Good article on how the US's approach to China makes war more likely.
"[It's a] cycle where the US makes the first move, interprets Chinese reactions as a provocation, and then escalates further. [We'll] end up provoking the war that we seek to deter"

It looks like I’m moving to Mastodon https://simonwillison.net/2022/Nov/5/mastodon/
Time for an #introduction post from me I think
Hi, I'm Simon! I'm a full-time open source developer based in Half Moon Bay, California (half an hour south of San Francisco), mostly working on https://datasette.io and the 100+ (seriously) tools and plugins around it.
The theme of my work is helping people explore, analyze and publish their data.
You can learn lots more about me in this post I wrote celebrating my blog's 20th birthday https://simonwillison.net/2022/Jun/12/twenty-years/
Should have added some hashtags! I'll likely be talking mostly about #python, #datascience, #DataAnalytics, #sqlite, #datasette, #ai, #ml, #webdev, #nichemuseums (https://www.niche-museums.com is my website for that last one)

Insulin is grown in huge vats by modified bacteria for basically no cost. It was the intention of the people who developed this technique that no one who need it ever be without. It does not have any justification costing any amount of money. https://twitter.com/Kidfears99/status/1587058413753753602
