<p>I agree, personally as a CS Student, I gave contributing to open source a shot and I felt like it really helped me a lot. Joining a project's slack, chatting with maintainers, developing features with docs and tests and code reviewing really makes you feel like you're an actual software engineer. It gave me quite the confidence boost that I can do this after years of internship rejections and never knowing what I was doing wrong.<p>I'd recommend it for someone/student who feels like their technically competent but never got the chance to work with an already built codebase and a team because it really puts you up to the test.</p>

<p>You are right, it was ignorant of me to generalize and phrase it that way. I apologize for this. In hindsight what I was trying to say was: As a current day muslim, what I <i>think</i> based on my core Islamic knowledge & history is that their reason of doing it would be because of said islamic belief which they <i>should</i> have been following specifically since they were converting the churches to mosques.</p>

<p>To be clear, yes there are alot of different sects in Islam but in Islam there is one core thing that no matter what, it never changes and that is the Quran (Islam holy book). How its preserved is an entirely different topic but its a book which all Muslims no matter the sect should follow clearly.<p>Islam sects came to be from different interpretations of certain verses by certain scholars but some verses/core messages are <i>very</i> explicit that there is no question about it, its what would put you under the umbrella of "Islam", some which include idolatry and that its absolutely prohibited and that statues have no power and they wont grant you any blessings nor protection. This is what I was referring to when I say we.<p>Of course some people will still go out of their way to say no or might very clearly misunderstood or be quite misguided because they were illiterate which would lead to believing many such superstitions but it would be quite a stretch to say thats all Islam where its clearly isnt</p>

<p>Certainly yes, but its not historic if it was done in their time is it? I mean Islam has been around for 1400 years, this could have been done ages ago when the church was relatively new - also I believe most of those churches were converted to mosques (Muslim prayer place) which would justify some re-configuration for their usage. This is taking into account that this was their land/property, anything else would be going out of line, exceptions could be made of course for how offensive something is.</p>

<p>As a Muslim, I can confirm we only do it because we reject idol worship and the visual depiction of any living being, particularly prophets. We dont believe in any power being present in statues. Just wanted to let you know :)</p>

<p>Probably one benefit is having flights available and running 24/7, human pilots can only fly so many a day</p>

<p>I think pirating is a serious issue in other countries (i.e mine), I practically never saw anyone actually pay for any office suite, adobe software and some offline games. All of them get pirated and very quickly too.</p>
