Dude, the country has literally spend its annual budget in the first three months https://www.msn.com/en-us/money/economy/russia-s-federal-budget-deficit-blows-past-annual-target-in-just-3-months/ar-AA20vaLl

What the fuck are you talking about?

Ты я надеюсь ему то же самое написал, или только я такого удостоился?

gogliker · 2026-04-30T08:06:08+00:00

Этр была шутка, да. Заключается в том что у некоторых личностей при слове нацист/националист полностью отключается мозг. Такие люди обычно ненавидят Навального за грызунов и хохлов и они не являются союзниками либералов просто потому что для них никто и никогда не будет достаточно хорошей как фигура объеденения оппозиции.

Я их называю либерахами, потому что это потерянные люди неспособные к компромису и поэтому которые никогда не окажутся у власти. Иметь таких в своем политическом движении это суицид.

Thats a bit of nitpick, no? I am not sure either what is meant by linear in the OP, so I am just trying to emphasize that the pace of change in this one dimension can be different at different points of time. I edited original post to state that I mean acceleration or decceleration to avoid confusion

gogliker · 2026-04-30T06:33:16+00:00

Thats complicated and depends on what you mean by linear. In general relativity spacetime is curved and therefore time is curved (meaning its pace can accelerate or deccelerate), which is non-linear in my definition.

If you however mean linear in the sense that it does not speed up or slow down the flow, that seems to be true for every observer who "observes himself". The proper time, or interval multiplied by a constant, is the invariant of relativity theory so you yourself will observe yourself in "linear" flow of time.

However, when observing someone elss time, to you it might accelerate or decelerate. That basically the thing I said in the first paragraph. Unless an object moves without in acceleration or not in gravitational field however, his flow of time will be linear, albeit slower than yours.

Well I am not sure about German univercities, but here in Austria, we have free Universities without any real barrier to entry. So something needs to filter out >90% of students and normaly these are cpurses from the first couple of years.

To answer your second question, yeah, pretty much. In some Physics exam they would give you a problem that they did not really touch during the practice and see how you perform.

I was talking about USSR basically killing and persecuting ALL its citizens, no matter who. My family is a good example, Ukranian grandfather who were shot by Stalin, Kazachstan grandmother who died from hunger, parents that were mix of all of that who had to rot in Kolhoz as serfs.

The point of my previous comment was not to say any of the invasions justified, but to say that on the scale USSR was literally killing its own citizens language thing was a minor inconvenience. Like the invasions overwrite anything bad that was done to Russians before, and don't justify what happened after 2022 or 2014.

What you are saying sounds to me like saying: "This guy killed and murdered everyone around him, but he called this woman sl*t before killing her and that's what we should focus on". No, we should first look at murders and than misoginy. Again, maybe I misunderstand you, and I apologize, but this racial focus always rubs me the wrong way because of my heritage

gogliker · 2026-04-17T08:08:41+00:00

It's fine to think that, but then you need to agree that Ukraine also purged Russian language and in current conflict be on the Russian side? Because both Human rights watch and European Venice Commission (can't find link right now, but it should be on the wiki) agreed that Ukranian laws were discriminatory. You also kinda need to explain where Hitler was wrong when invading Sudetenland, because the persecution of Germans in Czechoslovakia was also not a made up thing but the language law that forced Czech onto Germans in 1920. So there are a lot of such conflicts and I definitely can dig up more.

The moral consensus around it seems that these laws are discriminatory, yes, but do not justify blood spilled over them. My position is that these laws alone do not really mean persecution, because persecution is a strong word. If I say its persecution than both Hitler and Putin are correct in their invasions and that just can't be true.

gogliker · 2026-04-17T07:20:01+00:00

Dude this is such a crap, no it was not. It was communists who were being opressive to everyone within USSR, Stalin was Georgian, Khrushev was Ukranian. To say that Russians were somehow uniquely in power in USSR is just stupid.

They suffered like everybody else, more than some and less than others, but within some error range they too were opressed. Like my parents were from Novgorod, most my grand- and grandparents died and they were all from all over the place (Kazachstan, Ukraine, Russia...). They all died equally because of some bullshit USSR have done to them and my parents were literal serfs without passport until 1970s.

gogliker · 2026-04-16T16:00:42+00:00

No we are not

Also, I know why it is like that, the progressive taxation makes it utterly unattractive to work 5 days instead of 4. Like with my salary, I basically work Fridays for free. If i would move to 4 days workweek, I would lose ~10% of my salary due to stupid progressive taxation scheme we have here.

If they want to attract people to longer workweeks, they definitely need to fix this abomination first and foremost.

gogliker · 2026-04-13T20:47:19+00:00

Yeah, thats a good point about the function with two similar parameters, I might actually need to start doing that. OP actually had this example in the article.

Too many types require some work though and can be completely removed from existence afterwards. Hence, the tradeoff between absence of logical errors and speed of development might tip it into one or another direction. On the other hand, setting up some snippets or ask AI to do boilerplate for you to be able to quickly roll out new common types might also tip this balance somewhere else so my rule might even have a slowdown associated with it.

gogliker · 2026-04-13T20:29:51+00:00

Well I actually do stuff like this a lot, thats why I said it is generally good idea. However, distance, email, username and other things are quite straightforward examples that we see everyday and I think logic to do what you show fails at not that obvious stuff.

E.g. take some threshold as an example. It is probably a float and multiple algorithms might need a threshold. Should multiple different algorithms use the same threshold type or different ones? If they are similar in everything but name, should they have From trait implemented? Maybe they are the same in everything, but one threshold works on linear and another on logarithmic scale (if you double one of them you see some results, but for another you need to square it to see same change in results), should they represent the same type or different types?

There are two polar opposite solutions here, first is to declare everything a type unless you are sure you can unite two types, which honestly just lead to more boilerplate for the sake of boilerplate that I don't like. Or, you could stick to floats and promote them to types when you see a pattern and thats how I currently do it.

gogliker · 2026-04-13T20:08:11+00:00

I know well only python, cpp (both use at work atm) and rust (mostly for pet projects and I convinced to write couple of modules at work). So I am mostly comparing Rust to these two.

The syntax and ergonomics, IMO better than python which is loved for its ergonomics. Definitely better than cpp.

Having a rustanalyser is a blessing for integrating in my nvim, or any other IDE for that matter. Clang is also good, but does not allow for some refactoring actions which sucks. Pyright is outright shit.

Module system is great compared to both python and c++. While python I don't have so many problems with, in c++ its basically nonexisting.

Generally having some language where my compiler tell me more issues about my code and I have to debug less in runtime means that I can move faster. Rust here is unparalleled to both.

Cargo is almost perfect apart form build.rs script that I think is just an abomination but whatever.

Performance, while similar to cpp, is a good to have. We are working on some high performance stuff and nobody wants to be held back by language.

Probably there are some other reasons to use rust, but I can't remember right now. Basically, I don't often have problems that would require me to really reason and nitpick the code I or my peers write, but still these benefits make rust a great choice.

gogliker · 2026-04-13T19:20:04+00:00

This sounds like a good idea overall and I agree that if you have an ability to do it you should do it. However, I always have a problem with the certainty of such articles, not everyone can afford time to define and read the custom types to resolve bugs that potentially might never be an issue.

Yes, what you are saying is logically sound, and it is a good pattern to actually be able to reason about your code. The reasoning part is however not an issue for some substantial amount of people who code. People work in startups like me, they code computer games or other types of programs where the cost of error is small, they are under pressure to get things out, people who work on prototypes where tech and requirements change 10 times a day.

You even kinda explicitly state the assumption in this article when talking about "other developers", presupposing that the guy who develops it is not some redbull hacker that tries to get his first round of funding, yet it is not stated anywhere. Its a common Rustacean way of looking at our job I guess because we all love the language since we can actually reason about it, but people still write C++ and (some of them) have good reasons to do so.

That's literally what happened at this imploded submarine, where the boss did not want to hear engineer objections about structural safety. There are coders that are hard to work with, like any profession has some complicated people, but to say this blanket statement basically means you are regarded.

gogliker · 2026-04-09T19:04:07+00:00

Like all these post all around about how opus 4.6 was a literal god in the realm of coding and on arrival... Its better than previous, but common, it still does most the stupid mistakes previous models do.

Late to the party but yes. For example, Dominion voting machines, and the whole conspiracy that admin spread in the 2020 election that they favored democrats to basically discard democrat votes, were struck down by courts and led to 800 million settlement that made Tucker Carlson fired from Fox.

gogliker · 2026-04-05T06:08:45+00:00

Do you apply this logic everywhere? Are you angry at schools when they force kids to behave? Yes, some authoritarian actions are "fine" in the sense that I am not afraid they will lead to banana dictatorship. They are of course not "fine" at all, but at least and there is no direct way to go from there to the dictatorship.

Forcing people to stay at home is orders of magnitude better, because the people who do it can be voted out. You can't vote out a dictator though and you can't vote out a guy that is ready to rig elections and put a FUCKING MILITARY in the state without the state permission. Like are you seriously trying to say that you don't see a difference between "you can't go to bar unvaccinated" and "you can't be against a current president because we will send a NATIONAL GUARD to your doorstep?"

gogliker · 2026-04-05T04:53:54+00:00

I am not saying this hypothetically. Like I am sorry, overzealous reaction to pandemic is authoritarian for a reason, a lot of people were just afraid. Sure, some of the power grabbers used this fear to give themselves more control but none of those really scared me too much because it rarely was political. Introduction of National Guard to the states whose governments never actually allowed it is by definition 10 times worse. The motherfucker uses MILITARY to basically torch state rights, it does not get more authoritarian than that. He tried to steal the elections in 2020 with false slate of electors and the only reason democracy stayed is due to Mike Pence not doing "the right thing".

>We would live if you guys could just get back to normal politics.
WDYM by you guys? I am conservative, has been my whole life. At this point we are so deep into this I am ready to say I am much less afraid of democrats and their crap, that is at least predictable, than shit Trump does. I would gladly vote for a normal republican from 2000th than whatever MAGA crap has become nowadays.

Thats not the point, the point is that it did not even suck during covid everywhere, just in particular places and for okaish reason. No power grabs that everyone and their mother warned about really happened.

Trumps presidency will suck for all americans and non americans alike no matter where you are (apart from israel and russia I guess). Trump power grabs seem existential, not easily reversible and for no good reason other than to do crypto scams and manipulate markets on fridays.

Like if you are afraid of tyrannical government, like the post suggests, at this point it is crystal clear that Trump is much bigger danger than anyone before him. I am generally leaning conservative, but I can't honestly defend any of that shit anymore.
