There is a lot of software that is just code, though; especially at the foundational level.

I guess the thing is - we've always had open source, frameworks, libraries, whatever for all that though, haven't we?

So we can glue that together a bit faster, great.

What if we also stop producing new open source, frameworks, libraries, etc.

What about stories like Tailwind?

Yes. For me personally, I am only interested in creating short demo videos in as little time as possible. OBS is an advanced software that requires me to learn to use it.

I just downloaded this and had a zoom effect video from the first attempt. The learning curve is roughly zero.

This one is free even for commercial usage.

so is cap if one has the will to build from source, no? https://github.com/CapSoftware/Cap/blob/main/LICENSE

Dropping the bomb will be a massive loss for the US as it’ll legitimatize nuclear warfare. Right out of the attack, the US ceases being the first firepower and becomes equal to the rest of the nuclear ones.

Next Russia takes Ukraine in a week and rich countries will buy nukes from North Korea and Pakistan.

I might be wrong (am not a geopolitical expert) but my guess is that if the US doesn't get this resolved by itself; most countries in the world are going to rage at it harder (like an order of magnitude harder) than during the tariffs war of last year.

Many countries ranging from advanced allies like Japan to random poor countries like the Philippines will see economic damages that are way worse than tariffs.

Iran was a hornet nest. A hornet nest is annoying and dangerous to have around. But it makes no sense to break it open with no plan on how to properly handle the fallout.

> Pretty sure anyone who fights the US military finds out pretty fast it’s a good military.

I am not sure about that. Iraq, Afghanistan, to name the new ones and Vietnam to name an old one.

Sure you can take an easy/undisciplined target like Maduro. But many armies in the world can also do that. Another thing that has to be recognized: alternative warfare (ie: terrorism) is a legitimate form of warfare regardless of its morality. You can't, in my opinion, claim military supremacy while not being able to contain these other risks.

Another upcoming one: cyber-warfare.

> Sure you can take an easy/undisciplined target like Maduro.

You think what the US military did there was easy? lol. Lmao, even.

I found out a similar thing with my website being blocked by corporate firewalls. You need to create profiles at these cyber companies and then wait for whitelisting so that they can drop the ban.

I am not sure why you are being downvoted. People here are acting like Taiwan is made of white-anglosaxon people; whereas if you were to visit, it’s way more Chinese and less Western than Hong Kong even after its degradation.

Most people in Taiwan want to be independent but given a choice between a Gaza scenario and soft-rule from the CCP, they’ll pick the latter.

If you genuinely think these two events will shake the foundations of the US economy, then no investment is really going to protect you; you can't expect a system to shield you from the very thing that's breaking it.

There is crypto but even that got infiltrated by institutional wall street money. There are off-shore jurisdictions but the recent Iran war has showed these can be very vulnerable at a moment notice. There is China, but a Taiwan invasion could reduce your assets there to zero.

Honestly, I think the best bet is crypto/Bitcoin, by far. It operates across borders and still relatively insulated from government reach. Unlike gold, oil, or anything physical, it can be moved without physical visibility.

I do live-feed screen capture and it doesn't really consume much and is barely unnoticeable. Running 100 live-feed screen capture is a different story though.
