The play between the West and China is not so direct it is more played indirectly. So US/EU will not ask/impose China something nor China will support Rusia against US/EU directly. Everything will happen indirectly and none o

Now we are going into the realm of psychology (maybe) where I am merely a simple internet reader: I think in case of someone who attacks there is always an endgame (something they want to gain/achieve/posses ...) and reasons are p

There is always an endgame. I think the mistake is to use the democratic logic (lets say) to guess the end game in this situation.

I dont understand how someone in the western world could read history and still believe that doing exactly what they did at the start of WW2 will bring a different result.

What would this kind of sanction achieve? Do you expect that a friend of Putin will go to him and then ask him to stop a War? Right now in his own circle of friends, there is nobody more powerful than Putin and their money does not matter r

It seems the core of this is that Paypal charges 3% and alternatives like banks don't work because either they are not allowed to transfer that much money or the recipient does not have an account. Regarding the transfer cap, I really

I would recommend Rails. You can just do: bin/rails generate scaffold Car title:string amount:integer and it will generate code to support all CRUD operations (model, views, controller) for Car with the two attributes title a

I don't think this is the case. Here is how I understand this: Microsoft was accused of having a monopoly in a market (PC) defined by one single software (Windows) and hardware produced by a lot of PC manufacturers. Apple could be accu

I don't try to convince you to like Ruby, but I don't really understand how you can know in other languages if something comes from a plugin or not by simply looking at it and not knowing the std library or using an IDE. Maybe in

1.day.ago is idiomatic Ruby code because 1.class.methods will give a long list of methods supported by `1` This is because in Ruby everything* is an object. I agree that from outside Ruby this might look weird, but knowing Ruby this

I think you meant to say that you can build the front end of an RoR app in JS/SPA and host it on S3. Because it is hard for me to see how you can create a backend API in JS and host it on S3. I might be wrong as my knowledge in JS is l

I think Google as the default search engine on Safari is a big win. How is that just an excuse to hand over money? Do think that putting DuckDuckGo as default in Safari will not have any influence in either DuckDuckGo or Google market share

I dont think a programming language can be _magic_ when talking about syntax. Syntax is something that one knows or dont know but no magic is there. It is like saying limit in math is magic. I could agree that we can evaluate if it is magic

For RBS I don't yet have a case, but thank you for reminding me about single line definitions, case...in, and destructing arrays and hashes. I should play a bit with them and see if they provide any help to write more readable code.

With keyword arguments there are a lot of cases when we do things like def call(batch_id:, language: ) end batch_id = find_batch_id_from_conditions(conditions) language = load_language_settings(user.id) call(batch_id

For me I think there are only two major things happening between 2.5 let's say and 3.0: - Keyword arguments - where there is no way around, you have to change them, upgrade gems... - Everything else is optional. Code that is written in

In case you are asking why US did actively participate in the WW2 in 1944, then there are a lot of commentaries about this decision in a lot of books. In simple terms it comes to this: if you have a dictator starting to conquer most of the

I read this the other way. As Russia is so huge, then having the forces at 350 km/500 km near the border is "close" enough to the border.
