That's from a European perspective. To me, they all smoke a lot. Shockingly so when one is used to the US. There are regional differences, but it's more like comparing the size of Lake Constance to Lake Superior: both are huge.
Japan's F-15 would be no match to the Chinese J-15, which is like half a generation more advanced. The outcome of tit-for-tat would be highly one sided. The F-15 couldn't lock on to the Chinese jet as far as the J-15, nor could its missiles shoot as far.
Let's not lose our heads here. This did not occur over Japanese airspace. No need to escalate directly to kinetic action.
I feel bad for Taiwanese politicians. They can't afford to provoke a major tantrum from Trump. They still need to purchase American arms, even if the US can't be counted on to help in an invasion. Some performative flattery and groveling might be in order. If it was me, I'd swallow my pride and cite the impossibility of moving entire chip production chains instead.
Russian soldiers come from poor regions: Siberia, the Far East, Kalmykia, etc. To many poor recruits the pay far exceeds anything they could get in civilian life. It's the same strategy as the US military: go to impoverished states and get those desperate poor schmucks to fight and die for you.
Russia has expanded the draft and seemingly can't count on volunteers as much as before. So the situation may change in the future.
North Korea was aligned with the Soviet Union after the Sino-Soviet split. All China needs is a buffer state with the United States and its forces stationed in SK, but it wasn't interested in turning NK into a vassal state after the Soviet collapse. In short, it doesn't have as much pull as people might assume, and it's none too interested in intervention.
In practice, it's impossible to determine the purpose of purchases. If someone talks about their experience of buying from a dealer without further context, you'd have to narc. Or, you open yourself up to legal liabilities.
Besides, people buy on behalf of others all the time. People share with others. Substance use is often not a solitary activity. This law would create a situation where it's risky for you if you do not narc every time.
WTF? We're gonna be required to narc on people struggling with addiction now, even if they're trying to quit? That's bad for everyone involved. I sure won't be hosting nothing in the US again if this passes.
More flexibility on flight stopovers in China. If you are going somewhere else, China would probably like for you to spend some of your money in a Chinese city. I'm guessing 10 days is the duration because flights occasionally get canceled or delayed. A lot more people would need to apply to extend their visas on stopovers if it was only like 3 days.
Not to cause any "offence", but I think that "manoeuvre" would cause misspellings for you if you need to write something in American English, say a paper or a formal document. Best double check your spell checker locale, and make sure your words aren't incorrectly "labelled" as you "centre" your text.
Having the default spell check as en_ca would be a problem through. I'd have an "axe" to grind in this case, as I challenge the "honour" of hunspell. I usually just manually choose metric units and a 24 hour clock on top of en_US.
Chinese phonology doesn't allow for the pronunciation of "app", for example. I see a lot of Chinese people spelling it as "APP", and pronouncing it accordingly. It's kinda funny to me, since the Mandarin word "yingyong" is only two syllables. "APP" just seems more cumbersome by all account, yet it has become inexplicably popular.
That's very good. Once I wanted to compile Firefox myself for some reason I no longer remember, but their Mercurial-based system was a hassle to work with. Most of us are already familiar with git. So, I know I'm going to be more inclined to make code contributions now that it uses git.
Just wish they could've chosen another git-based option like Codeberg, or even an internally-hosted server. I'm rather wary of GitHub/Microsoft swallowing up so many open source projects.
The paper was published by IEEE and with professors as co-authors. Only the second author is a student. And I wouldn't dismiss it out of hand like that because of a magazine article. Students come up with breakthroughs all the time.
The paper itself says it disproves Yao's conjecture. I personally plan to implement and benchmark this because the results seem so good. It could be another fibonacci heap situation, but maybe not. Hash tables are so widely used, that it might even be worthwhile to make special hardware to use this on servers, if our current computer architecture is only thing that holds back the performance.

Yeah.. Maybe ask the good folks of Okinawa whether they have ever agreed to American military bases.

I'm stealing your idea.

I am here with you. Though you're far away, I am here to stay.
Etc. And so forth

Wait, it knows? Is Windows defender developing self-awareness before LLMs?

IBM profiting from a genocide?? Say it ain't so!
I considered it, but the specs were too low. Ended up choosing a Google Pixel instead.
