"In operational testing, DOD routinely found mission-critical cyber vulnerabilities in
systems that were under development, yet program officials GAO met with
believed their systems were secure and discounted some test results as
unrealistic. "

For example caphrim007 is number 5 in commits over that period but added 5x as many lines of code as next closest committer. However, the code maybe against a new under-used feature so the actual end-user usage could be low.
It would also be interesting to juxtapose top committers commit graphs against issue assignment and resolution timeline. When does issue triage by top committers wax and wane? Do big commits (new features) overlap with issue assignment/resolution dates? Does high volume issue assignment/resolution follow big commits?
If you stay: After 3 months you should have a good feel for the project. After 6 months you should be able to regularly make small contributions.
After 9 months: Spend 10% of your time documenting the problems you see and the changes that might solve those problems. Spend 10% of your time planning another work project that is unrelated to the main project. Spend 20% of your time honing a skill you want to learn. Spend the remaining 60% doing the work you were hired for.
After a year, if you feel the same way, discuss with mgmt + senior the problems you’ve been documenting and if the changes you suggest are something that should be implemented.
Iterate.
"Judge Fogel’s reasoned that MAI Systems Corp. v. Peak Computer, Inc. and Ticketmaster LLC v. RMG Techs. Inc. indicated that the scraping of a webpage inherently involves the copying of that webpage into a computer’s memory in order to extract the underlying information contained therein. Even though this "copying" is ephemeral and momentary, that it is enough to constitute a "copy" under § 106 of the Copyright Act and therefore infringement.[9] Since Facebook’s Terms of Service prohibit scraping (and thus, Facebook has not given any license to third parties or users to do so), the copying happens without permission."

Or, white-box solutions are to complex for the enterprise to operate.

That's because the routing usually doesn't work!

'In a letter to IEEE Computer, Steven Rakitin expressed cynicism about agile software development, calling it "yet another attempt to undermine the discipline of software engineering" and translating "Working software over comprehensive documentation" as "We want to spend all our time coding. Remember, real programmers don't write documentation."'
This is a good read, with a lot of research, describing a common problem. I will bookmark it, thanks for the share.
If there is no market or government pressure to level-up infrastructure (just optimizing existing network) not sure how $VENDOR will carve out any new revenue.
So yea, you'd probably get better results from some system designed by good teachers that could then be replicated without requiring the talent that produced it on a regular basis.
But I'm sure that same training/workshop would be a much better experience when delivered by the minds that created it than a robot that is just repeating the steps.
When I went to University what I wanted was knowledge-sharing by subject matter experts with a passion for teaching. What I got in most cases was researchers that were reading from a script and essentially ticking the boxes of the course outline.
A well designed 'active learning' session is going to have value to students for the same reason a well designed lecture will, it was created by someone with the ability to teach.
"The Fair Representation Act (HR 3057) gives voters of all backgrounds and all political stripes the power to elect House Members who reflect their views and will work constructively with others in Congress."
What incentive is there to "work constructively with others" in this system?
Would be interested to see a break-down of degree and field. I will posit that majority of H-1Bs are Masters holders in IT field from the same country.
Nevertheless, its interesting to see this flame bait by independent so quickly. Who owns that paper anyways? It has a .co.uk domain?
Burning down the house to prove that there are fire safety issues is the wrong approach.
The system is not totally broken.
If the law is wrong you should be trying to change the law WITHIN the law first. That is happening in all of your examples above.
