).

So it's very hard to determine how stable the system was or how long it could have survived. It was remarkable what they achieved compare to pre-contact states (e.g. the Aztec empire was more or less a somewhat lose confederation) but it really didn't last enough to be comparable to most of the more centralized old world empires.

Also it's not necessarily clear how far the administrative system extended from the core areas and how strong it was in the more distant recently conquered territories.
Same for electrical engineering. Some solutions require as much creativity and have infinite possible solution as software does.

The main difference is that most people working in electrical or electronic engineering aren't being forced to ship half-working products that might change tomorrow. When we ship a product, it's "done". The cost of modifying it later is not zero. Well, the same is true for software, but this is a reality that business gaslights developers into ignoring.

> If our immune systems are generally stronger, it could be that pandemics disappear, because the pathogen can't spread fast enough.

That's not how viral genetic evolution or our immune systems work.

R0 isn't typically effected by the strength of a population's immune systems, but the severity of symptoms is.

That's because the most infectious time is during initial viral replication and shedding, before your immune system has scaled its response (which takes time) enough to decrease viral load.

If everyone in the world had super immune systems, COVID would have still been a pandemic, but we would have had fewer deaths.
>What does the EU stand to gain from trying to kneecap China's technological development?

Same reason it's a thereat top the US. Because China's technological development is a threat to the profitability of EU companies, meaning it's a threat to the EU citizens standard of living. Because who would buy anything made in EU if products from China cost half as much at the same quality?

Why do you think they're putting so high tariffs on Chinese EVs despite the EU's push for zero carbon environmentalism. If they cared so much about the environment they would import cheap Chinese EVs to accelerate the switch to EVs, but they care more about preserving jobs and profits in the union which is what every country prioritizes, because otherwise profits would collapse, unemployment would skyrocket.
Two overlooked aspect of the research:

First, an object of the research is pre-human ancestors' tool use:

> Physical evidence of early hominin perishable tools is scarce. However, it is reasonable to assume the mechanical constraints surrounding tool use and manufacture have remained somewhat constant. Using a functional framework to understand the technical capabilities of extant hominoid tool users presents a novel approach to predict the perishable tool-using capabilities of our earliest relatives.

Note that the Paleolithic, the first period of stone tools, started ~2.58 - 3.3 mya (million years ago); stone can be durable since X mya and we have lots of evidence of that. But our evolutionary line split from the chimps' line ~7 mya (though remember the 7 mya shared ancestor was not a chimpanzee; they evolved too). Before the Paleolithic, and even after it began, our ancestors at times likely used tools made from perishable materials - I cooked dinner with a wooden spoon, myself.

Also, there's the question of culture - something once thought unique to humans:

> Our findings provide insights into the technical skills associated with perishable artefact-making and raise questions about how this knowledge is learnt and culturally transmitted.

There are two ways to pass down traits: genetics, and culture. If you think culture is somehow weaker or secondary, look at the traditions or look at languages that have lasted thousands of years with no genetic basis. An advantage of the cultural method is flexibility - it can be changed today; biological evolution takes awhile.

Honestly, arguing seems futile when it comes to opinions like GP. Those opinions resemble religious zealotry to me in that they take for granted that only humans can think.

Good luck finding people willing to immigrate to the USA at this point, where the administration is (literally!) disappearing them by revoking visas and arresting them without legal recourse. Non-citizens are one intemperate op-ed away from living the rest of their days in a Louisiana jail without trial.

The reality is we don't actually know how reliable these systems are, and Tesla has a long history of spreading misinformation about their own technology and obfuscating the facts. We don't even know how many cars crash while in FSD mode. We don't know how they crash, or why. None of this data is made publicly available, and of the data that is shared it is carefully curated, and we have no guarantee the data is not fudged. For example, are we certain that FSD does not disengage itself in dangerous circumstances to skew statistics in it's favor?

Trusting Tesla marketing on the topic of Tesla products is like trusting any kind of marketing. They have an incentive to sell the car, so they will lie, and they will cheat.
Indeed. And this is not only valid for ASML and chips but also for Ukraine. Europe doesn't know where its interests are, cannot defend them, and in fact is even unsure about its own identity- EU countries make strategic deals with non-EU ones (eg. Macron involving the UK in defence plans) while trying to isolate other EU members (Hungary, Slovakia). In the European media there is a constant confusion between EU and Europe, as if the political union and the geographic expression were interchangeable terms.

In this scenario it is absolutely trivial for the US to impose their own will on the EU. We act selflessly not out of a sense of responsibility or altruism but out of an actual lack of sense of self. And the current administration is so sure of the persistence of this state of things that has no trouble whatsoever antagonising the EU with threats and demands- they know we'll never get our acts together in any case.

Yes, but maybe that’s just the answer you’re fishing for.
Why does it matter whether they can learn? If I let them run off after a single pass, then yes their understanding of my understanding is relevant. After the Nth review, it’s not. The latter is ideal, else you have the game of telephone

The question is whether their understanding still contributes to the end product, not who does the mechanical action of entering data or drawing images.

This is interesting. I agree. I never really thought much about it but I definitely remember some people doubling down on whatever preference they had after a certain discussion.

For example since Vec can Deref to Slice, you can syntactically run Slice methods on a Vec; meaning Vec is a subtype of Slice.

How are you imagining that variable gets flipped? If an attacker has the ability to run arbitrary code, you’re already screwed.

To put it another way, somewhere in your code you do authorization: `if (isAuthorized) enterTheCastle()`. The gate to the castle, guarded by a single variable. In both cases, you have to be careful to program it correctly.

In the case of Nullables, it’s easy to program it correctly. Multiple things would have to go wrong for the nulled version to be accidentally used in production. Also, unless you go out of your way to make a security vulnerability, Nullables’ default behavior is to do nothing. They default closed rather than open.
It’s a we can always fix it in post-production which becomes less and less the case with many physical projects. But that’s at least somewhat different from there not being fairly established ways of doing many fundamental things and having best practices for testing etc.
Nice. Keep going.
That's because ECS is a database. I'm not exaggerating. "[ECS] is a database" appears in Scott Bilias's seminal talk on ECS. As Bilas put it, ECS is a data-driven, in-memory columnar store optimized for hot-path queries over components.

The reason OOP-based games have the problems they do is because they're essentially solving an ontological problem taxonomically. This mismatch over-complicates the solution.

> What troubles him more is geopolitics. The pressure on asml began to build in 2019, when the Dutch government, at America’s urging, barred the company from exporting its advanced euv machines to China.

On the other hand, this position is understandable and it makes me wonder why the Dutch would do this and keep such limitations in place - especially after seeing how clearly hateful the current US administration is towards the EU.

The EU should look towards ensuring its own prosperity and that includes the interests and the future of the companies within it.

That's a common sense take in my eyes.
