I don't think that has stopped anything so far, but I appreciate your optimism.

It all sounds great. Which government? Is it a different regime? If not, why would the US concede?

This is just completely false. There are multiple countries capable of killing their own by those numbers. All of them are equally disgusting, and should all be held accountable.

How many changes to production systems does Cloudflare make throughout a day? Are they a part of any change management process? That would be the first place I would check after a random outage, recent changes.

>It assessed the lab theory as "likely", although it did not have definitive proof.

Correlation does not equal causation my friend.

Plenty of people were able to talk about lab leak conspiracies. That is why we are still debating it today.

Because that is a bold claim to make. There is no proof of a lab leak and evidence leads to the wet market as the source. There is a debate out there for 100k to prove this. Check it out.

I can definitely understand that. I just have a hard time justifying the value of learning this way at scale. Just the energy costs alone are out of hand.

I think the primary difference would be they didn't waste billions of dollars in their research.

I just can't get over how gleeful the author sounds in wasting compute on "an often unreasonable amount of work to search the internet and figure out an answer."

Is that the goal? Send this thing off on a wild goose chase, and hope it comes back with the right answer no matter the cost?

I agree with that point. However, I don’t believe Netanyahu or the Israeli government glorify the death of their own people.

It’s not justifying killing civilians. It is justified for Israel to attempt to get their kidnapped citizens back. Hamas could minimize this, but you and I both know that maximizing Palestinian death is their preference.

I know he likes to insinuate that, but it’s simply not true.

While you are correct it wasn’t a war, but neither is this technically.
