Ask HN: As non-nuke power, why fight a nuke power, esp if you have an easy out?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30637859The easy out for Ukraine was to just go neutral, like Austria.Then live happily ever after.And, ps, your enemy has a trump card in the form of a massive nuclear weapon stash -- maybe the largest in the world -- you want to force him to play his trump card?The US is the only country to have detonated nukes in a war situation -- there is already precedent -- the world did not end -- it might not end this time, too. Maybe. Nuclear weapon use is definitely on the table.You, as Ukraine, do not have nukes -- but you fight a nuclear power anyways? Whut?Instead, if you went neutral, you could lead the vanguard in establishing nuclear-free zones in Europe.

Sports Math at U.S. Collegeshttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25095980College coaches are supposedly big on math. Each week, college football coaches vote for the best teams in the country. It is fairly common to see some teams get ranked below other teams with more losses. This is often explained by strength of schedule. There are complicated algorithms attempting to calculate a team's strength of schedule.But do any of the coaches (or their proxies) who vote understand those algorithms? Can any of them explain why 3-0 Ohio State is ranked #3? OSU has beaten 0-3 Penn State, 1-2 Nebraska (whos only win was against Penn State) and 1-2 Rutgers. Is that really a stronger schedule than 7-1 Clemson (only loss to #2 Notre Dame), or 6-0 Cincinnati's? Or 5-1 Texas A&M's (loss to #1 Alabama, win against #4 Florida) or 8-0 BYU with a win against #21 Boise State?How is beating Penn State and Nebraska mathematically more impressive than beating Florida or Boise State?Can HN explain the math?
