he came to Georgia under difference circumstances though, not running away from the government like the people fleeing right now

Putin was shaken up by Euromaidan and been preparing so it doesn't happen to him ever since. Ukraine 2014 != Russia 2022. Back then Ukraine even had free speech.

it's not North Korea YET, but it's pretty damn close right now. Remember Belarus protests a year ago, Lukashenko lost the vote by something like 95%. Almost everyone went to protest against Lukashenko, but because he holds on military the protests couldn't do anything. When it comes to how much military Putin has, Lukashenko is not even close.

to be honest, I don't know, that is the reason I left, I have no hope and don't know how to change things. What could help is all these companies that are blocking Russians sending information to Russians about this war and about Putin's actions. If all Russians on Google, Playstation and etc saw more information it would help get through the blockade. Companies haven't been doing it because it requires more effort and risk getting blocked by Russia. By cutting these people off you are turning these people into Putin supporters. It's so much easier to just cut off Russians than actually trying to solve the problem.

try blaming people born in North Korea, maybe if they are sanctioned and hated more they stop "voting" for kim jong un?

Unfortunately, not all Russians are against this war, many people don't even know that there's war, because as of now even saying "Stop War" is punishable by 3 years in Prison, distributing non official information about the war is punishable by 15 years in prison. All free media is banned as of now, newspapers closed down so their journalists don't go to prison.

As for protest, if you think there's a lot of military in Ukraine, wait and see how much military is in Russia. There's 400k "internal" army alone that is dedicated to fighting its own people. Putin has created this army after the Ukranian revolution so the same thing doesn't happen here.

In Belarus 95% of people were against Lukashenko and took to streets like wildfire after the rigged election a year ago, did it help? As long as he controls the military protests can only do so much.

what's going to happen with so many countries / companies cutting Russia off is that it's going to play into Putin's narrative that Russia is surrounded by enemies. Imagine you are a neutral teenager who never cared about politics, then Playstation takes all your games, you don't have access to any of the media sources that can explain the situation (they are all banned now), you can only hear what government tells you.

I've been a big crypto sceptic for a long time, but with the current situation I had to deposit a lot of money to Binance, because Russian banks/government has stopped allowing people to withdraw USD from ATMs, forbidden transfers to other countries (only $5k/m to relatives), forbidden to cross borders with more than $10k (not they are possible to cross at all now).

I managed to escape the country yesterday, had to flight to Egypt of all places, because ALL (even business) tickets were sold out. The recent news is that starting March 6 all international flights are suspended, the trap has closed.

The disheartening thing is that even if you never supported Putin, other countries treat you as enemy.

I am at Georgia now and banks refuse to open bank accounts to Russians, and I need one to continue working as a remote dev for US companies. Older generation (who are pro-Russian) suggested being careful around young people as they may be hostile to Russians, even those who are running away from Putin.

A lot of my IT friends have fled the country, almost everyone who could. My heart is bleeding thinking of friends who wanted to leave on March 9, not sure what they can do now.

I know the article is a bit bare-bones - pretty much dumping the code on you, but wanted to share my solution in case anyone else finds it useful.

The same thing happens to me. But it doesn't have to be a virus, it may be bacteria living in our body and waiting for a moment when our immune system weakens (like after prolonged stress). It's been known for a while our body is crawling with some bad boys, like Staphylococcus aureus for example.

in Russia military supplies for officers are pretty great. For example, the canned meat is much better than the one you can buy at a supermarket. For private soldiers the food selection is much worse I hear than for officers.

Would be great to see in Russia. Technically it's open for Russians, but it's a common knowledge that 99% of requests get denied. I wonder if it's the same for some of other countries where Atlas is "open"...

I live in Russia, the situation here is not as bad as Belarus (yet), but has similarities nontheless. The sad thing is that almost 50% of the population still believes Putin, and the reason is propaganda, the main point of propaganda - that Russia is a fortress surrounded by enemies, anything bad you hear about the government is foreign agents trying to descredit him.

EU gets to appear "tough" while, unfortunately, this is only going to hurt people of Belarus. This is only going to help Lukashenko's narrative that the West is plotting against Belarus.

why does it say Russia and culture though? Saying this is culture based on what Russian government is doing is like saying American culture is about grabbing women by a p*ssy based on Trump's behaviour.

You just made an insulting generalization about a country of 150M people

oh well...

it's cool and all, why the site though? There are plenty of similar websites for people searching for work

I wish they would do it for Kremlin bots as well, they do a lot of propaganda here in Russia

Russia is far from being the most developed country out there, but our banks are infinite times for progressive than in other parts of the world. I can do every single thing from their app or their site, never need to visit my bank (aside from getting from an ATM).

to solve N+1 in Ruby Graphql automatically I wrote a thingy that analyzes what fields were requested in a recursive manner and then uses a preloader at the root level to load everything in advance. Solve 80% of N+1 problems automatically.

Anyone had a chance to read their book? Do they back their practice by research? Tired of pseudo sciency stuff...

I've actually just written a blogpost about it. http://www.dmitry-ishkov.com/2016/09/dns-over-https.html You can run a local DNS server which is gonna use Google's DNS-over-HTTPS. But as eridius noticed you still have to resolve dns.google.com
