That assumes that you can give the trust your copyright. This is not always possible.
Interns often get extra perks. Regular employees didn’t get the privilege of attending executive speaker series.
Operating satellites at that altitude would become dangerous, launching through it would be no problem. Debris decays more quickly the lower it is in the atmosphere (the thermosphere extends to ~600km for example).
Why would they ever give them up? Unless they get so thoroughly routed in a war that they have no choice, it just won't happen because it is the end of sovereignty.
An Mango, H&M and many other.

They say that foreign companies operating in Russia were required by the Putin's government to change their euros for rubles in three days if they want to stand open. Closing is the logical choice.
Life expectancy of a 66 year old is 83.
That doesn't mean he has a 50% chance of dying in 4 years.

That avg expectancy of 73 includes all the people that die young, etc.

"Actuarial tables" is the term you're looking for, if you're curious how long a particular person at a particular age might live.

https://www.ssa.gov/oact/STATS/table4c6.html

In the US a person who is currently 69 years old will live, on average, for another 17.53 years.

In Russia the average expectancy is a little shorter, but also Putin is not an average person. By all accounts he seems pretty healthy, and obviously he has unlimited access to the best healthcare money can buy.
I'm hitting Poe's Law here, are you joking?

Your average coding bootcamp kid cracking away in node and invoking the builtin regex engine has no idea what any of those words mean.

To those programmers the words "regular expression" have become completely separated from their original etymology in lexical analysis. To them a regex means "input to a regex engine", and thus the term "use a regular expression" means "use a regex engine". It could be "use a froofroo boingo", for all the meaning the words hold. "Regular expression" just became the vernacular due to its origination in lexical analysis.
Well, IKEA leaving is not a big issue - making furniture is easy and doesn't require high-tech. Thus, in one year or two nobody will even remember them. The industries that require technology, like electronics, biotechnology, healthcare - those will be permanently crippled, maybe completely eliminated.
the fcc does that every single day.
Nonsense. There are multiple vendors for rental cars. When something like this happens, use another vendor. Else there's no economic reason for Hertz to change, and overall consumer conditions get worse.
Photos of queues in shops and empty shelves is the only resistance left.
Any non-official information about the war is punishable with 15 years in prison camps.

What's happening in Ukraine is a tragedy, but what's happening in Russia as a result of sanctions is quite tragic in itself.

Currency is in free fall, hundreds of companies closed shops and offices, many will lose their jobs, etc.

This will hit marriages and relationships. Men become depressed and paralyzed when they lose their incomes. So just like in the 90s, the economic collapse will hit women of Russia hard.

The smartest and most beautiful women - aka the ones used to live in abundance who got all the attention, etc will try to leave the country.
'Russian' is now quite a bad word for anyone in Europe, so women will have a hard time finding and maintaining European men (of course any men will take a beautiful woman for sex, but providing for her long term is another thing).

They say war is men protecting their women and children from the invading men.
But in this situation there will be Russian women who leave their men for foreign men.

As much as I disagree with Russia's actions and even if the majority of Russians support the war (are afraid of the criminals running the country), I still feel sad for what these families are about to experience this year.
While not all information is correct, I don't see Ukrainians overstating that they are facing existencial risk. The country is being attacked, million people are refugees now, thousands dead, probably even more injured, maimed, civilians are being killed, their houses destroyed.

The nuclear power plant was attacked, what is incorrect about that?

It is clear that Russia has started to war to deprive Ukraine to their independence. There is no doubt about that.
I don’t believe the situation is temporary. All major industries are cutting ties with Russia. SWIFT took 100 years to create, even if we allow it back, Russia won’t trust us, ever.

It looks to me like our European leaders are escalating in a specific way that ensures we are locked in a feud with Russia for decades to come, in such a way that we can’t renew relationships even if Putin dies and if they pay war damages (which they won’t be able to pay because of their damaged economy - Ow, sweet irony of 1928…).

I wonder whether we, European people, have an interest into making a 50-years war with Russia, like our leaders are deciding.

Or, in other words, where can I emigrate, from France.
You can't literally kill a FOSS project like you can with proprietary, but it can go away if nobody else wants to maintain it.

FOSS projects die all the time. You might want to write a patch here and there, but do you want to do all the DevOps, pay for hosting, manage testing, etc?

Maintaining a project kinda sucks.
Is it "heroic" to enter a war with no official support from the West then call on the West to help you? This isn't a movie. This is people dying because he won't give up his right-wing dream of a "free Ukraine" that will still have to do business with its giant neighbor and will always be under that neighbor's influence. Canada is the same for the US. It needs to play the game. Taiwan is the same for China. It plays the game.

Is it "heroic" to stop men from leaving the country so they can fight a war they have no interest in fighting? That seems a bit like he's infringing on their freedom, no? Why is this ignored?

I think OP wanted to make a point that Z is not all sunshine and rainbows.
They're clearly still doing what they can... There is a big long story about a mother who has had to have a funeral for her soldier son who has died but the authorities won't give the body back or any details about how he died.
Yandex predates Google.

So the question is not really making 90% of people switch from Google but making 90% of people stay on Yandex. Inertia is a pretty big stumbling block.

There is also potential for local differentiation to be much stronger. Naver in South Korea manages to achieve this.
If you want to continue down the rabbit hole of things pointing in the general direction of Putin being a crook, my favourite is the one about the apartment building bombings used to justify the Chechen war: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_apartment_bombings
I was super interested in Daniel Tammet, and read his book in the past.

But then I read Moonwalking with Einstein, about a journalist's attempt to win the US memory championship. Most of the book is just about that, but he does spend a chapter critizing Daniel Tammet, basically accusing him of lying about his condition and using simple mnemonic tricks to do his "feats of memory". His case is very compelling (e.g., Tammet being inconsistent in answering how numbers "look like" in different interviews, forum posts by Tammet on mnemonic techniques before he was famous, etc).
I got computer glasses and wear them all the time when at home now. The other pair has become my “outdoor” glasses.
Just like all those Irish tech giants.
I feel this is the real selling point of democracy and free media, its hard for a foreign nation to buy an entire electorate.

Several nations seem to be setting themselves up for irrelevence by undermining democracy, usually at the behest of powerful groups within the country, but to do so they basically need to pay a bunch of people to tell lies. They've then created a network that external corporations and government actors can take advantage of. If the Russian news suddenly started telling the truth mixed with 30% Chinese propaganda, then to the average Russian that would be noticeably more true than what they are getting now.

Would the presenters tell blatant Chinese lies to decieve their people? Well apart from the chinese bit they obviously do, so you basically hope they're all actually insane true-believers, because if theyre just ordinary Russians spreading obvious BS in return for a decent paycheck then thats an obvious weak point for the nation.

And Russia knows this is viable, as they do it to other nations.
Times like this need these words from Charlie Chaplin (1940)
There are plenty of sovereign countries that do not have nuclear weapons. It would be the end of the imperialist ambitions.
Kessler syndrome is kind of a middlebrow concern people love to bring up because they heard about it one time, but I have yet to see any argument that it is a realistic problem for Starlink based on real calculations. The number of Starlink satellites is large compared to previous constellations, but still tiny compared to space which is of course vast. The low orbits used by Starlink are automatically cleaned up by the atmosphere. And even if there were debris clouds in low orbit it wouldn't lock out space access as it would still be possible to launch into higher orbits. The probability of collision is negligible if you're only passing through.
If I die, copyright would pass on to my heirs, and they could license it to others (until 70 years after my death, it would pass into public domain).
I am against serifs but for monospace fonts I find it to be a necessity. For me the examples are very hard to read.
That's not a paintbrush I would use.

The United States has conducted many unjust wars (killing many civilians) that I certainly don't support and really have no power to stop.
How does this perform on larger embedded systems where you have a fair amount of memory but no Rust toolchain with good support?

Could it possibly be useful there?

I suspect just using a tiny Lua/JS/Python would be better but maybe in some super niche case this could have a use. Probably not though.
They never had it, thus does not meet the definition of theft.
Were all of them really covers? If I were rich, I would love to be able to pursue some craft without caring about profits. In fact that is exactly what every human should be able to do, instead of slaving away their living hours to some job.
Ask HN: Why is crypto/Web3 so complex?
To the best of my knowledge, dedicated CSAM sites in the clearnet have all but gone - every hoster in the world will cut you off for that, even the "bulletproof" hosters that claim to ignore piracy and dealing in stolen credentials all ban CSAM and legal-but-close content like "lolita" etc. simply because of the attention it draws from law enforcement.

They're all on TOR now, and even there they get regularly busted due to shoddy opsec.
> Many companies, like Netflix, are suspending services because they have no way of getting paid anymore. As of this week, Russians don't have credit cards or convertible currency anymore.

That's not true. International payments with cards issued by non-sanctioned banks continue to work.
> At which point there would be an opportunity for a clean reset in relations.

No. All major industries are breaking up contracts with the Russians. SWIFT took a century to build. None of that is coming back. Russia can never trust Europe again, and no country can trust Cloud products anymore, seeing how many Russian people are getting HTTP 410 from Cloud products.
Suppose the anarcho-capitalists somehow gain political power, and get to actually implement their ideas. They privatise the police, the prisons, and the court system, setting up a free market of competing privately-owned police corporations, prison corporations, and court corporations. They also re-legalise imprisonment for debt, because freedom of contract is a holy and sacred thing ("you aren't really free if you aren't free to contract away your freedom"). Finding yourself on hard times in the new order, your borrow some money from a privately-owned bank; the bank has put an imprisonment-for-debt clause in its loan contract, which you don't like, but you can't find any other lender willing to lend to you without one, and you really need the money. Unsurprisingly, you soon find yourself unable to make the repayments. The privately-owned bank goes to a privately-owned court, and successfully applies for an order for your imprisonment; the bank sends the court order to a privately-owned police force, who arrest you and take you to a privately-owned prison. The court costs, police costs, and imprisonment costs have all been added to your debt. The privately-owned prison sends you to work in a privately-owned slave labour factory. In theory, you can get out at any time if you just repay your ever-growing debt; in practice, you know you'll never be able to repay it, so you'll be here for the rest of your life. But, it ain't too bad – no government did this to you, no monopoly of force was used against you. There are other court companies and police companies, and if only you could have afforded their services, they would have defended you against all this. That all makes it okay, doesn't it now?
Interesting thought on how Putin might get out of this. But it should be quite visible, whether this is just an act (like exchanging office with Medvedjev some years back) or a real government change.
Who considers CSAM protect free speech?
Perhaps Russia can get electronics, biotechnology, and healthcare supplies where the US gets their's: China.

Are Russia and China on good terms these days? Does Russia have anything to trade with China for yuan so they can buy those Chinese goods?

I guess we'll find out. Or maybe the US tries to sanction China for freely trading with those evil Russians? Interesting times ahead…
So now we are all of a sudden in the "might come to a halt" hypothetical. Ok. First of all, at least 40% of the planes are home-built, so aviation in Russia most certainly will not come to a halt.

Then, how do you picture 500 planes getting returned and leasing companies instantly re-leasing them to other customers to keep their own business afloat? Even if that does happen, worst case, that will reduce Russian air traffic to something like Covid days-level. There are a lot of hypotheticals in this thread, facts on the ground right now are, the planes are flying, cargo ships are delivering and all but 7 banks are moving the money across the borders just fine.

They'll most probably block it, too, I'll give it a day or two. It also depends how the negotiations with the Ukrainian side go over the weekend.
if you regard pure math as "the real thing" when it comes to mathematics, then it is a shame in my country that the first exposure that students have to this is in 2nd year of university studies, if they opt in to analysis & abstract algebra. primary school, high school and the more applied university classes drill rote learning and ability to compute, but don't teach ability to work with abstractions, unpack definitions, extend definitions to new settings, search for, present and critique proofs. from the perspective of wanting to share the beauty of pure math with a wider audience, it'd be great to introduce earlier (at least optionally).

on another hand, introducing widely applicable tools for conducting and evaluating experiments would probably be far more useful to the world -- i'd be tempted to chuck out or defer a lot of early rote learning of trig, calculus, integration and replace them with probability, statistics, causal inference, experimental design. or at least offer both as different streams. arguably, this would be more useful to a lot more people than concentrating on pure math.
It's your personal problem that neo-nazi equals hating jews. As someone who worked with keeping young men away from neo-nazi groups in the past - it's just not true for many groups. The real picture is much more complicated and is more often than not related to simple hate. If you have someone closer to you to hate, every other topic or nationality takes a backseat. Russian imperialism is closer to these groups than anything else now.
They might be estimating how tech costs (salaries) have increased rather than general inflation.
In a time where C++ exists, C still gets used. C interop is even easier in C++ than Rust IIRC, so given the choice, C++ would get the nod much earlier I'd imagine.

That said, people use C because it forgoes abstractions and complications. Neither C++ nor Rust provide that experience. I think Go comes the closest, while being a bit nicer to work with overall.
That's not an open source license. Open source means that people can take your source code, fork it, and distribute their own version of the code.

Note, this is not a complaint about your license, which seems very fair. But I don't think you can call the code open source with that license. Source available is probably the correct term.

EDIT: assumed from your post that you're involved in this library. Apologies if that's not correct
Could you use dog's blood for transfusion? No. But you could use chimpanzee blood in humans.
Just want to mention that Cargo (don't know about others like NPM) handles it a bit differently.

You are quite flexible in specifying the versions of your direct dependencies and you can fix major, minor or patch versions or do even more complex stuff with version ranges (even though I see the latter rarely used in practice).

In addition, different versions of the same crate can coexist (but their types are considered distinct). So if I directly use libparser 1.1.1 but one of my dependencies uses libparser 1.2.3 that's totally fine. The version of my direct dependency won't silently be upgraded (assuming you fixed the minor or even the patch version when specifying that dependency).
> its hard for a foreign nation to buy an entire electorate

You sure? According to the US government, a few hundred thousand dollars on Facebook ads was enough to buy a US President (c.f Trump, Donald J).
thanks for the info.

Yeah it's not like I have anyone to talk to lol I don't plan on chatting up a storm. I figured it is better than the crappy plastic hand crank radio thing I have and to me this is pretty long tail risk likely never be in that much of a bad situation.

Plus ham is interesting to me so who knows maybe in the future worth investing the time.
APIs evolve, sometimes in small steps and sometimes with major changes. Pedantic semver fails at communicating that difference.
> I appreciate and applaud your ethos.

100% agree with this sentiment. People should not have to justify having other passions, charitable, artistic or political pursuits. All the best teams that I have worked on, are/were big mix of backgrounds and the fresh blood brings new ideas to the table.
These kind of photos always impress me about the number of people who are on their phones. We dont live in countries anymore, we live in screens with our legs on some kind of ground. I hope it's not irreversibly long until these stores can be reopened. We should stop pretending we re living in the cold war era, world is always new. Russia has shown itself to be an irresponsible holder of nukes. After the fall of putin regime it has to rejoin the rest of the world as just a 'country'
Its a fun bet and even Carmack was caught by surprise when realtime raytracing came along. He was wrong then and he was also the first to admit it.
Which totally makes sense. Russia is a dictatorship waging a war of aggression a democratic neighbour. Why should we give their state propaganda outlets any amplification?
Do you think that's going to stop when probably already over crowded Russian jails fill up with dissidents?
Whether a disease is debilitating doesn't have any dependency on it's treatability. Your assertion that treatable diseases aren't debilitating is just a misunderstanding of the words in the language you're using, whether willful or accidental.
Russian propaganda. Russia doesn't have any functional media at the moment.
Bezos was like a VP at DE Shaw, that investment wasn't make or break, it does offload some risk. Someone else stated his parents invested in a later round with professional investors. It's odd how people focus on a parents investment, ignoring he was already probably in the top 1-2% in terms of income and so was his wife.
If some of the other threads are anything to go by, Russian tech people are looking to leave Russia.
That only changes the orthography, which while annoying is a lot less of an issue for mutual intelligibility than the vocabulary of English...

yeah it is a hard read. a relatively easier read is PLFA in Agda.
This would fall under anti-corruption laws, it's a legal matter and Google is obligated to show due diligence in investigating any disclosures, in any form they may appear.
I wonder how hard it would be to hit them though. They don't have full control over the air. Su-35 aircraft have been getting shot down. Are they still firing cruise missiles? How accurate are they? If it were trivial to locate them and take them out, wouldn't they have done that already?
As one of Novaya backers, I voted for it to continue operations, even under the censorship. The Novaya team and their readers are bright people who can write and read between the lines, a working independent media of any form, not blocked by roskomnadzor, is more valuable than none. The alternative was to shut down and wait until the situation resolves. I admire their resolve.
C++ is way more complicated than Rust though.
How to create a no-fly zone over Ukraine, in five steps
Absolutely agree. Also, if you expect people to be switched on at 9pm, be flexible about them not responding first thing the next morning.

I interviewed with a company who is on the west coast. I'm in Ireland. We overlap for a few hours during their morning. Every interview was scheduled during their afternoon. I always asked to move it to an earlier spot. Seems like this conscious awareness of other people isn't automatic.

My view: if you're a global company, you need to instill in your employees a respect for time zones. You need your employees to be aware of where their colleagues are and what their "normal" working hours are. You to be intentional about this and actually say it. At a previous company the CEO actually took a minute during an all-hands to say "Look everyone, we're a global company now and we're hiring like crazy in Europe. Be respectful of timezones. If you need to talk to a colleague in Europe, do it during your morning". That was enough to ensure that most of my meetings happened before 5pm local time, and when they didn't, you'd have at least one person during the meeting say things like "let's cover X first so @raffraffraff can get off the call early" or "guys, we're going off-topic and we've got colleagues from Europe on the call". It normalised consideration.
You're not old fashioned, you're just pro-censorship.
nginx was pretty Russian IIRC
Of course it can, but most probably it won't do it directly, but through one of its oligarchs.
Not completly related, but I have a yandex email address and I wonder if I'm eventually going to loose access yo it, or be sigmatize for having it.

Obviously there are worse things to worry about, but it's an unintended consequences of the situation.
Not sure yet if this is shaping up to be another round of wild 90s or Stalinist times in Russia. It's kind of looking like a bizarre mix of both with political incarcerations back in play and government shutting down press. To piss away 2 decades of progress in 1 week is pretty unbelievable. Hard to believe that Putin did not see this coming...
