Life is not a race or a videogame. Every person decides the goals and follows them.

There is no right or wrong. There is no goal. We have limited time in this world and it is up to us to decide what to do with that time.

Go fight them in Ukraine. What are you waiting for?

Would it be possible to use warm or hot water in any useful way, instead of just releasing it in the sea?

The fact that I was born in Soviet Union. Also the fact that the place I was born is now the capital of an Islamic country. Also the fact that I think that Asian cultures in some aspects are better than western ones.

More likely, they have messy legacy mainframe systems and they cannot find anyone to keep them in business. Bu touching such systems is extremely dangerous.

I translated an article form Russian press agency Interfaks:

The Russian Ministry of Finance, which has repeatedly announced plans to issue bonds in yuan, which have not yet been implemented, may place such debt securities before the end of the year, Reuters reports, citing sources in the financial market and the ministry.

The target date for the placement is early December, and the Ministry of Finance is counting on a wide range of investors: from banks and management companies to brokers operating in the retail client market, according to one of the agency's interlocutors. Several issues worth the equivalent of 100 billion rubles each can be placed.

For the first time, the Ministry of Finance announced plans to place yuan-denominated bonds on the Moscow Stock Exchange back in November 2015. Since then, this topic has regularly appeared in discussions.

Initially, it was planned that these would be bonds placed on the Moscow Exchange, the buyers of which would be large investors from mainland China. This placement option was complicated by the need to resolve regulatory issues related, among other things, to restrictions for Chinese investors to purchase foreign securities, representatives of the Russian Ministry of Finance explained.

At the end of 2017, Western and Russian media sources claimed that the placement of bonds in yuan by the Ministry of Finance was a matter of several weeks, but in the end the deal did not take place, although these plans did not disappear from the agenda.

In September 2022, Timur Maksimov, then Deputy Finance Minister and in charge of borrowing, commented on the issue of placing bonds in yuan, saying that the Ministry of Finance has two models for placing such bonds. The first one is more complicated and involves the participation of Chinese investors. The second option is to place yuan bonds for local Russian investors. According to him, this model may make sense if the federal budget finances its foreign exchange operations in yuan, since in fact, such an allocation is the transfer of free yuan liquidity to budget accounts.

This is not an isolated incident, but a preview: more liberal masks are poised to fall.

Isn't it a bit early to write that?

The expected result is that both China and India will stop buying seaborne crude oil from Russia and purchase more pipeline crude oil. Currently, China buys ~1.4 million barrels per day (bpd) via ships and ~800,000 - 900,000 bpd via pipelines.

Russia already transports about 10 million tons of oil per year (roughly 200,000 bpd) through the Atasu-Alashankou pipeline in Kazakhstan. Even before the latest sanctions, Russia had proposed increasing this volume by 2.5 million tons annually, making this existing route the most immediate and feasible path for boosting pipeline deliveries to China.

I agree in part, but the YouTube recommendation system is really broken. Even if you told YouTube several times that you don't want to see content from that clickbait channel, YouTube will keep on showing it to you in the main page.

If you watch YouTube from a desktop computer or a browser, you can bookmark this URL here https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions and unsubscribe all people who do clickbait videos

Also stacktraces are very useful, and overflow/underflow exceptions too. So many modern and useful features were missing!

Having a try/catch block is much better than using Goto Err

For books, Alibris https://www.alibris.com/ has a very nice bargain section.

For other things, AliExpress is way cheaper, just do not buy expensive or tech stuff there.

Self-diagnosing depression can be unhelpful. What you're experiencing may be something simpler and more easily treatable.
