marius_k··on Ukrainian special forces. Why don't we talk about them?
We talk. What is the problem?
marius_k··on Anonymous claims it hacked Russia's central bank and will release files
What could be the reason for delay? I hope this is not a false claim.
marius_k··on Ask HN: What details do you want in job postings?
For me it is important and this info would save my time doing research. So the posting might contain url with general info about geography of a company.

Remote options.

marius_k··on Russians Are Racing to Download Wikipedia Before It Gets Banned
I think it is available on ipfs. Is it still possible to ban it there? considering the user has ipfs browser extension?
marius_k··on Appalling truth of a little child in Yemen
I am flagging this because from the hashtags it looks like the author is not interested about problems of Yemen. Rather he is more interested to distract from the Ukraine War.
marius_k··on Yellow paper disappeared from Russia market
Some whataboutism. It was forbidden to use blue (indigo) color in some European countries in 16-17th century.
marius_k··on Russia Will Not Allow Slovakia to Transfer S-300 Air Defence System to Ukraine
We should stop taking any word from Russia seriously. They are not interested in agreements.
marius_k··on DuckDuckGo, the free speech search engine that never was
For me it is desirable to shut up someone yelling in my face so I could listen quality information. Down-ranking the sites should not be considered as censorship you can still find your BS if you scroll down enough. Down-ranking is a way to improve search quality.

Maybe DDG this way violates the absolute freedom of speech but at least it is fighting for my freedom to hear and listen.

marius_k··on Russian Official Warns Finland, Sweden Against Joining NATO
Everyone should take away a lesson that it is impossible to negotiate with Putin. Dialog is impossible and decisions should not be influenced by these threatenings and warnings.
marius_k··on Ask HN: What's the chance of crushing Russia's economy collapsing world economy?
I am hoping it will collapse major part of world corruption.
marius_k··on Ask HN: Are the sanctions mostly about turning Russia into a true democracy?
It is a way to stop financing the war and make people pay attention into inside problems.
marius_k··on Ask HN: What do Russians on HN think about this war?
> 30 Pentagon-funded biowarfare labs in Ukraine.

That just does not make any sense to me. Why should those labs be somewhere in Ukraine rather than in US?

marius_k··on Ask HN: How do a prepare mentally for war?
Try some stoic books maybe? There are ancient ones like [0]. I don't know any moderns ones.

marius_k··on I Booked an Airbnb in Kyiv
In the current situation money is not much useful. The shops are closed. While there are orgs which organize supply to shelters and citizens.

marius_k··on Why is Russia invading Ukraine?
I am from eastern Europe so I might be biased. This is Ukraine position which I agree with:

https://war.ukraine.ua/why/

Blaming West is overthinking the situation IMHO. The most simple explanation is that Russia is controlled by corrupt hierarchy with psycho on top of it. The psycho feels nostalgia for imperialism and soviet era. The psycho values hectares of land over the lives of peaceful civilians.

marius_k··on Don't Cancel Regular Russians
For sure. But Russians now have an important mission to speak up. They share the language with those soldiers going into war. They share the language with those Putin supporters. Do not accept this norm.
marius_k··on Ukraine will now see ruthless city battles – Russia’s Plan B
Nuke everything in few weeks? Yes, possible.

Take over hearts and souls of Ukrainians in the next 30 years? Maybe. Long-term resistance in Ukraine is now guaranteed.

marius_k··on They are ‘civilised’ and ‘look like us’: the racist coverage of Ukraine
As I said - I believe it can be true. Eatern Europe still has soviet wounds.
marius_k··on People of colour fleeing Ukraine attacked by Polish nationalists
I already commented on this one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30529819

I believe it can be true. And it could be not a coincidence that the area near Poland/Ukraine boarder is marked as LGBT-free[0]. I think the situation should be better in the capital Warsaw or Vilnius(Lithuania). I feel shame for those racists.

On the other hand it can be popular kind of propaganda: "And you are lynching black people"[1].

marius_k··on Ask HN: Can Airbnb Help housing Ukrainian escapees in central europe, please?

They organize hosting and traveling from PL boarder.

marius_k··on Ask HN: Can you help me remove the marks for the airstrikes from Google Maps?
Does anyone know why google maps is used here? Could it be trolling? To make people busy doing useless work?
marius_k··on Ask HN: Is it possible to create counter-terrorist consensus on blockchain?
Yes. I see this is a problem. In 1930's Germany these kind of referendums(fraudulent?) made the world-wide catastrophe.

Anyway it is fundamentally(?) always the majority who agrees on the rules. And the majority chooses how to advocate for minorities (one of which could be a terrorist organization).

So in case there are bloody coins on the blockchain - the majority has two options:

- collaborate with terrorists (do nothing)

- freeze the coins

marius_k··on Visa, Mastercard block Russian financial institutions after sanctions
I see downvotes are coming. I am sorry for spamming it here. I just feel desperate to do something.
marius_k··on Many predicted NATO expansion would lead to war. Those warnings were ignored
I always predicted that Putin will start the war. And I was right. Here you go.
marius_k··on Ukraine Government email to ICANN (requesting shutdown of .ru root DNS servers)
Situation is not delicate - it is brutal.
