If governments are arresting people for writing "harmful code", what about devs who code WEAPONS SYSTEMS?

While reading up on Tornado Cash drama, it occurred to me: if they're arresting devs for writing code which makes financial transactions private (whatever their nature), how about all of the devs who have written code for weapons systems? Terror from the air murders women and children with "guided" missles all day every day, they wouldn't work without extensive coding. Or devs who built all of the spy technology that causes people to constantly fear for their lives in places like Pakistan?

Or what about devs who code bugs into systems like aircraft navigation that result in hundreds of deaths? We never hear about who those people are...

What is a Bitcoin Node

If you've ever wondered what a Bitcoin node is and how it works, this guide will help you understand the basics of nodes, their role in the blockchain network and why they're so important.

By learning how the technology behind Bitcoin works, you can see how it is possible to build a secure, transparent, and decentralized network. Anyone can become a node operator by downloading the software that enables this.

BCH scaling issue verification time and propagation time

Not too long ago I had a beautiful conversation with /u/tl121 about Kaspa and BCH and he wrote:

"However, bitcoin cash has already fixed this problem through eliminating the requirement that a broadcast block must be propagated as a complete block, since nearly all the possible transactions will already be in the receiver’s mempool."

See the following article: https://jtoomim.medium.com/block-propagation-data-from-bitcoin-cashs-stress-test-5b1d7d39a234

https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/wpvfz5/possible_breakthrough_in_scaling_pow/ikofp05

However the article is from 2018. Is this still an issue or has it been fixed, especially both verification time and propagation time? It's seems to me very important because Kaspa seems to have also a solution for scaling. Or even Kadena?
