I haven’t seen Iran change their position on that.

Are you asking why fascists are doing fascist things?

they actually do have a link about it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Church_Slavonic

Fun fact, Poles in their infinite wisdom switched from using Cyrillic alphabet which naturally maps to Polish sounds https://www.omniglot.com/conscripts/polishcyrillic.htm

yeah a new particle discovery would be huge

Indeed

that’s incredible

the power of state planning

There’s gonna be a whole black market for smuggling open computing platforms from China 🤣

Can’t wait for EU to ban general purpose computing. At some point ,everybody is just going to get a locked down Windows tablet where only EU approved software runs.

Every crisis is an opportunity. :)

No prob, it was a fun discovery in my Mandarin learning journey.

Might be an artifact of Mandarin where large numbers are grouped by increments of ten thousand, whereas English groups by increments of one thousand. Specifically, English has distinct words for every three decimal places with thousand, million, billion, trillion while Mandarin uses 万 (wàn) for ten thousand, 亿 (yì) for one hundred million (ten thousand 万), and then continues with units that are each ten thousand times the previous one.

So, the grouping explains why the number is 135 million since 1.35亿 = 135 million, but the unit choice likely comes from a common Chinese convention where in Mandarin, large power capacities are frequently expressed using 千瓦 (kilowatts) with large-number multipliers like 万 or 亿, e.g., 亿千瓦 (hundred-million kilowatts), rather than adopting the SI prefix “吉瓦” (gigawatt). So the original Mandarin likely read 1.35亿千瓦 and was translated literally as 135 million kilowatts.

The project has over 5k stars now, so it’s definitely in active use, and you can see it’s updated regularly. It’s been developed by a researcher who is using it for his own work. Why do you expect it to be abandoned?

finally some feel good news
