  • Do they with “certain values” mean their abnormal high numbers of domestic violence (not a crime in russia) or the rape-culture inside their military (also not a crime)? Or do they mean with “certain values” to mass-arrest everyone who is showing the least critique or forming an own opinion about the war? Or are the certain values to kill hundred of thousands of your own people in a senseless war? Or the value of killing or poisoning people not only in their own but also foreign countries for political reasons? These values? Or the value to undermine the politics of sovereign countries by hiring troll-workers and use microtargeting to misinform people via social media about that countries policies? Russia has so many values, sometimes I am really confused what their most important values are.


  • It’s a Russian thing. It is only for the court room. In many countries you do not put someone in a cage while the trial is running, but in Russia the trials can be such a farce that they hold the accused in a small in-room cell to not act up. If you get 10 years in a gulag because you said something against putin, you tend to snap and might want to strangle the corrupt judge as nothing makes sense anymore and everything is just so far away from normality. It also helps the authority that every picture that is taken by the accused automatically paints the accused as a criminal and guilty (he is behind bars right? He must have done something)


  • Hey Guys, Microsoft is cool now, they really care for Open Source now, they changed.

    How do people always forget, how often they get fucked by that company in the last 20 years, that they think anything changed? They still abuse their monopoly, they still buy up the work of others and they still will then dilute it down for their bottom line and restrict it to force you to use a login to harvest data on your profile (see also Windows).

    Everyone who said it’s cool that MS bought Github, because they are now Pro-Open-Source: Can we please have a round table every 2 years and talk. Because I think you guys are victims of the Stockholm syndrome and do not even notice.




  • Write it down for now so you do not lose the memory if it is so precious to you. Maybe it will be even better the next time coding it. I think many coders have a “loose copy” or a “code gist” of previous versions of their favorites codes around. I never created a code that I framed and hanged on my wall, but some came close. I would not publish it under your real name any time soon. At least not as long as you work in that company +1-2y. If you choose to publish it in the next 6 month under a very different name, in another account, with another repo name, because you love FOSS so much, and it looks different to the original code in format and style (and the presentation of data = frontend), then I see no problem. Just two guys having a similar idea. Not a lawyer though.
