I think you are confusing support for expansion—which was necessary for it to happen—with somehow forcing the hand of other nations to join. Yes the above all shows that America thought it was in its strategic interest, that Clinton support

No. Countries with their own free choice asked to be part of NATO. The US did not push this on them. NATO expansion happened exactly because none of those countries trusted their neighbor Russia, who had previously invaded them and kept the

Ireland followed Britain down this disastrous planning hole and now has a matching housing crisis. For most of the last sixty years, a good idea about how to run an economy should have involved closely scrutinizing what the British were doi

I had the minimum machine to run Linux 0.95 on: a 386sx16 with 4mb of memory and a 40mb drive. I actually had only 2mb but I recall Linux installed but barely ran. I upgraded it with SIPPs so I could run Linux properly. It was incredibly fu

No I am not. Who is excusing drug dealers? But, making things illegal that (clearly) people will buy anyway just pours billions into criminal enterprises. The vast majority of crime is funded by drug money in one way or another. The same th

This. Understand it all least to a level where you can make an effort vs risk/impact trade off. Ideally eliminate all low effort issues and mitigate high risk or high impact issues. But eliminating them all is not usually practical. An

So many assumptions there about my point of view, which you clearly don’t understand, and about how the cartels exist and are funded. Did I say our support any of the things in your reply? Read again. Some life advice: spend less time assum

There is a war happening because we have waged it. We attacked the symptom with military gusto and ignored the problems that caused it. We made domestic policies that legislated morality and poured billions into the coffers of the cartels.

If you have a point to make, it would help if you made it.

It’s shouldn’t be a war at all. That framing is unhelpful to solving the actual policy and societal problems.

It’s not so many things. It’s two people who died, one of whom was 95 and had a heart condition. With the people dead, the locked up dog died. But people like a good conspiracy.

Clint Eastwood is not my favorite human by a long shot, but that movie and Hackman’s performance are both amazing.

The dog that died was locked up and probably died without water. The two that weren’t locked up survived. It’s likely she was in some kind of danger and he had a heart attack trying to deal with it. He was found in the mud room by the door

It was fairly competitive, but it also took quite awhile to build up a full set of applications. Real NT didn’t run a lot of older Windows apps. And the hardware it ran on didn’t scale vertically in the server market like the UNIX systems.

The article title is a little misleading. He says he wants to see proof that AI is generating actual value by seeing actual economic growth as a result. He doesn’t like the hype, which is based on arbitrary goals that have no tie to actual

Providing them less desirable—to humans—-scraps would have likely prevented competition with them in hunting game. Why hunt living game if you can wait around and get scraps for free? So original intention of humans likely not domestication

There was a lot more than that going on and I think you've pretty generally mischaracterized the main problem with the mid-80's era Apple—which had nothing to do with domestic manufacturing and everything to do with not delivering

I feel your pain. I’ve been dealing with this since 2011. The thing that makes it even worse is subscriptions. You can’t switch app stores while you have subscriptions.

I lived in Germany. At least back then it was definitely a letter. They were not very good at it, though, and I received one for torrenting large open source software.

In the mid 90s we had an AT&T 3B2 that only had ed on it. We used it via DEC VT-102 terminals. It (ed) works but it’s not fun by any modern standards. Must’ve been amazing on a screen compared to printout from a teletype though! Side n

Agree. RabbitMQ is a Swiss Army knife that has a lot of available patterns, scales fairly well, and is very robust. If you don’t know what to choose, start with Rabbit. It will let you figure out which patterns you need and you probably won

First of all there is no comparison between car and aviation safety systems. And in aviation, many systems have both an electric and a hydraulically system so that they don’t share dependencies. Second, if this is intended for gasoline&#x2F

This is one system in the car that must have mechanical fallback. Yes there are a lot of systems already interacting with the hydraulics (servo assist, ABS, pumps, etc). But fundamentally you can stop the car if you push hard enough on the

Being a maintainer is mostly about people and organizing (wrangling), and some much, much smaller percentage about code. This role is not a place for AI any time soon.
