Exactly. Treat it like any other submission. If it is well written, clear, works as intended, passes all the tests, then it's good. Who or what wrote it isn't really relevant.

Right. And to be clear, I'm not saying that's a bad thing. Maybe those scientists should have been punished for their part in the atrocities, but making something actually useful from those weapons was a good thing.
They wear out and need to be replaced. Demand was low, AI increased demand, but the manufacturers see it as a bubble and aren't going to massively ramp out output to meet it.
This reminds me of when Germany built new coal plants and there was much hand wringing. In fact they closed more than they opened, and the new ones were designed to fit better into a heavily renewable grid.
Another good reason to invest in solar. The more energy you generate yourself, the less you are beholden to whatever they want to charge you for it.
It's just how they organize it. You wouldn't say NASA is a military organization because its funding is authorized by congress that also authorizes military spending, or because the president is also the Commander in Chief.
Some countries maintain the fig leaf of separate military and civilian space programmes, but that's all it is. For example the Space Shuttle was designed around military payload needs, and regularly used to deploy military satellites.
For decades all the US astronauts were ex military test pilots too, and of course a lot of military rockets/missiles were used in the early days. Most of the rocket tech was derived from Nazi weapons.
They have been letting women fly from the get-go too.
I'm glad Oracle is keeping the async pollution out of Java. Java is more of a business or admin domain language, and less for systems software. You don't really need that for biz/admin coding, and there are ways to still implement for the rare cases.
I guess I'm not working on "typical CRUD apps" then?
Based on your description, no, you are not, other than maybe "data stores". Sounds like systems programming. And it's rare to need such for app-level database access (unless you did something wrong or bad).
other than async and await keywords here and there.
It tends to force the need to parts that have nothing to do with asynchronous programming other than being referenced by parts that do. It pollutes and spreads like prions in a brain.
Elon likes his rocket toys, and thus needs money.
Doesn't Elon's pay depend on Tesla revenue? If for example BYD kicks Tesla's ass, Elon gets lackluster pay.
Java's Mono library is a poor substitute for C#'s async/await keywords
The Async/await stuff is just syntactical bloat for most typical CRUD apps. I suspect it's there to help MS save on cloud costs, rarely helps devs.
Statistics means never having to say you're certain.
