The man on the left applied for a Canadian passport to avoid military service in South Africa. The dude on the right dodged the draft due to bone spurs.
One of them is now actively attacking people who fought for their country, calling them traitors.

Zelenskyy: He broke the ceasefire. He killed our people. He did not exchange prisoners. We signed the exchange of prisoners, but he didn't do it. What kind of diplomacy you are speaking about?
Vance: I think it's disrespectful for you to come into the oval office and try to litigate this in front of them American media

When I look at thus beautiful pedestrian bridge in Warsaw, I think of all the great things your country can do when Russia isn't your neighbor.
It took Poles 45 years to get rid of the Russians, 30 years later, it's now the fastest growing economy in EU.

‼️ "Men in Blue" part 2
We have identified agents of the Russian secret services in the "Crocus" hall
Our editorial staff continues to analyze photos and videos of the terrorist #CrocusCityHallAttack and everything related to it.
In our previous publication we told about the oddities captured on one of the videos a couple of minutes before the shooting started in the concert hall. It showed several similarly dressed men in blue sweaters and jeans first looking at each other suspiciously and then began urging the crowd to "close the doors", resulting in a huge loss of human life.
Our editorial staff assumed that these might be #FSB officers, due to their far from clean reputation concerning terrorist attacks in #Russia.
By continuing to study open source information, we tried to identify the "men in blue" who aroused our suspicions. Due to the poor quality of the video, it is difficult to compare the faces of these men with the open database. But we still managed to find one alleged "FSB officer".
In the video from the concert hall, at some moment, one of the "men in blue" can be seen going down from the top row instead of leaving the hall like everyone else. Then he, supports the calls for the doors to be closed. His face is clearly visible, so we managed to find a photo of a very similar person in open sources.
This photo was posted on the website of the Municipal Budgetary Institution "Sosensky Sports Center". The photo shows a man receiving an award for third place in an arm wrestling competition. The composition and general facial features are quite similar to one of the "men in blue" from the concert hall in "Crocus".
At this stage we were met by another "unexpected coincidence". In the Moscow settlement of Sosenskoye, where this sports center is based, the headquarters of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service is located.
However, the story about the "men in blue" did not end with just one video. In the footage of the arrest of one of the terrorists, we also paid attention to the "civilian" clothes of the law enforcers.
As you can see, it is also blue. We assume that specifically in the case of the terrorist attack in "Crocus", the "undercover law enforcers" used these popular colors in order not to stand out from the crowd and at the same time to have a marker "friend" or "foe".
Moreover, if we analyze the footage from the video inside the hall before the shooting, we can notice another "man in blue" sitting behind the author of the video. The face of this alleged FSB officer can be compared with the footage of detention of one of the terrorists. Yes, his face is hidden by a mask, but his features, the shape of his head, the position of his eyes, indicate that it is the same person.
The day after the terrorist attack at Crocus City Hall, Russian propagandists published a video interview with the allegedly heroic act of one of the attendees of the concert who "managed to knock out the terrorist with his bare hands and save dozens of people".
It is noteworthy that in the video the "hero" sits with his back to the camera to hide his face and again by an "amazing coincidence" he is wearing a blue sweatshirt.
It can also be seen that our "hero" gives interviews wearing a hat that is similar to the one we see on special services during the arrest of terrorists (example: previous photo).
To summarize, we can't say with a hundred percent confidence that these people are members of the special services, but we also can't ignore all the oddities and inconsistencies of this tragedy, one of which is the very appearance of these people during the terrorist attack. People who have had to face agents of special services in civilian clothes can identify them by their behavior, style of dress and gesticulation. "Men in Blue" look like special services agents who don't even try to disguise themselves.
But all the strangeness of the terrorist attack in Crocus City Hall does not end with them. The official version of the Russian authorities is ridiculous and even absurd, and the number of various oddities in the whole picture of the terrorist attack is very huge. We will definitely talk about this in our future publications.

1. Yes it’s still operating
2. Before the 75% staff cut, this business generated ~$5B in revenue. After the cut it is likely to generate ~$2.5B
3. The savings from the firings are likely around $1-$1.5B
Save $1.5 to lose $2.5 (at least the short term!)

Have you looked at the lighthouse score for amazon.com? Despite all abismal performance score, Amazon still manages to run a successful business for which performance has massive bottom line implications.
Maybe take these lighthouse numbers with a grain of salt.

PHP did the markup and server code mixing 20 years ago and collectively decided its a bad idea as it becomes unmaintanable pretty fast.
Now that gets further complicated by also mixing with frontend-stack complexity...
Can somebody explain to me why that is a good idea now?

My mom knows nothing about programming
But watches every video I make
That’s why I say “hi mom!” instead of “hello, world!” in every video.
I even leave easter eggs just for her that nobody else would understand.
She’s pretty funny and sends me text messages after every video.
But those messages stopped coming recently.
She got sick
Then really sick
Then passed away at 60
So don’t forget to say hi to your mom today
It really sucks when you can’t anymore
Bye mom

The recent wealth tax increase in Norway was expected to bring an additional $146M in yearly tax revenue
Instead, an estimated $54B-worth of ultra-rich left the country, leading to a lost $594M in yearly wealth tax revenue
A net decrease of $448M+

As someone who's been mostly pro-Elon Twitter, this seems exclusionary and desperate
Directly antithetical to the interconnected nature and intrinsic beauty of the internet
