I understand why you think cursive is closer to “regular” alphabet in Russian, but I can assure you that learning Russian cursive is basically a separate topic entirely and is really really hard. Big examples are д (looks like g), и, й and м are basically indentical, т looks like m.
It is more complicated than that, and it changes country by country. There are cultural/traditional issues that contribute to perpetrating the vicious circle of poverty. One such factor is preventing kids from attending schools. This makes some people unable to speak local language and functionally unemployable, paving the road to poverty and marginalization.
That said, at least in my country this issue affects a tiny minority of the Roma population. An even smaller minority is apolid, mostly coming from ex-Yugoslavia, which obviously causes several problems with the ability to work.
The main aspect though is that “solutions” proposed by many governments, like building “camps” when they can settle, are just ineffective from all points of view, prevent integration and foster the tendency to a conservative and closed culture.
Not every worker is an hourly worker. There are people who buy summer houses, there are people who buy boats. A sailboat like the one in the article (or in the OC) not only often is rented out, it’s not that expensive to buy as well.
Yachts are a different game, but I don’t care about the semantic of what is a yacht, the point is, small boats, especially sailboats, are something that some people buy for themselves as a retirement “gift” or something. They are workers and they deserve to enjoy what they saved during a life of being exploited, and this narrative that as soon as you live above the poverty line you are a billionaire is counterproductive.
Belonging to a class is a matter of relationship with means of production, not of wealth. There is absolutely nothing wrong with people using their money earned through their labor for boats, especially in the case of sailboats, which are not environmentally as bad as yachts.
The problem emerges when the money are extracted from other people’s labor. Plenty of people can afford a sailboat, if they wish it, after years/decades of work.
Boris (IT), a metaseries about the production of shitty telenovelas. It also condenses Italian culture from multiple PoV in a spectacular way.
Loved it. I think the fact thay they shot it twice (NO and EN), with the actors having the norwegian accent made it even more fun for me.
Not to self-promote, but I have expressed my opinion on the topic.
Wait until you will need a team of people to optimize cloud costs.(finops) for peak irony.
I have never heard of the game, i guess you are referring to https://celeste.ink/wiki/Assist_Mode?
I can see they have lots of options! However the platforming seems to be slightly different? In case of HK I suppose that invincibility-like mode is what I suggested brought to the extreme (I.e. you can just walk over spikes etc). Maybe the other thing that could work is slowing the game down so that timing is easier to get.
I think it’s an interesting discussion accessibility from this point of view. I think everyone draws the line at some point, between accessibility and simply making a game with some principles that represent the soul of the game.
Tbh it’s a reflex and dexterity game, among other things, so it is not for everyone. In the same way a game that requires memorising melodies is not for me, since I suck hard at it.
I suppose there could be a mod that simply doesn’t let you die and you can explore the whole world. There is no other way to make a platforming section easier, unless you add more anchor points etc., which requires actually changing the world (essentially, you remove the platforming section), so those could still be a problem.
Yeah I am almost at the end of the act 1 (i think?) and so far the impression is that if something seems to have a long walk or having to repeat a hard parcour section, I didn’t find some hidden bench or shortcut to bypass said parcour section.
In general I can see this game being started as an expansion for HK, the difficulty is quite high and the curve steeper, but I can’t relate with most of the complains so far (the currency maybe a little, but it’s normal IMHO you can’t just shop everything at once from a new vendor you find).
Initially I was put off by the double damage, but the heal being short and x3 I think compensates for it (plus, you can do it mid air etc.).
If anything I find the walkbacks much shorter than in the original. There is always a bench 30s/1m away from each boss or tough platforming section. At least so far…
I am using in on my FP3+ for about 4 years. The only app that didn’t work for me was myswimpro and I suppose it is because I am blocking ads/trackers at network level. Biometrical login to my bank app doesn’t work (the app doesn’t allow it, rather).
No other problems so far.
He praised the choice trump made for the antitrust office back in December.
I have written my opinion on why this was way overblown, if you are interested.
In the video scheduled to be posted on YouTube apparently there were more elements (talked about their own dressing style and not feeling either a man or a woman - according to some articles which translated the pages in russian).
I think this is overall irrelevant anyway. In their manifesto they go all over the place ideologically, from holocaust praise to trans rights, apparently. It’s not like there was a consistent motivation behind, they were clearly unwell mentally - reporting depression and suicidal thoughts for years - and did the shooting to be killed.
In this case I am quite happy to be out of the loop, frankly. I can live in blissful ignorance of at least this stuff.
I feel completely out of the loop when stuff like this happens.
I went looking around and found an article that expanded a lot on this topic, https://maxread.substack.com/p/who-killed-jean-pormanove
Someone runs MongoDB unauthenticated, bound on 0.0.0.0 with production data, on a computer without a VPN, and the problem is the WiFi?
Like I get what you are saying, but this sounds like saying that we should ban speedbumps because imagine there is a guy with a loaded gun pointed at a kid with no safe, finger on the trigger, and high on coke, if the car hits the speedbump the toddler is gone. Yeah, but I would hardly say the speedump is the issue.
This is not really a common or easy attack, especially for any meaningful service (that is probably in preloaded HSTS lists).
It’s not like this is the only shared network. In airports millions of people everyday connect to the same network.
That tracking is done in a much more effective and capillary way by tracking cell towers. I think MAC tracking is a much better option, assuming there are enough of these APs to track.
Because native russian speakers don’t have the perspective of learning it as a second language. Of course everything we learn as kids looks more obvious later on. I think the Russian cursive is at least one level above of complexity compared to at least neolatin languages (like Italian, French, etc.). I don’t know about German though.
Also, it might be a matter of familiarity in general. All Russian speakers I have known could always read Latin characters, so the alphabet is probably generally more familiar to most people compared to Greek or Cyrillic alphabet.
