I was really hoping someone would catch this. I'm glad someone else was also paying attention in biology

That's... huh...

Hey!!! Physicists!!! Can we get your input???

(Unless you're a physicist, in which case... fuck)

That's really cool. I figured it could obviously be done with fission, but I didn't think we could just strip protons out of a nucleus. Cool share

This. I work at a medical computer vision company, and our system performs better, on average, than radiologists.

It still needs a human to catch the weird edge cases, but studies show humans plus our model have a super high accuracy rate and speed. It's perfect because there's a global radiologist shortage, so helping the radiologists we have go faster can save a lot of lives.

But people are bad at nuance. All AI is like LLMs -_-

Well, I'm glad you're here, friend :D

"Let me complain about how incredibly evil something is and then do nothing about it" is what I'm getting out of this. If the rest of us could figure it out, why couldn't you?

You wanna cite your sources for that? Every time I see nice images from NK, there's no people. Contrast that with Seoul, where I can't get away from people 😅

Why take this personally...? There are so many ways to perceive this:

• Maybe the reader is bi
• Maybe the reader would get a boost knowing someone would be into them, even if they're not into that kind of person
• Maybe the reader just finds the image or concept hilarious

Like... why did you think this was targeting you?

That's gnarly. But thank you for your labor in supporting these communities. We love you for it

I've worked with Swarm in a startup setting. It was an absolute nightmare. We eventually gave up and moved to Kubernetes.

That said, your use case does sound simpler. As I recall, we had to set up service discovery (with Hashicorp Consul) and secret management (with Hashicorp Vault) ourselves. I believe we also used Traefik for load balancing. There were other components as well, but I don't remember it all. This was over 5 years ago, though.

The difficulty wasn't configuring each piece but getting them to work together. There was also the time burned learning all the different tools. Kubernetes is great because everything is meant to work together.

But if it's just two machines with separate configuration, do you even need orchestration? Is there a lot of overhead to just manage them individually?

Unfortunately, it was too long ago to remember the details of differences between compose and swarm. I do remember it was a very trivial conversion.

I love this. Thank you

From the Wikipedia article on Russia's playbook: "Foundations of Geopolitics"

Ukraine (except Western Ukraine) should be annexed by Russia because "Ukraine as a state has no geopolitical meaning, no particular cultural import or universal significance, no geographic uniqueness, no ethnic exclusiveness, its certain territorial ambitions represents an enormous danger for all of Eurasia and, without resolving the Ukrainian problem, it is in general senseless to speak about continental politics". Ukraine should not be allowed to remain independent, unless it is cordon sanitaire, which would be inadmissible according to Western political standards. As mentioned, Western Ukraine (comprising the regions of Volynia, Galicia, and Transcarpathia), considering its Catholic-majority population, are permitted to form an independent federation of Western Ukraine but should not be under Atlanticist control.

MechWarrior 2: 31st Century Combat

It had an archive in the game. It detailed the social structure, military structure, customs, and history of the Clans, which you play as a member of, from an outside perspective. I was only 8, but I read through the whole thing, end-to-end. I put an album of it on Facebook for posterity when I was in high school.

I decided I wanted to be like them when I read it. I have a much better understanding of them now, and I do not agree with everything. The concepts behind some core tenants still stand for me. Individuals are valued within the context of the Clan. One's value is based on their contribution to society, but society must value them in order to expect their contribution. If a leader acts in their own interest and not that of the Clan, their subordinates are obligated to challenge them. If the conflict stands, they face in a Circle of Equals. Generally, personal disputes are delayed and adjudicated, but there is a Trial of Grievance if the parties can conduct if they cannot delay. In the real world, I translate these to a value in community, a mandate to not tolerate poor leadership, and good practice in letting cooldown time followed by direct dispute resolve conflict.

Of course, there are questionable things. A caste system, though some Clans allow more mobility than others. Eugenics based on combat prowess for the warrior caste. Promotion by combat for the warrior caste. Poor military strategy based on the concept of honor.

I still consider myself a Clanner, to some degree. Sometimes I try to see if others took it as much to heart as I did, but I am afraid of rejection. I do not know if I could pass various Trials. I know I am too old, now, or at the very least, approaching that. Maybe someday, I will find other children of Kerensky.

In addition, the Secretary of Defense may employ any other members of the regular Armed Forces as necessary to augment and support the protection of Federal functions and property in any number determined appropriate in his discretion.

As I understand, this is not a thing the regular Armed Forces can do, correct? I thought that only the National Guard could conduct non-training operations on US soil and/or against US citizens, barring an invasion or secession. Does anyone know more than me about this?

No. I don't want to transpile. I don't want a bundle. I want a simple site that works in the browser. I want to serve it as a static site. I don't want a build step. I don't want node_modules. I want to code using the language targeted for the platform without any other nonsense.

Javascript is cancer. Fucking left pad?! How the fuck did we let that happen? What is this insane fucking compulsion to have libraries for two lines of code? To need configuration after configuration just to run fucking hello world with types and linting?

No, fuck Typescript. Microsoft owns enough. They own where you store your code. They own your IDE. They might own your operating system. Too much in one place. They don't need to own the language I use, too.

"Let's use a proprietary improvement to fix the standard that should have not sucked in the first place" is why we can't have nice things.

No.

Why?

No one said anything about pulling SEA into a war. No one said anything about Europe forcing SEA like colonizers. Shit has changed in the past few decades.

NATO is a mutual defense pact. He's just talking about setting up a similar defense pact in SEA and East Asia.

As mentioned, SEA is relevant because those nations have the potential to be China's Ukraine.

SEA is likely to be open to some kind of mutual defense pact, as China has been testing borders for a long time, especially in the South China Sea. I believe the only reason they haven't is because of smaller military, trade relations with China, and the unlikely support of East Asia. East Asia looks down on SEA. If Europe engages in more trade, offers military support, and mediates improved relations between SEA and East Asia, I think a mutual defense pact is all but given. That said, the trade and military support are a tall order.

In any case, this is basically reciprocal action. See the comment about dogs shitting in yards.

You're making assumptions. Fuck no. What's happening is Gaza is some of the stupidest ape-brain shit we've ever done. So chill out, my dude.

But this lust for vengeance is how Israel and Hamas continued escalating shit. Not a rational brain anywhere in that mess. "They hurt people, so I want to hurt them" is moronic. "They hurt people, so how do I stop them" is how we should be thinking.

I didn't know there was a term for this! Thank you! I try to convey this concept all the time, especially for intelligence and skills, so having a word for it is immensely helpful.

What is the purpose of punishment? To reform behavior? Or to make you feel better?

You can claim justice, but in this case, that's just making you feel better. You want to hurt someone because they hurt others. That's how we've had never-ending wars. We as a species need to grow past this
