Based.
Strict adherence to Occham's razor would have us dispense with the former, but the latter is useful empirically.
There is some dogmatic insistence in GP, but equally dogmatic throwdowns on the other side of the argument are often passed over as trivially obvious.
I don't know what's what, but I think this insistence is a useful counterweight.
Onuses are on whomever says they exist ;)
From above, or from below with adequate exposure, it feels facile and hollow. It is good at weaving grammatical structures. It is not good at thinking in words in a way that invites a fellow human along for the journey. Because it doesn't think.
overall i'm seeing a potential here for more human authoring, as you can really multiply the surface of your inputs with deterministic widgets rather than just delegating.
I tried this but latency with the cursor was annoying for me, so I just did termux with tmux so I can be keyboard-only.
also there is a browser extension for this kind of thing.
The Tenuto app has some similar exercises (also available here: https://www.musictheory.net/exercises) you might take inspiration from, or others might find useful:
- fretboard interval identification. shows two dots on the fretboard, you are supposed to indicate the interval between them. this is useful for bridging the gap between audio interval recognition and actually playing by ear. since you already have the functionality for selecting notes - which the Tenuto app does not - a useful extension would be to have it where the app presents a note and an interval, and you select the note that is that interval distance from that note on the fretboard.
- fretboard chord indentification. shows multiple dots on the fretboard, you are supposed to indicate what chord it is. the tenuto app doesnt have the functionality for you to indicate what the inversion is. you could also do a similar extension where the fretboard has some notes selected and a chord display, and you select the rest of the notes needed to complete the chord.
The threat to his regime and its legitimacy is to have a democratic neighbor with russian speakers who live better lives, in what is a former colonial subject of the glorious russian empires.
NATO does make a great bogeyman though for internal audiences, to shift attention away from the futures they are deprived of by dictatorship.
And one party instigated by allowing victims of imperial subjugation to seek protection against further imperial subjugation by joining a military alliance... or something like that?
These things are all quite different, it is strange to use the same word to describe them.
"...aerial laser maps reported by Estrada-Belli and colleagues have revealed large, interconnected Maya cities now obscured by forests in other parts of northern Guatemala (SN: 9/27/18). The next step, Estrada-Belli says, is to assemble an aerial laser map of at least 100 square kilometers around Tamarindito to see if it was built in relative isolation."
if they don't even know whether it was built in isolation, how could they possibly be in a position to make these kind of conclusions about how it came about?
hence, "theory."
that's an interesting little phraseology/unsubstantiated theory of state, especially coming from a science publication. typically, you "subject" subjects, hence the word.
alternatively, if the redundancy bothers you, you can subject populaces instead.
main use is to mislead self an dothers
I'm not familiar with The Tragedy of Great Power Politics, but Dr. Snyder makes some strong counterpoints to the Mearsheimer way of thinking on Ukraine in this [1] podcast and others.
He has also given a timely history on modern Ukraine [2], but I have not got around to listening to it.

So I think some kind of sociological argument makes more sense (I don't know what that would be though).
