HN user
Backend engineer from Russia, currently working on API Management solution for large telecom operator.
I do not support Putin and his government.
Russian version of this article, published slightly earlier AFAIU ( https://habr.com/ru/companies/pt/articles/863536/ ) does not look very AI-assisted, but still contains some of the weird moments you mentioned.
"discreet" looks like translation error, in russian version word "special" is used. PC/AT is still there, as well as Xeon example (latter does not seem "not quite right" to me)
Nivas (both classic/4x4/Legend niva and travel/chevrolet niva) are not based on Renault tech, they've been developed inhouse (with GM help on Travel one)
I use firefox profiles, separate for a) personal use b) work and c) personal use with different network settings (as I need more than one VPN connected simultaneously, I launch this profile from Distrobox) to connect to geofenced / ISP blocked services.
I use different color schemes to visually distinguish them.
The only problem is that opening link from other apps do not automagically select right profile, so I have to manually copypaste it. Otherwise, it all works awesomely.
It is mentioned at their "We're hiring" page https://flipperdevices.com/jobs#!/tab/282752814-2
"We are looking for a professional multidisciplinary designer to join our Busy Status Bar team and help bring the product to Kickstarter, generating excitement among future users."
IMO, 1st gen Epyc is not any good, given that 2nd gen exists, is more popular and is cheap enough (I actually have epyc 7302 and MZ31-AR0 motherboard as homelab). Too low performance per core and NUMA things, plus worse node (2nd gen compute is 7nm TSMC)
Yeah, I think major Russian providers just flushed caches by hand, as rollout was by-region, which is not smooth nor simultaneous
EDIT: rollout in some very large telecom here is still in progress, by region.
Basically, all ru. TLD became failing for all dns resolvers that use DNSSEC (which is the most of them)
As user, I am unable to visit any pages on .ru domains, as their IP would not resolve.
Reason is highly likely mistake (human side) in signing procedure, not something time- or hack- related.
Someone is most likely CC for TLD RU, aka АНО КЦНДСИ, official registry of .ru TLD.
That was scary. Fixed at about 16:55 UTC, total about 1hr of downtime.

Actually, it is up-to-date (new features twice a year, some of them, e.g. virtual threads, are truly SotA) and not legacy (things like graalvm and helidon 4 are relatively new and are awesome). Do not avoid Java if your project would benefit from it.
That's true, however I've spent 17 years in a countryside and I'm regularly visiting it. Also, urban population rate in Russia is quite high (at 75%) and 1M+ cities are around 30% to 40% of total pop.
That is not quite true. The majority of population is afraid/unable/not want to be vocal about their opinion in public.

Anecdotal evidence: I live in Russia and I know only a couple of people who supports P. Both pro-war and anti-war people do not.
Could you please also stop bundling all russians together? Not all of us oppose "the west" and support our stupid invasion.
Yet it is not available in some countries. VPN does not help, as valid phone number is required and its country code is being checked.
What is the Slashvertisement?
It's actually enforced by Habr rules https://habr.com/ru/docs/help/posts/
Yes, unfortunately I did not found any blocklist setting to disable all translated articles.
There is russian-speaking community https://habr.com/ which I found to be similar to HN (but less business-oriented).
However, I do not know any easy way to exclude all translated from english-speaking sites articles and news to read only local ones.
1С (odin-es) as language is very popular in Russia. Quite a lot of companies uses 1С (as company) products, most of which are ERP systems. Their english branding seems to be Yellow ERP yellow-erp.com
Market share of 1С in Russia was about 40%, it may grow soon due to foreign vendors leaving russian market.
Yeah, that's what I will probably do. However, this doesnt sound secure, and some providers do check if card holders equals to account owner
It is partially banned/restricted for companies only. Personal transactions do work well. However, there 12% tax on buying currencies on currency exchange for both companies and personal accounts
In Russia, all country-local Visa and MasterCard payments are processed by country-owned NSPK system https://nspk.com
So all local payments will work, but no abroad payments (and no foreign cards to pay locally in Russia). Probably, I will lost most of my cloud data and compute resources incl. VPNs. Fortunately, some providers do accept SWIFT payments.
