What you're talking about is American programmer's salaries. Not everyone lives in America and not everyone's a programmer

No, this obsession with "financial" is exactly what is the American Dream, not what I'm talking about. You can live on so much less than minimal wage - it is because people go along with societal expectations do they consider

I think it's also worthwhile to consider not just whether you can amass several millions from frugal spending and steady-hand and sober-minded investments into the market, but whether you should . I think most people set themselves go

I don't agree with the idea that a country being Christian means it'll be successful and it being Muslim meaning it'll be a disaster, but surely you can't just disregard demographic changes as "anti-Muslim nonsense&

I have no expertise on this topic so I can't agree or disagree with this analysis, but I'd like to commend you on speaking your thoughts. Too often I have found HN to downvote a comment that goes against the grain until it's

But I didn't say that Zaporozhians are distinctly Russian either, just that at that point in time the divide between Ukraine and Russia was a lot less clear. People who drive a hard line about differences of these people, especially in

At that point in time Russian-Ukrainian history was tight knit. It is after Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth influence of Western Ukraine did what I assume your understanding of the difference between Russia-Ukraine's history start.

Well in that case Russia should indeed just give up their access to Black Sea and let the US set up yet another sphere of influence! /s

The new government was vehemently anti-Russian and pro-American and pro-NATO. Russia did not commit a full blown invasion, it annexed a part of the country that had a crucial naval port to use which they had an agreement with the previous g

What on God's green earth are you talking about? In what way did Finland "unequivocally win" the war? The Finns had to concede more than the territory demanded by the Soviets before the war[0] 0 - https://en.wiki

I'm sorry, did you somehow blank out and miss out on the part where I said it's no longer beneficial for Russia to take neighbouring states as long as they do not pose a threat to the country's security. If a neighbour turns

And that is somehow a better reason than Ukrainians aggravating Russia near its borders whilst there's convenient NATO presence there?
81.
by 0x737368 5y ago
The reason everybody was scrambling for NATO membership was the threat of being taken over by USSR. The reason USSR was taking over neighbouring countries was, among other benefits, mainly to create a buffer zone so that in case of attack R

It is recognised de jure to be part of Ukraine, but part of Russia de facto . And by "improve" the balance of power in the Black Sea I'm sure you mean move it in US's favour?

by 0x737368 5y ago
You are saying that Ukraine has zero reason to do this and not so subtly alluding to that it's Russia who did it. But what benefit does Russia derive from this then?

by 0x737368 5y ago
Surely that changes when the government of a country has shifted to an aggressively anti-Russian one which will threaten one of your country's few naval ports and will likely welcome American military bases with open arms. Or should Ru

Personally, I think that the original JS syntax is absolutely horrendous and is in no small part responsible for the bad reputation JS is still shaking off. Modern JS in comparison is an absolute dream.
