People routinely - well, at least every few months - shoot up US schools. They are radicalized online. There is a common pattern to the radicalization. However, it's ""forbidden"" to point that out or suggest restricting the supply of firearms to internal enemies of the US in any way.
Americans don't need any encouragement from foreign powers to do that. Congress has seen fit to keep letting it happen by pointing to ancient scripture about the right to develop one's own organized militia....
Difficult to be sure what would happen in a counter factual universe without foreign interference.
We do know that Russia et al sow division online as part of their anti western efforts, a strategy detailed in their "Foundations of Geopolitics" manual.
Someone commented, and I paraphrase poorly, "Imagine if Russia didn't influence the voters in 2016; all the racism and bigotry in the USA would disappear!"...
That reminds me of an interaction I had with a foreign exchange intern at my uni. I was working in an organization that organized these exchanges and I was giving him the orientation on his first day, including introducing him to his employer. The employer wanted him to write an email to some other person in the company, and he 1st wrote it with no caps n txtspeak, and when he was done he went back through it so it would have proper sentences...
If you want something to be clear you need to take time to re-read and revise it. If you really want to be sure there needs to be a full day between writing and revision (otherwise you will read what you meant to write, not what you actually wrote). For a presumably non-native speaker I expect he needed that extra effort.
Technically I should wait a day to hey the reply button here. I don't see anything wrong with this post now, but it is a reasonable bet that there is something that someone else sees.
Haha, yeah. I was face palming some obvious typos in an important email earlier. Even after reading it four times. I find this helps in writing music as well. I come back a day later and so many things stick out that my brain would just gloss over.
If I had to put money on it, I'd bet on this regime continuing to ignore the rule of law and illegally remaining in power, until some insurrection... Yes I'm talking about the MAGA regime. They're already ignoring so many laws and court orders...
Seems like this is something Trump can be thanked for: showing Europeans how American companies are so eager to please him and how dependency on US tech can be very harmful.
Don't forget the Google paid $1 million to have a front row seat for their CEO at the Trump inauguration...
Oh look at you, how easy for you to demand of others that they put themselves in danger before you deem them worthy of protection. "You must have proof you've been arrested by Putin's police before we let you in here!". So they must risk the chance of immediate imprisonment in a freezing Siberian dungeon before you open your generous doors...
And graduates working for the Belarussian state, why is that acceptable and not considered as "conspiring with the war criminals" in your eyes? What other barriers are there that you have in your mind we don't know about, for someone who's worked as expected, and fled the country afterwards?
This page (1) reports 9 stops (between start and destination):
> The plane took off – for the 1st leg of the flight from Amsterdam to Batavia – on 30 April. The schedule: Budapest 30 April, Athens 1 May, Cairo 2 May, Baghdad 3 May, Jask 4 May, Jodhpur 5 May, Calcutta 6 May, Tavoy 7 May, Medan 8 May and arriving in Batavia on 9 May.
This page(2) claims a max speed of 190km/h. Budapest to Athens is 1130 km apart, so if the plane was flying around 150km/h, it's a 7 hour trip for that segment. Ouch. At least the passengers probably had a nice dinner and slept every night in a nice hotel...
An Instagram video I saw (yeah I know, great source) said that the idea is to cut off oil supply to China, which was getting it from Venezuela and Iran. That the 2 events are connected is new to me, and it's surprising considering the Trump regime acts seemingly more like a chicken with its head cut off.
But maybe it's all in service to Putin, who will now get to fill his war chest with the profits of the high-priced oil he can sell to China, and India...
I wonder how much chaos a minute that only has 59 seconds would cause. Measurements would be off by that missing second (e.g. a pipeline delivering fuel at 60 liters/minute would surprisingly only have 59 liters in that minute..).
Nobody should be using an API like time(2) or clock_gettime(2)+CLOCK_REALTIME to measure event durations with sub-second precision or accuracy, especially when controlling mechanical equipment. And I'd be absolutely surprised if anybody was when controlling equipment, at least in a regulated industry.
On unix this is what CLOCK_MONOTONIC is for; for one thing, the real-time clock can be reset at any time. Technically even CLOCK_MONOTONIC could jump forward. Real-time embedded systems either provide other timing APIs, or make additional guarantees about CLOCK_MONOTONIC's behavior.
I feel like most of us don't know what we're actually doing when we do t2-t1 to get a duration. Feels like it'd be in a lot of places and a negative number is going to cause havoc. Even worse if it's an unsigned int and you roll over to some massive duration.
Well, ~1 hour after the race: it got the bets correct. But it didn't expect that Piastri would crash on the way to the grid (of course, we haven't invented a future-seeing AI yet ;) ).
But this is very voodoo, it's asking 3 black boxes "What do you think", they answer, but you probably can't see their reasoning. Or can you?
