(ignoring the whole GPL technicalities for a moment)

everything you said kind of a moot point if you casually ignore the license.

would you say "if we ignore copyright law for a moment yadda yadda yadda "? nope

That's the whole point of the GPL, to protect everyone's hard work from the real poachers and those who make excuses for them

tl;dr shittin on the young for being young when youses wasn't half as smart at the same age

this is just another piece on how easy it is to shit on younger people for being young, they don't understand the fooked up jargon that hides the bullshite? what's so wrong about that? If you are going to shit on younger people then i want to hear from your parents what "stoopidity"where you spouting as a teenager and a young adult and check it against today "formal business " an example from the top of my head " here's my contact info" or " feel free to contact me" at the end of a letter or resumè. boomer's parents approve of this and yet here we are

re:"our 'leaders' have been busily creating insane energy and environmental policies,.."

"If Ukraine suceeds, it'll be in a much better position to negotiate any peace.

If it loses, it's going to struggle to try again.

Again this is a policy problem because we've been busily de-industrialising and making manufacturing & heavy engineering much more expensive.

This is again a huge political problem because our 'leaders' have been busily creating insane energy and environmental policies, which means we can't deal with national security threats like these. .."

I’m confused,

who is "we" and "our leaders"?

what are those "insane energy and environmental policies"?

i feel i've read something similar but can't remember, are you affiliated with any policy institution yourself that reflects this position or is it just your own thoughts on the subject?

maybe it was you whom i actually read , it happens “¯\_(ツ)_/¯“ =)

This was a clear and unambiguous threat to his life, what’s not to understand? There’s no other way to read it, have doubts? Do what i did, ask other people around what they think it was.

Never the human’s name responsible attached to Company name

Google this and Other Big Companies names that but never the person/s responsible for controversial many times criminal actions, Your bluster is as effective as making fun of a wall full of graffiti, as if the wall was a real being. I watch This Week In Tech, (TWIT) I’ve seen you and heard youses.clutching them pearls about giant companies yet always yielding to whatever drivel anonymous spokesperson (“don’t blame the messenger excuse has been thoroughly debunked by observing Trump’s interactions with the press) and wondering out loud what can be done,”oh so sad the state of tech” why don’t you begin by attaching more names responsible for the shite you report. From suspicious changes in code to the regular big bro stuff you report.I’ve heard that github can help with some of this, dunno, maybe it an urban legend. regardless you call yourself journalists be one or let someone who will,be.

Who is google? Nobody if you don’t name who’s responsible for that division

Who is google? Nobody if you don’t name who’s responsible for that division. Innit half assed to report on a problem, name the company responsible and not name the person at the end of the bucket?what snark you say? Liabilities? I call BS because I’ve read the rag for years and watch uncle Leo on the twit.tv network so I’m acquainted with at least one of your guys worldview, it seems representative of the whole company and supposedly it doesn’t stand for bullshit yet all you do is call out this giant anonymous CEO shield and not the actual physical person who signed off on whatever. It's as if you don’t know how to break down a big problem into small easier to solve ones? you’re not following,uh? You have ten articles about the behemoth Google but you could have ten articles about ten different managers who messed up at google. Still not following? You got a big mouth and tiny balls start naming names, agur

so what's the big deal? the market will work it out

companies are going to pay up for what their cheating the government and the contractors out off.

Isn't that how the market works? if you do t pay enough you're not gonna get talent to work for you. If you're not offered a raise or a permanent position then maybe it's time to sharpen them skills

At least that's the view for NYC and USA where the government is small for the poor and socialist for the rich and incorporated :)
