There is high variance in the ECCM capability of US weapons supplied thus far. JDAM and GLSDB have fallen flat while ATACMS and GMLRS have done well for themselves.

Modern US munitions have a mechanism that bricks the warhead after a certain amount of time from being fired (years). That way they retain use on the battlefield as a threat to enemy soldiers even if they don't properly detonate but wi

IP law more or less "worked" in the 20th century because of the first sale doctrine. Removing that is what led to the dystopian situation today.

Nuclear weapons, at least in the quantities they are currently stockpiled, are not an existential risk even for industrial civilization, nevermind the human species. To claim that in 10 years AI will be more dangerous and consequential than

I propose we use our powers of reasoning and knowledge of chemistry as a species to try to do better than just rolling the dice and hoping for the best. Economic suicide and blind luck are not the only options. But for some economic suicide

We removed sulphur from ship fuels and managed to increase the temperature by 0.1C almost immediately. We may not intentionally be using non-CO2 methods to influence the climate but we are certainly capable of it by accident.

If we sit on our thumbs and do nothing about it perhaps (the uncertainty bars around long term damage are massive though). But changing CO2 levels is not the only way to avert that damage.

Currently SpaceX makes up 90% of global launch mass in the past year. It may as well be the western world’s space program pretty soon, with China and Russia only launching their own military payloads.

Isn't it the case that foreigners can just apply to be exempted from the GFW? I remember people mentioning that to me online in the 2010s who were semi-long term living in China.
