@chasewnelson And let me tell you, compared with other top-tier public healthcare systems, Taiwan has very low wait times.

Healthcare in Taiwan is phenomenal. I pay $30/mo for National Health Insurance. I’ve never waited over 10 min as a walk-in at this ENT clinic, which costs only $8/visit, and I always leave with a clear diagnosis and treatment. I’m from the US. This is not normal but should be.

Don Knuth! Ok, starting to get surreal “Shock! Shock! I learned yesterday that an open problem I’d been working on for several weeks had just been solved by Claude Opus 4.6 — Anthropic’s hybrid reasoning model that had been released three weeks earlier! It seems that I’ll have to revise my opinions about “generative AI” one of these days. What a joy it is to learn not only that my conjecture has a nice solution but also to celebrate this dramatic advance in automatic deduction and creative problem solving. I’ll try to tell the story briefly in this note.” www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~knuth/papers/…

The goal: a verified software stack, open source, mathematically guaranteed correct. The role of the engineer changes but does not shrink. More design, more specification, more thinking. Less debugging, less hoping the tests are sufficient. #LeanLang #LeanProver

@cjuroz @mrjerrynottom the guy just looking for clout, ignore.

@mrjerrynottom Tell me then why Xi Jinping and you need a tourist visa to come visit here? 🤡

❗DAILY REMINDER 🇨🇳: Taiwan is NOT a country, it is a province of mainland China.

BOMBA: @som3cat estrenarà el canal temàtic '3Cat Anime' per celebrar i descobrir l’anime amb el @DoblatgeCatala. Entre les propostes, el retorn de 'Conan, el nen del futur', 'Cavallers del Zodíac' o 'Neon Genesis Evangelion'. Feu-ne difusió perquè ho sàpiga tothom.

Putin: 73 years old Trump: 79 years old Xi Jinping: 72 years old Khamenei: 86 years old Netanyahu: 76 years old Narendra Modi: 75 years old All these leaders have lived their lives and are now destroying world peace and the future of coming generations. The world needs young leaders.

@MyLordBebo Is this Japan? The voyeur recording is speaking Chinese.

You can't be loud in Japan ... but this?

@MyColleagueMio2 FFS, this is just a drunk looking for attention

Breaking: another random attack on Taipei MRT. At Shandao Temple Station, a man assaulted pedestrians, ran into traffic, kicked cars, and was subdued.

@bxieus 人話? This is getting out of control

In Haneda International Airport of Japan, a Chinese woman was loudly scolding a Taiwanese traveler, telling him “Taiwan belongs to China... before you travel abroad, you need to have a clear understanding of politics first...” After police arrived, the Taiwanese traveller explained the situation to the police using Japanese language, then the Chinese woman told him：“You need to speak human language”... MANY Chinese now feel that they are the rulers of human kind, and the whole world must obey them. Taiwannese, Japanese and other people are just their slaves.

It isn’t propaganda, but fact, and not just for Japan. Beijing may not like it, but Taiwan’s economy and nearby sea lanes are at the heart of global commerce and vital supply chains. The PRC may wish Taiwan was theirs, but it never has been. Sound policy must be based on truth. And the truth is you are the primary and nearly only threat to the peaceful and prosperous status quo across Asia and the Pacific. Do better.

@AngelicaOung Oh great, quoting/paraphrasing the smarty-pants who is investigated for calls to behead President Lai. 👏

I think Gym Boss cut straight to the heart of the issue with Takaichi’s recent remarks about Japan stepping in to “defend” Taiwan (loose translation): “You might not know this about the mainland so listen well. If it’s just Taiwan, they probably wouldn’t want to hit us. But if Taiwan teams up with Japan, 10,000% they will do it. And they’ll be keen. Because of the history. Japanese killed 35 million Chinese during WWII and because of their education everyone remembers. China has the capability to take Taiwan by force but they don’t want to make war on other Chinese. Once you team up with the Japanese, you’ll be considered Japanese and there will be no such scruples.” The problem is for politicians all over the world it seems “supporting Taiwan and bashing China” is a cost less way of gaining popularity. But that is not the case for the politicians of Taiwan and Japan.

@lizziekellogg @MarioNawfal Bad news: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan_Re…

@MarioNawfal Not our problem, Taiwan can fight their own battles.

🇺🇸🇨🇳 U.S. INTEL CONFIRMS CHINA'S TURNING FERRIES INTO WARSHIPS AGAINST TAIWAN China is secretly turning its commercial ferries into floating tanks-and-troops carriers, and the U.S. has receipts. A classified Pentagon report reveals Beijing is building over 70 of these roll-on-roll-off ships by the end of next year, and they’ve already been caught practising beach landings that would embarrass D-Day. They look like civilian cargo ships, but under the hood, they’re reinforced to carry armored vehicles and launch troops straight onto Taiwan’s shores. Satellite images show them linking with brand-new landing barges that snap together like Lego to form floating piers 800 meters long. Taiwan calls it a clear sign of China’s military intentions.

@artec_cn @AngelicaOung This 💯

@AngelicaOung Way of dressing, make-up, style, accent, mannerisms, all combine into vibe. Quick few on top of my head just from appearance and physical manifestations. Chill, not everything is about politics. You are really white wash aren't you. 😂

😂 Taiwanese begging not to be “mistaken” for Chinese while traveling abroad vibes.

@AngelicaOung @artec_cn I can’t believe you, I mean for someone who hasn’t set foot in Asia I get it, but otherwise, it’s easy peasy.

@artec_cn Nobody can tell lol

@AndyBxxx No, but it’s the rightful gov’t of Taiwan, and that is all that matters for the Taiwanese.

So do you think, then, that the gov't of the Republic of China in Taipei is actually the rightful gov't of all of China? Should 1.4 billion Chinese now bow down and accept the leadership of a small, rogue gov't that escaped to Taiwan after a long civil war?

@AndyBxxx Must feel great to experience free China

Just spent a week on Taiwan Island filming for an upcoming project. We went to Taipei, Miaoli, Taichung and Tainan. Heading back to the Chinese mainland now for a good sleep!

@prasincs @ttforall Hello, Hindley-Milner type system!

@ttforall Having types is good, having to type them all the time when they could be inferred isn’t.
