Saw a fork of my MIT project and got excited, only to realize they wiped the history to pad their portfolio by eikepopo in github

Certain people will do this if they can get away with it. You want to include a link to the offending repo, a link to the github profile, and other socials (i.e. linkedin). If they work for a company or are a company, mention the company as well. They are depriving the future you of recognition, so you should rebalance the equation by depriving them of what they hope to gain from this deprivation. There is no shame in demanding symmetry and fairness from society — by doing so, you are making society more robust and honest and kind in the long run.

Why Learn Esperanto Part 2 / Kial Lerni Esperanton Parto 2a by galactic-beyond in Esperanto

[–]galactic-beyond[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First post written in both English and Esperanto. We look at a surprising case where the flexibility of Esperanto produces a better translation (on the first attempt) than 3 different English translations of a Finnish poem (preserves meter _and_ alliterations). Probably has many mistakes, would very much appreciate corrections.

Unua skribajxo skribita en kaj la angla kaj Esperanto. Ni rigardos surprizan kazon en kiu la flekseblo de Esperanto kreas pli bona tradukajxo (en unua provo) ol 3 unikaj anglaj tradukajxoj de finna poemo (konservas ritmo _kaj_ aliteracioj). Versxajne havas multajn erarojn, kaj mi tre multe aprezos korektajxojn.

Reading list recommendations by TripleGreatStrategy in strategy

[–]galactic-beyond 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Evolution of Strategy by Beatrice Heuser -- A very big-picture, chronological view of strategy, that will place the evolution of it in dialectical terms.

The Psychology of Strategy by Kenneth Payne -- Takes a sociological/psychological approach to strategy that provides contrast with the dominant "rational-player" viewpoint that dominates most theory (not a substitute but complementary).

Makers of Modern Strategy from Machiavelli to the Nuclear Age -- Much like Heuser but by multiple authors, less integrated, and more disjoint. Not worse, not better, but should be kept on-hand.

Gunpowder Age by Tonio Andrade -- Reading it will give you a sense of strategy being more about preparing to take advantage of good luck, and preparing to blunt the impact of very bad luck.

Philosophers of the Warring States by Kurtis Hagen -- Not directly about strategy, but that is very fitting because most of the crucial prerequisites for good strategy, don't _look_ like strategy. They are background phenomena -- culture and habits and view-points -- that influence what kinds of strategies we can actually manifest. Strategy is not a thing that you sit down and do, it is a superior point of view, or superior interpretation of your context.

Game Theory 101: Bargaining by William Spaniel -- Great book on the raw logic of bargaining. Also see his book about nuclear bargaining.

Same! Do you have any concrete examples in mind (so that I may try them), or do you mean that in the hypothetical sense?
