«…if you ask a traditional combinatorialists they would be happy to tell you they they like their area to be trend-resistant. They wouldn’t use these words, obviously, but rather say something about timeless, or beautiful art (…) If you’ve been reading this blog for a while, then you already know how I feel about such backward-looking views. When these win, the area becomes stale, isolated, and eventually ignored by both junior researchers and the “establishment” (…) Personally, I don’t see this happening in part due to the influence of Theoretical Computer Science (…)
Last year, in the middle of a technical complexity theoretic argument, I learned of a yet another very general direction which seem to have been overlooked. I will discuss it briefly in this blog post…»

"Someone posing as a Ukrainian citizen just joins the chat and starts spreading misinformation, or gathers data, like the location of shelters," Tsekhanovska said, noting how false messages have urged Ukrainians to turn off their phones at a specific time of night, citing cybersafety. On Feb. 27, however, he admitted from his Russian-language account that "Telegram channels are increasingly becoming a source of unverified information related to Ukrainian events." The picture was mixed overseas. Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index fell 1.6%, under pressure from U.S. regulatory scrutiny on New York-listed Chinese companies. Stocks were more buoyant in Europe, where Frankfurt’s DAX surged 1.4%. On February 27th, Durov posted that Channels were becoming a source of unverified information and that the company lacks the ability to check on their veracity. He urged users to be mistrustful of the things shared on Channels, and initially threatened to block the feature in the countries involved for the length of the war, saying that he didn’t want Telegram to be used to aggravate conflict or incite ethnic hatred. He did, however, walk back this plan when it became clear that they had also become a vital communications tool for Ukrainian officials and citizens to help coordinate their resistance and evacuations. In this regard, Sebi collaborated with the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (TRAI) to reduce the vulnerability of the securities market to manipulation through misuse of mass communication medium like bulk SMS.
