North-Korea and it's relationship to other world are always been problematic. And now the leader of that country have shown, that problems are not over yet. This small country has shown again that they are capable of surprising maneuvers in international area in the very short period, and now the top meeting between the leaders of the North-Korea and the United States have been treated because South-Korea and United States have had military exercise together. This is very well known act from the North-Korea's leader, because of those persons.


They are trying to blackmail other countries by delaying the meetings, and of course, the trust between other nations and the North-Korea is not very good. Even if some contracts can be made, the North-Korean way has been, that they would speak other and do other. That states nuclear program is the very good example of that. North Korean government undersign the treaty, that they would not make nuclear weapons, and after that, they just dug the tunnels to that nuclear plant and continued the project.


The North-Korean way to think that single person doesn't mean anything is the very bad thing, and sometimes I have thought, how many deaths that nuclear program has caused in that country? Or did they actually care about safety instructions, what are given for work with radioactive material? When we are thinking about the complicated relationship with North Korean government and the international community, we must say that is quite complicated. The reason for that is otherwise that state has many very bad human rights problems and loss of food is the big problem in that country, but their leaders live in the middle of outstanding luxury.


Also, political arrests and sending people to prison camps for rest of their life for crimes like looking western television or visiting foreign homepages is quite common. Otherwise, that is independent, what have it's own rights. And this makes the relations with this country very problematic. The western world should show to others, that this kind of way to rule the nation is not tolerable. But otherwise many western leaders would accept silently the occupation of Gaza. And this is also very complicated situation because Palestinians are of course right to want better treatment, but sometimes there is nobody in the Middle-East who is really interested their position.


When we are talking about Palestinian refugee camps those people have kept in there because of political reasons, that some Arab leaders could use them to turn their own people eyes of their authoritative way to rule the countries. And because of that Israel has allowed occupying the Gaza area. That has caused riots suffering and deaths in that area and the major threat in the eyes of the Israeli government is that if they would give independence to Gaza, would that slip to rule under radical Islamist government.


When we are thinking about the situation in the Gaza area, we must know that there is a quite democratic actor in the opponent. Also, the Internet have opened the scenes of that area and the violence between Palestinians and Israel like shooting unarmed protesters in the middle of normal western people live, but then we can think how many people have died in that area before the Internet, and could the shooters, who targeted the fire to protesters continue their careers in some governmental organizations? But then we must know that in many Arab nations Palestinians doesn't have even id-papers, and in officially they are not even existed.


That means that those people could be murdered and nobody ever asked, what happened as example Palestinians, who were rioted against the Syrian army in 1980's. When we are returning to North-Korea, could we even know about the prison camps in that country? Same way we can ask, would the situation in Gaza or Syria kept off the public eye if there would be no Internet? Those are good questions for thinking when we next time look at the situation in Gaza, Syria or North-Korea. Or would they just keep out of TV with comments that there have been disorders in some area, and the army has taken the situation under the control?

The problems with automation and society

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.fi/p/the-problems-with-automation-and-society.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

In this text, I would handle the automation mainly in the visual angle of sociology and national security. When we are thinking about the use of robots as the production, we must understand the reason, why they are so popular. Robots can make almost everything in production side better than human, and there would no need to pay salaries for the machines. Robots never make mistakes, the people who make programs for robots are making mistakes, and this is one of the worst weakness of those machines.


There is a technique called "CAM", what means "Computer Aided Manufacturing". This term means technology, where the CAD (Computer Aided Design) picture would send straight to the robots, and and then automatized manufacturing process would start. The most advanced version of CAM is 3D printing technology, what allows to make any product by using the printer, what makes 3D objects by using steel, plastic or carbon fiber.


The problem with computers is that they would not have imagined, and they would not actually think anything. This means that if there is an error in the CAD picture, what was imputed to manufacturing robots is an error and nobody notices it, would the large series of those products sour, and that would make worse for the company than any human worker ever can make. In this scenario, even millions of products could be usefulness, because some engineer has made mistake while making the picture for robots.  Those printers are very interested in military forces because they allow making military products like Drones and even heavy combat equipment like tanks in the operational area.


Those systems might also bring the very dangerous element to war because it allows making "black systems" what means airplanes and other equipment, what is not found in the inventory of military forces. And if the system can make spare parts for aircraft or tanks, could those parts used also for making complete products. But when we are thinking the problems of the automation in the social angle of view, we must understand that growing population of the human race, would need something to do. If we are thinking about "ghost factories", where is only robot workers, we are facing the problems of mass unemployment.


People need something to do, and if they would not get any work, they would start to hang in shopping centers. In the works cases, what have seen in books and some futuristic movies all workers have been replaced by robots. And in this kind of version of the production, the profits what company get is very high. Robots can work non-stop and when there is no need for production, would the lines shut down. And the company doesn't have then pay even the electric bill. But in this scenario, there would no need for the human workers, and this would mean massive social problems in the society. This scenario is the highest level of capitalism, what man can ever imagine.
