The ministers of the two countries are discussing bilateral relations between Latvia and the Czech Republic, the security situation in the region, including Russia’s aggression in Ukraine, the enlargement of the European Union, and the fight against disinformation. As part of his visit, Foreign Minister Lipavský will have a meeting with the Speaker of the Saeima (the Latvian Parliament), Eduards Smiltēns, as well as visiting the Ādaži military base(..) 

P.S. In order to avoid the repetition of the situation of the 1930s and the post-war period, when Eastern Europe and the Baltic region were handed over to the Russian communists (essentially under the control of Russian imperialists), the countries of the Eastern European region must strengthen mutual cooperation, especially in the military field.

A strong indigenous military industry, strong armed forces and readiness to use them immediately against any external threat are the only guarantee of peace in Eastern Europe...

I hear advice from the older generation that “buying a house is an investment”. On one level, I get that. Buying a house is a better way to spend money than renting, because at the end, you have something. You have a whole frigging house. On another level, I think that the idea that home prices should outpace inflation is insane and maybe has broken modern society.

San Francisco ... thousands protesting #APEC2023 and demanding #CeasefireNOW in joint pro-Palestine action, many groups in solidarity of collective struggles

-- renepakmorrison, 12 Nov 2023

From the No 2 Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) campaign IG, "From Nov. 12th to Nov. 17th in San Francisco, CA, 21 heads of state, over 1200 CEOs of global corporations, and thousands of corporate lobbyists, government officials and “free trade” delegates will come to the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation’s Summit to further their drive for profits, and their control over our political, economic, and cultural life, as well as the rapidly deteriorating climate.

Thousands will descend on the San Francisco Bay Area in a mass of community, creativity, and resistance to demonstrate what's possible in the face of poverty, human rights abuses and the climate crisis. There will be a week of action beginning with the Peoples’ Counter Summit on Nov. 11th, then the November 12th Mass Mobilization, a variety of actions around the Bay Area and a mass direct action at APEC’s CEO summit on Nov. 15th."

For more information about No 2 APEC and the impact of APEC on workers, students, and colonized people everywhere, check out the campaign linktree.

If you feel down for it, I would love to see a small crossover between your Canadian and Ancient Greek characters

since you asked so nicely p:

occasionally i think about how they're actually contemporaries today, but it's hard for me to say anything significant about Canada-Greece relations from here because most of them are based in Eastern Canada (Montreal and Athens are the only sister cities between the two nations, which certainly would make an interesting dynamic! but one may have to ask @randomoranges)

so the primary connection I know is from the University of Alberta; we have a dig site near the modern village of Kallithea (in Thessaly, south of Larissa). I do regret not going to field school when I had the opportunity; I did hear secondhand that the post-dig ice cream was excellent. Since Edith is the representative for the university, she's standing in for Ed here. If I remember correctly, which nationalities can dig where is strictly controlled by the Greek government, so I think Canadians typically work on sites in northern Greece.

The only other connection I can think of off the top of my head would be the torch lighting ceremony for Calgary's Winter Olympics...

Bored in economics

@mmemory1

(I should mention this is over chat in a google doc) So after arguing about check vs cheque we have this during our econ class:

A:"Utopia" "Unobtainable"

B: econ is great

A: I want to write a monologue

C: do it

A: a villianish hero human monologue

B: the unobtainable utopia: the story of the world's nerdiest villain

threat to the economy

threat to society

And here starts the story that took place in econ. Each paragraph is a switch between C and A, starting with C:

"'Utopia.' Something that will remain unobtainable under the rule of your king. He sits upon a throne made of blood and lies and you all bow your heads to him, lapdogs to your dearest tyrant.

Then the smart ass human in the back of the room pipes up and says "Utopia will never be obtainable long run, ever, so your point is invalid"

The villain stops, looking over slowly at the human in the back of the room with venom in their eyes. "Say that again, boy."

"Utopia will never be obtainable long run, ever, so your point is invalid"

The villain sighs and walks down from the platform the throne sits on. With a wave from her sword, the crowd in the room parts to show the human standing alone in the back.

The human was a sickly looking stick of a boy with glasses that made his eyes the size of his forehead. Unfazed, he walked forward to the edge of the crowd. "You see, when economics and basic human nature is considered, utopia will never be possible. Everyone being employed will lead to skyrocketing prices and inflation and along with that there would be-"

The villain rolls her eyes as the explanation drags on. "Stop, stop." She waves her free hand in front of the boy. "You talk to much. I'm not here to lead these people, I'm hear to end a tyranny and that will bring a utopia for those who have long suffered. I do not care for their economy because it will fall no matter the outcome."

"Ah but here comes human nature. When everything is taken care of, every need and want fulfilled, humans become complacent and vain. And with complacence and vanity come rapid reproduction and violence until the whole of the place is dead"

"The you rule. You and your scrawny form obviously know *so much* about humans and their primitive tendencies. The king is right there," she places a cold hand on the boy's shoulder and gestures up to the king struggling in his restraints.

(B pops in) A bystander stares silently at the spectacle happening before him. He thinks, hoping she cannot hear his every thought, "Damn. Economics is intense." (Back to C and A. A starting)

"Yeah see, that's my dad and he disowned me because he didn't want a smart son, he wanted a strong son. Try and beat this family reunion."

"Then kill him and take your rightful place on the throne," she bellows out into the room. The crowd murmurs and nods, some cheering for the boy. "Show him your strength of mind and willpower. I will lend you the strength of my five sons if you do so."

"Why kill him? He's already lost all credibility to his allies and his people. No one will take him in to their kingdom after his failure of an economics plan. But yes kill him," The boy waves the sword she had given him around in the air and turned to face the woman," kill him even when he poses no threat. Encourage violence and only make the situation worse." He slammed the sword in a downward motion wherever it was swinging. Behind him he heard a gurgle. Turning around he saw the tip of the sword resting at the end of a long gash down his father's throat. "Whoops"

The crowd erupts in a cacophony of cheers and chants. The villain grabs the boy's arm and raises it in the air, lifting him off the ground. "To your new king! May he bring you prosperity and health in this new age!"

Intermarium, a Polish idea to isolate and deter Russia, finally becomes a functional idea, the war speeds things up. Rail2Sea project will be finished by 2029. Ukraine will surely join after the war(..). Source:  PaulC

P.S. Very good project! This is necessary primarily to promote transport connections and economic and military cooperation between Eastern European countries so that our region does not once again become a hostage to the deals concluded by "useful fools" behind the backs of Eastern Europeans! The cooperation among the Eastern European countries must include the component of building a local MILITARY INDUSTRY, so that our security protection no longer depends on the whims of corrupt Western politicians, such as Trump...

Home Management

A class project from the Home Ec department, carrying an egg around as a baby (Don't drop!), and remain within a grocery budget for married couples who are paired together from a hat. Archie and Betty end up together, and Veronica and Jughead end up together.

Puzzling thing on this six page story and its reprint. A few coloring changes -- a couple mood backgrounds not too serious, and the cake on the last page appears to go from chocolate to strawberry frosting. But in added accoutrements -- a wave line here, a sweat drop there, there appears to be a hardly perceptible change made in eight panels, one made each page and two additional beside.

Not going to notice it unless you comb through it, and why would anyone do that? I suppose the editorial decision is that it needed a bit more garnishing more so than an aesthetic overhaul.

Game Theory and Probability Theory

In mathematics and economics, there is a fascinating crossroads where strategic decision-making meets uncertainty. This intersection is where Game Theory and Probability Theory converge, offering insights into the dynamics of human interaction, strategic behaviour, and the unpredictability of outcomes. Join me as we delve into this captivating domain, exploring how these two fields intertwine and shape our understanding of complex systems.

Understanding Game Theory

At its core, Game Theory is the study of strategic decision-making among multiple interacting agents, aptly referred to as "players." Think of it as the science of strategy, where individuals or entities make choices with the aim of maximizing their own gains while considering the actions of others. Whether it's in economics, political science, biology, or beyond, Game Theory provides a framework for analyzing various scenarios of conflict, cooperation, and competition.

The Elements of Games

To grasp the essence of Game Theory, we need to understand its building blocks. Games are characterized by players, strategies, payoffs, information, and rationality. Each player has a set of strategies to choose from, leading to different outcomes with associated payoffs. Information asymmetry and rational decision-making further complicate the dynamics, making Game Theory a rich field for exploration.

Probability Theory's Role

Enter Probability Theory, the study of random phenomena and uncertainty. In the context of Game Theory, probability comes into play when outcomes are uncertain or stochastic. Whether it's the roll of a dice in a board game or the unpredictability of market fluctuations in economics, probability theory provides the tools to quantify and analyze uncertainty.

Where They Meet

So, how do Game Theory and Probability Theory intertwine? Consider a game like poker, where players must make decisions based on incomplete information and uncertain outcomes. Probability theory allows us to calculate the likelihood of different hands and anticipate opponents' actions, thereby informing strategic choices. In more complex games involving multiple players and intricate strategies, probability theory helps us model the uncertainty inherent in the decision-making process.

Applications and Insights

The applications of this marriage between Game Theory and Probability Theory are vast. From designing optimal auction mechanisms to analyzing voting behavior in elections, the insights gained from this interdisciplinary approach are invaluable. Moreover, in the age of artificial intelligence and machine learning, understanding strategic interactions and uncertain environments is crucial for developing intelligent systems capable of making informed decisions.

Conclusion

In the landscape of mathematical sciences, the synergy between Game Theory and Probability Theory offers a lens through which we can understand and navigate the complexities of strategic decision-making and uncertainty. As we continue to explore this dynamic intersection, we unlock new perspectives and tools for addressing real-world challenges across various domains. So, the next time you find yourself pondering a strategic dilemma or contemplating uncertain outcomes, remember the profound insights that emerge when Game Theory meets Probability Theory.
