jinnah's thesis wa that having a separate state for muslims was necessary because hindu majoritarian politics would eventually turn on the muslim minority. haha what an incorrect doofus!!



Wouldn’t you say his rise is a direct result of the issues that the partition either created or elevated?

yeah i think so, but direct action day, pogroms, etc were all directly abetted by the british divide and rule policy. it worked, and in the absence of a strong communist movement partition was inevitable but it was handled in such a horrible way the effects haven't died down.

i still think things had mostly been settled by the late 70s after bangladesh had been created and kashmir was mostly reintegrated and flourishing at the time. the thing that blew everything apart was the soviet afghan war that flooded pakistan and the ISI with cash to rip kashmir wide open again and congress' turn to neoliberalism which gave the hindutva shitheads an opening and a path to power, which came to a head in the mid 2010s when the oligarchs decided to back them to the hilt

Nepal had a hindu monarchy that was overthrown because gyanendra wanted to do leftist massacres and the indian government took his ammo away in the mid oughts.

The rise of populist politic in different eras probably had relation to the widespread adaptation of the mass media format at the time. (radio in the 40s and facebook app on cheap $100 phones in the 10s). However which countries go full populist leaders depends on the domestic culture of the countries.

high performance computing is relevant to fields like energy and mineral exploration and development, weather and climate forecasting, the kind of nuclear weapons development that doesn't get you condemned like the dprk gets (simulation-based), complex robotics and ai stuff (has some kinda military applications in addition to tech economy scams), a variety of biology-related stuff (many things like proteins and sub-cellular structures are very complex relative to most molecules but can be reliably simulated given sufficient compute resources), and chip design itself relies heavily on simulation. strictly speaking if they get into a war the lack of chip parity will not cause them to fail, but if access to international computing supply chains can be cut off short of war, china will face a period of relatively slower development in key strategic scientific fields while it struggles to catch up. i don't think missiles or other weapons really rely on having the fanciest chips in them but their development involves a lot of workstation computers

yeah but how critical is smallness to computing for these applications? is heat dissipation an insurmountable barrier? can't you double or triple the number of chips you use and compete with computers that US or EU is using? or is it just that no matter how many 7nm chips you cram into a building-sized computer it can't compete with 3nm chips?

the advantages in terms of space and energy are multiplicative. you can build very big computers, yes, but it’s not a matter of double or triple the floor space, silicon, power, etc., but significantly larger multiples. the westerners would have the advantage in both how much they can spend and what they can get for their money. there are limits in that the speed of moving data around can become a hard limit to scaling but i don’t know enough to say what kind of workloads that’s a big deal for

china will never collapse purely for lack of computing power. if it costs several times more energy and time to do things they will be at a disadvantage in technological and scientific competition, in which speed and the ability to mobilize resources from the rest of the economy are always limiting factors. the stakes are not existential, but they may be determinative for great power competition

If we assume this scenario happens, then we have to assume counter-sanctions on the part of China, which will also be determinative for great power competition.

well I’m assuming China will keep developing but lag behind by a couple generations for the next decade or so, not that they'll be content to sit at 7nm forever

There was a flash flood in Queen, New York last year. Half of my building parking lot was flooded. My wife woke me up in the middle of the night and made me drive the car to higher ground. A Chinese immigrant family of 3 who was renting in a basement were drawned.

They were not the only whole family who were drowned in the same flood either. Interesting nobody in NY trying to outlaw the basement dwellers.

I remember after hurricane Sandy a bunch of people drowned in their basement apartments on Staten Island that was over 10 years ago. I had a friend that escaped by the skin of their teeth with her family as the water flooded into theirs

It's not just the knowledge, you need to control all aspects of the process and some of those require highly precise tools and equipment which only a few companies can make. Like you need the precision tools to make the precision tools to make the precision tools that make a small part of your chips. For sure China is developing home grown versions but it will take time to develop the entire manufacturing process.

And its not eve about talent, former co-ceo of SMIC for example was the r&d director at TSMC.

literally the only reason anyone in south korea cares is that it makes them look really bad internationally that they made no effort to solve the social problem that was widely referenced and discussed in the academy award winning 2019 film parasite no one else has made a famous movie about basement flooding so as far as everyones concerned its a distinct south korean ethnicism

CVX reportedly left out of South Korea’s 2023 Defense Budget

quote:

Dong-A Ilbo, a major South Korean newspaper, reported on August 26th that funding for CVX, the country’s aircraft carrier program, has been axed in the 2023 national defense budget.

According to the report, which has since been deleted, the tentative budget for 2023 makes no mention of CVX at all, effectively putting an end to the program for the foreseeable future. Other articles released by major domestic news outlets at around the same time did not specifically mention the budget itself, but still cast doubt on the program. Chosun Ilbo reported that CVX is facing a “reevaluation.”

This marks the latest development in what has become the most controversial weapons development program in recent history.

well it's good that the right-wing government of South Korea is shying away from wasteful weapons spendi... hold on

*touches earpiece* ... I'm sorry?

quote:

CVX was one of the signature acquisition programs of the previous administration under President Moon Jae-in. The program’s budget for 2022 was almost canceled, with the ruling and opposition parties unable to come to an agreement in the National Assembly, only to be revived unilaterally by the latter.

not your typical shoot’n cry tho. the protagonist eagerly joins the SS-inspired war criminals, helps torture and execute innocent people and really only starts crying when the war criminals want to kill him. compared to literally every other ‘police action’ documentary or movie it at least shows that the KNIL were committing war crimes
