  • Strengths Become Vulnerabilities How a Digital World Disadvantages the United States in Its International Relations
    A HOOVER INSTITUTION ESSAY Strengths Become Vulnerabilities HOW A DIGITAL WORLD DISadVANTAGES THE UNITED STATES IN ITS INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS JACK GOLDSMITH AND STUART RUSSELL Aegis Series Paper No. 1806 The Roman Empire’s multi-continent system of roads effectuated and symbolized Roman military, economic, and cultural power for centuries. Those same roads were eventually used as a pathway for the Goths to attack and destroy the empire.1 The Internet and related digital systems that the United States did so much to create have effectuated and symbolized US military, economic, and cultural power for decades. The question raised by this essay is whether these systems, like the Roman Empire’s roads, will come to be seen as a platform that accelerated US decline. We are not so foolish as to predict that this will happen.2 But this essay does seek to shine light on the manifold and, in the aggregate, underappreciated structural Law and Technology, Security, National challenges that digital systems increasingly present for the United States, especially in its relations with authoritarian adversaries. These problems arise most clearly in the face of the “soft” cyber operations that have been so prevalent and damaging in the United States in recent years: cyber espionage, including the digital theft of public- and private-sector secrets; information operations and propaganda, related to elections; doxing, which is the theft and publication of private information; and relatively low-level cyber disruptions such as denial-of-service and ransomware attacks.3 Our central claim is that the United States is disadvantaged in the face of these soft cyber operations due to constitutive and widely admired features of American society, including the nation’s commitment to free speech, privacy, and the rule of law; its innovative technology firms; its relatively unregulated markets; and its deep digital sophistication.

I DEDICATE this GLOSSARY OF Cheshijie Words to my friends in Mid-Cheshire, and believe, with some pleasure, that these Dialectical Fragments of our old County may now have a chance of not vanishing entirely, amid changes which are rapidly sweeping away the past, and in many cases obliterating words for which there is no substitute, or which are often, with us, better expressed by a single word than elsewhere by a sentence. EGERTON LEIGH. M24873 PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS ATTACHED TO WILBRAHAM'S "CHESHIRE GLOSSARY." Although a Glossary of the Words peculiar to each County of England seems as reasonable an object of curiosity as its History, Antiquities, Climate, and various Productions, yet it has been generally omitted by those persons who have un- dertaken to write the Histories of our different Counties. Now each of these counties has words, if not exclusively peculiar to that county, yet certainly so to that part of the kingdom where it is situated, and some of those words are highly beautiful and of their and expressive ; many phrases, adages, proverbs are well worth recording, and have occupied the attention and engaged the pens of men distinguished for talents and learning, among whom the name of Ray will naturally occur to every Englishman at all conversant with his mother- tongue, his work on Proverbs and on the different Dialects of England being one of the most popular ones in our PRELIMINARY OBSERVATIONS.

  • Evolutionary Games
    Chapter 10: Evolutionary Games We have so far studied games with many different features - simultaneous and sequential moves, zero and non-zero sum payoffs, strategic moves to manipulate rules ofgames to come, one­ shot and repeated play, and so on. However, one ground rule has remained unchanged in all ofour discussions, namely that all the players in all these games are rational- each player has an internally consistent value systems, can calculate the consequences of his strategic choices, and makes the choice that best favors his interests. In this we merely follow the route taken by most of game theory, which was developed mainly by economists. Economics was founded on the dual assumptions of rational behavior and equilibrium. Indeed, these assumptions have proved useful in game theory. We have obtained quite a good understanding of games in which the players participate sufficiently regularly to have learnt the best choices by experience. The assumptions ensure that a player does not attribute any false naivete to his rivals and thus does not get exploited by these rivals. The theory also gives some prescriptive guidance to players as to how they should play. However, other social scientists are much more skeptical ofthe rationality assumption, and therefore ofa theory built upon such a foundation. Economists, too, should not take rationality for granted as we pointed out in Chapter 7. The trouble is finding a viable alternative. While we may not wish to impose conscious and perfectly calculating rationality, we do not want to abandon the idea that some strategies are better than others. We do want good strategies to be rewarded with higher payoffs; we do want players to observe or imitate success, and to experiment with new strategies; we do want good strategies to be used more often, and bad strategies less often, as players gain experience playing the game.

  • Teen Titans Go! to the Movies’
    Movie Review: ‘Teen Titans Go! To the Movies’ NEW YORK — Though a mixed bag of good values and a bit of dodgy humor renders it acceptable but not ideal for kids, sharp satire makes the witty animated comedy “Teen Titans Go! To the Movies” (Warner Bros.) a hoot for their elders. As it skewers a broad range of subjects, from some politicians’ preoccupation with the size of their hands to 1980s-style anthems of affirmation, the film wins smiles and laughs at a remarkably steady pace. Even the plot is a vehicle for mockery. A youthful version of Batman’s sidekick Robin (voice of Scott Menville) becomes obsessed by the fact that, unlike all other superheroes, no movie has ever been made about him. The other members of the ensemble of crime fighters Robin leads — shape-shifting Beast Boy (voice of Greg Cipes), human-mechanical mashup Cyborg (voice of Khary Payton), teleporting Raven (voice of Tara Strong) and alien princess Starfire (voice of Hynden Walch) — don’t share his fixation with Hollywood. But, as supportive pals, they go along for the ride. Through their battle with master mind manipulator Slade (voice of Will Arnett) the team acquires the evil nemesis considered essential to their quest. And they eventually convince Tinseltown director Jade Wilson (voice of Kristen Bell) to feature them. But Robin’s ego and the silliness of his pals get in the way, leading to a breakup of the group. As Robin and his buddies strive to be taken seriously, this big-screen adaptation of the Cartoon Network TV series hilariously harpoons a wide range of pop-culture targets in a manner that will amuse grownups.

María José Álvarez Faedo VºBº: Oviedo, 2012 To comic book creators of yesterday, today and tomorrow. The comics medium is a very specialized area of the Arts, home to many rare and talented blooms and flowering imaginations and it breaks my heart to see so many of our best and brightest bowing down to the same market pressures which drive lowest-common-denominator blockbuster movies and television cop shows. Let's see if we can call time on this trend by demanding and creating big, wild comics which stretch our imaginations. Let's make living breathing, sprawling adventures filled with mind-blowing images of things unseen on Earth. Let's make artefacts that are not faux-games or movies but something other, something so rare and strange it might as well be a window into another universe because that's what it is.
