The man is utterly shameless in the damage he’s causing. He knows there’s nothing to the vaccine bull shit, but he’s okay with letting 100s or more die to score political points with morons. I don’t know how people like him live with themselves. I couldn’t kill people even for the cause of saving my own son’s life, let alone for a political office | [

“It is impossible to imagine that so many influential individuals came to this view on their own. Rather, it is likely that individuals and companies with an incentive to do so created these perceptions for financial gain,” DeSantis suggested in his petition.
Plenty of "influential individuals" came to this conclusion on their own by looking at the evidence, and relying on the knowledge gained from years of schooling and working in the field of epidemiology.
Decades ago when scientists created a polio vaccine, most of the experts in the fields of public health looked at the trials, looked at the results from the general population and came to the conclusion that it was a good idea to distribute the vaccine. It's no different with the covid vaccines. DeSantis knows this, and as a person attacking lifesaving vaccines to score political points, he is sociopath. | [

"Denounced." Thats a nice word for it.
When I talked to an expert in the field shw didn't bother to address the politics of the situation. Instead, she pulled up a recent study that showed the difference in mortality vs. vaccination. Her only argument was something along the lines of "Everybody in Florida who could have been saved by the vaccine is dead by now." Obviously it was an exaggeration, but I think she made her point. | [

Article isnt clear but i hope he was manipulating shipping fees and then shaving off the top instead of redirecting all shipping fees.

My first programming job in the 1980s was writing code for a distribution system for stocks. There's a bunch of rounding options companies use, and I, as an entry-level person, was writing all the calculation routines. During a staff meeting with the entire team, someone innocently asked what about all the fractional cents that were rounded off if we tracked it? My coworker piped up MRG1957 is supposed to put them in my file, remember?
I had no idea, but I'm sure someone was soon looking at my code. At the time, sufficient controls didn't exist. But you always get caught. | [

Prosecutors in Seattle filed charges this week against a software engineer who is accused of a theft scheme that swiped approximately $300,000 from his employer.
Ermenildo Castro, 28, of Tacoma, allegedly told detectives that he was inspired by the 90’s movie "Office Space" when he devised a plan to divert customer fees from his employer, Zulily.com, into his own bank accounts.
According to court documents, Castro wrote software code that manipulated the online retailer’s checkout page to send the shipping fees into his own account. The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.
Seattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.
According to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.
Castro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.
Zulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.
In an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.
“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.
Seattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie "Office Space," including the plot outline on IMDB.com.
“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial operation into Peter’s account. However[,] Michael commits a mistake in the software on the decimal place and they siphon off over $300,000. The desperate trio tries to fix the problem, return the money and avoid going to prison.”
The King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Castro with two counts of theft in the first degree and one count of identity theft in the first degree | [

Man, he didn't learn much from the movie, the whole decimal point in the wrong place thing. He should have taken a fraction of the shipping fees, not all of it. Spread that shit out so you get $260k over 10 years, not one month. | [

Willing to bet this was a fraction of the "fee" profits, after deducting actual shipping costs.
Reads like the only reason they caught on was he tried to do 2 illegal things at one (also stealing merchandise). | [

The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial operation into Peter’s account. However[,] Michael commits a mistake in the software on the decimal place and they siphon off over $300,000. The desperate trio tries to fix the problem, return the money and avoid going to prison.”\nThe King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Castro with two counts of theft in the first degree and one count of identity theft in the first degree",
">\n\nMan, he didn't learn much from the movie, the whole decimal point in the wrong place thing. He should have taken a fraction of the shipping fees, not all of it. Spread that shit out so you get $260k over 10 years, not one month.",
">\n\nWilling to bet this was a fraction of the \"fee\" profits, after deducting actual shipping costs.\nReads like the only reason they caught on was he tried to do 2 illegal things at one (also stealing merchandise)."

">\n\n\nProsecutors in Seattle filed charges this week against a software engineer who is accused of a theft scheme that swiped approximately $300,000 from his employer.\n\nErmenildo Castro, 28, of Tacoma, allegedly told detectives that he was inspired by the 90’s movie \"Office Space\" when he devised a plan to divert customer fees from his employer, Zulily.com, into his own bank accounts.\nAccording to court documents, Castro wrote software code that manipulated the online retailer’s checkout page to send the shipping fees into his own account. The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial operation into Peter’s account. However[,] Michael commits a mistake in the software on the decimal place and they siphon off over $300,000. The desperate trio tries to fix the problem, return the money and avoid going to prison.”\nThe King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Castro with two counts of theft in the first degree and one count of identity theft in the first degree",

">\n\n\nProsecutors in Seattle filed charges this week against a software engineer who is accused of a theft scheme that swiped approximately $300,000 from his employer.\n\nErmenildo Castro, 28, of Tacoma, allegedly told detectives that he was inspired by the 90’s movie \"Office Space\" when he devised a plan to divert customer fees from his employer, Zulily.com, into his own bank accounts.\nAccording to court documents, Castro wrote software code that manipulated the online retailer’s checkout page to send the shipping fees into his own account. The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial operation into Peter’s account. However[,] Michael commits a mistake in the software on the decimal place and they siphon off over $300,000. The desperate trio tries to fix the problem, return the money and avoid going to prison.”\nThe King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office charged Castro with two counts of theft in the first degree and one count of identity theft in the first degree",

The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states.

The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job.

">\n\n\nProsecutors in Seattle filed charges this week against a software engineer who is accused of a theft scheme that swiped approximately $300,000 from his employer.\n\nErmenildo Castro, 28, of Tacoma, allegedly told detectives that he was inspired by the 90’s movie \"Office Space\" when he devised a plan to divert customer fees from his employer, Zulily.com, into his own bank accounts.\nAccording to court documents, Castro wrote software code that manipulated the online retailer’s checkout page to send the shipping fees into his own account. The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job. His best friends are two software engineers Michael Bolton and Samir Nagheenanajar, that also hate Initech. When he discovers that Michael and Samir will be downsized, they decide to plant a virus in the banking system to embezzle fraction of cents on each financial operation into Peter’s account.

The charges allege Castro netted $260,000 in stolen shipping fees.\nSeattle police detectives said Castro also used his position as a software engineer to manipulate prices on Zulily to purchase approximately $41,000 in merchandise for ‘pennies on the dollar’.\nAccording to police, the company’s cybersecurity staff found a document on Castro’s laptop titled ‘OfficeSpace project’, which outlined Castro’s scheme to ‘cleanup evidence’ by manipulating audit logs and disabling alarm logging. The theft began in February and by March the company had identified discrepancies in the shipping fees being charged to customers, an SPD report states.\nCastro was part of the team assigned to investigate the discrepancies in shipping fees, according to the report.\nZulily investigators eventually caught on to Castro’s scheme and went to his house in Tacoma where they found boxes of merchandise piled up outside the front door and driveway, the report states. In total, Zulily’s team said Castro had sent over 1,000 items sent to his house.\nIn an interview with police, Castro claimed the orders that came to his house were the result of a mistake during a test and he forgot to return the items and did not notify Zulily staff about the orders, the report states.\n“When asked why he never returned the items to Zulily, he said that once they fired him his opinion was, ‘f--- ‘em’,” the police report states.\nSeattle police detectives wrote a narrative explaining how Castro’s alleged scheme related to the movie \"Office Space,\" including the plot outline on IMDB.com.\n“In the Initech office, the insecure Peter Gibbons hates his job.

I was explaining this to someone the other day. Invading and taking territory is the easiest part, but also the most important.
The better your invasion, the better prepared you’ll be for phase 2: occupation.
And in this case the Russians have outright failed to invade and will be doomed occupying any gained territory.
Hell, think historically. The US had one of the best invasion of all time, and even then absolutely struggled to occupy Iraq and arguably failed in Afghanistan. You got to be flawless to pull this off. | [

You are thinking like an American, or a westerner and not like a Russian. Occupation in western terms means we send a army in, and essentially run the country and control the people. IE, Iraq.
The Russian way is you send in a army, kill or move the existing population out (or atleast a majority of it), then replace with your own population. Thats exactly what they did in Crimea, which will make it much harder for Ukraine to re-integrate it into their territory. | [

Probably.. but that will be easier said than done. A lot of Crimea was Pro-Russian in 2014 and have actively collaborated with the Russians. What do you do with all of them? Not talking about a few dozen people, but likely hundreds of thousands..
I have no doubt Ukraine can take Crimea back eventually.. but unlike other parts of Ukraine, I think its going to be a shit show after they do. Also, no chance that Russia willingly gives up Sevastopol either, its the one area I can see them using Nukes to stop the Ukrainians. | [

Auction each parcel of land off to the highest bidder with Ukrainian citizenship, treat the current "landowners" as the refugees they are and offer them the chance to return to Russia proper or get resettled into Ukraine proper
After nearly a decade of Russian occupation, there is zero chance the people there are anything but Russian complicit pawns who would let Russia invade again. Treating them as anything but that is going to be a long term detriment | [
