Belokoņs esot maksājis par jumtu nelaiķim Berezovskim. Tā Financial Times.

"Latvians may recall Berezovsky’s visit to Latvia in 2005 when he was greeted not only by Belokon but also by Vienotiba Party founder Einars Repse. Latvians also may recall that Belokon was caught giving money to Repse by purchasing an overpriced countryside property from him. Berezovsky and his protégé Roman Abramovich, according to themselves, installed Vladimir Putin as President of Russia starting in 2000. Repse was one of the chief engineers of the fraudulent bailout of Parex Bank in 2009."

"halting problem arguments guarantee the non-existence of static analysis tools that can reliably and automatically detect even simple kinds of bugs such as divide by zero. In practice, it’s not halting problem stuff that stops analyzers but rather code that has a lot of indirection and a lot of data-dependent control flow. If you want to make a program that is robustly resistant to static analysis, implement some kind of interpreter."
