China presumably really wishes Russia had set a wargoal of annexing Donbas / Crimea / all of Ukraine to be part of Russia. Putin instead recognizing the breakaway regions as independent sets a bad precedent from China's point

How does this guideline apply to, say, Github or Gitlab? Edit: Someone in a different comment said those cases are grandfathered because they named themselves before Git was trademarked

My prediction: Russia makes some quick wins against Ukraine's military, but discover they can't defeat a stubborn, well-armed guerilla resistance. Then things will get ugly. If we go by Russia's actions against Ukraine in th

> They didn't care if total production went down. They didn't care if millions of people died slowly and horribly of starvation. Phrasing it as "Production went down" is a rather extreme euphemism.

I recall Ray Dalio talking about a theory that societies cycle between hard money and soft money. Your society starts out by putting gold in a vault, because it's cheaper, easier and less vulnerable to robbery if you trade claim checks

You have the right idea, but the wrong direction. In theory, interest rate on government debt should be slightly below dividend payments of equity (stocks of private companies). That's because the dividends are more risky, so invest

A 22-year-old builds 1970's-era chips with ~$1M capital in his garage. Intel builds 2020's-era chips with ~$20B capital in Ohio. Take the arithmetic mean of 1970 and 2020, and take the geometric mean of 1M and 20B. This very roug
