Why? I've never created a private repo on github for any of my personal projects. Stating with dotfiles

You can. You can also try out Ladybird or any of the Fx's forks.

I quit Firefox after a long ride because I got tired of slow loading times, and scrolling that I wasn't able to fix. No matter the settings it's still not as good as in Chrome.

But what's wrong with my VPN talking to, say, youtube (blocked in Russia) or some torrent site (for example to fetch RSS feed of new releases).

Fedora, for example, provides torrent access (including RSS feed) for its releases: https://fedoraproject.org/torrents/45/

> They’d let you do this?

Can't speak for Hetzner, but considering VPN use in Russia and China - I'd imagine most EU\US vps providers have someone's 3x-ui, remnawave or naked v2ray installed.

Plus - how are they going to detect your remnawave node sitting on 443 port? For them it's just some traffict.

And if you are worried about the amount (torrents) - you don't really need to torrent though them. You just need an access to a torrect tracker to get your magnet link and meta info.

Most default configs for 'ray have torrents locks for this very reason - you communicate with other people (seeds\peers) directly.

OCaml 5 + https://github.com/ocaml-multicore/eio

I' just starting OCaml, so can't really compare, but it seems a good progress there.

大哥哥 is what a kid would call a much older kid for example.

The character's name is 老大哥. That is if we are talking about 1984.

> ability to fund science

More like "commercialize" rather then fund.

>But also, look at where almost all technological innovation has happened in the last 50 years

Free market, capital, open borders etc.

During soviet times you research whatever party sees interesting (an exaggeration here) and produce whatever and however Gosplan dictates.

If you don't have to pay for your oil, for example, there is no need to innovate in motors and if all stores are state owned - there is no need in better management, digital goods or networks.

Nobody is fighting for their customers - people just stand in line and at the end of the month you send your books to Gosplan, Statistics etc.

Then 90s. People leaving. Then Putin and Co. People living and while there is a market now - they've managed to recreate old problems still.

>In the United States, individual bank accounts are insured by the government to $250k per account.

>The general assumption is that it would require the US government to collapse for your checking account to vanish, in which case you'd probably have larger problems to worry about.

See USSR-Russia transition in 1990-1992 for example.

Accounts didn't vanish, but all people's money where used to cover the deficit

I kind of missed the point when they've decided not to make 27" I guess.

My mother is still using my old iMac 2013 (the sceen is literally seprated from the body and the damp thing has an issue that sometimes make system task go 1000% of CPU)

The screen was always the selling point. Who even needs a 24" overpriced monitor?

Some people live to shit on Go since you can't really do "crazy cool shit" as someone I knew put it.

Apparently you can't be a senior dev unless you "just here to deliver"

> the Ukrainians are building drones near their front lines

Both sides 3d print parts near front lines. Just to be clear.

Especially when it comes to drops.

Imagine that 90% of the comments on HN are generated and it's very hard to spot it. And you read them.

Many if not all of us would be okay. Not to mention that many people have some experience of killing animals for food anyway.

Moved away from them (to Netim) in 2022.

Works fine for me ("test" returned 5 pages). But try https://ya.ru too, for example.

Yandex cloud is not as big as AWS.

First of all AWS (even in us-*) most likely have non-US services\data. Yandex is mostly used by russian companies.

Plus, from my personal experience cloud is not as popular in Russia as in the west.

Big players like Sber, Ozon, T-Bank etc have their own datacenters and [may] use Yandex (or cloud.ru for example) for redundancy and\or non-critical services.

Small players use vps or something similar.

Big non-tech players (gas&oil for example) often rent redicated servers or space in a rack for their own hardware.

Hopuflly you do realise you sound exactly like your opponent but with a different polarity.

Well, many people buy books for home library and read them only at home.

So when you are buying a good hardcover you get something that will last and you only read at behind the desk, "as it should be done".

Paperback is only good if you are going to use it to start a fire later on.

That being said I'm coming from a place where (in my youth) paperbacks where only for technical literature and pulp fiction.

> There’s not much to algorithms: do this, then do that.

Yeah, and how many of drivers or software engineers can fix their car's engine? Just a few. Even though in priciple there's not much to it.

I'll just link this comment if I may: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50042416

Neither do Yandex bots. What's your point?

65% reported by the state agency (in Russia) means the real number is quite lower.

Well, right now only 65% support this, even when reported by Russian Public Opinion Research Center (state owned):

>banking back ends

As someone who works in a bank: depending on the exacty subsystem of a bank the answer is from "already" to "in 3-5 years".

Oh, that's a good one.

Reminds me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUSoR4EdyIo (Ayreon - Everybody Dies)

Cecilia looks like an average residential area in Russia.

>experiment

experience

But you have exactly the same fonts in your terminal and modern terminal support variable fonts and all those bells and whistles.

They can even show images these days.

Some of the elements can't be recreated 1 to 1 ofc, like borders with delicate margin\padding adjustment, but this is about it I think.

To each his own, yeah. From my experiment GUIs tend to overcomplicate things and display too much info you didn't need in the first place.

Many of us just live in the terminal (during work hours at least).

I hardly use anything aside from neovim and a browser. (okay corporate Mattermost fork and video terminal too).

For me switching between different cli\tui tools feels like a continuation of whatever I was doing, while going to something GUIsh is not.

And to be honest: what do you even need from a harness\agent for it to have a gui?
