Exactly this.
Putin been killing civilians back from 2001. This diagram cleary shows that together with propaganda machine you can drastically shift population opinion https://cdn.statcdn.com/Infographic/images/normal/28383.jpeg.
Simply, they underestimate how much Ukraine is able to resist.
or maybe thought anthropic claude?
why usually many people trying to defend Russian Government on hacker news? I'm I missing something?
There are a lot of rummors going around (Espcially in Poland) that diver name was Volodymer Z. and currently he is in Ukraine.
Not trying to give any hints there, just sharing some rummors.
Hey, I just saw this post from hckrnews . com and want to say that I use it everyday! Thank you its a great website!
Yeah, Ukrainians just have nothing to do except DDOS twitter.
Ah, maybe caused Russia haven't fired ~200 drones and missiles today? Now it make sense
Russia/USSR been pretty hostile to nations who don't want to join their peaceful and strong brotherhood. Hey they even invaded other communist nations just cause they decide to keep some independence.
If those "unfaithful" countries join NATO this creates problems for Russia to force them to give up their freedom.
And USSR/Russia started a fuss that NATO is a threat for them.
How so? Isn't is way better when other countries heavily investing in your economy?
Russia already lost Su-57 in Ukraine when ukrainians didn't even had F-16.
On top of it - russia simply f*cking in a multiple possible ways. Its just a disaster on top of disasters.
they could simply ALLOW to land airplane on they land and hide what happen (similar to what they did with CEO of Total airplane or Polish presedent "accidents").
Plus this might save everyone on the plane, case it might had enough brake fluids and other liquids to make a safe landing.
But no their decided to sink it in the sea to hide any possible proofs.
Why did he reload every shot? Is it self made pistol? My best guess that insurance haven't paid his enough to buy glock17
same, would like to learn more!
and you believe so, cause now you can go on twitter and freely spread disinformation which approved by Elon otherwise you'll be ban as before.
Am I getting your defenition of freedom correctly or did I miss something?
Watching closely Ukrainian - Russia war I can see @lettergram has a point. Cheap commercial drone with granade showing just astonishing funds/effectiveness ratio. Think about firing $150 000 rocket (javelin) or $1 000 drone. Plus drone does not require any special military training and you can manuver during the fly and choose angle of attack.
But why you completely dropping the idea that CTO drove company to the bankruptcy? you can work really hard but if you don't have required skills to do the job it does not metter how much you work.
And OP admited he never worked with hardware before
unless you have a lot of free time for debugging - none. We had a project where managment team force everyone to use snaps (cause of some weired company relations with Canonical) and guess what? They did not make it. I think we just wasted 6 months in order to get to be able to do stable prod releases with snaps and it felt like docker more mature and stable in every aspect. I guess that time and money could easily stream to do actually usefull things for end-users.
Hi Peter,
I'm a solo founder of software development company in USA. I've been doing everything on B1/B2 visa until goverment told me I spending too much time in USA and they cancelled my visa with recommendations to look for other options.
I tried to apply for E2 during covid and it took them almost 6 months to process my case but they declined it with a general reason that they don't see enough evidance to issue E2 for me at this moment but I can re-apply anytime if my situation change. (I applied by myself without any lawyer at all)
After consultations with different attorney I've been told that E2 is more for people who wants to invest but since I'm already established working business it might not be a good fit for me. And yeah they do recommend me to look on O1
1. Is it something interesting for you? Can I get paid consultation from you and maybe you'll help me?
2. Is it true that for existing established business with solo-founders E2 might be not a good fit?
Thank you in advance!
Most places charge ridiculous cleaning fees, but then also expect you to do all the cleaning yourself. What am I paying for, then??
Same!!! I got couple bad reviews from a people who charged me > 1 night of stay for cleaning fee but then complain I left dirty dished and crumbs on the table.
Like, WHAT?!!! you charge me $50+ dollars for cleaning fee and expect me to left place clean? this make no sense. Airbnb just ignored my request to remove this review, telling its between me and host
Mostly it was a spectacle for outsiders. Otherwise how its possible to explain that Durov continue to doing business and operate in Russia after?
IMHO - it would not be possible for him to leave russia alive without getting some tradeoff with Russian intelligence
As a person from Ukraine, I love Vice for their coverage of Russia-Ukraine conflict at 2014. But their last interview with a Russian children’s commissioner felt like its not Vice anymore. Seems like they been trying to provide an explanation on why russia stealing children's from Ukraine. So i'm not sure what do I think about vice at this moment. Maybe its time to go
Have you tried?
Can you read russian or translate it via google translate?

while the whole store is about on how Durov tried to sleep with authors wife and tried to put pressure on him using his work position, author did expose facts which very interesting:
- telegram office in sankt petersburg sharing same office that mail ru does (and mail ru basically is pro government org)
- telegram team still contributes to vkotankte and they do share some software components connect to online messaging
- most interesting russian oligarchs has very big influence on the products (vkontakte and telegram). While both productions trying to tell its not true, behind the doors they do have well established process of giving data when certain criterias are met
Crimea is a contentious point of the current conflict.
Crimea today is de facto Russia
no, and no, no, you are trying to justify occupation, murdering, raping and civilian deaths right now.
We are no longer living in the 18th century and those barbaric methods are not longer valid and acceptable in current society. Its hard for me to gasp how even you can justify those actions
not possible from economic perspective. Crimea been losing money all the time with all different governments.
Can you please add some proofs for all your statements?
As a person who been living in Crimea for big part of my live I do find your comment very disconnected from reality.
From strategist perspective Crimea does not have anything to give to Russia except logistics problems and few military bases.
Ukraine has way more claims for Crimea rather than Russia. If we gonna use your logic than Russia should give back to Ukraine Kuban oblast (which for long time were part of the USSR)
Crimea had its own parliament but saying it was independent its an open lie. Crimea belong to crimean tatars. Which been deported from Crimea during Stalin genocide. But if we go with your logic, crimean tatars should be the one who are the real "owners" of the Crimea, and they are pro-Ukrainane. Simply cause russia to this day killing and torturing them.
Nothing with Crimea occupation is unique. Dictatorship government occupy new territory, silencing and do genocide so then it will be easy to fake referendums.
Out of curiosity, I watch couple youtube videos from travel bloggers. Although its hard to tell if people actually don't want to join Europe there or they force to tell this but from financial perspective it feels like they are on the same level as North Korea.
First you start talking about how you fear about Ukraine losing the war. One comment after you are stating its not actually a big deal for you
smells fishy
But what if we deal with a country-terrorist problem?
I would disagree with your last statement.
I have a lot of friends from Belarus, and at least from IT sector, they are really eager to continue protests simply cause they are scarred what can happen if current government will stay
Just to make it clear, telegram also tied to the russian government, and they developed telegram based on the message protocol from website vk.com which also owned by mail group.
Its just propaganda move to ban Telegram to make it look independent
