Every technology embodies the values of the age in which it was created. When the atomic bomb was being developed in the mid-nineteen-forties, the destruction of cities and the deliberate targeting of civilians was just another military tactic. It was championed as a means to victory. The Geneva Conventions later classified those practices as war crimes – and yet nuclear weapons have no other real use. They threaten and endanger noncombatants for the sake of deterrence. Conventional weapons can now be employed to destroy every kind of military target, and twenty-first-century warfare puts an emphasis on precision strikes, cyberweapons, and minimizing civilian casualties. As a technology, nuclear weapons have become obsolete. What worries me most isn’t the possibility of a cyberattack, a technical glitch, or a misunderstanding starting a nuclear war sometime next week. My greatest concern is the lack of public awareness about this existential threat, the absence of a vigorous public debate about the nuclear-war plans of Russia and the United States, the silent consent to the roughly fifteen thousand nuclear weapons in the world. These machines have been carefully and ingeniously designed to kill us. Complacency increases the odds that, some day, they will. The “Titanic Effect†is a term used by software designers to explain how things can quietly go wrong in a complex technological system: the safer you assume the system to be, the more dangerous it is becoming.
Donald Trump, the next president of the United States and commander-in-chief of the most powerful nuclear arsenal in the world, said in a tweet this week: “The United States must greatly strengthen and expand its nuclear capability until such time as the world comes to its senses regarding nukes”. He also told a TV host “let there be an arms race”.
In response to these remarks by the next president of the United States and commander-in-chief of the most powerful nuclear arsenal in the world, Vladimir Putin, president of the Russian Federation and supreme commander-in-chief of the other most powerful nuclear arsenal in the world, said “We need to strengthen the military potential of strategic nuclear forces, especially with missile complexes that can reliably penetrate any existing and prospective missile defence systems”.
Sleep tight, and merry Christmas.
Remember when everyone was all pissed off that the Obama administration’s FCC wanted to mandate transistor radios in every phone, in case of emergency?
That scary Big Brother seems absolutely quaint by comparison now, doesn’t it?
We should get used to this, because it’s the new normal.

hyper normalisation – by Adam Curtis
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p04b183c/adam-curtis-hypernorm…
Sheesh, Thom. Did you buy rations for Y2K as well, maybe a bunker when Reagan was prez? Well, I guess you better restock in case the world ends… not!
Reagan didn’t have a twitter account to put his unfiltered thoughts on, and he was senile, not unstable.
Cooler heads prevailed during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Compared that to the conspiracy driven appointees that Trump is surrounding himself with. We already seen what happens when you have a Bush surrounded by a Cheney and Rumsfeld echo chamber.
Cuba was JFK, not Reagan.
Yes, I was giving an extra contrasting example for good measure.
Huh? I was under the impression that Reagan supported nuclear DISarmament. He actively seeked to at least decrease the active arsenal of nuclear weapons, leading to the START-treaties.
Even SDI (of “Star Wars”, as the missile shield was popularly called) was meant as an active measure to protect from hostile (nuclear) missiles. Consequently, the USA would have less need for lots of nukes as a deterrent.
That’s a far cry from Trump’s internally inconsistent “The world needs less nukes, so we need more now”.
I don’t think Thom was alive when Reagan was in office …and some of the comments here are internally inconsistent. The reason we arm ourselves is to deter others from attack. If you want to learn about Nuclear Deterrence, I recommend the book, “War and Peace in the Nuclear Age” by John Newhouse. A PBS (circa 1988) 13-part companion series (i.e., college telecourse) was produced by the Annenberg/CPB Project and is very difficult to obtain. Interviews from the series are still available via the PBS website at: http://openvault.wgbh.org/collections/war_peace/interviews
So Putin helped Trump win the election to have an excuse to kick off an arms race?
That’s one theory.
I’m of the mind that Putin’s hackers meddled with the elections with the explicit goal of destabilizing the nation, and obviously it’s working. We now have a megalomaniac president-elect who is creaming his pants at the thought of waging new wars. After all, war means big money for him and his cronies. I just wonder how many Trump supporters knew it would get this bad, and still support him in his obvious madness.
Outside of mainstream media and moderate-oh-this-can’t-possibly-happen opinion, people who would become Trump supporters were already praising Putin for being a strong leader. They know full well what they were wanting, and Trump provided it to them.
I don’t see how Russian hackers meddles in the US election. The DNC email hacks took place in 2015. They should have known about it, through penetration testing, and prevented it. Instead, arrogance prevailed. Wikileaks released the hacked emails that did nothing more than show how biased the DNC was. Russia did not damage the DNC. They did that to themselves, then lied or laughed about it implying that past actions don’t matter. A lot of US citizens felt the DNC’s contempt for them and acted in the only legal way possible.
This.
Even if it was Russian government agencies behind the intrusions of the DNC and of Podesta (something I sorely doubt to be honest), all it did was publish actual info showing precisely how the establishment operated. Had the same info come from a reputable news agency other than Wikileaks (for example the NYT or something) then no one would have called it into serious question or gone on conspiracy rants about Russia.
The only reason we didn’t see the RNC copping the same flack was that Trump came out of nowhere and made the RNC establishment basically irrelevant in the campaign.
Trump is no more or less unstable than many other politicians of the past. He’s *unpredictable* however, which leaves many political junkies uneasy as they can’t tell what’ll come next.
Don’t get me wrong, I disagree with about 80% of his actual politics, but he’s neither an incarnation of Hitler nor of the Joker.
The1stImmortal,
I hope our system of checks and balances stops things from getting too far out of hand, and I believe it’s going to be put to the test this presidency like never before. Frankly I was taken aback that so many republican voters were willing to elect such an authoritarian candidate in the first place, it just seems contrary to the republican values towards individual freedoms I thought I understood and even agreed with at times.

You have at least 4 years to cook some conspiracy theories.
Arms race was kicked by uncontrolled NATO expansion and Missile Defence in Europe. How will you react if Russia placed MD system in Cuba?
Edited 2016-12-25 16:35 UTC
It’s called balance.
Just out of curiosity, what OS do those nukes run? VxWorks? QNX?
Clearly it is Windows 95, it only has to launch then crash shortly after.
The modernized nukes will probably run Linux. Maybe using a (nuclear) cloud service?
A former colleague of mine is a software engineer for General Dynamics, a large U.S. defense contractor, and used to develop ADA code for missile systems. According to him, several of the control systems on board some of the newer cruise missiles at the time actually ran Windows XP Embedded, amongst other things. They use a modular design with a number of distinctly independent computers dedicated to different tasks. Each one is often developed by a separate contractor and so long as it speaks the appropriate protocols they could be running 5 or 10 different embedded OSs or some with none just using bare microcontrollers all on a single missile. Apparently, it was a running joke amongst them that it gave a new meaning to “Blue Screen Of Death”.
While I can’t personally confirm his assertion, it was his day job, so…
CodeMonkey,

Your political slip is showing Thom. Stick to hobby OSes, I don’t come here to get your political opinions.
Then don’t come here. Nobody is forcing you to read and/or comment on this story.
This is a perfect example of a leftist respone to any opposition. If you disagree with us, leave or just shut up.
Demonize (ad hominem) and/or shut it down. They say they want democracy, but in acutality a leftist government always moves toward rule by a cadre or an autocracy.
Your response has nothing to do with the post Thom is replying too, nor Thoms reply. It’s Christmas, I can’t be bothered to pick it apart.
Quite some mental gymnastics to turn an ultimate example of freedom – you are free to not read what I write – into an anti-freedom thing.
Quite, quite an achievement.
@Thom_Holwerda
P–lease. Respond to the assertion. How does your story relate to an Operating System or “aggregating consumer electronic news”? This has become just another avenue for leftist diatribes.
You said “Then don’t come here. Nobody is forcing you to read and/or comment on this story.”
In other words, don’t come here, but if you do, just don’t express your opinions. The is the same thing that is happening on college campuses now. Disagree with the left and be prepared for the consequences. That is why the left wants EVERY political contribution to be public knowledge, so they can harass those that disagree with them.
Sigh okay I guess I’ll pick it apart:
joshy: This has nothing to do with Operating Systems. Please stop posting stuff like this.
Thom: I can post what I like. You don’t need to read it if you don’t like it.
You: WAAAA! FREEDOM OF SPEECH! LEFTISTS! MEDIA CONSPIRACY!
Just shut up.
Vanders,
I suspect you are wasting your time. It is quite telling when someone use disparaged assertions and wild accusations instead of concentrating on the issue at hand.
Who is harassing who here? You come onto OUR website, and tell us, THE OWNERS, what we can and cannot post here – and yet WE harass YOU?
Please.

Gotta love your comment. It was always the conservatives, the right wingers, who said “America, love it or leave it” during the 60’s.
Whether I disagree with you or not, I wish you would leave only because of your transparent attempt at trolling. If you want an echo chamber, find or build one and shitpost to your heart’s content.
Coming here and telling the editor-in-chief to only post what you want him to post is like going into a coffee shop and demanding that they stop selling crumpets because crumpets aren’t coffee and goddammit you just want to see your personal favorite flavor of coffee in that shop.
Notice how pathetic, childish, and self-centered that sounds? Congratulations, that’s you.
Edited 2016-12-26 01:32 UTC
Out of curiosity Thom, is the political topics of late a symptom of simply not having enough “on-topic” articles to post? IE, if you received additional “on-topic” article submissions or full written posts the political and other “off-topic” posts would wane?
Or is it simply you’ve decided to take the site in a different direction, editorially, and branch out overall?
Serious question, not trying to attack you
Silly editor. What shreds of credibility you have remaining are at risk. Although your rants and mobile fixation are usually just distracting, the OS related material generally outweighs such drivel, but, if you start politically ranting, you’ll prolly bleed readers… ultimately your choice. Maybe you’d rather be blathering on about foreign politics than tech?

Everything in life is politics for leftists. Remember, the overarching priciple for leftism is “the end justifies the means”.

Funny you say that’s the schtick of the left when it was just now the Right that elected Trump to justify not electing Hillary. Now there ARE some legitmate reasons why she wasn’t the most trustworthy candidate ever, but to elect an even more untrustworthy cadidate just because you don’t like the cut of her gib reaks of that level of Hypocrisy that only conservative Americans seem to be able to peddle.
‘don’t like the cut of her gib’…eh, a rabid neo-con, neo-liberal who seemed bent on pushing the world into armageddon…hell no, I don’t like the cut of her gib or the rest of the barbarians. What sort of world do we live in when Trump is actually a better option fr us all…..sick
People made the same prediction about Ronald Reagan.
Last time I checked, the world is still here, but the Berlin Wall is gone.
Did you even read the article? That we’re still here is because we’re lucky.
See also: probability theory.
It’s “luck” because giving credit where credit is due (i.e. admitting Reagan knew what he was doing) would be too much for the New Yorker.
So you didn’t read the article, and you don’t understand probability.
Let me spell it out for you: supposing every year there is a 1% chance of something bad happening. After one century, chances are that bad thing will have happened.
That has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with reality.
I understand probability well enough to know that it isn’t what you’re talking about. You’re referring to the “law of averages.”
There’s also “consider the source,” which you clearly haven’t done. The New Yorker isn’t serious journalism. Its intended audience is New York elites, first and foremost. Anyone who would ever say something respectful about Ronald Reagan’s policy record could never get a job there, except maybe as a janitor (with strict instructions to keep his mouth shut).
Well gee, I guess Eric Schlosser was so naive to cite the testimony of all those military and political figures and nuclear policy experts.
You didn’t read the article.
All good but it was exactly the reverse to what you’re saying.
It was Russia that starter vigorously modernizing its nuclear arsenal long before anybody even thought of Trump comment to power.
They are close the bringing completely new rockets to service while USA have only recently decided about developing replacements to 70ies minutemans, after years of futile efforts to get Russia into further reduction treaties.
It’s also Russia who openly declared that nukes have use *outside* of deterrence in their military strategy.
Recently they have revoked a treaty limits on plutonium production and storage.
Putting a blame on US here is completely uninformed in line with Kremlin propaganda. Sadly you’re turning yourself into Putin’s usefull idiot Thom.
All of this is nice conjecture, but did anyone else notice that Obama wanted to spend $350 billion – $1 Trillion modernising America’s Nuclear weaponry? The fact is the minuteman silos are launching using 8″ floppy disks, at the same time that Russia has a fully modernised Nuclear launch platform. It might be time to upgrade systems which can’t even get spare parts made for them. What I’m seeing so far is a very large media beat up on Trump when he hasn’t been in office yet and he hasn’t passed any laws yet. So far he’s promised through his justice department to investigate H1Bs, at least make an effort to look like they’re trying to keep jobs in the USA. (something Obama never even bothered to do, and yes threatening companies is at least an action, whether it works or not remains to be seen). There’s a lot about Trump I don’t like, but right now the Democrats are looking like a joke. Wait and see, if Trump slips up be ready for it, but don’t pre-judge what’s going to happen based on what your side promised would happen if they won office. Remember Hillary was a shit candidate in her own right, she offered and still offers nothing for anyone who’s job was outsourced out of the United States. She had to be dragged kicking and screaming into offering free college tuition and all the other progressive policies the Democrat platform had this year. A Trump win if it forces the Democrats to really change and consider candidates like Bernie, could end up being a better thing for the Democrats than anyone realises at the moment.
Edited 2016-12-25 12:56 UTC
You’re right. He isn’t President yet. So he should keep his damn mouth shut and stop trying to set Presidential policy until he IS President. I’m sure if the roles were reversed, Tiny Hands Trump would be having kittens that Obama was setting policy before being sworn in.
Remember when conservatives kept referring to Obama as just a “community organizer” and that he was learning on the job?
There are such “nice” countries developing nuclear weapons such as North Korea, Iran ir Pakistan that it isn’t the best time to look weak.
This is ridiculous. Obama won the Nobel Prize before being president while Trump is being attacked no matter what. Some people should cure their Trumpitis.
Beyond destroying cities, nuclear weapons can have some real military purposes. Nagasaki was an important port, Hiroshima an industrial centre with weapons factories.
And nuclear bombs can have different sizes.
Destroying at once a port with aircraft carriers and submarines, an aircraft factory, a whole industrial complex…
In a total war, being able to destroy important assets with only one bomb evading missile defence is of real strategic importance.
With efficient defences, carpet bombing don’t work, the target must be destroyed with only one bomb.
Scary, heh !
I have a feeling trump and his buddy putin are giggling every time they make one of these ridiculous statements.
The problem is not if the arguments are ridiculous, they are, the problem is that the money spent on these things are not going to where they are needed the most, education, health and improvements on infrastructure that would foster the life quality of the whole society. As it is, once more the taxpayer is going to get the least from their contributions and the friends of the king will be lining their pockets.
It’s totally up to you what you post or allow on your own website. However, in my opinion, instead of being called “OSNews” (as it is titled) it should actually be called “Thom’s Blog”. The content used to be interesting to me, but since I don’t agree at all with your leftist political claptrap (and came here for the OS stuff), I’m not going to bother reading this site any more. You won’t care, I’m sure, but I’m suggesting that you at least advertise this as your own blog instead, since that’s all it is now.
If I want to hear Globalist, One-World BS, I’d read the Huffington Post, the New York Times, or Reddit.

This website is our own personal property. We can do whatever the f–k we like here within the boundaries of the law. This includes deleting comments we don’t like, for whatever reason – including because we just really hate people named Tim.
Thank you for making my point.
You are free to come here, but on OUR website, WE decide what gets posted – NOT you. And we are FREE to tell you that certain comments are simply not welcome – and as you can see, there’s no leftist conspiracy or any of that bullshit, because in every one of these threads, there are countless people who disagree with me. It’s just that the endless barrage of people telling us – THE OWNERS OF THIS PLACE – what we supposedly can and cannot post, is f–king dumb.
First of I didn’t know you OWNED the website. Most editors are not necessarily owners of websites.
Second, you have every right to say whatever you want on your website, and can call it whatever you want. But, why not be open and honest about what it is. If you don’t waat to rename the website consider changing the description of it from “aggregating electronic news” to “the owner’s political rants”. I and others who are interested in OS News and “aggregating electronic news” wouldn’t be bothered with it then. Of course there are much better leftists sites such as The Huffington Post, Slate or Salon. I may not agree with them, but at least they make a coherent case.
Now attack me personally, and then delete this.
If a few articles outside of the expected scope of this website is too much for you to bear, it’s probably best for everybody if you stop frequenting this website.
Cool story from a guy with one day old account.
Welcome to politics.osnews.com.
Here we’ll put non-topical news and abuse our viewers purely because we can and we already have a captive audience interested in technical operating systems concepts and we can push our own unrelated ideas.
Nice try, edincleve. Two accounts less than 48 hours old is about as amateur as a troll can get. I bet you don’t even have a bridge to sleep under, poor thing.
In case of nuclear Arms race, I expect it will delay war. If it happens, it will shorten the war. Both are good for humanity. War will happen if it has to happen whether there are nuclear arsenal or not.
Look at middle east: War is happening and Arms race is not the reason and war is going on and on because there are no good arms (or big guys helping doesn’t want to use the major ones) to get the conclusion fast. People are suffering because of it.
OK, I was going to stop to post on this news but your post needs a reply.
Arms race is not the reason of any war I´m aware of. Desire for power, dreams of grandiosity, miscalculation of risks, hysteria, racism or the old “blame others” for your problems is (or all that together, what is the common scenario).
The lack of “good” arms was not the reason the war is taking so long but because it is a urban war, with the population being stuck between a rock and a hard place, on this case, their own people but with different religious variations, but not really big ones. The war happened for many reasons, a “dick” dictator in power, radical people on opposition, American and Saudi disgraceful interventions and insufflation of conflicts on the whole region to gain power/influence, radicalism from all involved. Not even USA was logical/rationale about how things could evolve. What makes me surprised is that after all these years, centuries of wars, we still handle conflict situations trying to apply the same unreliable/catastrophic methods. Anyone that reaches top power on any region does so constructing alliances, convenience ones, between antagonistic groups, if your remove the top the groups will start to fight to reach the top position. Have never seen an outcome that could be assured on these cases, except, of course, chaos and tragedy.
60M died in WWII and 0.18M (0.3%) killed in 2 nuclear bombs and brought the war to closure. It was expected there would have been huge losses for months to come if nuclear bombs were not dropped. So, if you set aside emotions, you would say this was a good thing. By the way, do you hate Harry truman and the Americans who supported his decision?
If you had read more about the decision to use the bombs you would know that the final decision was very controversial. They were not developed to be used against Japan but out of fear that Germans could develop them. At the end of the II War it was clear that the Germany did not have the capacity to do so.
About the death count, yes, looking how the Japanese behave on Iwo Jima and on many other battles there is a suspicion that if USA tried to invade Japan the blood bath would be tremendous but what you think would happen if USA decided to demonstrated its new arm on some uninhabitable island with Japanese observers at a safe distance, do you think they would hesitate to sign a peace deal on the same base they did after seeing how powerful the new bomb was? I don´t think so. The bomb, more than a way to break Japan resistance was a power show for the world, a warning to any other country that USA had the power to decimate anyone that would try to hurt its interests.
I don´t hate the ones that decided to use the bomb, I feel sorry for them and think they had to live with that terrible doubt to the end of their lives “but if ..”. I am happy I never ever have been in such a position to decide the fate of another human being. Obviously, my main condolences are toward the victims.
Using a sentence that is not mine: when you kill someone you take all he has and all he ever could.
I hate wars, I hate our violent nature, I hate the unjustifiable loss of life the happens all the time on our societies for big and small motives. With such powerful brains we should be above any quarrels, we aren’t.
I feel compelled to read about wars since my twelves but never wanted to pursue a military career. For me it was always a “how can we be so mean” thing. I can not watch the documentaries about Omaha without feel ashamed I’m human and, at same time, envy of the courage and honor many of that poor man demonstrated under such terrifying conditions.
of registered voters either failed to vote or did not vote for Donald Trump. He lost the popular vote by a greater margin than any ‘elected’ president in American history.
Not achieving even a plurality indicates that Trump lacks anything close to a mandate from the citizens, and of course, he continues to get savaged on Twitter every day as he spews in 140 character brain farts.
He’s dumb all day long, but appears to have self-described core competencies…ie., grabbing p*ssies, etc.
I have no issue with Trump’s comments in this regard, except that I’m not a fan of the US doing *yet more* military spending when there’s other more vital things in the US that are going unfunded or underfunded.
In principle as I see it either everyone or no one should have nukes, and arms races have driven technological development like crazy in the 20th Century.
Even if we end up having a major world war – we’ll survive. It’s highly unlikely we’ll manage to wipe the human race out that way. We’re pretty darn resilient. And the world needs a major catastrophe and political shakeup every century or two or three. It’s been nearly a century since WWII, time for another shakeup perhaps.
<shrug>
I hear all the time from your types. A bunch of pansies, who cry at the drop of a snowflake. Why not provide details of what you speak of?
And if you are going to claim the Putin hacked the elections, please provide the necessary proof and let the US Govt know, or just shut the hell up, and quit your inane lies and conspiracies.
I was in the booth when I voted, and I can honestly tell you there were no Russians in there with me. I made my decisions, and I voted.
If you want to talk Politics, why not start with proofs and reality, rather than uneducated and idiotic opining???

You are right. This is your site, and you can do as you please. But I, and I am sure others, come here for discussions and news about tech and OS’s.
If I wanted discussions about feminists and Gamersgate, Brexit and racism tropes, and now posts from a liberal Dutchman about president elect Trump here in the US (I am no more qualified to speak on the internal politics of your country than you are of mine), I would be going elsewhere.
So I will be finding my tech news from here on out at other sites that don’t feel the need to lecture a captive audience about their own personal political issues. Professional boundaries are a good thing. You might consider finding some.

Well said
TM99,
I understand the sentiment, but reality might not back that up. Often times the genuinely technical topics, those that you and I like to learn about, really struggle hard to generate enthusiasm. Meanwhile “off topic” opinion pieces often climb past a hundred comments. It’s the exact same phenomenon that caused the media to cover every stupid little thing about Trump while completely glossing over more serious campaign policy issues. While I want to blame the media for that, it’s actually the readers who drove the trend by gobbling it all up and wanting more. The media are merely covering what sells.
Maybe you expect osnews to be above all that for some reason, but all too often when there are “on topic” articles they fail to generate much interest at all. For example it is questionable whether “The little book about OS development” will even get five comments and the only comment there so far is even critical of it. So while I understand your dislike for this political news coverage, you really have to blame us, the readers, as well as Thom.
Also, as an aside, as much as it saddens me to say it: The days when operating system tech was interesting are behind us. The operating system industry is mature now and economics strongly favor consolidation and the status quo. The more money and time we have invested in a particular technology, the less likely it is to change.
While true, the editor of such a site is tasked with generating topics that will stir interest and enthusiasm within the stated field of discussion.
It really doesn’t matter if only five people reply to one topic as long as it is on the subject at hand.
I don’t go to KVR Audio to discuss the latest Kanye Tweets. I don’t go to retro gaming sites to discuss gourmet cuisine.
I and others come here for what is stated as being offered – tech and OS news. When the lead editor allows his own personal political beliefs to dominate such that more and more topics are started on those instead of the site’s purpose, it will come back to bite him on the ass professionally.
Bottom line is if I or others want to read about liberal politics, we can go to AlterNet not OSNews. There are other sites now where I can get the tech news I am seeking and loyalty to this site is meaningless when the supposedly professional editor whines in his own topics about it being his site and he will do what he wants.
Yes, he is entitled to do so. And we are entitled to say bye bye.
Edited 2016-12-28 22:00 UTC
TM99,
Over the years I’ve had ideas for improving osnews, hiring technical writers could really help quality alot. I think osnews could organize special projects and/or fun little competitions, etc. But I really don’t know how to make it financially viable.
Money plays a huge role. For better or worse professional reporters have to compete for viewer attention with low budget bloggers. It is a sad state of affairs when quality reporting is trounced by thoughtless celebrity pieces and top ten lists. Yet this is the direction we’re moving in. Many of my favorite tech publications like byte magazine, pc magazine, dr.dobbs (I loved their technical content!) ceased amid revenue trouble with online business models. Ad revenue is continuing to drop so I think more redundancy is on the horizon before we can reach an economic steady-state equilibrium.
I don’t expect you to have the answers, but I’d be interested in hearing what you would try if you ran your own publication.
