I am with you. I am baffled when non sequitur comment got more engagements and someone got downvoted for pointing it out.

Quality is not appreciated here, I suppose.

Can you read OP’s comment history? I use Sync and I can read even from the deleted posts.

Why are you reposting the post?

Anyway, what’s your son’s dna result?

Hmm… the username. They know.

Yeah, at least give you argument so I can also laugh at myself too.

Anyway, take a look at this article that just came out just earlier, which means that by no chance it’s been referenced when I wtote my earlier comment. And do take note of the BOLD words.

The Core unit is responsible for building the technical foundation behind the company’s flagship products and for protecting users’ online safety, according to Google’s website. Core teams include key technical units from information technology, its Python developer team, technical infrastructure, security foundation, app platforms, core developers, and various engineering roles.

It’s going to be more expensive to hire and train new people when the dumdums in upper management finally figure out the mistakes

Unfortunately that’s not the case. Those who have been laid off are those paid high salaries to build up the foundation. Now that the foundation is already there, they future work won’t be as complex as before and need less training. So why would they still pay the very high salaries? They’ll just get rid of the used-to-be-important programmers and hire the can-be-hired-for-a-lot-less programmers from India. It’s sad, but that’s the reality.

I see Russia’s s need for survival the same way when Japan was sanctioned during WW2. Japan didn’t survive simply because they can’t sustain a long war, where they can’t replenish their resources fast enough.

For Russia to even survive, they need to find allies quickly so they can sustain in the long run. I think they see that in China. However Russia will need to stay dormant for quite sometimes, because they won’t be able to fight head-on against the backer of Europe, the US. Russia will simply lose. They need to passively maintaining their power while piggyback on China for support.

And rubble is worthless, no doubt about that. What they’ll do now is to rebuilt their East-based economy, by piling up large amount of reserve currency, such as Yuan. They have been trying to persuade other countries to do the same by reducing their dependency on the US Dollar. They others need to do that for their plan to work. It doesnt seem to work, at least for now.

Anyway what I found interesting is not about Russia but the emergence of India. India’s boldness to defy the call for Russia’s sanction and to take advantage of Russia’s desperation to sell their resources is simply brazen and unheard of. I think the Ukraine conflict has incidentally propel India as a serious emerging country, announcing that they have their own projected goals instead of being forced to choose side.

The EU will think now Russia is their enemy. But Russia is not even that powerful if we pull nuclear capability out of the equation. But their alliance with the East will be the real problem as it may accelerate the creation of a more powerful China and ironically revitalise the dying Russia, which in the end will actually strengthen them.

This is why The US/EU was not able to crumble Russian economy and stop their advance in Ukraine after the sanctions took place. The didn’t expect that China and surprisingly India, and Turkey (to some extent) will come to the rescue. Although Russia was definitely hit hard by the sanction, they manage to reverse the damages by redirecting their resources to the East instead. They have now formally change their policy to Looking/dealing East.

One way to get access to OED ODE without paying a cent is by using kindle app. When you highlight an English word, if will open the dict. You can search for any word from there.

How about in. combination to other ingredients? For example in combination with caffeine. There’s one study, ‘ENERGY DRINKS: WHY THE COMBINATION OF TAURINE AND CAFFEINE CAN BE BAD FOR THE HEART’, but I am not sure if it’s scientific enough.

This guy got super lucky. He turned his life around 180°. Got to stay in the US, got married to a lawyer and become a business associate to a manager of a law firm. Here is quite a recent video interview that I found of him.

I wish I can see this kind of post more regularly at Lemmy. Very insightful.

ok, so. the way I see it the same as in investment. As long the debts can create revenues, you can pile up more debts.

Still vague to me. Care to explain on the external factors that make it meaningful?

yes. this is TIL.

Nice to see you revealing your naivety. That’s what I’ve intended to do in the first place.
