It's called burning bridges. Both domestically and internationally. It signals that Russia is committed to seeing the war through regardless of what the West does and it consolidates power domestically by discouraging any potential conspirators from acting against Putin since destroying the pipelines makes it virtually impossible for any replacement to resume delivery of gas to Europe

WSGI is fine if you're building short-lived, simple request/response style web apps but if you want to do any sort of async messaging, long-polling, or use websockets i.e. a modern web app - then it leaves a lot to be desired. Mongrel2/Brubeck appear to be designed with these considerations in mind.

I've not used this app but this is definitely possible and has been covered in the literature. The final link is to a paper presented recently which actually proposes using a mobile phone for this.

Would be interesting to see what other information can be extracted from optical signals. Tricorders can't be that far off now.

Yes, carbocation is correct, we are in agreement. The mainstream media still refuses to acknowledge their complicity in all of this. When all of this was going on in the UK, MMR scare stories were front page news but not once did I see a headline on the cover of newspaper proclaiming "MMR Hoax, Sorry My Bad" says . As Goldacre says, it's crazy to think that one man created this entire mess.

I was just about to post that link but you beat me to it. It's more than a little unfair that Wakefield is being blamed for the MMR scare when the mainstream media in the UK did everything they could to fan the flames yet remain for the most part innocent
