Often Soviet Russia is contrasted with West... but... if we look at early Soviets...

Two out of Holy Trinity (Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels) were German Jews living in UK. They hated Russia so translators had to omit parts of their works

Lenin and many other revolutionaries spent much time in Switzerland, Austria etc...

Soviets instantly switched to Gregorian calendar.

Soviets promoted use of Esperanto language.

Soviets intended to switch Russian language to Latin script but as popultaion was unhappy with it the plan was scrapped and never tried again.

Why do you capitalize SOUL? Because of that Indy PRG?

With all that progress in machine learning, WHEN will be we able to upscale frame rate of old animes from effective 5-8 fps to 60 fps?

Early pre-neural network attempt (SVP) is about as effective as nil, older DAIN still leaves a lot to be desired.

Another phenotype difference which is tabooed is penis size.

Not many posts about Ukraine latter days. Ukraine fatigue?

Uh. Do we have animated userpics already? This makes me sad... I think animations do not suit this place.

poor immune systems

sorry, what?

I think of Ann Coulter law analogy.

More time without any solid evidence presented, increases certainty that US or US-aligned actor did it.

The cultural grip of 'the West' doesn't exist

I think you misread it, Ilforte wrote "grip ON the West".

I tried BH and was extremely unhappy with it

I believe that growing up in a middle-class two-parent household has a greater effect on a child's life outcomes than

Because you don't have evidence, it looks like "I believe that growing up in a middle-class two-parent household has a greater effect on a child's life outcomes than" is based on faith

Smolensk NPP size is irrelevant, it's a RBMK-type reactor which is large compared to any other type of nuclear reactor. Water-water reactors are a lot smaller.

Growing in two-parent household isn't an independent variable. Earlier, a parent might die to war or natural causes, or slave master moved them to another location. Now, in rich 1 st world countries, living with 1 parent is usually because one or both parents are bad at impulse control (assholes), which is correlated with intelligence and anything.

IE when you control for genetics the differences don't go away.

source?

FWIW, there's large environmental differences between rich countries (like yours) and poor countries, but this usually isn't talked much about.

Journalists and academia. They're not 50% conservaties. What your median conservatives says is irreleveant

Those called by far right usually don't like East Asian getting higher IQs, ditto Jews.

The retaliation for Crimean Bridge attack was pretty significant, imo

Hire a supervisor with a whip who would oversee your work.

what does adlib tracker do? Does it plays music from notes?

no, i thought about the one making a big fuss on 'determination'. Undertale

and assassinates people near Moscow

Did you miss that part that a lot of Ukrainians live in Russia, and Ukrainians still can enter Russia without a visa, while Baltic sea isn't full of Ukrainians boats/subs?

Further, all war since the industrial revolution has been trending against the concept of numerical superiority.

Sorry, what? Mass production of guns is what enables mass armies, it's a lot faster to learn to use gun than sword or bow (which required life dedication to efficiently use).

Completely lopsided kill ratios existed well before Maxium gun. Historically horses chariots were a big game changer too. Battle of Otumba, etc.

The Russians had essentially limitless cannon fodder

that's both unkind and untrue. The Soviets had numerical advantage but not that much. 170 million USSR in 1939 vs 80 million Third Reich (and what if you count only ethnic Russians)? . Considering how much better was German war machine than Soviet (in part, because of Stalin cleansed nearly all military leadership and officers) it wasn't impossible target.

India has no shortage of high-IQ individuals

For country of 1.5 billion, they do have a shortage.

What Germany could do better for Russia? Germany sends tiny amounts of weapons to Ukraine. It's US weapons & intel which is a problem for Russia.

least until he feels ready to take on the West directly, which is not yet.

Could this ever happen in Putin's lifetime? Even considering how long Putin's parents lived long, still looks unreal.

because Putin de-facto had all that already

Not quite. Also, the Dniepr-Crimea water canal was closed by Ukraine.
