Being direct is good. But ‘too complex, refactor’ as an explanation is just one word longer than ‘fuck off’. You need to explain in detail why the solution is bad and which parts should be changed, in this case it just shows that the reviewer did not actually read the code.

We want to inhibit when running stuff like pacman, wget, cp or mv

There is already a separate systemd-inhibit command that does exactly what you need. Trust your users, they are capable of googling it (most of the time).

Only pacman and wget will benefit from suspend inhibition, because it will prevent breaking network connections. cp and mv will resume working just fine even when you hibernated your laptop while cp was executing. And in that case it’s less bug-prone to scan your system for active TCP connections to external addresses instead of adding a hack wakelock inside your terminal or inside wget.

It is also a poor idea to mess up with system-wide settings from some command when the user does not expect it, you’ll likely to get a thousand invalid bug reports that sleep mode is broken when some service randomly decides to use wget to continuously read from local Unix socket.

Jumping from loose-typed language to strict-typed language will be hard.

It’s also a matter of your general programming experience. Once you write, like, ten thousand lines of meaningful code in Python, learning C# should take you a month or two at most, you’ll know most programming concepts and algorithms intrinsically, and the rest is just learning syntax.

What kind of statistics do you expect? Evaluating the financial situation of everyone who crossed the border would be complicated, if not illegal. The last census in Ukraine was done in 2001, we don’t even know the total population number, we can only estimate.

From acquaintances and colleagues who left Ukraine in 2022.

Many of these people have an apartment or other property left in Ukraine. There’s an incentive to return. And not everyone can learn a new language.

Ha, everyone knows that cocaine grows on coca trees, not banana trees.

Put on some socks you heathens

It’s called ‘Palianytsia’ because russians have trouble pronouncing that word.

Torvalds kicked out a bunch of Russia-based kernel maintainers.

I had the root canal done without an anesthesia, because I did not want a needle sticking into my gum.

It was tolerable, I did not cry or anything like. The nerve was mostly dead anyway.

The dentist took his sweet time removing the nerve piece by piece with a probe, instead of just drilling the whole tooth through. It did not matter at the end anyway, because he filled the canal afterwards. And the molar has three roots, so he repeated that two more times.

I guess it depends on your pain tolerance.

C++ with -Wall -Werror, and no pointer diddling.

SDL2, with Android NDK, commandline version.

Here’s a Super Mario first level theme, 10 hours mix. You are welcome.

Extend C++ for safety

I stopped reading after this. Why do you think C++ is unsafe in the first place? Someone decided ro extend it, and now you cannot even read an error message without finishing an university course on lambda calculus first.

At this point russians target whatever will make bigger news. If putin cannot make other countries respect his power, he’ll at least show everyone how unhinged he is.

Considering how the plans for the counterattack were leaked by everyone and their mom last year, this time they did the right thing with secrecy.
