Classic russian. Target something for no reason other than psychological impact. Same reason why they bomb civilians etc. The Ukrainians meanwhile bomb Russian bombers.



Nobody cares. What a star.


Boards don't hit back.


> Polyester is still used extensively but it isn’t the replacement industry wanted

This is almost always the case. It's very rare that an improvement is better than the original in everything.

The new thing is always sold as universally better, and some times it takes a while for the mass consciousness of people to figure out that the new is better in some respects but the old is still better in others.


Genai could, in principle, evolve/change to a point where people cannot detect it, rendering the entire argument flawed.


Firs time I'm hearing about tinc, looks great. How does it compare to wireguard? Pros and cons?


Tinc will exchange endpoint information over the network, so clients will connect directly to other clients without having to set up every connection explicitly. For example, if A is configured to connect to B, and C is configured to connect to B, then A can connect to C to exchange packets directly without you having to configure that. https://tinc-vpn.org/documentation-1.1/How-connections-work....

Tinc will also do a layer 2 tunnel if you want (tap) while wireguard is only layer 3 (no broadcast/multicast).

The big con of tinc (and most VPN solutions) compared to wireguard is performance. Wireguard is a small kernel module which can process traffic very fast.


They do different things, I hear? I know Wireguard works closer to the kernel, but it's more of a traditional "VPN" otherwise, and you'd have to add "mesh."


Russia hasn't spent enough in their military to afford nuclear maintenance in decades. They don't have nuclear weapons any more, they're just faking it at this stage.


It’s an elephant in the room, and I have a strong impression not everyone acknowledges it.


As a European I often feel we don't deserve the allies we have in Ukraine.


Ukrainian drone veterans will fill important roles in NATO, regardless of whether Ukraine explicitly joins.


I feel for these teachers. From the way they write I can tell they're all well intentioned.

However, I think that the argument "how can I tell my students XYZ when other people aren't doing that?", which appears multiple times in this article, is weak. Just because the world has a lot of dumb and lazy people put there, that doesn't mean you shouldn't demand better from the students you're teaching. It makes me question if these teachers can think for themselves, or they're just parroting to the students stuff they had parroted to them.

In fact, it's not the first time this argument appears in the context of education. A teacher coould also say "how can I ask my student to learn how to multiply by hand when in the real world no one does that?" That betrays that the teacher doesn't really understand why we've chosen that those things should be taught in class.
