Most universities nowadays have turned into degree mills anyway.
I always stand very far from conspiracy theories and just think that, like living organisms, organisations tend to turn into sentient organisms that just strive to stay alive driven by survival instinct.
That’s the only way I can explain how a handful of people I know get paid to publish papers of no value, who are not going to be read by anybody outside of their tight circle, and they don’t even care about (I hear a lot of “that’s the bullsh#t we gotta do to get paid”s). Most unis where I live behave just like parasite organisms living on top of a host that they try to get the most out of, economically speaking.
The fact that the threshold of decency drops below any reasonable level is just a byproduct of the hosts requiring unis to adapt to their requests (political hires, needlessly overinclusive politics, bar-lowering acceptance criteria), and at this point I don’t expects universities to stand on any ground whatsoever in the name of protecting culture and education.
Devs who pride themselves on their capacity for rational thought seem to forget that regression to the mean applies everywhere...even to the places that they aspire to.
I have a custom bash function named "backup_branch" that does exactly that, along with "restore_backup" and "delete_backups". It's made my life 10x simpler.

subset of C, consisting of 90k lines of code (LoC), which
includes the basic functionalities. All other OS services are
decoupled and can be deployed individually, totaling over 1
million LoC. The HM’s build system can assemble the OS
services based on detailed configurations specified for various

classes or coalescing some OS services.
Absolutely true. Italians love selling the story of how corrupted their country is. Despite it having roots in reality, it's no worse than most other eu countries.
