I guess the truth got filtered out with the "pro-empire" propaganda

Judging by videos of Russian officers online, your translation is missing like ten instances of "suka" and "blyat"
Not surprising, since WP is owned by Bezos, who is at the forefront of the new US nazi movement.
Some random CEO got caught in an affair at a Coldplay concert on a kiss cam.

Software engineers, at least in my experience, tend to do things right as much as they can, and then quit when their work gets sabotaged, but they get rehired elsewhere because there are still jobs available, and that's how they become "job hoppers".
I worked in IT for a hospital subcontractor, and I got my team of engineers to cut down time for the main thing we did from a 4 day turnover to one where it could be done in 20 minutes, with much fewer problems and errors as well.
My team got laid off immediately after this, and our new systems canned, as the new CTO would rather outsource the existing error-prone 4 day process to India as he could take credit for that.
What I'm saying is that most of my peers feel our responsibility and try to act on it, but those of my peers that don't tend to have longer tenures and less stressful lives.
it’s how we end up here and now where no one can ever be held accountable for anything.
That's not true. If you want to know what's wrong with most of the products you buy, most of the services you use, most of the economy in general, it's Wall Street and the stock market. That is all there is to it.
I installed e/OS when Google made the button to turn my phone off give me an AI prompt.
As a Western engineer, it's not engineering, it's management culture you have a problem with. Most engineers I meet want to make their product the best they can, but management actively cracks down on and sabotages these efforts for various reasons, none of them having to do with engineers.
They think that making something worse always takes less time and effort, so if you made something that is more than the bare minimum, they think you've wasted their budget.
Also, they don't care about making a good product, they care about their careers, so if someone else had a good idea, they are incentivised to sabotage it because it either draws time and attention away from the things that would get them promoted. If you think that your new thing could make their work easier as well, and your interests are aligned, see my previous point.
Finally, with customer-facing products, there is also the fact that your better solution might make some bullshit monetisation strategy obsolete.
We're alienated as fuck from our work, don't point at us mate.
Did they ask Putin and Kim Jong Un as well?
Oh, I need to turn on sound then
No, it’s not.
This us moving to the left.

If Republican right wing voters and Democratic left wing voters both want to tax millionaires, unionise, public funding for healthcare and education, then that is the policial centre by definition.
And anyone not for these things is a far right radical, including the neolib wing of the DNC.
My point is that despite how it is portrayed everywhere, the US is not in general a right wing conservative country, and neither are the rural areas.
Large majorities favor raising the minimum wage, import limits to protect jobs, increasing spending on social security and Medicare, using federal power to bring down the cost of prescription drugs, expanding federal funding for public schools, making it easier to join a union, increasing infrastructure spending, implementing a millionaires’ tax, and even the notion of a job guarantee.
This is how "opening up to the Republican centrist voters" looks like BTW, not parading Cheney around on a stage.
There is Paks II, a second reactor to the aging Paks complex in Hungary. It was built by the Russians, and predictably it's a mess of budget overruns, rife with corruption, and with the war it seems that the govt will have to still pay the Russians despite them not being able to deliver, since the contract was so intensely in Russia's favour most likely. Nobody really knows, since the contract itself is classified until at least around 2046.
