1. That I see it as payback for the KMT losing the civil war. 2. Yeah, dunno about that, who will do what exactly to China? I also think that, since you mentioned it, Japan would intervene, China will pretty much use it…
I maybe missing something, but it feels bonkers to me of why with all the MIRVs they have on hundreds of nukes they do not feel the need to carpet bomb Ukraine with them.
Maybe I'm dumb, but what good are they then if you cannot use them to annihilate your enemy?
Nuking all the major population centers would pretty much destroy the ability of Ukraine to manufacture weapons in any meaningful number and it would also deprive its army of any new soldiers, no reinforcements, no food…
The internet never forgets: you go and find the first speech about why the war was started and look at the outcome. You can then judge for yourself if the war was won or lost. Obviously with all its nuances.
Retaliate for what? They wouldn't be attacked. That's the thing I don't understand: why would they try to nuke Moscow if they weren't the ones attacked? And would they risk their own demise (considering the imbalance in…
All countries are affected, not just China.
If you flatten all of them and kill the residents, you will win the war. The question is just how far are you willing to go, not the lack of capacity to do so.
I get the sarcasm, but besides the US that for whatever reason might retaliate with nukes, who else? And would they risk it just because?

Russia could end the war instantly with a few nukes if it wanted to. I don't get it why it hasn't done that yet. Pride?
> Taiwan has a real threat, and if they can build defenses that mean China faces a years-long war, there probably won't be one. China could just bomb Taiwan into submission if it chooses to. I don't think it is a…
In Taiwan's case, the question is how does China see the reunification. It could be a naval blockade until Taiwan runs out of food/fuel/medicines and they surrender. Or it could be "we will take the island no matter…
As a "sitting on my couch" war expert, I think future combat should be country level semi-organized guerrilla combat style. When every structure, forest etc. tries to kill you, it might changed the adversary's opinion…
I got one this year with the Go code. Never actually thought it is legit code, just some random stuff.
There was a thread about it, and Ayden will not talk to you if you sell less than $5mm/yr using online payments.
And this is HN worthy news because...?
Because at some point you have to debug stuff. And JSON is easier to read than XML to figure out where a problem might be.
Monsanto all over again.
E911 is mandatory in cars in a lot of countries. So you have it or not, even if it not used for data transfers.
Yes. But in my car the downside is that it does not tell which wheel has a problem, just a generice message: check tyre pressure. Real TPMS sensors inside the wheel give much more accurate information.
I don't think they can. The infotainment is outsourced to who knows where and those people develop based on specs sent by the manufacturer: as cheap as possible and as fast as possible. Unless you actually spend time…

A 12K BTU mini-split system is about 300EUR. How is this unaffordable for most people? Even an 18K unit is about 500-600EUR.
