@Anastasiya Take your debate to US Congress and the NYT (article from two months ago). The fact is that weapon sales to Ukraine were banned until very recently, until Ukrainian deaths became useful to America. Easily verifiable facts. It’s in America’s interests for Ukraine conflict to drag on, which is why we have been sandbagging on Abrams tanks, F-16s, etc. America isn’t trying to save Ukraine, and will not save Ukraine. At least with Afghanistan, we put our own troops on the ground. As Lindsey Graham said recently, this is “free for us”, because it’s only foreigners dying. You’ll need to go browbeat somebody else if you want reassurances that America actually cares about Ukrainian lives.

The problem with getting rid of meetings is that informal communication patterns between key people becomes a form of hierarchy. So people feel out of the loop and want meetings as a way to stay informed.
This is where a culture of documentation and internal communication is key
Long story short: Legendre looked at the repartition of prime numbers, made a conjecture about the asymptotics of the prime-counting function and computed (by hand) an approximation of the leading constant of the asymptotic equivalent.
Appeared to be something close to one, so he gave that fundamental constant his name.
Turns out, it's a bit more than "close" to one.
