I am always happy to see so much music theory content here. I have a bachelor of music for my undergrad, and working on my mscs at the moment. There must be a lot of people like me who discovered their love / interest in computation through music theory.

In principle I am against nuclear weapons. In practice I believe a deterrent state (at least two adversarial countries maintaining an active nuclear stockpile) is probably better than just one country maintaining an active stockpile.

I always wonder what would have happened if it had taken the Soviets longer to develop atomic weapons (or never did). Would a hawkish US president be more likely to use nuclear weapons to assert foreign policy than they are now?
