Yeah it’s often overlooked that one of the main struggles have been local infrastructure and production to make African countries self-sufficient. And with over a decade of Chinese infrastructure like modern roads able to handle trucks being built, and removal of these tariffs. It opens the door to expand production and long term growth.

There are of course negative aspects involved, but it’s still a potential game changer when it comes to global trade and production.

Threatened? So they didn’t ID them.

The first comment worked as bait, but that last question is way too obvious.

Although just for fun:

Then Python is not a scripting language.

That is true. It is often used as one, but it was developed from the start as a general-purpose language.

Would you consider C to be more or less complicated than Perl?

You know about Python, Perl and C. You know the answer and you’re just trying to incense people.

Do you know what community you’re in? Do you want to start a war?

There is no clear definition because there is a lot of overlap, especially when you get into the details, but:

• Scripting languages are often considered to be very high level and can commonly run without compilation. Making them great to automate tasks or create a simplified interaction/abstraction layer to a more complex program.

• Programming languages usually have much lower level access, and by extension they tend to be more complicated. In exchange for that, you get much more control. Although the access varies from Assembly to languages a C programmer would consider “scripting”.

Although for every example, there is basically a counter example. Because programmers being who they are, see it as a challenge to do something with a language that others consider impossible or wrong.

For example, there are things like NodeOS, a “Lightweight operating system using Node.js as userspace.”

They got the data they wanted already.

Three months of civilian employees reporting on their tasks each week. They were literally mapping out the internal military structure of operations. And the media is glossing over how Russian IPs have tried to log into DOGE accounts with valid credentials.

Didn’t this give it away?:

… unlocking the full potential of Valve’s handheld device for cloud gaming.

The app is now available, and gamers can stream titles on the Steam Deck at up to 4K 60 frames per second …

An unbelievable amount of material thundered down into the valley

Yeah, watch the video if you haven’t. That was huge.

And it’s not over: The material is positioned such that it might block the river and flood the valley. So more people have been evacuated downstream.

Ishii Shiro is a prime example.

He was the head of Unit 731 and did things like live and unanesthetized vivisections on people, bioloogical weapons testing on children, etc… Which is among the milder things. The US made a deal for all his data, and he lived his last years in peace and anonymity as a free man. He actually worked for free as a local doctor for a period.

If you look up information about him in Japanese sources, most of it is apparently all about how was such a nice man who helped people, and basically that he did a little oopsie in the 40s.

Yes, the science was valuable,

That’s one of the worse parts, they didn’t really gain any of the knowledge they hoped for:

However, the information obtained was not of significant value, as the U.S. biological warfare program had surpassed the capabilities of Unit 731 by 1943.

No, you have to wait until traditional media like the evening news and print newspapers do it as well. Because the average boomer is still fed lies about the situation through those.

One thing he’s at least consistent on, is calling things “nasty” when they get to him personally.

“No one could have faked all this. Why would she have worked with me for three and a half years, never demanding anything?”

Now it might all be real, but there’s no way Lesley-Ann is this naive?

Of course he doesn’t want a deal, he wants bribes. It’s literally a racket.

In the US medicaid starts at 65, but you can get lucky and have workplace pension that start early. You only get “full retirement” with Social Security/state pension if you wait until 67 and many wait until then. Which seems similar to Denmark.

From what I remember he seem to mostly use it to change parameters and intiate things with voice commands. At least in the movies.

How much longer until we have to provide our ID or biometrics to use the Internet or apps?

That’s already a thing in some places.

In parts of Europe you have to “prove” that you’re over 18 to watch videos that are age restricted on youtube. By doing something like a $0 credit card purchase on your google account.

And Discord has been talking about facial reckognition age verification in the UK over their new “sensitive content” regulation. So it would block that content if not approved via that or other thing(like digital purchase or national ID).

Yeah this is bad but this kind of stuff is the thing that can only be done once. Very much like the Unilateral SWIFT BAN on Russia. This prompted all of countries in the world to create an alternative and so they did, this case is the same thing. It might take some time but countries will find a way.

I get that is what your gornment told you, but it literally is not true and there are plenty of sources to back that up.

Russia, on their own, started developing SPFS almost a decade before they were banned, because they were threatened with a ban in 2014 if they didn’t stop invading more after Crimea. So when they invaded again they were rightfully banned.

The SPFS functions with some banks covering about 15 countries, hoping for 20 soon. SWIFT is still happily used by over 200 countries.
