No, NATO bombing lifted the Sarajevo siege (and killed ~500 civilians), and since the conflict lasted less than 3 weeks after that, saying 'initiating further conflicts on former Yugoslavian lands' is factually wrong. My non-expli

Protesting theocracies is a sacred duty for any self-respecting leftist. I rather have a monarchy than a theocracy, a dictatorship rather than a monarchy, an oligarchy rather than a dictatorship, and a democracy rather than an oligarchy. Th

Yeah, i think the memory work West Germany did is more long-lasting and better than what East germany did. But i was responding to someone implying that East germany inherited the Stasi from the nazi power structure and personnel, which is

But non-animal proteins bio-accumulate less harmfull stuff (like lead) and contain more useful minerals. I hate doing the "the truth is in the middle" guy, but here, the correct diet is clearly in the middle, no?

My bet is that it's like the Bin Laden hit: internal support for the coup in exchange for control. Last time they did it for a government it didn't work that well for the country.

I only used Windows at work and for games in a VM, so take that with a grain of salt: Older Windows bugs seemed fair: mostly edge cases, weird UI interaction, or stuff that only came out under heavy workload (also, windows file system). Thi

If we take out most of frontend work, and the easy backend/Ops tasks where writing the code/config is 99% of the work, i think my overall productivity with the latest gen (basically Opus 4.5) improve by 15-20%. I also am _very_ su

If I can reassure you, if your project is complex enough and involve heavy data manipulation, a 30% improvement using Opus/Gemini 3/codex 5.2 seems like a good result. I think on complex tasks, Opus 4.5 improves my output by aroun

Two month ago, i'd say 5%. With Opus4.5, Gemini 3 and gpt 5.2, it's now 20%, maybe 50% if we only talk about personal code output. If we talk about my whole team output, I'd say the impact on code production is like 80-100%,
