Do you guys consider federalisation as an option? Ukraine seems like a sufficiently big and diverse country for that. It sure as hell won't resolve the problem of which trade block to join though.
Probably no unrelated people at all were executed or imprisoned in 1917 or 1905. Even for the most frantic career revolutionaries it wasn't uncommon to flee from the deportation and live illegally in Russia or to…
That's so very simplistic though. You by no means kept your head low in 1905, and 1917 since those were years of revolutions, the later two pretty successful, which brought freedoms unmatched in that time. In what other…
I am talking about people who immigrated as adults. The way he talks about his experience in Russia cues that he belongs to that group. His post may be too harsh, but it is certainly not in the same league with truly…
>"serious people are the rulers, because if you do stupid crazy things you are dead" over thousands of years that forge a culture. This is the pinnacle of all the BS political mythology in this thread. Stalin and his…
What's your point? Russians don't smile because they are chimps, but Lithuanians don't smile because they are true to themselves and others? Ok.
You mean people in America don't feel this way about street preachers? Even the kind that walks around with a sign and shouts REPENT! and all? > I could give a $100 bill to a cashier at the grocery store without getting…
So somehow before 1930s people trusted one another better? I believe it seriously lacks evidence. What about people in Western Europe who don't smile all that much really? Is this some knee-jerk reaction or something?…
To be frank, he does sound like a Russian-American. They are often pretty dismissive of their heritage. Rightfully so, judging by your comment.
>they're more utilities for managing multiple framework instances. Still, you're likely to find tutorials that use them as a de facto standard, which only adds to noob confusion. That sounds more like a problem of php.…
I'd say this whole regional distinctions thing is utterly mythologized and politically motivated. It's more like branding than anything tangible. No one wants to be associated with the less well off parts of the world…
Ha ha good one. Being pedantic is a curse, yes.
I guess it would also ruin compatibility with previous polls. Sigh.

Is that, like, Russia Today channel on Hacker News?
Охуительная рационализация.
That 'cartographic' parallax is seriously cool. They even increase scale indicator accordingly.
Well, that's correct; Nevertheless, I think people should have been reminded that Gini coefficient exists someplace ITT.
So… bottled water is superior? I thought it's essentially filtered tap water…
You are not supposed to drink water off the tap (well, actually you can, if you don't value your kidneys in the long run), you are supposed to filter it through $40 device or boil it, then you can drink it. That's…
The irony of this is that lack of 'proper processes' occurred because the new government had to do this ASAP, before the 'red managers' (actual management of properties in question), backed by labour collectives, assume…
The problem with this comparison is that choice of size of the wealthiest share of population (top 110, top 400, top one family, top 20%) greatly influences the outcome of comparison. Why won't we all just refer to good…
That's a bit dodgy of you. Presumption of innocence is obviously used colloquially here. About Politkovskaya and Litvinenko: The version about Politkovskaya murder I find the most plausible is that her murder is linked…
