As an ethnic Russian, I completely support it. Barbaric Putin's regime should not be treated as a legitimate state.

If there's no specific restriction in the license agreement, AI can use your code to study. If you don't like it, close your repo. End of story.

Examples of "copied code" provided are pathetic. It's like acquisition of stealing `i` variable from `for` cycle.

Where to sign a petition against luddites?

They stole my `i` variable from `for` cycle.

Russian immigrant and enemy of the regime here. Russian and Belarusian dissidents who were granted asylum, usually have a residence in a new country, thus, they are not subject to sanctions.

People who willingly stay in Russia, should be punished regardless of their position, because they fund the aggressor's army with their taxes and even fines, which they pay for their anti-government activities.

Airbnb is irrelevant for people within Russia, and it's not the point. But for fleeing dissidents, two points:

1) to get a asylum they somehow need to escape the country first, and stay somewhere before getting to the country of destination. This policy makes it a problem.

2) the policy, as it is worded, is applied to everyone who holds russian citisenship, regardless of residence. This is supported by the acecdotical evidence of my friend's reservation cancelled, who has a residence in South Africa.

But your overall position about punishing people staying in Russia regardless of their views is rather myopic. How do you ever plan to overthrow Putin's regime if you are severing all means of support for your allies within Russia? They are already oppressed from within, and you further their oppression from the outside. Good job!

Not sure what people don't like in your answer, probably the truth. Bordering with Russia always includes some tragic history - occupation of the Baltic States and Romania, Winter War, occupation of Poland, occupation of the whole Eastern Europe, brutal oppression of Hungary's revolution 1959 and Czechoslovakia in 1968. Moldova 1992, Georgia 2008, and now Ukraine. At this moment Russia evolved into a completely totalitarian fascist state, while the West still plays Appeasement Policy with it, just like with Germany in 1938-39.

The whole Western culture turned into a crazy chainsaw sawing itself.

When Russian officials would be charged for destruction of MH-17 and killing everyone aboard?

Since 2014, all offers I received were from companies which found me in LinkedIn, and some of them were exceptionally good. The secret is in building your network, not just adding every single recruiter, but picking up contacts who may fit your career goals. Currently I have about 600 contacts all over the world, and referrals from almost all Big Tech companies.

Yes, and the main source of lies called RT exist absolutely officially, spreading Goebbels-style national hatred and crazy anti-vax disinformation.
