    The 1C-Rarus system controls gas station and convenience store cash registers among other payment fronts.

    I’m a little bit sorry for these hackers as they needed to understand the code in 1C. Even 1C devs don’t at that point, and are too scared to. These are authors of a genius idea of why not to write a new programming language and use russian names for all commands just to make it more accessible to an average user. Interacting with their products at different points in my life wasn’t that bad, but there were always weird, unexplainable decisions you can’t just rationalize. Like, their cloud solution allowed one to download stuff if you pick one item, but if you pick two this option is lost from the menu - the last I remember from years ago. It’s just puzzling how it even worked, and required a hacking team to make it fall apart, not by itaelf. And there’s some form of a blessing, not a curse, that 1C is crippled. Everyone who ever got to maintain, use their products, could thank them (if it not affected their immediate business). Yet, like with many things I hate in this state, it wasn’t their work to do so. It’s us enabling these shenanigans, staying incompetent, staying happy with that nepotism that allowed for that company to survive when they shouldn’t have. And you can render the same verdict to everything. If there could’ve been a democratic government worth it salt, it could’ve bullied that company into being better, and it could newer started this war in 2014. Disfunctionality is the long word you can put onto the banner and hang over there. 1C is a showcase of why one would want to join the EU.
