One of the listed reasons, yes. Other reasons:

  1. Protecting russia-speaking people of Donbass (almost identical reason Hitler gave for invading Austria and Sudetenlands in 1938)

  2. Historical and cultural justifications, Putin claimed Ukraine is not a legitimate state (also an argument used by Hitler in 1938)

  3. To stop "aggression of Ukraine in Luhansk and Donetsk" (Hitler accused Poland of the same in 1939)

  4. Reclaiming rightful territory (Hitler referenced the Treaty of Versailles as reason for his wars)

  5. Claiming that diplomacy failed and that Putin has no choice but to invade (also said by Hitler)

It's almost as if Putin is Hitler reincarnated.

I still remember a short period of time in the first half of 2022 where even the most tankiest of people clearly felt unease from the war Russia started. The sheer evil of it broke through the propaganda they had integested, and for like 3 months they weren't sure if they should support it or not.

But eventually they got around to supporting it somehow. The mind can explain black to be white or perhaps some of them got actual instructions how to communicate. 1968 Czechoslovakia all over again.

I have some american stocks and funds and have seen a pretty weird increases in them. Wondering whether selling all of them would be a good idea right now...

... but then again the rise kept going the last time Trump was president so I dunno.

Also: Trump is not Hitler. Republicans are not the nazi party. I hope this comment doesn't age like milk.

Rust has almost nothing to do with Mozilla these days though.

It's because they did at least one complete rewrite, possibly two. But both of them needed to integrate with the rest of Microsoft, which practically forces them to be crap.

That is the actual reason this happens. Another one is financial people trying to cut costs or something. Slack licensing is not a small cost if you have lots of people.

However it should be said that IT and finance are supposed to support the company, not the other way around. If they're choosing shit services they should be replaced with people who actually support the company.

Dog shit has plenty of good things going for it, frankly. It acts as a fertilizer and really its existence just means that your best bud's internal organs are functioning properly.

Teams however
