Understanding is the only way to solve any kind of problem

Empathy. People criticizing each other often make the same "mistakes" that are nothing but normal human behaviour. Once you understand that we are all pretty much equal, you start realizing that most bad things are sistematic. There are few bad people, most people are quite nice and forced (or taught) to behave badly

Ten rules that poor people must follow

Very common before 2010. As far as I know the fm decoder was integrated in the SoC itself (at least it is so in modern SoCs), so it's not even that demanding on the design. Probably not a requested feature, which is a bit sad

You are probably right. Still, I guess China would count on pubblic perception being against fighting for different foreign countries at the same time. People don't like war and if you want to start a war you want to make sure the allies of your enemies are as less likely as possible to intervene. Of course that does not consider the incredible strategic importance of Taiwan

You forgot Taiwan. As Zipitidew said below, China is happy that NATO is sending so much material to Ukraine that they cannot send to Taiwan in the event of an invasion. My guess is they are not ready yet, otherwise the start of the war in ukraine and in Israel would have both been good moments to start their, when everyone is occupied with other affairs.

17.6m was probably the maximum allowed width, but it was possible to pass through with bigger ships, but my guess is that insurance companies would not like it very much

So, assuming the guidance system worked as expected, the bomb was guided to that particular house right?

Agree. She fucked up. She made a promise she did not want to honor and didn't have to maturity to do anything other than getting so drunk she wouldn't care

That's right. We theorized the effects shortly after the first coal power plant, and we have observed the effects for a century now. Yet the response has been minimal, to say the least

That's why I'm saying that a single invention that changed the world is not something you can easily find anymore.
