This phenomenon cannot be avoided as long as papers can help kids go to universities.
Maybe we can prevent parents from buying papers for their kids (this can be charged based on evidence more easily). But when the parents themselves are professors, it is just difficult to determine whether the credits are assigned appropriately.
Skills that can be accessed and learnt by the majority should be the criteria for university admission.
When I click on the product ratings of some of the PLAs on Google, I am redirected to the landing page. But actually I am supposed to be redirected to a page aggregating the ratings from different sources hosted by Google.
I think Google might be suffering from revenue pressure since navigating users to the advertisers' landing page will let the advertiser pay Google directly. And obviously it will harm the user experience since the ratings are actually aggregated from different sellers and will be incomplete on the landing page while the user wants to see all the ratings and reviews when he clicks on them.
I think one of the reasons should be that Gitlab does not have many enterprise customers in China and Russia. Native Chinese or Russian speakers are not needed for Support.
Russians and Chinese could not care less but gitlab. They have progressed so much in the last years, they have their own gitlab systems. Demonizing Russia and China for bad practices and not doing any introspection on yourself is hypocritical. US suppremacy is over. Get on with it
