Underground parking is available and a car is an asset that's easy to move.

Come Back Alive was founded around 2014 and has operated continuously since. This is a conflict where long-term investments pay off. Also not saying they and others don't do short-term keep-up work - they do. But it's also important to develop education facilities and care for veterans.

a "war chest" is usually saved by the state (by under-investing into everything civilian) and then given back to the working-class population as salaries, sign-up bonuses, investment into logistic infrastructure. If you look up the stats - there was a real-estate boom in the early years of the was as many families could finally take a mortgage. Now many cannot pay for it because the bonuses and soldier salaries "don't last" hence companies like "Samolyot" are now in trouble.

Clarification: Starlink does not operate within Russia. If it did there would be fewer civilian casualties as drones would be guided to the actual targets. Civilian casualties are always a tragedy, it's just that russians don't care about them anymore - malls, transport hubs etc are targeted during the day. Putin explicitly says he wants us to freeze during winter and his propagandists cry for frontline cities as well as Kyiv, Kharkiv and others to be bombed into oblivion.

and be overrun by soldiers who kill civilians with drones, rape and pillage? No thanks

I work for a Ukrainian product firm and interviewed around 50 people in the last quarter for in-office work. Some of them are migrants discouraged by european salaries where an entry-level IT professional can make as much as a waiter.

If in doubt - pick Come Back Alive. They have spotless reputation and invest into long-term projects such as military education and veteran sports/aid.

On the other hand it should be so much easier to port full games to mobile. For example Stacklands is a game that would feel right at home on a iPhone or iPad, but currently it's not an app I can download and play on a bus.

from what I understand the goal for now is not to get the people to use it, but for enthusiasts to try it

Can we please stop with the "you're not doing X enough" culture? This is in part what leads to burnout and the feeling of being a hamster in a wheel.

I doubt it very much that either Russian war on Ukraine or the US attacking Iran happened due do scarcity of resources. Old folks in power want their page in history books.

could you please point to an example? For my project i'm currently animating matplotlib plots and walk through the video later, but rendering times are quite painful.

thanks for the work, this looks amazing. Have you considered trying numba for acceleration? It's great for number crunching.

It's also a form of reconnaissance. In doing these acts they observe how different actors respond and look for potential weak points.

and the goal for this toeing the line is to spark discussion and disagreement between member states. Article 5 credibility is already at it's lowest point after Vance's speech and the new US security strategy, now isn't just the matter of sowing further disagreement.

I believe this is about the perceived switching cost for the masses who, in the US and Europe for example, are predominantly not vegetarian.

I believe that Python is as popular and widely used as it is because it's old enough to have an expansive ecosystem of libraries. It's easy enough to implement one in pure Python and possible to optimize it later (Pydantic is a great recent-ish example, switching to a Rust core for 2.0). That same combination of Python + (choose a compiled language) makes it quite difficult for any new language to tap into the main strength of Python.

wouldn't it be enough for the underlying user data to be stored in a well-documented and widely supported format? I don't care if Obsidian, Logseq or similar are open or closed source if my data is just a folder of markdown and jpeg/pngs.

I'd like to remind you that Russia is not the USSR. Surely the technology has significantly improved since, but some capabilities are definitely lost. One example is them not being able to build more strategic bombers.

Very impressive work. Was very saddened to see how Ukrainian Kyiv and Kharkiv stations were excluded. We have deep stations (like Arsenal'na at 105m that connects directly to the above-ground Dnipro station on a river bank), we have both Soviet-made and new stations. Also now they are doubly essential being used for both transportation and shelter during air raids by millions.

highly recommend that as well. Disabling history greatly reduced my time spent in the app. UnTrap plugin for Safari helps as well. Can't say that I feel like I spend a reasonable amount of time on the platform still, but now it's mostly me having an urge to distract myself, opening the website and finding the videos I have seen already then closing the tab.

would absolutely love this for a personal note-taking project, but having image support and some sort of auto-completion for commands, lists, tags etc is crucial for something i'd use every day on desktop and mobile. Still love seeing more options for different purposes.

I've used tmux like that a bunch before discovering process-compose [1]. Still use tmux a lot with remote connections and booting up a few scripts in parallel is still easier with it, but for longer-serving setups p-c has helped a lot

you would be surprised how capable and resilient an army of squirt guns can be.

Biden took the approach of keeping 10 pairs of gloves on when dealing with Russia. Don't help too little not to make it too easy for the russians, don't help to much to avoid escalation.

Now every country that has the capacity to get a strategic deterrent will race to get one. So much for Biden's escalation management. Too bad Trump likes Russia so much he does everything not to step on their toes. With a heftier backing from the US the Russo-Ukrainian war would be over by now.

Very true and joining in on the thanks. Did you find a way to download it as a pdf though? I believe it is essential to be able to add notes and references when reading any learning material.

there are still a lot of problems to be solved using "classical" computer vision, especially in systems where you don't have easy access to GPU acceleration. I am a practitioner doing Simultaneous localization and mapping on compute-restricted platforms, so definitely going to read the Structure from Motion chapter.

have you tried ORB SLAM v3?
