有感于乌克兰的被背叛、墙内国人的被玩弄……若衡量于普世价值,则习包子拉低了中国人下限,普丁丁拉低了俄国人下限,川懂王拉低了美国人的下限,甚至说,川懂王也捎带拉低了欧洲人的下限――想想欧洲极右的崛起吧。
当福山提出“历史的终结”时,他应该没料到世界地缘政治会堕落到民主、极权这斗争双方沦为万事皆可交易的勾结对手,以致“中国策应俄罗斯”、“美国沦为俄罗斯帮凶”、“俄美中携手霸凌“、”欧洲心有余而力不足“的境地,而比政治人物卑劣化更危险的,是世界范围内民意的“下限(被)拉低“――这与前文,似成循环。
悲观主义者怎么会无视最严重的已成型的厄尔尼诺现象呢?同时川懂王仍说气候变暖是骗局。
这天灾人祸叠加,真是亡天下的模样。
世界会变得更好吗?墙内句式往往会用那个“更”字,以示委婉,现在,这“更”字,应该去掉了。
会如气候那般“不可逆”么?

The Foundations Of Chemical Kinetics by E. N. Yeremin

This textbook has emerged from the lectures on chemical kinetics given by the author for more than 15 years to chemistry students at Moscow State University as part of a general course in physical chemistry. Much space in the book is devoted to the fundamental concepts, and therefore it may serve as an elementary textbook. On the other hand, the book provides a more detailed treatment of some theoretical problems…

The short-story collection "Laika's Ghost" by @KarlSchroeder was a terrific read!

There are so many ideas raised that I would like to explore further:

Person of Interest, S5E1,2016
"[An AI] that can think 100,000 times faster than the smartest human is automatically a potential threat.

[It is] foolish to imagine that we had the means to control it.

[If it] ever saw us as a threat, it could lead to the extinction of mankind."
