I'm just starting to learn about all this stuff, but iirc thr game of Go is famously "hot". Also I will emphasize thats when talking about "games", usually what is meant is a game position. What spe cific game you are playing isn't too important as it can be shown that some positions in different games are equivalent.

Exactly this video made me read more into this topic, I'm currently reading winning ways and lessons in play simultaneously. It's quite fun! I've just gotten started and am looking forward for what's left.

As I've written in another comment here, a great example of a number-y field which is not totally ordered is Games ⊂ Surreal Numbers ⊂ ℝ. There you have certain "numbers" which can can confused with (read incomparable) whole intervals of numbers. Games are really cool :)

Reminds me of the concept of games in combinatorial game theory, they are a superset of surreal numbers (which are themselves a superset of the real numbers) in which the definition of the surreal numbers is loosened in a way which looses the property of they being totally ordered. This creates games (read weird numbers) which can be "confused with" or "fuzzy" with other numbers, the simplest example is * (star) which is confused with 0, i.e. not bigger or smaller than it, it's a fuzzy cloud around zero (notated 0║*). More complex games called switches can be confused with bigger intervals of numbers and are considered "hot". By creating numbers from switches you can create even more interesting hot games.

One thing I really don't unserstand is how bun already reached stability with it's 1.0 release (https://bun.sh/blog/bun-v1.0) while being written in Zig, which still hasn't reached it's 1.0 release.

Actually it seems according to the issue that TigerBeetle (one of the bigger zig projects out there) noticed this issue [1]. It's also on their issue tracker [2].

One need not forget that Israel too has no interest in an all out conflict. Also the syrian attack iirc was to prevent Iran's foreign minister from landing there.

Everyone's (except maybe Iran's) hope is that this conflict does not escalate any more.

First of all, I am biased to my opinions so take everything I say eith a grain of salt.

Now, you need to divide your concept of thr Palestinian people to (at least) 2 groups or factions, those that live in Gaza and those that live in the west bank. The major difference between these groups is that Israel is the sovereign over the West Bank but disengaged from Gaza about 18 years ago and since it's disengagement, terrorist groups like Hamas have taken control of the Gaza strip[1]. One could have a long conversation about human rights issues in the West Bank but what is happening in Gaza right now isn't oppression, it's a war. You could point out Israel's blockade of Gaza as a form of oppression but it's just a way for Israel to prevent Hamas from accumulating massive amounts of weapons from certain foreign actors[2]. The really terrible thing ia that Hamas's infrastructure is so deeply linked and interleaved with civilian life it's impossible to fight them effectively without hurting civilians (Israel has some measures to attempt to do that[3] but everything has it's limits). Hamas isn't interested in peace and will slaighter their way to victory whatever happens, they are actively hurting both Gaza and Israeli civilians as we recently observed with the cruel massacre. The world will be better without Hamas, it's heartbreaking it has to happen this way.

In my opinion you shouldn't be worried about that possibility, the presence of the US in the middle east right now is probably just to deter other parties from escalating the conflict. The US has no interest and no intent for entering Gaza, Israel has the resources to deal with Hamas on it's own.

One of the most important parts of this conflict I think which most people here aren't talking about ia the geopolitics in the middle east. Most of this is still just a big old proxy war spear-headed by Iran. All the big terrorist groups and actors in the region wheather it be Gaza-based terror groups like Hamas or Lebanon's Hezbollah are funded and controlled by Iran.

There's a whole Wikipedia page on it, actually: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Israel_proxy_co...
