</div>Hasn't really changed.. the main orgs are completely dysfunctional<br>
and, somehow, still fundraising. There's no need to have "the best<br>
team" or "the best hackers" in non-profits, because philanthropists<br>
dump money for different reasons.. it's also why there's 100s of<br>
cancer orgs that do the same thing. Reminds me of that definition of<br>
insanity.<br>
