The summary beat you to it. ltr

Were they invaluable? Now they are zero.

It's called Stack Ranking and it causes problems when people need to cooperate (like on programming teams), because people won't cooperate, they'll backstab each other. It's entirely counterproductive.

It works ok on sales teams when salespeople operate independently of each other. (ie, the more they work together, the less it works).

LOL no doubt that will hold up in court. The law doesn't say it has to be defined with the authority of the copyright owner.

MAGAs started opposing Ukraine because they wanted Biden to look bad. It's definitely a case of motivated reasoning (to the extent that there is any logic at all).

I'll never understand why people choose to admire the Nazis: the biggest losers of all history (in the sense that they lost the biggest conflict in history).

He wasn't. Hitler liked Beethoven. Wagner was just the German nationalist composer (whereas Beethoven was Flemish, a fact conveniently ignored).

Dmitry Utkin admired Nazi Germany and that's why he used the name "Wagner."

Wagner was a raging anti-jew. He wrote pages and pages about why he hated Jewish music (mostly because Mendelssohn was better than him).

The code isn't complex. You could audit it in half an hour, and run it on the command line or whatever.
