Same here. Are you just using a skill or something else. Beyond direct CLI calls to each other, I’m using contextify to share past sessions between them.
Whether we like it or not, due to crashing birth rates worldwide; we will need robots to make up for missing adults.
Unfortunately, it’s not as easy as incentivizing people to have children because accounting for socioeconomic changes (like birth control and affordability), it’s highly likely that industrial pollutants like heavy metals and endocrine disruptors like BPA are likely the main culprits when even developing countries are seeing low fertility.
It is very hard to disentangle plastic from our food and drink
1. The issue is that most people and organizations do not care about maintenance. Maintenance doesn’t get you the promotion, accolades, or immediate quarterly revenue because great maintenance tends to be invisible.
2. This is exacerbated by the lack of loyalty people have towards their organizations because their orgs don’t value or reward loyalty. That’s because leadership doesnt care about the long term view because of item #1. Hence, everyone is only doing short 1 - 4 year stints in order to get meaningful raises
3. The exceptions in the private sector are businesses that not publicly traded.
4. Even then, very few people care about quality that no one else can see
An extradition treaty is just a formalized process for extradition, it doesn’t prevent countries from extraditing someone when they want to. China doesn’t extradite Chinese nationals as a matter of principle, but they’ll extradite other people to the US if it’s politically expedient.
China absolutely could do something if they wanted to. No treaty just means they aren't obligated to "do something", not that they can't. For example, if the US wanted to reinstate the $800 no tariff policy in exchange for Vernon, I guarantee you they'd arrest him and turn him over.
I can't find any reference to Vernon's citizenship, ie if he is a Chinese citizen or not. Which would change the math.
That was a huge difficult process for Canada to get them back. The US isn't going to waste that sort of diplomatic currency just to arrest a medium tier white collar criminal. They will wait it out to see if he ever tries to leave and nab him.
Absolutely. It would be insane for the US to offer my specific example. I'm just making the point that China (and Russia, but I didn't give an example) can do something. Their hands aren't tied.
Kinda wrong. The US and Russia have had a Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty since 2002 and the US and China have a similar agreement dating back to 2001.
Just recently, the US and China had repatriated fugitives to each other, despite having no extradition treaty. No extradition treaty does not mean transferring suspects is impossible.
> At the Grand Entrepôt Dramatique, plays are assembled like manufactured goods. One clerk handles expositions, another denouements, another entrances and exits. There is a clerk for rhyming couplets, a clerk for punch lines, a Department of Puns and a central office of jokes. Art has survived as an assembly line.
While his predictions about technology were way more accurate for the 1960s (his intended target), his predictions about society and culture are prescient for the 2020's with the advent of generative AI
> "With Montaigne and maybe Rabelais it was What Do I Know? In the nineteenth century it was What Does It Matter to Me? And nowadays we say: How Much Does It Earn?"
For me, this also summarizes the introduction of the Internet to the masses, all the way to the present day.
This is eerily reminiscent of scriptwriting guides like Save the Cat with templates for story beats to the minute. I hear that Hollywood loves this kind of stuff...
> China calls its government a State Council, Russia calls theirs a Duma,
Going with your example, the State Council or CCP only exists in name only. Xi, the emperor, is the government now just like Putin is the government for Russia. We might be puppeteered by corporations, but at least it's still a group of people who need consensus vs one flawed, megalomaniacal dictator - at least for now
