- jandrewrogers 1y agoThere are bits and pieces that are quite sophisticated but a lot of DoD software is impressively awful.
- dogman144 1y agoThat should be the takeaway, paired with if you ever make a startup avoid “military grade” marketing as you’ll eventually sell to a vet who thinks it’s quite humorous. The other takeaway is tech used to target insurgents is now getting American citizen data.
- insane_dreamer 1y agoThat last part I understood already (and have never been a fan of Palantir for that reason, well, that and that I don't very much like companies that profit from making products that kill people). So maybe I should have said "new takeaway".
