Thailand: Legal Committee Pushes for Immediate Halt to China’s Rare Earth Mining in Myanmar over cross-border pollution
Cross-posted from lemmy.sdf.org/post/43049861
Archived[...]
[Anuk Pitukthanin, Director of the Mekong Studies Centre] said the rare earth mining issue must be managed beyond local communities and treated as a regional concern.
Kanwee Suebsaeng, list MP for the Fair Party and deputy chair of the House committee [in Tahiland] said the House considered the Clean Air Bill yesterday, 25 September. One section deals with transboundary pollution. He asked the drafters how Thailand could bring civil action against foreign operators whose activities in neighbouring countries harm Thailand.
[...]
Zung Ting from the Kachin environmental network reported that conditions in Myanmar’s Kachin State have worsened over the past decade, and even more since the 2021 coup.
Kachin holds vast resources amid high global demand for rare earths to feed clean energy supply chains and stockpiles in the United States, the European Union and Japan. Mining sites are located in Kachin, with China playing a major role in extracting ore and adding value.
He said China focuses on processing to add value at home, while avoiding mining on its own soil due to severe environmental harm. Chinese policy shifted to limit domestic rare earth mining by Chinese firms, pushing operations into several areas of Myanmar. Activity rose sharply after 2015, then increased again after the 2021 coup.
[...]
The absence of control is alarming. Rare earth mining sites in Kachin have increased by more than 60 percent, with over 5,000 chemical ponds across about 400 mines. Similar mines and ponds have spread to Shan State. The impact falls heavily on local communities and indigenous peoples, with severe flooding every year. More countries are now moving into Myanmar to seek rare earth ores.
[...]
Pollution from these rare earth mines is now affecting Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai and reaches the Mekong. He urged all parties to learn from the disaster in Kachin and prevent further cross-border pollution.
[...]
Assoc Prof Dr Narumon Thabchumpon of the Faculty of Political Science, Chulalongkorn University, said political debates often get stuck on territorial limits. She proposed the no-harm principle. States must not cause serious harm to other states, and sovereignty comes with responsibility.
She urged ASEAN to table cross-border pollution from rare earth mining at the summit in November under the ASEAN Agreement on Transboundary Haze Pollution. She also called for talks on environmental and health security under RBC frameworks. Local authorities should be strengthened, with early warning systems and buffer zones put in place.

Be' è stato un pranzo un po' così, con madar abbiamo spaziato dalle scrittrici preferite alla probabile terza guerra mondiale, io le ho raccontato di questo, todon.nl/@jones/11527579738381…, e ho realizzato compiutamente che, a parte forse un po' la nuova zelanda, dove però non ti danno cittadinanza se non sei straricco, e dove c'è la maggior concentrazione di rifugi antiatomici perché i ricchi possano tirarla un po' per le lunghe e poi estinguersi pure loro, non ci sono posti sul pianeta che non sarebbero bombardati pesantemente, un'opzione per chi ha i soldi potrebbe essere una barca, ma i soldi non ce li ho, quindi ho concluso con un "va be' però quando la situazione precipitasse e milano cominciasse a essere bombardata, mi riservo il diritto di drogarmi forte", al che mia madre ci è rimasta male, ma tant'è. Ora mi fumo un cibidone e tento il pisolo.
The Colombian president called yesterday "for the formation of an international army from Asian countries to liberate Palestine".
I think he should make clear what such an army would do to liberate Palestine.
I also think that these governments, and the governments already sending military ships, should better try to tell Israel government that the GSF has nothing to do with Hamas, and that they will only defend the GSF without attacking Israel, and help the GSF bring aids to palestinian people in Gaza, and bring the people who may reach the ports in Gaza to safer lands by doing back and forth trips from Gaza to their countries, or just don't use what the GSF is trying to do to push a proper third world war for their economic interests.

特定技能労働者は、N4以上の日本語検定取得と、その業種に関するテストに合格していないと在留資格が降りません。管理団体はありませんが、登録支援団体という法定組織が労働者と雇用者を仲介します。労働者としての権利はフルにあります。5年の就労後に2号試験に合格すれば事実上無制限に日本に滞在でき、2号は配偶者と子を伴うこともできます。
技人国は、大卒以上の（専門が合致すれば短大もOK）外国人が企業と直で契約し働きます。労働者としての権利はフルにあり配偶者と子も伴うことができますが、「単純労働をさせてはならない」「企業がビザ（在留資格）申請を行うので恣意的に解雇し放題」なので、本来は「エリートがジョブ型雇用で契約期間のみ働く」制度です。日本語は全くできなくても雇用できてしまいます。近年この技人国の悪用が非常に増えています。

"OpenAI has now made multiple egregious, ridiculous, fantastical and impossible promises to many different parties, in amounts ranging from $50 million to $400 billion, all of which are due within the next five years. It will require hundreds of billions of dollars — either through direct funding, loans, or having partners like Oracle or NVIDIA take the burden, though at this point I believe both companies are genuinely failing their investors by not protecting them from Clammy Sam Altman, a career liar who somehow believes he can mobilize nearly a trillion dollars and have the media print anything he says, mostly because they will print anything he says, even when he says he wants to build 1 Gigawatt of AI infrastructure a week.
Today, I’m going to go into detail about every single promise made by Sam Altman and his cadre of charlatans, and give you as close to a hard dollar amount as I can as what it would cost to meet these promises.
To be clear, I am aware that in some of these cases another party will take on the burden of capital — but these dollars must be raised, and OpenAI must make sure they are raised.
I’ll also get into the raw costs of running OpenAI, and how dire things look when you add everything up. In fact, based on my calculations, OpenAI needs at least $500 billion just to fund its own operations, and at least $432 billion or more through partners or associated entities raising debt just to make it through the next few years.
And that's if OpenAI hits the insane revenue targets it's set!"

The Loneliest Guy in the Room - Truthdig
Trump’s incoherent harangue to the family of nations put a spotlight on America’s self-inflicted, abject isolation.Jeb Lund (Truthdig)
My ultra-geeky childhood programming story:
When I was a small child in the 80s, we had two computers in the house. One was the usual kind of 'your child can learn to program on this!' 80s home computer, in our case a ZX Spectrum. And I did learn to program on it. But the other one was the interesting one.
My dad worked for DEC, and had brought home a DEC Robin. (I think officially a VT180? But Dad always used the internal codename.) He would use it to work from home, by dialling the office on the phone, and running a VMS shell session directly over a 1980s modem. I'd sometimes sit and watch him work, and of course not understand very much.
When Dad wasn't using the Robin, I was allowed to have a go on it. It ran CP/M-80, and had a BASIC interpreter called MBASIC. So I learned that dialect in parallel with Spectrum BASIC.
On the Spectrum, my toy programs would often use the Spectrum's graphics, to draw pictures or weird interference patterns or whatever. But the Robin only had a text mode (or at least, if it did have graphics, I never found them). What would be fun for a child to do on that?
(1/4)
I was unsatisfied with how text was printed. When I used the MBASIC "print" command, the whole line of text I printed would appear on the screen at once. But when Dad worked over the modem, text would appear one character at a time. So I arranged for my imitation DEC work environment to print one character at a time too, and tuned the delay loop until it was printing at about the right speed.
I remember that I had the idea that printing one character at a time was _better_. I didn't see the slow printing as a flaw that I was faithfully imitating: rather, printing one character at a time was more like how _grown-ups_ used computers, as I saw it. I had the vague and confused idea that when I was grown up, _I'd_ use systems that did it that way too.
(I just now wrote a similar delayed-print function, and tuned it until it matched the printing speed I vaguely remembered from being 7. It turned out that speed corresponds pretty closely to 1200 baud, so I guess that's what Dad's modem must have been at the time.)
(3/4)
From one point of view this sounds like about the geekiest thing ever. But I think on its own terms it makes perfect sense.
It's very natural for children to mimic what adults do in general. Many children's toys are sold for just this purpose, e.g. toy doctor and nurse outfits, and props like toy stethoscopes, to play at being medical professionals. And if the capitalist economy won't sell you the props for whatever game of that kind you want to play, children are also perfectly capable of making their own.
But to mimic what my father did, I didn't need physical toys, because I could use the actual same computer he used. Only the _software_ toys were missing – so that was what I had to make myself.
Even that weird idea that printing your text _fast_ is some kind of childish thing that you put away when you're grown up. There _are_ a lot of situations where adults take longer to do a thing, because they have to take account of stuff that children don't yet have to worry about. (Like, a child can just run out of the house any time, but an adult has to go round making sure the doors and windows are locked.) Doing things the simple and quick way _can_ be an aspect of childish naïveté!
Of all the code I've ever written in my life and lost, this suite of toy VMS simulations is perhaps the thing I'm most sad about. If I could go back in time and snag a copy off my floppy disk, I'd have great fun going through it all again and reminding myself of the bits I've forgotten.
(4/4)
@fishidwardrobe the parallel hadn't struck me, but perhaps the modern analogue of "slow because you're doing it over a modem" is "slow because it's running in a browser rather than natively, and the cloud provider has downloaded a metric ton of Javascript bloatware to your tab".
In my office we have one slightly spreadsheet-shaped tool which is just _unforgivably_ slow to respond. You move the cursor into a cell, start typing, and half a second later the spreadsheet finishes processing the cursor-move event and resets the field to empty, losing the first half of what you'd already typed. Ugh. If I wrote that in plain JS I'd struggle to make it that slow on purpose. It must be because the real version is built out of loosely bolted-together third-party libraries none of which is really suited for the job it's doing.
Then again, it sounds as if in your case the animation is deliberate, rather than just a consequence of terrible performance!
