    There is a difference between a person learning and a commercial product learning from someone else’s work, probably ignoring all the licenses.

    This won’t happen under current state of capitalistic systems. No-one will fund this for sole purpose of public good.

    I’m not talking only about this specific tunnel. Norway spends quite a number of their petro dollars to make tunnels in the middle of nowhere to another middle id nowhere.

    Well, maybe you don’t bribe directly by handing money over to an LEO. But I would say there is still tons of corruption that is based on influence, soft skills, knowing right peopl…

    Were we reading the same letter? It’s a sweet and innocent letter, no fear to be seen, not in English translation, nor in original Russian. It seems that you superimpose your own b…
