I try very hard to not have an opinion, since I know that I know very little. But the person didn't ask for my opinion, just "an argument." Things are rarely as simple as good and evil. But if you want an argument against cer

Sure, just imagine if Germany had gotten nukes first. Would they have never used them again? How many countries, when given damn near absolute power, wouldn't have used it to directly conquer?

But if you forget to change it back you may break other invariants, right? Also, what about threads or fibers? I would guess it is thread-local but not fiber-local?

I don't know, but almost everything is more complicated than people often make it out to be. Unless you'd like to spend 40+ hours/days/years researching it, you're probably better off trying to be more laid back.

AirBnB has created a prisoner's dilemma review process. If you have a fairly bad host, but don't leave a bad review and they do, you are penalized by not having any appeal. I wonder if the dilemma is on both sides (I think it is),

Funny. However, I find some assumptions suspect. Unlike rockets, donkeys can consume fuel en-route by grazing. Armies can also consume fuel by hunting, plundering and being "quartered" by their own people. You can make "suppl

Also, I somehow hadn't seen the second half of your comments (was helping a toddler fall back to sleep). I am a fan of what forth can do, but I find the language lacking. With a tiny bit of total code (i.e. 2-3 thousand lines) I'v

It would, but I don't see it as feasible. Also, I have a thing about incentives, and if the goal is to make it automated then it's probably not going to be understandable. Whereas if the goal is to make it understandable then ther

I would LOVE any thoughts you had on Civboot.org, it sounds like you have a good high level of what roadmap and the general technologies thag would need to be put in place to make it possible.

Yes, I was definitely inspired by them. However, OsE is about building a village toolkit, but has no path to building a (minimalist) computer chip or computer software which can run on that chip. Last I checked they use full CAD software, d
