Yes, my own link: "Bandera's favorability appeared to shoot up rapidly, with 74% of Ukrainians viewing him favorably according to an April 2022 poll from a Ukrainian research organization."

I wonder what happened prior to April 2022 that would explain a significant jump?

It wasnt

I hope you have a different roof in a safer location now. It's a good reminder for everybody outside Ukraine that the war isn't just the news or the maps from the mil-vloggers; it's also lots of people who are homeless because their house has been bombed or demolished, their town occupied, and their lives disrupted in a myriad of ways. I really hope we can start rebuilding soon.

Thanks!

Russians had zero problem with storming an airport to try to kill jews. The reason they arent doing anything isnt because russians are scared. The reason is most russians dont want russia to loose the war and surrender to Ukraine and give up Crimea. Even Navalny said he would continue the occupation of crimea if he replaced Putin.

Those weren't "ethnic Russians", but rather their Dagestan colony which is quite Islamic and well, they obviously follow the same outrage news cycles hating on jews. Russia is a giant patchwork of colonies being held together by strongmen and the "ethnic Russians" more or less drain and extract the resources of every minority and send the money all to themselves in Moscow and St Petersburg.

They are the same Russians as others, thousands of them are killing Ukrainians right now, for money mostly.

Promise to get paid 2000$ per month is enough motivation to go to the other country thousands of kilometers away from their home and kill everyone there and probably die.

After full scale invasion support of Bandera increased because he was vocal proponent of independent Ukraine, not because he was a nazi collaborator.

It is an argument in bad faith to cite him as a marker of support for 'neo-nazism' in Ukraine, doubly so during time when adversary is coming and is very open about stripping you of your national identity, language and history.

>Neonazism does indeed enjoy broad support there. Not any more than US or Russia itself

Are there any official Nazi regiments or heros officially admired by the US? (In Russia you have the motorcyle gang with strong links to neonazism who are buddies with Putin edit: but upon a quick check, that might have been propaganda from the other side).

You assume Azov is official Nazi.

It isn't, and never was.

There were a few people there who flirted with neo nazism back in 2014. They were rooted out swiftly. There is a reason why every time you ask Russians for proof that Azov is Nazi they show the same old and / or manipulated photos.

Today Azov has representatives of most minorities in Ukraine, including "ethnic Russians" and Jews.

Meanwhile, one of the founders of Task Force Rusisch said something along this in an interview (IIRC and I don't speak Russian natively):

> Let's not mince words, I am not a "nationalist", I am a nazi.

Of course in our “freedom of speech” democratic western culture you can’t say this. How dare you? Ukraine on its own can’t win this war. Russia has way more reserves, people and resources. Not even talking about nuclear weapons. Do you really think Russia will accept losing this war? A nuclear superpower? Last resort they can send some nukes. So, why continue sending more weapons and money to a war which if escalates…

Nuclear weapon in current world is an expensive show of power, but completely useless. No one can use it.

If you think that after retreat from Ukraine Russian will use nukes - you are consuming too much Russian propaganda.

There are plenty of greenfield use cases where Rust will need to bind to existing C and C++ libraries.

I guess the field I was imagining was greener than that. But yes. In many cases you can just interface to the C libraries. But cross language coding has never been perfect, and yes, sometimes it's better to continue using the same language. It's not hard to write an RAII wrapper around a C library, and the careful allocate/free is code you have to write either way (e.g. I'd write a wrapper in C++ if I need to use a C…

So many of the CVEs against rust crates are actually against the bindings for things like ssl, glibc, and libcurl. I think accepting small growing subsets of ssl and curl for native implementation would be a good idea. And relibc too I suppose. Go went this route, and while it caused some headaches porting to new kernels, it has lots of benefits too.

OP here, ready to answer questions

Not a question, only my best wishes as an early NAFO member.

You are in my thoughts, and not only: I have also been donating, flagging trolls, countering misinformation, encouraged politicians and done what I can but I still owe your people.

I feel I can admit this here without feeling I am bragging since this account is anonymous and will stay so. My goal by saying it is to say you are bit alone and also hopefully to encourage others to take small steps to help, like asking a politician, supporting civilians (or frontline heroes) by donating, flagging misinformation etc.

The explanation: > I regret to inform the community that since my house was destroyed by russians who invaded my country, Wasm3 will enter a minimal maintenance phase. At this time, I am unable to continue the development of new features. However, I am committed to keeping the project alive and will actively review and merge incoming Pull Requests. I deeply appreciate your understanding and support during this diffic…

Ouch. That house needs a new roof ASAP to halt the rain and snow.

Probably needs walls and windows too.
