From what I've read, the contracts between Gazprom Germany and Gazprom Export (on the Russian side) do not have a fixed settlement currency. > This would have allowed them to require payments in Rubles instead of Euros "allowed

I moved my work domain off Google, too, and Calendar has been a huge hassle. It keeps eating invites from other people using Google Calendar unless they explicitly opt to send an email invitation.

For what it's worth, the talk about Ukrainian nuclear weapons was in Russian internet before this letter appeared. The idea doesn't originate from it. (Not writing this to suggest anything about its authenticity, just adding infor

It seems like retaining the information about all possible universes is kind of nonsensical; the volume of data is just too large. If we assume that the universe is deterministic inside of itself except for quantum decisions, it seems reaso

There are several ways to do this. Having extensively experimented with all of them I can say that the best are josh[0] (if you need external history continuity) and git subtree[1] (if you just need the commits to remain valid within your r

4-5 years ago I was first in line to claim that the Nix language needs a static type system. Now that we've seen what happens with languages like Cue I'm not so sure anymore. In a language like Nix there isn't really a distin

You can do that! No places that dropped mask mandates have made a law against wearing masks. Just leave the decision to individuals.
