I wonder what the pi foundation's stance is on using their product geared towards teaching ( https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/ https://www.raspberrypi.org/about/ ) to create military applications.

- Mountain_Skies 5y agoProbably the same as their stance on using Pis for retro gaming, media players, and magic mirrors. Just because much of western academia has a deep hatred for all things military related doesn't mean that anything created for use in education is fundamentally at odds with use in the military. As shocking as it might seem, the military actually does a lot of teaching.
- numpad0 5y agoTechnical advancement in civilian space is surpassing military, so military worldwide has no choice but to adopt civilian offerings in 21st century. The argument that civilian technologies shouldn’t be used to accelerate military development assumes military is way ahead. This is no longer the case and a new thinking is needed. (OT & mini Ask HN: I was told this from a right-leaning friend, who I suspect was just replaying a lecture or an essay. And basically I am too, shamefully. Have anyone heard a similar blurb somewhere?)
