great, the new OS war is coming! the question is, who gets the network effect bottle neck right?

slightly off the topic. Scott Young is a great youtuber and podcaster. I don't understand why he is not as popular as 3b1b.

I thought OpenAI's mission was to ensure technology to benefit all humanity, not to fall into the hands of big governments and big business.

Stop, Nobody likes to hear about the truth, or look into the mirror. That's how you got downvoted.

> The Taiwanese are some of the most wonderful people you’ll ever meet.

this applies to everywhere. no new information.

> As a free and open democratic society, they would deserve our support for that alone.

ah, so it's really about ideology?

> If that’s not enough, then we should support them out of pure self-interest, as we’re all better off for having them.

Let's assume there exists one or more privileged ref system(s), and deal the two cases one by one. If there was one privileged reference system, and in our deduction process it's not involved,then the original deduction still holds. therefore the special ref system is an redudunt assumption. If there were many such ref systems, we would have to carefully get them involved in any possible deduction process, which is impossible. QED

so, after 10 years of reactjs, we've forgot how to do this in javascript?

couldn't agree more. From another point of view, it's time to end the dominance of company G, it has been killing the internet for too long: google ads are now just G tax.

killer app sells systems, not the other way around.

how did the world hold US accountable in the last 40 years, indulge me, please?

One of the most important tasks of a manager is to lead, not just to delegate. by 'leading', one of the core is about forming consensus. my question is, how could you annoying by folks doing 'big picture' thinking at the stage of forming consensus?

in tech history, one would be screwed in such partnership. the question is whom?

is this the hope for FreeBSD support? great!

there is no logical connection from "aggressive road map" to a messy code base. there are lots of ways to solve the problem of "productivity is absymally low", e.g. training, coding guidelines, given the team are all juniors. without an objective analysis, the problem you can see is always the phenomena, not the root. it appears to me more like an internal power struggle OP wants to win, than a real tech problem he/she wants to address.

so, what's the problem of the code base business-wise?

when was the last time China invaded another country and killed hundreds of thousands? I really not interested in arguing good vs. evil, China VS US, but your blindness is just amazing!

2 top news about UAE in a row, is another mideast war coming?

I had my epiphany when I saw the guy, whom I believed to be the master of socialization, practiced his lines in the toilet before a big event. Relax, everybody is socially awkward.

Good question.

The answer is the inertial of interest groups. US had put its weight on every corner of the society to demonize Russia, cut off every economic tie over 70 years, while done the exact opposite towards China. According to what I've read, a majority of members of congress and senate have business connections with China back in 2018 (80%? I don't remember the exact number). Never mention the bad images lasting forever in the entertainment(mass brain wash) industry.

Inside of the government, there have been piles of research papers, plans, and millions of man-year brain power accumulated on screwing Russia, it's cheap, reliable, achievable and efficient to just follow what old hands had envisioned.

For great powers, it's painful to conduct strategic adjustment. In authoritarian countries, it's mostly done through cold blooded purge. In liberal democracy, it's often the mass propaganda campaign with helps of God sent PR events, under extraordinary leadership, which believe or not, is not what elected are good at.

The field of international politics has been embarrassingly primitive to the degree that "The end of history" is a work of a serious scholar. Luckily we still have Mearsheimer, Walt and the old school of realpolitik.

I think Mearsheimer intentionally ignores the facts that "power corrupts, great power corrupts greatly", so that he doesn't need to address the annoying abnormalities that great powers fall eventually, and the incoming fall of USA sooner or later, even if the `blob` gets all the strategic decisions right. After all, the blackboxes of great powers would mess up from inside.

yes, basically the argument against 'whataboutism'. however I have a hard time to process the idea of 'follow what I told you, not what I have done' attitude.

why is this down voted? I honestly don't know. imho the point is perfectly valid. is there too much political correctness?

don't understand why it's down voted. seems to be a valid argument. care to clarify?

Exactly!

since US knows China may take it as an accusation, it feels there is no way to avoid accusing China therefore does it anyway. There are tons of interesting theories and stories around the endless chain of suspicion. I'd say Trump administration did a great job at destroying all mutual trust between the two. Now both sides have to take the worst intention of the other side for granted.

patriots pick the right one.

indeed. I feel it's a lot more difficult to agree with the `SV elites` (az, pg, etc.) recently, wondering if I'm too old or they live in their own rdf.

It reminds me a sci-fi story in which the society reaches the final stage (ultra-capitalism) that the 1 person (the ultimate capitalist) owns 99.99% of the assets, and the rest lives in his mercy. Fun read, and our days are numbered!

Interesting. It's probably better for the human-being as a whole: having a backup just in case one is f*cked up. Highly recommend the talk by Johnathon Blow: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pW-SOdj4Kkk

do you mean all the entities you listed above publish propaganda according to your definition, e.g. to sell copies, to explicitly push an agenda, although someone prefer to give them other names? do you want to revise your definition of propaganda?

OK. so is there any article is not to written to `influence an audience and further an agenda`.

Everybody's playing the game But nobody's rules are the same Nobody's on nobody's side
