I got pretty fed up with learning got from the internet when I had too (about 8 years ago).
Every resource I could find was written in a way that only people that already knew could really understand.
Now, that I finally feel good enough, that I can rely on what I know and finally in position to mentor others, I made what I feel was missing, a set of sandbox git repository challenges, with only real life examples [1] I met in professional repos.
I hope the dark age of git education passes soon (and is already fading).

This is basically what happens in real life too. There are people that cannot buy food because "they violated community standards". This Libra thing is totally aligned with the world!

Actual democracy was never this system's cup of tea anyway
I find this social behavior amazing. And I'm very surprised that humans are capable of it. This is a behavior often recognised in animals that are in captivity.
Personal experience is with some finches. Finches refuse to hatch their fertilised eggs by breaking them, if they were forced to mate in a cage. I was a breeder for a brief while.
This looks pretty useful. I love these packages that seem like forgotten stdlib features.
What's the business model of it anyway?
Is it providing you good search results?
I'm always surprised with how much people get surprised about google spying on them.
Or about google ignoring privacy options in platforms they own (chrome, android).
Given a huge network (or multiple) this thing can do wonders on continuous network auditing.
Yet, there should be some security switches, such as complete agent uninstalling, really secure communications with CnC (paranoid mode and above), and no persistent backdoors. Those things can introduce new vulns to the network.
After all, it is only meant to automate the classic identify-> try exploit loop. Good for me.
There is a Greek movie based on the exact same idea. Its the "Alps" by George Lanthimos (later known from "Dogtooth" movie).
I don't about Japan, but that movie had a quite depressing ending (not to mention that the whole thing was kinda creepy and unsettling).
Our savior, save as from bloated package management,
API inconsistencies and
Server-side Javascript.
Thank you!
Now this is a "First world problem"...
