Optical wires or inertial is already viable for this kind of mission.
But in truth, it’s probable that the whole thing is a ruse to get Russia to pull back AA to protect Moscow and exploit that advantage elsewhere.


Weren’t they always?
When I grew up, the surgeon’s kid had an Xbox, the software engineer’s kid had a PS, and everyone else pirated PC games or got them from the bargain bin.
I got the whole Blitzkrieg Anthology for the equivalent of 5 EUR
Because it’s cheaper to buy a commodity chip and program it rather than get an application specific chip made.


Great read, I rarely find an opinion article that has substance and is not just random drivel and ragebait.
Thanks for sharing


Yeah but NPC game logic is not that deep in the engine level, it doesn’t take much to reimplement on Unreal.


A RAM pricing crisis they created through OPENAI, no less.
That’s not what I said
From one perspective, but for EU workers, if we spend that money here, it creates jobs here.
I’m seeing defence startups get funded left and right, in some professions, they are the only ones hiring right now.
Could we spend that money better? Maybe. But it’s still marginally better to spend my taxes this way, and also the Russians have threatened to nuke my home twice, so it gives me some peace of mind that we have some more deterrence.
The sticks were digitally driven for quite a while as well. Managed to short circuit a 2004 VW Passat’s electronics, the sticks started to point in random directions all over the place while the car was in motion. And I don’t mean shaking, just going to a random value and settling on it every 1.5 seconds.
Was very spooky.
Still better than giving it to the US MIC


Job creation at its finest
He was in government for 20 (16+4 before) and stole for longer than that.


SPAs were a mistake.


I actually did an experiment on doing just that. For context, I’m an experienced software engineer, whose company buys him a tom of Claude usage so I had time to test out what it can actually do and I feel like I’m capable of judging where it’s good and where it falls short at.
How Claude Code works is that there are actually multiple models involved, one for doign the coding, one “reasoning” model to keep the chain of thought and the context going, and a bunch of small specialized ones for odd jobs around the thing.
The thing that doesn’t work yet is that the big reasoning model has to still be big, otherwise it will hallucinate frequently enough to break the workflow. If you could get one of the big models to run locally, you’d be there. However, with recent advances in quantization and MoE models, it’s actually getting nearer fast enough that I would expect it to be generally available in a year or two.
Today the best I could do was a tool that could take 150 gigs of RAM, 24 gigs of VRAM and AMD’s top of the line card to take 30 minutes what takes Claude Code 1-2. But surprisingly, the output of the model was not bad at all.
Putin gives zero fucks about Iranian children, he was perfectly fine killing Russian civilians to get into power.
Shaheds on the other hand…
Not Cyrillic, it says “és a szapora szobanövény"


Standard TLS, I think, but what else would you need?


They can ban payments from the EU to Pornhub
Are not all ORMs like that? I only used ActiveRecord before fucking off from backend 10 years ago
