where are the dumps from north korea. where is kim jong un's private communications with Xi Jinping. Where is Putin's communications with Lukashenko. Where are internal memos from the people's liberation army. Where are the leaks from the Ayatollahs.
Also yes the targets were western governments. What about western corporations? Where are leaks from Boeing about their issues? Where are leaks from Facebook about PTSD of their moderators? Where are the leaks about Peter Thiel or Elon Musk or whatever?
The targets WL chose were basically the "evil west", you know, the only reason Ukraine has not been reduced to a prison complex.
It shouldn't take years of conversations to understand that pedophilia is bad.
Ironically BSD doesn't have "a ruler", a cult-like leader like RMS. It is more democratized than GNU.
This tends to attract an enormous amount of non-education related work like loan servicing companies, bloated school administration, etc. Now schools mission is not just to educate it is to get a piece of that huge loan pie. It creates perverse incentives like universities competing on how fancy their dorms are or whatever meanwhile they are trying to drive down all costs like turning full time professors into part time employees who have to get second jobs to make ends meet. Kids become just loan delivery mechanisms to administration.
What a subsidy would be is just... giving the money directly to the schools. Like is done with high school.
math world - "wouldn't it be great if we had a thing called a field, or even better a group, a bunch of rules everyone agrees on where operations are closed and you can make all these great discoveries and there is so much consistency and predictability..."
computer world - "yes but wouldn't it also be great if we could add binary fractions with rounding...."
in pictures you have a 2d projection of 3d information, with time as optional. animals dont have the same 3d position at the same time so its rare for one to be occluding the other in the projection.
in sound you have to have time, sound without time has basically no meaning. but with one mic its a 1 dimensional signal varying over time, coming from a 3d environment. where creatures easily overlap each other in the time dimension.

One of the main things that Toyota Production System brings to manufacturing is the concept of respect, everything is supposed to be based on respect for each other. Maybe people fall short of that alot of the time, but that is the goal and intrinsic to all their other techinques like genchi genbutsu, kanban, just in time, waste elimination, etc.
yes, this is a huge adjustment for me as old Gen X trying to work with Gen Z / Millenials. I feel like Michael Scott sometimes to be honest... raised in an environment where bigoted jokes, brutal insults, shouting, were the norm and expected, adjusting to being around the new generation which was raised on anti-bullying and therapy. I am glad things are changing, the old ways were very dysfunctional and counterproductive.
Maybe its just the lead poisoning.
much like how i got into linux via linux-on-vfat-on-msdos and wouldnt have gotten into linux otherwise, ollama got me into llama.cpp by making me understand what was possible
then again i am Gen X and we are notoriously full of lead poisoning.
There is never, ever going to be an equivalent case with big tech ("Google V Sullivan") because Google does care what happens to youtube creators, and they are not liable because thanks to section 230 they are not a publisher. Google do not care if any youtuber get sued out of existence by the government or the powerful. Same for Wikipedia, Wikipedia is never going to be involved in a major free speech case because thanks to section 230 they have no legal liability for what others post on their site. Same for Facebook, Twitch, Twitter, all of them. Big Tech media has absolutely zero protections for any of the journalism done on them.
That is why big cases like Weinstein are still done by the NYT and The New Yorker.
No version control, no approval process, no source code repository, no unit or regression testing, no logging, no test vs production environment, no central place where all code/macros are saved, no documentation.
i am baffled. power query / M is taking over the corporate world and its extremely, extremely useful. its one of the most useful things that nobody in open source world has tried to copy (that im aware of).
