Владимир Путин заявил о рекордных темпах добровольной мобилизации в РФ. Что с этими цифрами не так?
▶️Российские власти постоянно подчеркивают, якобы, успешную мобилизацию, которая основана на добровольцах-контрактниках. В последних заявлениях Путин упомянул, что контракт с ВС РФ подписывают уже около 50 тысяч человек в месяц.
▶️Если ориентироваться исключительно на данные Минобороны РФ и Путина, то все волны добровольцев и мобилизованных должны были бы сформировать группу войск в 1,5-1,7 миллиона человек. 180 тысяч контрактников, которые начали вторжение в 2022 году (потери среди них, якобы, были минимальны), мобилизованные 300 тысяч в 2022 году, 540 тысяч контрактников в 2023 году и более 450 тысяч контрактников в 2024 году. В 2025 еще около 250 тысяч, если ориентироваться на данные Путина.
▶️Вместе с этим численность войск в зоне так называемой СВО, согласно данным самого Путина, около 700 тысяч военнослужащих. Более чем вдвое меньше, нежели набранных добровольцев и мобилизованных.
▶️Огромный "излишек" мог бы объясняться отличной ротацией. Если Россия действительно набрала около миллиона контрактников только в 2023 и 2024 годах, то этого должно было бы с огромным запасом хватить на полную замену мобилизованных в 2022 году. Все они должны были легко вернуться домой и быть заменены контрактниками, которых, якобы, набрали даже значительно больше, чем нужно.
▶️Вместе с этим в реальности демобилизироваться крайне сложно даже с тяжелыми ранениями. В открытом доступе буквально тысячи историй про отказ в демобилизации, в том числе тех, кто был призван по мобилизации в 2022 году. Официальных данных нет, но можно уверено сказать, что освобождены от службы всего несколько процентов мобилизованных.
❓Таким образом возникает вопрос: Россия набрала около 1,7 миллиона военнослужащих. Группа войск в Украине - 700 тысяч. Постоянных ротаций и освобождений от службы ранее мобилизованных нет. Куда делись сотни тысяч "лишних" военных, если потери российской армии, якобы, минимальны?
Помощь зала? Звонок другу? 50 на 50?

TKP-ML IB Statement On The Commemoration Of The Nakba
Resistance Until Liberation: The Unfinished Return
On the 78th anniversary of the Nakba, we stand with Palestinians everywhere to shatter the silence that hides ongoing dispossession. In May 1948, more than seven hundred thousand lives were uprooted so that colonial powers could plant their flags in the Middle East. The violence of 1948 did not end with history; it echoes today in Gaza’s relentless blockade, where families endure chronic shortages of food, water, fuel, and medicine; in the West Bank, where airstrikes and sniper fire stalk children playing in the streets; and in Jenin and other refugee camps, where bulldozers raze homes by night and soldiers carry out mass arrests at dawn.
We fully expose, in all its brutality, the settler-colonial Zionist ideology that legitimizes the genocide against the Palestinian people. Imperialist states arm occupation forces, spin tales of “peace” and “stability,” and look away as bombs fall on refugee tents and entire neighborhoods are flattened. Their calculated silence is part of a broader strategy of re-division, an ominous prelude to a new imperialist world war in which Palestine is but one battlefield among many. Yet their plots only bind us more tightly together in solidarity.
Our solidarity is rooted in everyday acts: workers refusing to service weapons factories, students organizing divestment campaigns on campuses, and communities hosting Palestinian artists and speakers. We bring Palestinian voices into our unions, our neighborhoods, and our classrooms, offering spaces where their stories are heard, learned, and passed on. Through these actions we make clear that the right to return is not a distant hope but a shared responsibility and collective mission.
As long as checkpoints still choke movement, blockades starve families, and imperialist powers scheme fresh carve-ups under the threat of a third world war, our solidarity will pulse through every corner of the globe. We are bound together in struggle until every Palestinian can walk home again, unhampered by colonial walls.
Long live the struggle of the Palestinian People!
Long live International Solidarity!
Free Palestine!

I have been in software development for quite some time. I have tried vibe-coding several times. I just don't get it.
The AI agent makes fundamental mistakes, and it takes many prompts to fix them. The AI rewrites the entire file even if changing just one line is enough.
Also, just writing the code is often easier than explaining what I want to do to the AI.
It's frustrating.

Are these personal or corporate friends? Or the personal corporate friends one typically gains after passing certain treshold of github stars? You know, the nice marketing & sales friends who milk you for PR value based on popularity metrics. Buddies that see you as product, hook you as bait.
After all why mention github if you know these people on personal basis? I know plenty people working at big tech whom I respect based on their values and actions to back them up. No need to list employer.
