Changing strategy was inevitable. They lost 90% of readers between 2021 and 2024. It would be a dereliction of duty for the owner of the company to continue business as usual in such conditions.

Pilots have a saying: “aviate, then navigate, then communicate.” Roughly this means use your own perception and assessments of the situation to keep the plane safe, then get to where you’re going, then coordinate with ATC. The Southwest pil

This building is so perfectly at the Dyatlov threshold it will never be demolished. So much money has been invested, a brutal court battle, PR disaster for the city government, but despite all that it’s so nearly close to be salvageable t

Awesome! Your Chinese must be pretty good now. Do you still have the Perl source? How did you even devise such a project in 1998?
