How is there not a single marker in Ukraine? UAF are using every kind of equipment they manage, I have certainly seen in the media DJI drones being used there.

I mostly knew it for Simon Ostrovsky in eastern Ukraine. In the recent years it has seemingly become more politically biased like many other papers, so I stopped paying attention - it simply did not stand out anymore.

No matter how grass-roots you imagine journalism to be on the path of becoming I believe it will end up resettling into a specialized organization, because it requires cross-domain research, an ability to vulgarize, and an ability to invest

I am really tired of dirt being brought up each time a discussion of a renowned figure is happening. It obviously detracts from the inspiration or immersion people are trying to derive from bringing up those renowned figures. They are inten

Sounds really weird because you still have to screen people for software engineering jobs, while administering problems in an in-person interview is how it was being always done before coding competition platforms. As to the platforms thems

I am trying this approach right now. It is difficult to do it for big concepts because they take time to recall in their entirety and can't be reduced to one key idea to be recalled quickly. It may also be hard to estimate what interva

I love these: Q: how to perform a 7-base sum of two numbers? A: To perform a 7-base sum of two numbers, you must first convert the numbers into their 7-base equivalents. For example, if you want to add the numbers 5 and 12, you would conver

If to "look" means to verify the existence of things in it and to skim the code for style etc without even running it, then yes. Many people have these repos with a fork of some opensource project with like 2 commits in it, or som

People are seeing the young YouTube in TikTok. For monetization reasons, YouTube shifted to longer and better produced videos, and the quirky and raw content the OP is praising TikTok for has become less prominent, although it is definitely

Because of all of these news of arrests, cops shooting someone unarmed, or people getting easily labelled as felons or sex offenders, US has become synonymous with "trigger-happy" (literally & figuratively) for me. Are people

Although they claim to not be abandoning the idea and the trademark altogether, I don't really understand the reasoning behind not using such a seemingly strong brand. Mindstorms appeared pretty popular with hobbyists and in education.

It would be understandable if it were for scams or using ads for illicit goods, but I can't imagine it being a tenable business practice for a corporation to keep a negative permanent record over a minor transgression where no-one is h

This sounds weird. Have you abandoned native apps altogether? You must be using notepads, pdf viewers, terminals, etc. People are still constantly in touch with low latency and low-bug UI and I like to believe that because of this native ap

"Content" is the common denominator word for everything that ends up on a platform. Some of the content is art, some is DIY guides, some is game playthrougs. And some of it no one will even bother to classify because of how random

This sounds like some mix of whataboutism and willful ignorance of the scale of the conflict and its atrocities, as well as its economic implications. Energy crisis, immigrant crisis, grain crisis, the need to pour in billions in weapons. T

I am kind of living by this; I really don't see how a "menial" job experience transfers onto "exciting" jobs. If you want to do ML or program computer graphics, 5 years of writing CRUD code in Python will probably n

This sounds very behooving of a dating app: it preemptively gives 0 chances to the "iffy guy" and rejects them so the dating person doesn't have to. I am still not sure to what extent the problem is with this social norm vs.

While it sounds painful because of the inefficient development & testing process, I think that if that day is spent on research instead (looking for a better solution or reading existing code) it is OK to spend 1 day on 3 lines of code.
