  • You seem to be a very novice programmer.

    how do I setup my dev environment

    ? Google that? Use a devcontainer? I mean literally a question answered thousands of times.

    where should I start

    Setting up your dev environment. Then maybe create a few projects for you to test your package manager empirically?

    do I invent my own pkg format or do I use pre built packages like deb or rpm?

    Depends on what you want to do. I’m honestly not sure how to help you here? What kind of answer are you fishing for here?






  • I see. The sources you’re quoting (at least some, but again - gish gallop) do paint this picture a little bit differently.

    Human Rights Watch said that insurgent forces have failed to take all feasible precautions to avoid deploying in densely populated areas, thereby endangering civilians in violation of the laws of war. In one case, separatist forces moved their base closer to the center of the town when Grad rockets struck their base and a nearby residential area.

    That’s literally human shield strategy done by Donetsk insurgents.

    Russian propaganda parts is to omit that information to put them in pity position instead conflicting position.

    Another example, the Hill:

    The odious Russian media tried to paint Ukraine as a land of Nazis, though that is patently wrong

    I think you might be misunderstanding something and imagining me saying there is not US propaganda or Ukrainian propaganda, for example whitewashing Azov?








  • As a person living next to Russia, I tend to follow it’s situation. I know that the exports from Russia to India has been declining for years, following India moving (not all yet) production of weaponry home. Only oil remains strong.

    Also India - I think - seems to be projecting more and more “Western” image. Not sure why. Maybe my perception is skewed here, because the CEOs of biggest corporations sound more and more indian every year. Maybe it’s Modi skipping Shanghai Cooperation Agreement summit - and generally avoiding public places where Putin is - since Russian invasion of Ukraine.

    So while Russia and India will remain trade partners and probable allies, I think they are currently trying to figure out how to increase their trade ties (and India might be wanting to be hush hush about it for Western publicity). There might be other challenges there - if I remember correctly, the current trade flow is that India buys significantly more from Russia than it sells there, so they might want to increase their exports - but this is totally my opinion.

    I know there were plans for more ports and trade corridors before the Ukraine invasion, but I don’t know their status now.

    India Russia hate each other to the bone

    I don’t think so. Russia supported India during Cold War, didn’t it? It also stood with India during India-Pakistani War. That counts for a lot, especially with older folks - and politicians tend to be older folks.





  • Well, I don’t know your use case well enough, but I guess you might have perfect reason for that behavior.

    One thing that comes to my mind is the old Try in C#

    bool parsedSuccessfully = int.TryParse("123", out int result);
    

    But I guess more popular approach would be to use Error as Values, right?

    E.g. something like this

    Outcome<Exception, Int> result = int.TotallyNewParse("123");
