- Mar00n 9y agoHe tends to behave like your average 4Chan user rather than a higher-up in a defense contractor. I think he's going to learn that dealing with people in the defense industry is a lot different than appealing to your average video game obsessed teenager. With this being mostly Palantir + Luckey, I can see them reigning him in a bit more than Facebook did.

- bm1362 9y agoI wonder if some type of 360 camera on humvees could be trained to detect incoming fire and display the direction/location to soldiers on the ground? I'm unsure if these types of systems exist, but after watching Restrepo it seems like figuring out where the enemy is located was half the battle. In a combat situation with incoming fire, having a CV system tracking incoming rounds and combatants might be useful.
