They just copied American technology. It's really aesthetic some of it but it was literally just reverse engineered American tech.
I've also been looking for some old soviet science books as they apparently taught marxist thought together with physics, chemistry and mathematics. It's very interesting.

The Linux kernel is not too difficult to contribute to.
Find a device that's poorly supported. Write a driver.

That's impossible to answer without knowing what you're interested in and what you can do. Maybe try improving some software you're using yourself already.

>>60410267
here's a similarity: they are all inferior to python.
>>
just ignore c#, it's M$'s way of trying to butt in the C world.
focus on C, then move to C++
>>
C frequency is 16.35Hz
C# frequency is 17.32Hz
C++ is some abomination
