Americans on my English Threads are happy: since the attacks on Yandex, there are way fewer pro-Trump MAGA bots in their comments. Trump said Ukraine needs a new president, but looks like another country will get one soon. How do you like that, Elon Musk?

Finally! Exactly what we were missing. How did we ever live in the Moscow region without the largest pretrial detention center in Russia?

We'll fix this Yandex in 2 days, easy. What's there to fix, for God's sake? It's just Yandex! Put in a hundred billion worth of servers and done 😁

So where did all the Kremlin bots go? Were they hosted on Yandex and went down with it? 🤔

Feels like users in Russia are actually glad Yandex got bombed. Don't you think? 🤔

Peak surrealism: Yandex is updating its users via VPN on a network owned by an American company that Russia has banned as "extremist". This isn't 1984 anymore, it's 2026! And according to Terminator, the machine uprising comes in 2029, so not long to wait.

Yandex Metrica (Russia's Google Analytics) has left the chat. Wonder what happened?

I moved to America almost 5 years ago. Ask me anything

AI sees America as its very own superweapon 😂

I think we're at a historic turning point. Looks like MAGA bots ran on Yandex, so Russia helped Trump become president. Midterms are coming and Americans are about to see how they were fooled. Trump and the GOP will lose badly but likely won't concede... What do you think?

It hurts to watch Russia's IT sector, once one of the world's most advanced and one I had a hand in, fall apart because of Putin and his war. For years the state kept out and the industry was ahead of everyone. Now it's not just falling behind, it's being physically destroyed.

Instead of ending the war, Trump is buying diesel from Russia - asking another dictator for help. That volume covers US demand for a day and a half and won't move prices. To me it's pure populism. How do you feel about Trump's clumsy attempts to save his ratings?

Kremlin: Trump didn't send Putin a birthday greeting. "There was no congratulatory telegram from Trump, none," Peskov said. Zelensky, on the other hand, sends his greetings almost daily 😂

A Moscow court banned using Russians' photos for nude deepfakes, going after an AI site with the slogan "undress your girlfriend with AI". Finally, now nobody can look at my nude pics anymore 🤣

I spent a year traveling across America in an RV. Ask me anything 👋

Trump told a rally Iran could bomb LA and San Diego. California's governor called it deranged and dangerous. No surprise: a deeply elderly man who no longer tracks reality and will pay any price to stay in power. Do you support this?

Putin just turned 74. Old men run most big countries right now, and it shows. They won't live to face the consequences, so they don't care what future they leave us. How do you feel about this?

Russia sentenced the creator of Masyanya - its own South Park - to 4 years, in absentia, over a cartoon episode. Jailing people over cartoons now. Was 4 years a fair sentence for a cartoon?

'AI out of control' news is cheap hype. If it really broke loose, we wouldn't even notice - Claude Code and Codex already ask permission at every step. Scare first, reassure after - both sell. Do you really think AI's about to go rogue?

Wagtail coded for a month mostly on GLM 5.3 Flash: ~1B tokens for $68. My take: match the model to the task. Cheap models for simpler work, even on a home server, with a stronger one like Claude Fable planning on top. How do you split tasks between models?
