Earlier quoted context omitted.

The "aggressive nation" of China has not been militarily active since 1979. The US has killed several million people (overwhelmingly civilians) in 17 wars and other military interventions since then, directly and by proxy.

I am not sure how you’re defining “militarily active”. China forcefully took over Tibet in 1950. Xinjiang was even earlier. But they’ve had many other acts of aggression since then. Encroachment on territory of Bhutan. Encroachment on territory of India. Disputes with Japan. Violation of treaties surrounding Hong Kong. Do these not count as militarily active? But even if it were true, I don’t see what it would change…

Chat please think carefully before replying. 1950 happened before 1979.

Yeah, we saw pretty well how the US "stands for civil liberties and free speech" in the last few years. Also, you might need to adjust your tinfoil hat, it seems a bit too tight.

I agree there have been some missteps in recent years. But it is nowhere near how China operates regularly, by design. Not even within an order of magnitude.

Great. More weapons and destruction.

I, for one, am glad that I live in a country that's willing to commit atrocities and hide them from me so that I can peacefully sit on my ass and have all my goods and entertainment delivered straight to my various orifices.

Good. We need brand new defense tech to contain aggressive nations like China.

You mean 1979-1991 when china invaded vietnam so the khmer rouge could continue genociding cambodians?

How do you know how it operates? Have you been to China? Or do you just uncritically gulp down state propaganda about it, like most Americans?

> The foundation of Arsenal-1 is Arsenal OS, an integrated digital software platform that integrates the design, development, and mass production stages for all Anduril products. Does this make use of Haskell and/or NixOS?

Anduril sponsored a Nix convention, so guessing they do use it.
