I was born in the Soviet Union. Fortunately, I barely lived there as a conscious adult, but every family that went through it knows what communism is firsthand not from books.
Back then, the Communist Party committee decided everything. A man cheated on his wife → a meeting of equally imperfect men → and just like that, he lost his position and his career was destroyed.
Some time ago, the radical left in the US brought us cancel culture and similar practices. Believe me, this is something that must never be allowed to take root in the United States.
No one is perfect. Mistakes in personal life do not erase a person’s professional competence. This is a private matter neither the public nor a board of directors has the right to act as judge. A CEO’s job is to drive the company’s growth and success, not to be a faithful husband. That’s the beauty of capitalism. Or at least it was.
Jensen Huang is an outstanding man, and his resignation was wrong.
Zelenskyy, in Ireland, again insisted that military-age men who have left Ukraine must return, framing it as a matter of basic fairness while some fight and others do not.
The Irish prime minister politely but firmly signalled that his country would not force them back or trample on their human rights to do so.
Meanwhile, men are still being rounded up at home, often with bribes involved, and sent to a front where the Defence Ministry continues to be engulfed in corruption scandals. Instead of ending the war or addressing manpower shortages and corruption, Zelenskyy simply wants more bodies to turn into cannon fodder.
Forced mobilization in Ukraine continues. Right at a bus stop in Ivano-Frankivsk, they grab an ordinary man.
Just look at how many police officers are involved. They don’t deploy that many officers to deal with actual criminals.
And Zelenskyy remains silent about all of it — because the system works exactly the way he wants it to.
And I sure as hell hope there won't be any more.
Because working-class Americans have slightly different priorities than bankrolling another yacht for Pinchuk, a brand-new crocodile for Sokolov, or another luxury apartment in Israel for Mindich.
Looks like Zelenskyy and his buddies have already made quite a killing off Biden's generosity.

Мы достигли важного рубежа в развитии сервиса роботакси.
Как отметил @aelluswamy, версия FSD v15 открывает путь к ряду улучшений сервиса:
☑️ Более раннее обнаружение опасностей
☑️ Еще более быстрая реакция
☑️ Значительное повышение общего уровня безопасности и эффективности предотвращения столкновений
✅ Круглосуточная (24/7) работа роботакси
В июле, подводя итоги второго квартала, компания заявила: «Мы ожидаем, что время, необходимое для запуска сервиса в новом городе, будет стремиться к нулю. В конечном итоге мы перейдем к работе в масштабах целых штатов, а не отдельных городов».
По словам инженеров Tesla, программный стек версии v15 позволит масштабировать сервис роботакси быстрее и безопаснее.
Возможно, до полноценного запуска роботакси в масштабах целых штатов еще далеко, но переход к круглосуточному режиму работы свидетельствует о том, что новейшая система автономного вождения дает Tesla уверенность для дальнейшего расширения.

Et diktatur kommer ikke fra den ene dag til den anden. Det vokser frem gennem tavshed, når befolkningen holder op med at sige fra.
Demokratiet kræver, at vi tør stille spørgsmål – også når det er ubelejligt for magthaverne.
That look on your face when Budanov, the head of the Ukrainian delegation, gets so nervous during a press conference in Abu Dhabi that he switches from Ukrainian to Russian.🫣
Well, at least the languages are negotiating, even if the politicians aren't.
End this damn "brothers' war", boys.
Let ordinary people live long enough to watch their children grow up — preferably somewhere other than a cemetery.
