    The guy had a friend who admitted to 8 murders and he himself murdered his wife who was the translator for a Russian mail order bride catalogue… Woah. Its hard to believe a person like that could contribute to open source.

      You are discussing on a platform created by a man who praises people like Lenin & Castro. Richard Stallman resigned over some comments on Epstein victims. Free software is like that sometimes.

        Free software is like that sometimes.

        Anything is like that. The inventors of a great many things weren’t good people. Just because people do great things, doesn’t mean they are great people. Nazi doctors found out a lot about the human body by torturing them and/or treating them inhumanely. Probably a lot was discovered during the torture of humans and ignoring human rights (which probably didn’t exist at that time).

        Closed source software isn’t better. It’s run by people who devalue their workers, other humans, and in fact the entire world except people like them.

          Nazi doctors found out a lot about the human body by torturing them and/or treating them inhumanely.

          That is a myth. The documentation left behind by them had little to no scientific rigor, and basically nothing of value was gained from it. The situation was even worse on the Japanese side, where even the visiting nazis thought they were going too far and, again, nothing of value was gained.

          praise revolutionaries

          I think you totally missed the point. I do hope you are joking. Please don’t support mass murder.

          If you aren’t far left then you are far right!

          Also, these leaders have little in common and I don’t know where you got the idea Mussolini is a western hero

            Lenin and Castro are actual heroes, though. Your propagandistic take is just NATO support. For West, Hitler, Netanyahu, Biden, Stepan Bandera are heroes today.

            Also, since you insist…

                Idk, ask west, Biden pumped billions into Israel last week and even threatened ICC openly. All of west is bouncing on Netanyahu’s wiener and cheering Israel. Hitler’s collaborators have monuments in Ukraine and Eastern Europe, and Canada even paid tribute to Nazis in their parliament.

      A person like what? There’s no connecting thread between morality, emotional maturity, and programming skills.

      Who is going to stop them. It’s not like there’s a gatekeeper.
