There's nothing stopping anybody from forking the code and maintaining it--you can just do things. But, I would ask...was the excommunication of Eich worth it, all things considered? Have we learned anything?

Simple question: Does Russia owning more of Ukraine further the interests of the United States, European states, and/or NATO?

In a normal timeline, the way this was going to get hammered out was behind closed doors where very serious people from the State Department presented a spreadsheet of options for Ukraine's renewal of the Democracy Plus DLC and the uki

Ah hell, that predicate applies to every congressperson anybody here has voted for. Let's not pretend like we as a nation suddenly give a shit about integrity, capability, or neutrality.

Thank you for putting it this way. I watched people scam VCs with drone tech, and Theranos, and other things. Can people please do any amount of critical thinking around this sort of stuff? It steals funding from serious efforts and pollute

I highly doubt that the poster did anything other than try and conduct business with the tribe. Thievery is thievery--if it's okay on a small scale now, it must've been fine on a large scale then. At which point, we're just s

This sort of thing should be a good example to point to when people say "Why are there spending cuts coming to public broadcasts and media?".

You'll note that I used the word despot, and not authoritarian. This was not an accident.

The old joke used to go: "A million here, a million there, and pretty soon you're talking real money!" We have since updated it to billion in order to keep pace with the times.

Well, we either have a despot or mob rule--hard to have both. Congress has abdicated its role, and the rot is now so plain that even a 78 year old can get the idiot masses to vote him in to do something. The thing about power...it only stay

I don't think you're reading me in the way that I intended, and I think you're being very uncharitable. I did not claim that their concerns about replacement were well-founded, merely that they were understandable. Again, go
