It's so heavily being pushed on social media right now, I suspect it's coming from the same forces who tried to make people believe that Trump would deliver more weapons to Ukraine and that Trump would be the better option for Pa

Russia has been openly attacking the US, not by military means, but still. Do you really think the former presidents Obama and Biden would tell you that Russia isn't waging a war against the US? Hearing on the Internet that the US need

When Obama roasted Trump at the Gridiron Club dinner, one of his jokes was: "Now that I've published my birth certificate, Donald can focus on the more important questions, like was the moon landing real." Thiel's op-ed

Serious question: What brings people to write these comments? It's so tiresome. Always the same twaddle. Merkel was not notoriously Russia-appeasing, she was notoriously German industry appeasing. She didn't stop a business consor

I can only recommend Dietrich Bonhoeffer's essay "Von der Dummheit" (On Stupidity), which he wrote while being imprisoned by Nazi Germany. It's a short read and a terribly accurate description of what's happening.

Title is misleading. She criticizes Swedish energy policy. Her gripe with Germany is that they only have one price zone.

Do you want to provide sources for these claims? I see Germany's fertilizer exports are down by 10%, while its fertilizer imports from Russia fell by 80%. Fertilizer production seems to be up, but this metric is tracked by value only.

Astonishing amount of critical thinkers here in this thread who have to highlight that the ship is Maltese because it's flying a Maltese flag as if this matters in international shipping.

The amount of disinfo the Telegram defenders spread about this case only shows that they are far from the critical thinkers they think they are. Back when there was nothing known about the arrest other than it did indeed take place, it was

So Ukraine's military and the app creator denied their artillery app was hacked by Russians, which might have caused them to lose some artillery pieces? Sounds like they aren't entirely unbiased. Ironically, DNC initially didn

Sure, Russia that exports nuclear power plants and processes 50% of the world's uranium wants to get others' off of nuclear energy, when it's the energy source they have the tightest grip on.

It's something Typescript doesn't want to do. Their goal is to remove the type annotations, maybe add some code for backwards compatibility, and otherwise do as little as possible to stray from the untyped JavaScript equivalent.

Dealing with a zillion of handwritten Makefiles sounds more hellish than dealing with autotools. These Makefiles will be more fickle, too. I'm not seeing a convenience win.

Sure, after the public circus with the spy balloon, the government is eager to have a round two, this time with off-the-shelf consumer drones. Be honest, a picture of a $1000 drone would leave you totally unfazed.

The US is in the comfortable position to have oil and gas and to have neighbors that have oil and gas (Canada, Venezuela*). If they were in Europe's place, they would trade with Russia just the same. I mean, before the war the US was a
