The ‘rule’ is that you change temporal references if the facts require it.
In Acer, the expression ‘year’ selects a time slot whose end lie at Speech Time; speech time is paused. Then the new time frame is applied and this is applied slowly until the last time the last time is cut. I joined the company 3 years ago, so I am able to give the same ST (SPE and Report) dates. So I
resigned it three years ago. I need to change the reference word as the second statement does not lie in the same timeframe due to the other ST. ”
Mr. Jones said yesterday that he joined the company three years ago.If the STs of the speech and the report lie within different timeframes, the reference may has to be adjusted.
I joined tech startup JDK back in 2009. “What makes it great for people to work together. I want to find great opportunities. I’m an Indian. ” “In
1993, John Jones said he had joined JDS 3 years before. With JDS gone he said three years behind his back. Before they existed!I joined the company exactly thirty years ago. It should be mentioned to be my name. I

What I write isn’t really revisionism at all, which denotes a (implicitly acceptable) re-interpretation of the accepted (by the writer) account of doctrine.
Your stories are hagiography —literally “writings about saints”, but normally extended to any sort of mythopoetic biography impuding exemplary conduct or powers to the subject. What is the classic example of US history: “George Washington and the cherry tree, invented by Parson Weems for his biography of Washington”?

Asked on March 18, 2021 in Grammar.
As here means because, and it heads the clause As
it is necessary to be free = because to be free is necessary This
clause is qualified by the clause in order to will, which is the complement of the adjective necessary. It expresses what freedom is necessary for.
The entire sentence refers to the Will of Pentecost, which Rousseau talks about just before this. The entire sentence indicates that the Quorum can be made and that the Quora may well accept the right but not the wrong. The people cannot be
free forever but everything is possible when we are free. How can the people be free…and the government have authority at the same time?
Does any one really believe in transparency?

In Shakespeare, date refers to a fixed duration, and is almost always used in a context when the end of the period (usually fixed by death, literal or metaphorical) is alluded to: And
back to Athens shall the lovers wend, With
league whose date till death shall never end. — MND III, 2, WhereI may abide till your date expire. Is my teeming date drunk
up with time? — RII, V, 2 Be
brief, lest that be process of Kindness Last longer
telling than thy birthday date. How will the hell’sdark day be After this night’s
revels and an end At his fearful date
with night’s entertainment and not of a despised
life closed in my breast by some vile forfeit of untimely death.My end is truth’s and beauty’s doom and date. The first, you have to see it before your true end. —Son 14
Summer’s lease has all too short a date. — Son 22
Dateless, likewise, always refers to a period without an end; it means, in effect, eternal, unending The
dateless limit of thy eternal exile — Arms, take your last
embrace…. The doors of breath,
seal with a righteous kiss A dateless bargain to
engrossing death! The maid of Dian’s thisadvantage saw. And his love-kindling fire did quickly
steep In a cold valley-fountain of that
ground; Which borrow’d from this holy fire
of Love A dateless lively heat, still
to endure, — Son 153 — (Not that
still here has the sense forever) “Death’s Dateless Night”, then,
means “Dateless Night’s unending.”- 870614 views

To infer is to extract from a proposition or text, by what we call inference, a sense which is not literally there, which is not explicit.
So, my inferred from the fact that the subjects of OP’s sentences were texts, not persons, that the word OP intended not infer but imply, which means to carry or bear a sense which is not literally there—which is not literally there but implicit.
