Let me interject with a related issue I've seen in HN and its "Who's hiring" posts. I'm tired of having to waddle through the crypto/blockchain/web3 offers that are seemingly and permanently 6 months away

The cross became a symbol of Christianity because Jesus was crucified, not the other way around. Moreover, crucifixion is just a pragmatic approach to traditional public executions. Many societies have used trees and walls to hang, kill and

The decision of those countries is perfectly legitimate (and in hindsight a very good one, seeing how Putin instrumentalizes Russian minorities). But my point is, before the soviet collapse Russia didn't have a lot of shared borders wi

I might very well be mistaken, but this war and Russia's belligerence during the last 10 years never seemed to me a matter of ambition and territorial expansion, but rather desperation. Putin is 70, and his death will certainly plunge

OK, I'll be going a little meta with this comment and thread, so hopefully dang will allow me some leeway. The value of Huamán Poma's chronicle is not just the historical account per se, but the fact that it appeals to the argumen
