Tell this to the Académie Française.
Sometimes thought leaders make mistakes ;-)
Publishing screenshots and the README on GitHub but not the code is sneaky at best, deceiving at worst.
AFAIU this particular chain is not compromised.
Anyway.
CCB is overtly a marketing organization, not an IT security one.
IIRC they don't even host their own website, The Chancellery of the Prime Minister does it for them.
Dark day for Drupal and Wordpress, heh
Is it a out MTA-STS or something else?
I don't get this "voting every 4-6 years" story in most past of the world. This leads either to the political apathy or to the riots, like it is now in France and in Belgium.
We have to have a habit of voting in order to be efficient at it. For the same reason, my spam filters are relaxed and every day I read a few spam messages that slip though, to stay alert of what the spam is, and how it changes over time.
I think art is different from the rest in that it lost utilitarian value. In other words, Art is degenerative by definition.

Being a humble rank-and-file programmer I did produce pieces of code that I will be proud forever as well, e.g. this snippet to control the length of $PWD in bash that I still use almost unchanged 25 years later:
# How many characters of the $PWD should be kept
local pwdmaxlen=30
# Indicator that there has been directory truncation:
#trunc_symbol="<"
local trunc_symbol="..."
if [ ${#PWD} -gt $pwdmaxlen ]
then
local pwdoffset=$(( ${#PWD} - $pwdmaxlen ))
newPWD="${trunc_symbol}${PWD:$pwdoffset:$pwdmaxlen}"
else
newPWD=${PWD}
fiI was taght in school that the reparations the Germany had to pay to the winers of WW1 were the cause of WW2.
Proof: Marshall plan after WW2.
Defeat of Germany in WWII was followed by Marshall plan exactly to avoid the ressentiment that nourished the Nazis.

That's a dubious claim. Nothing that we know for sure. I've seen him hinting at that and at the danger to his family in interviews, but who takes his word for it?
Not Russian either but also spent a lot of time out east.
Putin declared the war as a means of personal survival. The negotiations are possible only if he gets out of the way, and then, it's really important to make a Marshall plan for Russia because indeed lots of reputational damage has to be repaired by the "winners" in the Cold War.
Russia is about 28 times larger than Ukraine and 10x GDP.
