Wheat is not the only problem, fertilizer prices are also disrupted and it might get worse.

Next to the deaths in Ukraine, we might thank Putin for 100 million plus deaths by famine within the 3 years.
Lost on the news cycle but rich in the subtle language of diplomacy was that notice of the expulsion was delivered while the Russian senior diplomat was conducting a press conference.

>Russia is supposedly a superpower with modern equipment. But their material leaks oil, tyres are in terrible condition food is missing, their logistics don't work out, they have no air superiority, they don't even have secure communication.

I'm having trouble reconciling the above sentences. The equipment they have is the equipment they have, it wasn't a mystery to military analysts or the intelligence community, by any means. That doesn't make their military "weak" any more than it makes the American military "weak" for their results in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Reading through the comments in this thread, I wonder how many people think we're getting unbiased analysis of what's happening over there. Do people really think the Russians are completely flailing here? I have a hard time believing it, myself, but I'm no expert.

Dynamic libraries are not linked at all, so the linker can't do that. The linker just records what shared objects the loader needs to find when the linked artifact itself is loaded, the path to those objects is therefore the responsibility of the loader to resolve and report.

On Linux you can find the shared libraries of a running process in /proc/<PID>/maps, or what libraries will be loaded when the executable runs/shared object is run in the current shell with ldd.
"Jack Copeland (2004) attributes the introduction of the term halting problem to the work of Martin Davis in the 1950s.[1]"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halting_problem

Martin Davis did in the early 1950s after Turing's death.

> and that the halting problem is undecidable follows trivially from that.

Trivially? Took nearly 2 decades after Turing published his paper for Martin Davis to come up with the halting problem. And it required a reformulation of the Turing machine itself. Today, we view 'good' Turing machines as those that stop/halt. Turing viewed 'good' Turing machines as those that continued forever ( aka never stops ).
This is a motte and bailey argument. The motte here is that people living in unjust situations will likely be unable or less able to contribute to the Wikipedia project, which is true. The bailey is that donation funds are being funneled into these initiatives rather than improving Wikipedia itself (see other comments about bug counts and features lacking in Wikipedia, which are not being addressed). The Knowledge Equity fund may or may not improve "racial justice," however they define that - but the strategic goal of improving free access to the world's knowledge is almost certainly better reached by direct improvements to the Wikipedia software and development, and support of open access and free speech causes rather than racially-focused ones (such as, for example, support for Alexandra Elbakyan's endeavors to keep Sci-Hub operational, or speech protection in more repressive governments).
This question doesn’t make any sense, there’s nothing to “test”.

An irrefutable cryptographic timestamp is just that, irrefutable.

Sometimes courts make mistakes, but you can’t expect any useful precedent over something like this.

> West countries have similar laws

Recent Russian law: 15 years imprisonment for protesting or even just calling the war a war.

Western countries have nothing of that scale for such general offences. Neither in law nor in culture.

The nearest things I can think of are holocaust or genocide denial laws, and protest-limiting powers. There are some similarities, but also very significant differences, so I think you are using the fallacy of false equivalence in your argument: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_equivalence
Well Chris, you're not my target audience, and that's ok.

The site is intentionally very over the top, and not everyone will like it. That's sort of the entire point, you take risks and you're always going to have people that dislike it. There's lots of money in the margins, and that's where we want to exist.

Anywho, I'm honestly surprised not more people hated it.
Mesh doesn't scale for large conference calls though. Usually some SFU needs to be in play. But that's only possible if you have Insertable Streams support which for now only Chrome has
Your picture is not of a destroyed wheat field, so what is your point?

Everything in the linked story claims that wheat shortages are due to short-term disruption, not productive capacity having been destroyed.

> How many years or decades will it take to build back that trust?

That’s irrelevant to the discussion. You don’t need to trust someone in order to buy wheat from them. The actual sanctions are what matter, not whatever they “symbolize”. And there’s no reason to believe the sanctions would last for years or decades if Putin were deposed and Russia’s aggressive actions stopped.
I am sorry you are experiencing this.

I suspect that may be on your end.

Well, you're still speaking, aren't you?

> I could say that western agents killed him. It's just as likely.

Sorry, but you are not arguing in good faith here.

It's funny because for sure you will see that as confirmation of your claims of censorship but all you seem to want to do is to project the weirdest kind of positions that have no support in reality and I really can't be bothered to debate if that's the case.

Not all speech is worth engaging.
There's two proposed ways specified. The web way (called "Dynamic") and a fingerprint-based implementation that can work offline ("Static"), for example in approved apps for some organisations: https://github.com/qrdate/qrdate#static-qr-date-v1-spec

It is still a concept as there's no implementation of it besides the tests in the repo, so it would require further refining for production apps. For example with specifying key exchange formats, which we are looking at right now. Anyone with expertise in this field wanting to contribute is welcome!

> Older generation (who are pro-Russian) suggested being careful around young people as they may be hostile to Russians, even those who are running away from Putin

Of course, instead of even attempting to change your country, where there is no war on its territory, you flee. Why should they be kind to you?

> The disheartening thing is that even if you never supported Putin, other countries treat you as enemy.

Silence equals support. Молчание - знак согласия. (A popular russian saying).
If people want to be corralled like sheep, then those corralling them will only be encouraged to do more.

Doing nothing as a Russian means. 1. Being OK with Russians randomly sending missiles into apartment buildings in Ukraine 2. Being OK with wheat prices jumping 50 or 100% causing food shortages and starvation around the world 3. Possible nuclear war.

Whereas if 1 or 2 million Muskovites simply walk downtown and shake their keys, then almost certainly almost none of them would have any problem at all.

Maybe just the football fans of Moscow could do this? Otherwise, your team will only be playing Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan for a while.
I switched to "mostly vegan" a few years ago. My health dramatically improved. Bad cholesterol was halved. I will continue with what works for me. Having a cheeseburger once a year was a treat until the last time I tried one and got physically ill from it. That episode helped me realize how my body had changed and what I was doing to it by eating meat. Dairy products weren't helping, either. I've found oatmilk and almond milk tolerable.
Hmm, I looked into the law, and you seem to be right. Not sure now why the law was treated as the end of ‘independent’ Yandex News back then—though of course it was obvious that the gov wanted to control it and did everything it could think of, to that end. Personally I stopped paying attention to YN after that.

Rukipedia even has a section on incidents suggesting both manual fiddling with the YN output and the government's stuffing of it: https://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/Яндекс.Новости#Критика

As for the example you cite: if it was found just in the ‘news search’, then it's possibly not from a source ‘certified’ for appearing in the main news feed—from what I've read, it seems that the search includes many more sources than the feed, and is possibly not regulated by that law.
I apologize in advance for some emotion that'll come out in the rest of this comment, but I feel the need to say it.

I wish Russian people would then stop telling me all about how most Russians are against Putin and hate him, and then act completely helpless at the thought of doing anything about it. They are just empty words, then, because they're followed by plenty of excuses for inaction. My grandfather is spending another war hiding from bombs in a basement, but Russian people get to catch trains to Finland while telling us platitudes about how "most" of them are _so_ against Putin.
We are talking about the hypothesis that the invasion ends and relations are normalized.
The Soviet Union was ended from within... Thanks for proving my point.
Beef is up too.
And consider throughout history what people have done when their government got more authoritarian and their nation's economy collapsed. Or just when the latter happens.

MSC3401 specifically provides for this UX, with the `m.intent` field used when you instantiate an `m.call` within a room (https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/blob/mat...):

* `m.intent` to describe the intended UX for handling the call. One of:

1. `m.ring` if the call is meant to cause the room participants devices to ring (e.g. 1:1 call or group call)

2. `m.prompt` is the call should be presented as a conference call which users in the room are prompted to connect to

3. `m.room` if the call should be presented as a voice/video channel in which the user is immediately immersed on selecting the room.

Element Call implements `m.room` effectively (in that you get slung directly into the call once you click on the link). Once we integrate this into Element itself, then the plan is to support all three different intent types: `m.ring` for "group calls", `m.prompt` for "conferences" and `m.room` for discord-style voice/video rooms.

One possibility is that Yanukovich is more humane than putin or lukashenko. I don't know enough about him to compare but the last two are merciless dictators.
Did you double-check the region in which you're searching? By default it shows trends for where Google thinks you are. I had to use Google Translate to get terms to search in Russian, so take my results with a grain of salt, but, even so, I was generally able to get some nice hockey sticks when I told Google to show me what people in Russia are searching for instead of what Russian-speaking people in the USA are searching for.
> Responsibility for this war rests with Russia and Russia alone. But that should not obscure the fact that NATO, led by Washington, laid the groundwork for confrontation with a series of missteps after the breakup of the Soviet Union, provocations that fueled Russian resentment and fears of Western encirclement. First came the ill-advised expansion of NATO in the late 1990s, which was criticized not only by the left, but by a long and impressive list of former establishment cold warriors, including George Kennan, Richard Pipes, Sam Nunn, and many more.

In the spirit of adult conversation: 1990s enlargement of NATO was and is 90%+ popular in these countries. Exactly because we knew Russia will at some point try to recreate USSR/Tzar Russia/whatever the new name is. Russian elites think they have "the right" to govern these lands (go read Dugin if you disagree). And Russian government after fall of USSR means limited democracy at best, authoritarian government most likely, totalitarianism at worst.

These fears were portrayed by western Europe and even USA as "russophobia" and "eastern post-communist paranoia". Germans even a month ago treated them as such. I think this opinion should be reevaluated in the light of 3 wars Russia started since 2008 and especially this invasion of Ukraine. It's not paranoia. It's realism.

It was the west that was mistaken. There should be admission. And reevaluation of many conclusions based on that wrong opinion. I think it is happening, but this article makes me doubt that.

The hope that Russia will reform itself into a proper democracy, or even that it will become a rational authoritarian country you can make business with - it's not realistic. It could be possible if Russia went through the same thing that Germany and Japan did after WW2. Occupation, division, reeducation, economic miracle, business as usual.

But Russia didn't. USSR fell by itself and we just moved on straight to business as usual. So they predictably made a whole mythology about betrayal, decadent liberal west, traditional values, holy purpose of Russia, revenge and creating conservative heaven on earth. West made Hitler 2.0. But not because it "provoked" Russia. Provocation wasn't needed. Fall of the USSR was all the provocation necessary. The opposite - the mistake was letting the hate and misfortune after cold war loss fester without dealing with it.

I understand that USA might not want to defend post-communist countries from Russia. But there's a difference between saying "we don't want to defend you" and "defending you is a mistake because it provokes Russia". The mistake was the opposite.

PS if you take anything from this wall of text - go read Dugin. And compare to Main Kampf. Elites of Russia all read Dugin.

Russia thinks it owns this land. Anything that isn't Warsaw Pact 2.0 will "provoke them". They aren't hiding this BTW. If "the west" thinks that we should just give up independence to let them avoid WW3 - sorry but that's not going to happen. Nobody who experienced real democracy wants back into "ruskiy mir".

I don't know whether or not normalizing such behavior is sane, especially during a kill/be-killed war scenario.
first of all this is absolutely not true, any good wizard spends 99% of their time in the most inconspicuous dirty clothing. Where do you think they get their spells, just lie down and think "I wonder how I would summon a polar bear?" They have to go out and learn that stuff in dirty bars tracking down people who once knew a guy who knew a guy who once thought they saw a polar bear. You try turning that into a summoning spell my friend.

Secondly, as for the actual tower a wizard's tower just reflects their power, the more they've learned the more they see. There is a tower that is a vertical line up to heaven itself, you could stand next to it crane your neck up until it hurts and ask "how the fuck did she get up there?" The answer was that she read every book in the library.

these other answers about status or power miss the big picture. wizards are not elected nor appointed by any king. They go out and they learn magic based on what is real and what works.

If it doesn't work, it's not magic. Anyone can be a wizard based on casting spells that work. It's the most egalitarian profession that ever existed.

The tower is a natural byproduct of commitment to the craft of skill and magic.

Leaving is an effective way of changing it.
Commodity speculators can push prices up for sure.

But they are also huge markets where most buyer/sellers actually intend to use the product. On top of that, global inflation was already pushing up price of most commodities (excess goods spending due to govt stimulus, among other things, such as substitution).

Oil is a much more dire situation, as demand is increasing faster than structural supply. Higher oil does push people towards renewables, but at large cost to the poor. Also acts as multiplier to pretty much all other goods production.
The Rise of Sanctions as a Tool of Modern War

My experience as well. Any scamming operation in people's inbox and either the operators are earning nothing or are smart enough to use separate blockchain addresses (unlikely if you ask me).

On the other hand, one YouTube livestream playing some Musk talk and boom, dozens of thousands of dollars minimum. YouTube's algorithm really likes to push livestreams with thousands of views.

Just that as they right now should be walking into Moscow to show their discontent, then I am performing my discontent by not liking Russians, right now.
Any actions taken by "the West" will be turned into propaganda inside Russia. Economic sanctions are the only action that won't automatically lead to nuclear war or embolden Putin to try to retake all the USSR's former vassal states.

Russia invaded a neighboring country and is racking up the war crimes against civilians there. A Russian teenager unable to play XBox is maybe slightly less important than the indiscriminate shelling of hospitals and nuclear power plants.
>>>Can you say what exactly here is a straight up lie?

Sure, right here: “Defending the Zmiinyi Island, all our border guards died a heroic death,” Zelensky said.
and: The guards will posthumously receive the "Hero of Ukraine," the highest honor Ukraine can bestow, Zelenskyy said. from ( https://www.foxnews.com/world/snake-island-soldiers-russian-... )

His comments left no room for ambiguity. How do you award medals posthumously without CONFIRMATION of death?

Now compare that to the military's actual statement: Ukraine’s State Border Guard Service took to Facebook to announce Snake Island had been captured and its infrastructure destroyed by shelling from a Russian ship on Thursday, adding communication with the guards had been lost.

THAT is the correct way to release a SITREP or pass message traffic: communicate only what you can verify to be true. The Border Guards are closer to the Ground Truth (tm) than the Head of State, so that's the message that should have been propagated, accurately, at all levels. But that's not a good enough morale booster, so some embellishment worked its way in as the story floated up the chain of command. And the consequence is now the Ukrainian Commander-in-Chief has egg on his face. That should NEVER happen.

I've spent years working with a Corps-level Operations Center, including months serving as the Senior Watch Officer. I've seen a LOT of sloppy messaging, confusion, and friction. We have battle drills that we rehearse for casualty reporting, CSAR (Combat Search & Rescue), and TRAP (Tactical Recovery of Aircraft Personnel). Clarity of information is paramount, and any decent Battle Captain (what the Army calls a Watch Officer) should know to ask "Who did this report come from?" and "How do we know that's true?" "Can we VERIFY that?" Or, for a bit of levity: https://youtu.be/oqrO1RtN4gA Did you see...the body? You don't make assumptions, and you don't put your personnel spin on reporting.

The story went from "they lost comms" to "they were Killed in Action and we must award them the highest honors" in the blink of an eye. For them to be lying, is the more charitable assessment of events: the alternative, widespread incompetence from their Operations officers to their Public Affairs/Communications Strategy staff, would be far far worse.
i assume this is sarcasm which is unhelpful.

the original claim was to trust no one. my comment was the government should also not be trusted.

Most of cryptography can in theory always be brute-forced or simply guessed. There is no absolute guarantee, though you can get very very close. And there are other ways around it, such as keys getting leaked.

To be fair, if the best endorsement you can provide for the Economist is that they tend to be fairly accurate, then it doubles my resolve to be skeptical and vigilant of any claims made by media.

This article sounds reasonable, even logical - and it may be, but I was manipulated by so much propaganda in the past weeks about the Ukraine situation that I no longer trust any source without verification from multiple sources that I seek out.

Propaganda is by far most effective on those who believe themselves immune to its effects. The first casualty of war is the truth.

For example, how many of you believe you are not manipulated by Ads and yet companies spent billions and billions to advertise to you. Why would they do that if it had no impact?
