Very effective. As long as you only retroactively accuse Russia of responsibility for all of the democratic outcomes that you didn't want.

I've managed to avoid working with Kubernetes thus far in my career. I admit I don't have a great understanding of it. I can't think of a single technology that seems to unanimously stir up such bitter feelings in the develop

What an arrogant, ignorant comment. Do you seriously think that all those people living different lifestyles to you, who don't live in cities, and believe different things, do so only out of ignorance? If you're an wealthy, urbani

Cool article. My first thought is that this might be a fun way to implement some really simple executable obfuscation.

How does it not concern them? This is exactly the same scenario as the Cuban missile crisis playing out in reverse. Do you think the United States had no business in the foreign affairs of Cuba as the soviets placed ICBMs there?

It's not the 1950s. Stalin is dead. Russia is not fighting this war to annihilate Ukraine. They want to restore a supplicant government loyal to Russia, and keep funding them to that effect. Same playbook they're using in the rest

Let's not forget all the military spending money Biden has given to Ukraine during his time as president, prior to this conflict kicking off. This crisis was not sudden, or unanticipated. Russia has been warning the world for a long ti

In case this is not obvious to anyone reading, this is a terrible, terrible idea. Discounting the obvious risks of being killed, or injured, if you are captured as a member of a foreign paramilitary unit, you will not be afforded the same l

This is such an awful idea. The origins of this war, and the annexation of Crimea following Euromaidan, lie in the Russian perception that Ukraine's status as a neutral buffer against NATO will change. Any European involvement of this

I'd like to see their guidelines for the social content of their productions. Every Netflix production I've seen seems to feature commonly themed social commentary, in some cases more subtle than others.

I don't see how defunding the police provides any kind of solution to the problems you mention. I know there's a strawman argument here, do you think that you'll get better treatment from local gangs/militias/warlor

At risk of being downvoted, I'm automatically very skeptical of any story I see on Reddit. I pretty much just instantly assume it's some kind of weird lie for online clout. The site culture there is very strange.

I own several domains with Epik. I bought them through Epik for no other reason than my friend having an affiliate link. I don't host political content. I don't even know anything about them as a company. I am actually very angry

What on earth are you talking about? Epik is not a 'neo-nazi' website (whatever you think a 'neo-nazi' is), it's a domain registrar. So please spare us your oh so righteous indignation.

Very cool. It would be cool if they pivoted to target ARM, or even better RISC-V, to target handheld devices.
