    Fun fact: Recently FSB database on border crossings from 2014 to 2023 was leaked online and Durov visited Russia 50 times since 2015. In fact, he was in Russia the day the telegram…

    >It was unblocked because of the backlash from people, incl. Russian politicians who are heavy Telegram users. FSB has nothing to do with it. Saying Russian government would give a…

    Except there were multiple different groups that magically happen to go private at the same time. I'm not even going to mention how many people were arrested over telegram messages…

    Obviously FSB is not going to make a press release and be like "We have the keys LOL" so there would never be definitive proof. Fun fact: Telegram at some point was blocked in Russ…

    i'm pretty sure ALGOL allowed spaces in identifiers. Probably some other old programming languages too. For the most part, it's just a tradition at this point.

    You dont need "helicopter money". Just create money and spend it on something. Build roads, rails, tanks, whatever. >That money will not end up in the hands of those who need it. Y…

    So you took asm code that had no SIMD instructions in it, made your own version in c++ with intrinsics and figured out that, yes, SIMD is faster? Realy? I think you're completely m…

    It's funny reading comments here, Hackernews bros really think they're smarter than the guys who made ffmpeg/x264/x265 etc. Dunning–Kruger effect in action.
