> But I grew up mostly with American propoganda. I didn't know that the US had a long history of overthrowing governments in the Middle East and South America, and generally meddling in their affairs.

I'm sorry, but this is whataboutism in its full glory.

The US has a free press, and its unfortunate history of overthrowing or supporting governments was and is well documented by the press and by historians in the United States. This documentation and publication resulted in many public scandals, lawsuits, and public intrigue, particularly through the 1960s to 1980s when the US's activities in this regard were perhaps that their peak. The resulting history is taught in universities and in elementary schools across the USA.

Now, there are well-known political parties or other people with a vested interest in spinning things in their own way, as is the case in any country, but if you think the United States press is anything like the press in Russia, or that its public is anywhere as ignorant of the facts as the public in Russia and similar countries, or if you felt you were unaware of the US history in this regard while it was going on, then you perhaps led a sheltered life. But it wasn't for lack of trying on part of the US press.
free software means free code not free development (both as in freedom).

It would be free even if they intentionally and maliciously refactored the code just to make future backports harder.

Honestly both stances are easily defensible here, but if Elbrus was a development drag this would be the perfect moment to reevaluate support.
Potato is a poisonous plant. Only roots are safe to eat. When introduced in some regions of Eastern Europe people actually died eating wrong parts.

With roots, peeling will remove anything remotely dangerous.
Even taking the nuclear threats out of the equation and pretending the war is won easily, the question of Ukraine's eastern regions remains. If a majority of citizens of Donbas want to be part of Russia, would NATO help Ukraine wage the same war against insurgency its been waging for years? It's a very messy question. I think I'd prefer Ukraine to cut their losses and recognize Luhansk and Donetsk as independent before supporting sending planes in.

I don’t know. I write JavaScript at $DAY_JOB and setting up Prettier on our repos took all of ~30 minutes, with an additional ~15 to determine which options to use. (There aren’t many because Prettier is fairly opinionated.) I have seen far more time wasted quibbling about code styling in code reviews.

Speaking as someone who's done the whole tenure thing etc, the gap between what has happened in the nonacademic and academic sector in the last decade or so has been mind-boggling to me at times, at least in my field. It's not even the big 5 tech corporations. Trends in tech that are completely and overwhelmingly obvious, even normal to daily life, get treated like some kind of bleeding edge "newfangled" thing. As a result those in the academic field end up looking like luddites, even though it should be the other way around. Years after you suggest something normal, after something is well-established, someone gets a grant for something that should have been done years earlier, and it's praised as being cutting edge or something.

I have so much to say about this. Rigor is absolutely essential but something is seriously broken about incentives in publicly funded research.
They're localized to the green/sprouted spots. And to a lesser extent the skin.

I'm not sure how the skin changes in the process, but I do know that the white flesh has minimal changes.

According to German Federal Institute for Risk Assessment (BfR), they provide a more in depth look at it [1]. Fresher potato's are okay with skin on. Damaged, or overly sprouted potato's are not.

For many years now you can buy all parts except some that are “restricted” to shops, and even those you can usually find on eBay or junk yards.

Teslas are not super expensive to repair if you compare them to BMW instead of Honda Civic. And they are much more reliable than BMWs and require almost no maintenance. Source: I repaired about 10 teslas.
Strictly speaking, yes. Strictly speaking, invading a territory that is just a border away from the Atlantic Treaty's borders, with no clear indications that the advance will stop at any point, is very clearly 'akin to declaration of war', too.

Why would I take responsibility for something I have zero influence over?

He did just appear when Yeltsin said that he's leaving. He blatantly fakes elections: 146% support is a very telling result of one of these elections. It is a meme in Russia because when you can't do anything about it you can only laugh or cry.

His 20 years on the throne are a constant stream of murders, poisoning and jailing of people who try to do something about it, and their friends, and their families.

I'm just a normal person, I want to live a normal live with my wife and kids, I didn't choose any of that. Why do I have to risk going to jail for 15 years for mentioning that war is war, only because I was born on the wrong side of the border?
Bravo! Well written and informative! And as someone who's obsessed with Dart at the moment timely! Thanks!
The trope is not 'castles with towers' though, but thin, tall, vertical structures.
Any one saying they are not using a framework is not being honest with themselves.

They may not be using a formal published framework like those mentioned in the article, but they have a personal set of tools, techniques, and methods on which to design and build things.

To maximize flexibility, minimize dependency, & maximize performance means you have to use some set of tools & methods (aka framework) that have been designed to reach those goals.
You can't have free speech during a war.

There's no point in getting the local population to rise up because the vast majority of Russians are pro-Putin fascists. Even western poll show that they're pro-Putin.

The point is to quarantine Russia so that it doesn't infect us.
> We don’t live in countries anymore, we live in screens with our legs on some kinda of ground

This would explain the over abundance of people on this website that care more about access to digital bits than they care for sanctioning a dictatorship who attacks a neutral country.
So you would have been in favor of punishing german jews (like Einstein) for leaving nazi germany?

They were german citiciens after all, so they were all 100% responsible for the war and holocaust?

If you liked commuting so much as an escape from the tiny apartment, then maybe you should seriously try simulating it, and bike more often?

And as always, remote during pandemic is different from remote in normal times. In normal times you could work remotely from a co-working space, from a cafe, from a library, from any public space with decent internet and private rooms to take calls in. Why commit to going back into the open office?

You're welcome!
Surely this will be an interesting event, but the title alone seems to compare economic sanctions with war, unfairly in my opinion.

From a schoolyard perspective, economic sanctions are like giving a peer the silent treatment. It hurts you both, but it's your right not to interact with someone if you find them sufficiently unpleasant. War is like committing homicide against that peer during recess. In other words, it's really fucking bad.
Ever since Turkey existed.

Sure there are sometimes conflicts but most of them are government propaganda trying to divide otherwise perfectly happy people.
That is a legitimate worry but there’s no counter to it other than reminding Putin that a nuclear attack would cause a massive automated, nuclear counter attack that would destroy him too.

There’s no defence against submarine based warheads; enough will get through.

It’s the reason that NATO isn’t going establish a no fly zone over Ukraine. They know it too.
If you said something like that to a Polish person during early days of WW2, they would slap you in the face, or worse. You have no right to say something like that. If Ukrainians want to fight until the end, that is a choice they can make.
> I've been really critical of the moves we've made in Europe for the past 10-15 years

So Germany buying gas from Russia, then trying to buy even more gas and then for a large part depending on it. Do you consider that a good or a bad move?
In many ways, affected countries see sanctions not as a punishment or attack but as insult-by-action.

The actual economic effect may usually be countered but the humiliation remains.

So it may be efficient in scaring small, dependent nations but it won't lead to victories against large and proud ones.

And I mean the latter more in the criminal sentiment of "it's all about respect".
It’s also bad because the world needs to get the truth into them. Russia is blocking a lot of sites but discussion about the war is all over. Cutting them off leaves them with just one information source - the Russian government.

I fully expect him to destroy it completely if he can't seize it and I am scared shitless of what could very well be the first deployment of nuclear weapons on the European continent, the nuking of Kyiv. I would definitely not put it past Putin and I hope that before we get to that that there will be a palace revolt in Russia because if they just keep following orders there all bets are quite literally off.
We can go back further to Mark Twain with Chapter 7 of A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court titled "Merlin's Tower" https://www.gutenberg.org/files/86/86-h/86-h.htm

I'd also point to the towers of ancient times being places where astronomy and astrology where practiced and the linkage between astrology, divination, and wizards.

"Black lives matter" and "Moscow election protests" happened around the same time. I have nothing against BLM, but I can say that many Russians got plenty upset, that all countries had huge protests around the world (even New Zealand) to support BLM, while Russian protests were completely ignored by the international community.
Nobody is asking to come to Russia, but we've been alone in our fight with Putin all along, the "West" haven't tried to help us fight his propaganda.
I guess he is our problem now, but it's a little too late.
Says the guy who on his own accord and choice went to war.
I feel like you are conveniently skipping the part where millions of ordinary Russians are being economically devastated by broad brush sanctions that punish the poor and middle class Russians who are innocent of war crimes, simply because they were unfortunate to be born in the wrong country and they may justifiably be afraid for their lives if they protest.

For those who say beat the war drums, punish them all, just so we can make it harder on the authoritarians and oligarchs - are you ready to enlist in the Ukraine militia or is that too much to ask?

It seems a little too facile to be willing to put others lives on the line when you are not willing to risk your own.
> Count me as old-fashioned, but very few apps really need those kinds of frameworks. They could mostly do without them.

Probably true if you look at it in a vacuum. I think if there's a big team a framework is certainly helpful to keep thing's organized and the borders a bit more defined. You also benefit from a community, best practises and documentation about how things should be structured and work.
Have you seen any major rebellions in Russia in the last decade? No.

Here is a kicker - there were few coups even in North Korea.

So russians are fine with regime. And even though actions speak louder than words, most people even didn't SPEAK against it until few days ago.

So unless you openly spoke against putin and regime for years, you were part of the problem.

Also, in Ukraine people go against armed forces with bare hands on protests and risk being KILLED. In russia they are afraid to protest to get 15 day jail time? Sorry, no excuse here either.

Here is a specific example: Circumcision It has the features OP complains about. Content controlled by a small number of "guardians" who knows every Wikipedia rule and policy in existence and uses them to keep outsiders out. A shockingly biased tone that omits every dissenting source. The article's guardians call them "anti-circumcisionists" and in their view, the critics objects are as valid as 9/11 conspiracy theorists'.

"Male circumcision significantly reduces the risk of HIV infection among heterosexual men in sub-Saharan Africa." "The highest quality evidence indicates that circumcision has no impact on sexual function, sensation, or pleasure." Mentioned in the first two paragraphs. The fact that many believe that male circumcision is a grave violation of boys' rights to body autonomy is not.
Why should I censor myself just because there are extremists out there?

I actually despise these trigger warnings and cancel culture of cultural pieces just because the author was a misogynistic idiot (or anti semite, or proponent of slavery). We need to put bools/texts/essays into their historical contexts and discuss why we today hold beliefs that are different (and to us feel more modern/humane/better).

I am politically very left, atheist and I argue against dehumanizing isms since my days in high school 25 to 30 years ago. But still I find value in discussing ideas from Kant, Luther or many others that nowadays are often canceled in educational settings because of their despicable values/isms.
This is compounded by the fact that the troops Russia has sent are predominantly from the very far East of Russia and are not directly related to the Russian cosmopolitans from the West. SOP for the Russians in the last wars.

Same here. Sprouted potatoes look absolutely horrible but I can't bring myself to throw out a bag of potatoes just because they look awful. Just cut away and boil or bake. It even creeps me out to even hold sprouted potatoes. I wonder what is it about sprouted potatoes that repulses people so much.
Google Trends is actually a much better data source for this kind of thing, precisely because it's so difficult to game. The examples you give (videos, interviews, history) are trivial to use to give a biased view - just show only the videos that back your viewpoint, for example. It's easy to find a hundred videos on YouTube with "proof" the Earth is flat.

The other thing that is great about Google Trends data is that is essentially a window into "things people are actually searching for when they think nobody is looking." Yes, I realize the irony in that every Google click is tracked, but you'll get much more "honest" results looking at Google Trends data vs. plain interviews. For example, the country with the highest volume of "gay porn" searches per capita is Kenya, a country that is pretty vehemently anti-gay. The reasoning behind that is open to interpretation (I suspect many people are just genuinely curious given images of gay relationships in the media are so much less acceptable there), but for a society that basically deems gay sex extremely deviant, there sure are a lot of folks interested in what it looks like.
I've now been taught to rip right into the gristly bits. That cartilage cap on the end of a chicken leg is nice and crunchy. The tips of chicken wings are great when they're crisped. But yeah, I was also taught to kind of navigate around those.

The weird thing is, my mom was from Pennsylvania German culture and had been raised to eat all kinds of off cuts. So in theory, I should have learned from her. I guess my family got caught up in some kind of wider American zeitgeist about food (probably the same one that foisted Red Delicious apples and white eggs on us).

Modern frameworks help to separate state from code. And also to reduce the amount of work in case of a state update.

For large applications (or small ones that may grow large one day), you absolutely need a framework.
NaN is a cancer. The choice that NaN == Nan being false is just wrong. Every type, every variable can have multiple reason for being invalid. Yet, no other type has ever chosen to make invalid values not being equal to themselves.

Pointers can be invalid. They can be invalid for any number of reason. Lack of memory, object not found, etc. No one ever suggest that null should not equal null.

File handle can be invalid. They can be invalid for any number of reasons: file not found, access denied, file server is offline. No one has ever made invalid handles not being equal to themselves.

The justification for NaN not being equal to themselves is just bonk.
Agreed, but my understanding is that Cyprus also sells EU citizenship.

If Putin thinks sanctions on Russia from the west is a war and declares it on the west - we’re good to go - that’s OP’s thinking.

Percent math doesn't work that way. Every country should produce an additional 1% of the whole world total. Very different from 1% of what they usually do, which is a fragment of the total.
They'd need to produce 1% more grain as compared to the world's output, not their own output. This could be a significant increase.
Then sanction us right back, fucker.
This is a ridiculous false equivalence.

* Russians are bombing civilians, infrastructure, power plants, &c

* We using sanctions and cutting of Russian influence.

These are in no way the same, and you can't say we're "spreading feud" when they're giving 15year prison sentences for saying the word "war".
You’re naïve to think that Putin is invading a “weaker nation”. This is not about Ukraine. This is about the United States and NATO Encroaching Russia in Russia feeling like it has to defend itself. This is actually more about China and Russia than it is about only Russia. The United States is petrified that Russia and China will stop using the petrodollar.
