It's quite a shame considering that Lenin and the Bolsheviks are an important part of Finnish independence.

Following a racially-motivated stabbing of a 12 year old girl at a shopping center in Oulu, Finland last week, a teenage boy stabbed a "foreign-looking" man at the same shopping center in a copy-cat attack. The injuries are not life-threatening, and the boy can be tried criminally since he is over the age of 15.

I have to ask, why is this article posted? It's a top journalist at CNN. Why did the state dept allow access to the camp? Why now during an election year?

US is reviewing risks of China's use of RISC-V chip technologyBy Stephen Nellis April 24, 20241:30 AM GMT+3

A Chinese flag is displayed next to a "Made in China" sign seen on a printed circuit board with semiconductor chips, in this illustration picture taken February 17, 2023.

REUTERS/Florence April 23 (Reuters) - The U.S. Department of Commerce is reviewing the national security implications of China's work in open-source RISC-V chip technology, according to a letter sent to U.S. lawmakers.

RISC-V, pronounced "risk five," competes with proprietary technology from British semiconductor and software design company Arm Holdings (O9Ty.F), opens new tab. It can be used as a key part of anything from a smartphone chip to advanced processors for artificial intelligence.

The technology is being used by major Chinese tech firms such as Alibaba Group Holding (9988.HK), opens new tab and has become a new front in the strategic competition over advanced chip technology between the U.S. and China.

In November, 18 U.S. lawmakers from both houses of Congress pressed the Biden administration for its plans to prevent China "from achieving dominance in ... RISC-V technology and leveraging that dominance at the expense of U.S. national and economic security."

In a letter last week to the lawmakers that was seen by Reuters on Tuesday, the Commerce Department said it is "working to review potential risks and assess whether there are appropriate actions under Commerce authorities that could effectively address any potential concerns."

But the Commerce Department also noted that it would need to tread carefully to avoid harming U.S. companies that are part of international groups working on RISC-V technology. Previous controls on transferring 5G technology to China created roadblocks for U.S. firms working in international standards bodies where China was also a participant, risking U.S. leadership in the field.

Really? That's the whole article? I was waiting for some kind of punch line, but they really just wrote "RISC-V bad because China bad. China making computers is evil." Gotta love the direction these AI-generated articles are leading toward.

I'm in Moscow for a few days, any recommendations for places to check out? Red Square is closed, and the weather is beautiful so I'll check the beautiful metro stations later. (Kievskaya was the most beautiful so far)

Hello, I would like to file a complaint about a tweet endorsing genocide by Professor Seth Crosby in your Department of Genetics. I will quote the tweet here in case it is deleted.

Another user wrote, "Israel is engaged in the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians." To which Prof. Crosby replied, "It is a much needed cleansing, yes, but not an ethnic one. Israel is not targeting humans."

This message is absolutely inappropriate and dehumanizes Palestinian civilians who are dying in the thousands in Gaza. As Prof. Crosby is a representative of Washington University, this reflects very poorly on the university. It does not help that the professor of GENETICS also supports genocide.

As an American citizen I am ashamed to see this kind of rhetoric. Please consider whether disciplinary action is needed.

Thank you, Concerned American

To be clear, you don't have to be an American citizen to claim it. Just use a VPN in the US.
