Sure... Their anger will be directed at Putin, not at who actually imposed those sanctions.
I am worried that these sanctions will make them band together and support Putin even more.
And then what? They'll go to war even harder? And if Putin is such a good leader, why doesn't he just have Russia produce alternatives to the goods and services under sanctions?
The old status quo without sanctions got the world into the current situation. Why would keeping it the same fix it?
One could also make the opposite case for your logic: I am worried that without sanctions, people will see Putin as a strong leader, and as such hand together and support him even more.
We are entering the era of cyber-warfare, nation-state counter hacking, software and hardware sabotage, underground black and grey markets for both hardware and software.
We have entered that territory at least 10 years ago.
The rest I agree with. But I also think this is in fact the right move: you need to create pressure that hurts both the leadership and the people.
Qualcomm paying as much as other licensees should be preferable to Qualcomm than bankruptcy.
Not saying this is wrong, but where do you get it from? The article just states that ARM considers Qualcomm's acquisition of Nuvia a breach of license. Both companies held ARM licenses before. What's the issue with such a purchase?
Unfortunately, I think most of the users here have no insight into every day Chinese life - myself included... in fact if not from your post, I would have had no idea this is a thing.
Anyhow, this is disgusting behavior, and I can't really rationalize it.
Though for a lot of people, the source of grievance is pretty abstract. They could be victims of the system, and taking it revenge in that is difficult.
Oh, this wasn't to take from his point, I didn't even read your comment in the first place. Hilarious reply though. It just triggered another pet peeve of mine
To add to this, Potemkin Buster is a normal move that can be performed at any time on a standing opponent, while Heavenly Potemkin Buster is a super move (meaning it requires a resource to perform) that can only be performed on airborne opponents.
I haven't encountered systemd bugs in NixOS yet. Doesn't mean they don't exist - but I can't confirm the issue.
I run everything on NixOS nowadays and I do think that all of this makes sense, whether the implementation is the best I can't judge.
Just wanted to make sure my statement wasn't a criticism on NixOS, the maintainers do a great job. It's rather taking a jab at the "boring" statement.
Nowadays if I want declarative configuration, I just cram everything into docker containers and write a huge docker-compose.yml for everything that I want to run.
Docker compose is imperative though ;) (if that actually matters is up for debate) - fun fact nix allows you to build containers very easily.
I love how you can set up SSL certificates for nginx with autorenewal just by switching it on in configuration.nix.
How well this all goes together is really one of the strongest points of nix and NixOS. Though just for manageability, I personally wouldn't put this into configuration.nix, but rather into a file dedicated to the respective service.
NixOS "is boring and iust works" until you want to do something fancy a module author didn't anticipate and suddenly you find yourself defining functions that use genAttrs on some lists imported from JSON files
