  • yes, sure, but resources, labour and a market isn’t enough to elevate you to a global superpower. I’m not proposing EU going full Juche, just why would anyone agree to anything better for russia than being equal trade partners. All those things are great and useful, sure, but you’re able to get them elsewhere. If you want special treatment you need to bring something unique to the table. Like the US used to be able to bring.

    Futile attempts to destroy it, won’t work

    I don’t think anybody except maybe putin is trying to do that. At this point everyone would love russia just fucking off and being normal.


  • Europe seems to need a moment to let go, but if US isn’t forcing them into it, the rest of the world has already been open to Russia and China

    I mean, what would Europe need from russia? We’re currently more of a “global power” then they are. Only countries seriously aligning themselves with Russia those days are either extremely weak and near russia and so have 0 choice in the matter or try to play both sides for fun and profit LARPing as Tito.











  • Fajne. Oczywiście to nie technologia jest fajna, tylko fakt, że nie spotkasz tam “normalnych” ludzi. Taka kontr/antykultura, gdzie ludzie piszą specjalnie po to, żeby trafić do niewielu osób. Trochę jak ziny. Ja nie mam nic do powiedzenia w dłuższych formach niż kilkuzdaniowe komentarze, więc mogę tam co najwyżej słuchać. Ale fajne.

    But it has been changed a lot?

    The most basic immediate execution four operation calculator might still look the same, but that’s because it’s a very simple thing and you can’t really get much wrong. For scientific calculators the UI has changed lots. As have the requirements. It used to be a specialist tool used to do thousands of calculations daily. An expensive thing that had to earn its keep. RPN and stuff like that made sense for people who could easily get back weeks of training in just a few years of being slightly more efficient while working. Now we have the natural order delayed execution thing, because the calculators are mostly for students. Who need the UI to be as easy to grasp as possible, because they won’t ever have to do enough calculations to benefit from a faster but harder UI. That doesn’t mean any of those approaches to UI is better or worse. Some things require instructions and making everything idiot-proof shouldn’t ever be the ultimate goal (check out modern computing for why!).
