I fled russia

Best of luck to all Ukrainian ranters. Buffer states are awful places to be.

I know a guy who writes everything in Haskell.

He started learning it because his parents got him into a math school (and math schools in Russia use either Python or Haskell), he liked it, but later he dropped out. Today, apart from Haskell, he only really knows HTML and CSS, and maybe some JavaScript.

He writes backend AND frontend in Haskell and uses some kind of JRPC stuff to manage all that. He told me that his life is a pure heaven. He IS RELEVANT (!!!!!!), his apps always run without bugs (because in Haskell you can mathematically prove that there are no bugs), they are performant, faster than C (because you can't write a complex enough app in C that will be as efficient as compiled Haskell, because it's you vs compiler). He doesn't have any problems in life whatsoever. He never got burned out, he never got anxiety or depression. He doesn't act pretentiously and stuff, he's just a normal person who rarely even mentions that he can program.

Science says it can't be done! You can't only know Haskell and be a relevant software engineer! You know what, he didn't _know_ it was impossible. He's like that grandpa from a meme, he got Alzheimers, but because of it he forgot that he had Alzheimers, and now remembers everything.

The fun thing is that he looks like a typical gopnik, with adidas suits and stuff.

What a gem of a person.

The news:

"NEW OMICRONS VARIANT"
"PROXY WAR BETWEEN NATO AND RUSSIA"
"MASS SHOOTING IN THE US"

Me: and this is news how exactly?

In Soviet Russia, gay sex gets you arrested. In America, getting arrested gets you gay sex.

Goodbye Duckduckgo, DuckDuckGo’s CEO Gabriel Weinberg announced on Twitter that his privacy first search engine will be manipulating its search results to only show users what the company deems not to be “disinformation” about the Russia-Ukraine conflict.

Humans are dumb as fuck, we are the cause of every unnatural fucking problem that we face, we literally fight wars and die for no reason, we create and eat shit that kills us faster. For example, People in Ukraine are dying because of what?? Idk Russia want something that Ukraine has Ukraine doesn’t want to give it up, so hey let’s kill a bunch of people till we get what we want. That and obscure beliefs is why majority of wars were fought. Sigh.

Edit: don’t forget women were killed because they were witches

In some malls here in russia we casually have home depot stuff vending machines, right next to usual snack ones.

How to Stop #war in #ukraine and #russia? Easy. Just burn a big bush of #cannabis / #weed to the atmosphere, you will see both sides are high AF.

Maybe they both will get high instead of war.

I am John Melody, I want to represent you.

Do any Russians believe Putin?

I have been 'called' by a very unusual number. Seems to originate from Russia
For reference, don't call them back!

Now I'm in paranoid mode due to The whole pegasus affair where a simple phone call already infects your phone

Am I paranoid android?

Where I live now, when I open the tap, every drop of water from there is better than Vittel. Voss, Evian, doesn't matter. Better than all of them.

If I were to open a tap in Saint-Petersburg, russia, the only thing I could get is cholera.

Recently I've had a lot of realistic dreams and it's awful. For example, yesterday I dreamed that I have a SoftEng lecture on Monday at 9am. The day before I dreamed that Russia defeated Ukraine and are now neighbors with Hungary. On both occasions I was later convinced that the memory fragments were true until I either received conflicting news or some unrelated trigger reminded me of the later, unrealistic parts of the dream.

I can sort of deal with the possibility that my current life is a dream and I'll eventually wake up and start over from an unspecified morning, but the possibility that while living in reality an arbitrary subset of my memories comes from dreams is much worse

So apparently, the next version of C# is gonna have list pattern matching more powerful than F#...
...so... my motivation to learn F# drops back down to curiosity, since C#'s list pattern matching seems to will have all I needed and wanted for my parser, as opposed to F# which seems to not have it...

also fuck Russia and China, but I don't want to think about the impending apocalypse, thankyouverymuch.

Nice try russkis! I ain't clicking on that shit.

Why does no one stop the war that Russia started against Ukraine? Innocent people are constantly dying there!

russia is if trauma was a country

tmux new -d -s 'fuck putin'

Sometimes I really wonder about the elites supporting the woke culture, BLM movement, to the point saying "All lives matter" they go nuts is rather sinister. ie push the needle too far beyond the cringyness and use reverse psychology mechanism to bring maximum hatred as possible to the opposing group to the point of creating wars and conflict

There is a saying that goes "Only a crisis - actual or perceived - produces real change." So could be that to bring back the war economy.

I mean history is filled with such tactics on a grand scale: Nero, Hitler, Neocons such as strauses, Wolfowitz (lookup wolfowitz leaked doctrine), drumsfied, nuland leading the Iraq war (it did bring people together for a while before they realize it was a sham). And now same thing with China and Russia.

It makes no sense otherwise for the elitists to support it.

I have a task:
Make a feature to gather donates at web site through debit cards and e.t.c.

Additional conditions:
There is no company to register the payment gateway.
U need to find the one that would agree to work with physical person in Russia.
It needs to accept payments in USD and EURO worldwide.

So I was wandering around Lithuania during a time period when the freaks were playing nice. Took some pictures of hot chocolate or coffee can't remember long time ago and some photos of a nice snow covered trail and added some Cyrillic what a nice vacation

True story

This is in Russia immediately after my trip to Lithuania

The people were certainly not twisted freaks who were acting nice for once and leaving me alone instead of acting like fucked up chomo captors. A word I never use but I've been inspired by hearing it over and over

I like it here
There are Tons of people I get along with who have the same interests

I think WW3 will be started by misunderstanding. China will invade Japan. And the scene I can imagine will be :

A random Japanese: "Konichiwa"
A random C official : "攻我菊花？🤬"

Secondly, Russia invade Malaysia and Indonesia , after we told president Putin "Kita Suka awak"

And then that's how ....

WORLD WAR 3 STARTED.

Are you gies ready for WW3?

With bitcoin/binance still allowing russia to move money about, is anybody abandoning it? I don't feel comfortable using it, but also if it becomes their only way to fund themselves, the government will push through new tax laws on it and throttle it anyway. Or just outright ban people from using it.

Funding a war is one of the occassions where decentralised financing becomes a major problem.

What if Russia 🤔💭
