Russians, I hope. But if we look at history, it’s more likely that the answer is almost everyone else as well.

All the best people left Russia already a decade ago.

Lol, if something should break up, it’s the Russian Federation. It’s always reflection with these people.

Are we too classy to start a similar campaign in Russia?

Are you an LLM?

2.7% market share.

As a comparison number, Linux’s market share is around 4.7% right now.

I went to Rome with my wife and stayed at an Airbnb thing. The guy who rented it to us looked like a mafia boss and wanted the payment in cash.
