The fact that USA is doing anything for Ukraine is astounding all in itself. Russia is not even a remote threat to USA, besides nuclear weapons. Russia is a threat to Europe - Ukraine, Georgia, Baltics, Poland, Finland, Kazahstan. And still

Solar is on par with fosil fuels. And at least in EU with cap & trade system accounting for externalities as well as stopping sponsoring Russian wars and terrorism, I would not be surprised if renewables were twice as cheap.

What we care about is overall cost, not how much is required to reinvest. If a renewable energy source is for example twice cheaper overall including the need to reinvest 25% then it is twice cheaper overall.

Social market economies exists and do fine - Nordic countries, even China. That's the only version of "communism" I can see as a steelman. Communism as a centrally planned economy can not work until central planning system wi

If you imagine apocalypse today like a nuclear war, that would still not be as bad as humans had it when only barter was known. The very poorest parts of the world are still beter off than most of the people before 1700. Only 200 years ago

I personally think Poland handled Lukashenko regime very well. There is no reason why migrants should be robbed by Belarus and then dumped into Western Europe trough Poland. Strong response discouraged more tragedies. And don't get me

Polish people in few cases did offer help to middle east refugees. But they do not want to stay in Poland. Many of them will just disappear into thin air. They want social welfare of Western Europe and are very vocal about it. On the other

Russia was thought to have the second most powerful army in the world, while Ukraine is the poorest country in Europe. It was assumed Ukraine will fall in 3 days. Whether Russia succeeds or not depends on your expectations. To me, as a Pole

The goal is to cripple Russian economy, not ruble. Russia is exporting oil and importing most of everything else. We made it very difficult for them to import that everything else especially in industrial quantities. Whatever was produced i

They would risk their biggest market with potential for growth for a tiny market that is shrinking further. Also, China may not like NATO, but they are not great fans of the war in Ukraine either.

I'm highly confident that LaMDA can, or with small fine tuning should be able to apply Rule 110 [0]. People claim that LMs are just pattern matchers or hash tables. Rule 110 is literally 8 elements long hash table. I'm not sure wh

For car industry and space industry it is a complete revolution. From what I understand he can legally backtrack from the deal, but he would have to pay some billion dollars penalty. Not cheap by any means, but he can afford that. And havin
