> Exploiting Ukraine in any way for business reasons like this
Where are you getting this take from? The founder calling the shots seems to be Ukrainian. The entire article is about them doing everything they can to take care of their team and their country.
And as for why they keep working, his account of the opinion of his female employees hiding in bunkers to reduce the chance of rape:
> I asked them to rest and take care of themselves & their relatives, but they told me that work kept them mentally stable.
- AndrewUnmuted 4y ago> Where are you getting this take from? The founder calling the shots seems to be Ukrainian. That's where this "take" comes from. The fact that the founder is Ukrainian, and instead of addressing the immense geopolitical complexities of the turmoil in which he & his countrymen find themselves, they exploit the pain to give benefit and PR to their technology startup. Either the situation in Ukraine is not quite as dire as the post suggests, or the founder is insane. Either way, he's a liar and a manipulative person who has their priorities backwards. Actual wars do not allow for venture capital based software firms to take hold. For fuck's sake, when the US bombed Iraq senselessly for two straight years, they managed to blow up an entire Al Jazeera location along with the hopes and dreams of all the citizenry there. There are hardly any young men anymore in that country thanks to us. Technology has not improved that much over the last two decades to make the theater of war any different today.
