Respect a closed-source software which you can't easily check and improve, for academic work? No. It's a tool, not an academic achievement.

Feynman wrote something in the sense Wolfram did invent an interesting way to implement quantum chromodynamics on a computer, so he did something contributory to science.

Many of which are obviously wrong. We do not observe 11-dimensional world.

It's the "new kind of science". /s

What do you mean?

You're describing generally positive traits, not specific to science. Science was pushed forward by many kinds of people, many of them obnoxious, arrogant, racists, etc. You can't disqualify Wolfram as scientist by pointing to his bad personality characteristics.

From the article:

> "users are more likely from a cost perspective to build a system with one of the more affordable B660, H670, and H610 chipsets and pair that with DDR4 memory"

Yes, that is the logical extension of this agenda. Let's make sure it won't be implemented.

What does resistance to liberalism manifest about being more communal or communist? Is resistance to privatisation a "resistance to liberalism" or "communist"? I don't think so. It is nationalistic, conservative and social democratic.

Putin's feelings maybe connected to russian nukes' status, so hold your horses and maybe let's not push democracy down his throat and be badly surprised later.

> rule of law based justice

What other kinds of justice are there? In Russia they do not have law based justice?

Yeah. Russians aren't stupid to send most of their punch in the beginning. Russian actions are perhaps of lower success than expected, but strategically they are correct. First there has to be the phase of measurement and taking out the most dangerous elements, preparing ground for the majority of troups. When roads are safe, the real invasion will come in.

It all depends on the situation. Why did they obliterate Katowice in the first place? Was is it an error, was is a retaliation, was it nonsensical move of a madman? Hopefully at some point both sides will realize that neither the other side wants to continue and they would all stop at some point. Like in the movie By dawn's early light.
