It's also a possibility that Hersh has been a victim of a bullshitter.

The main problem with Hersh's claims is why the US/Norway would keep one of the two new NS2 lines intact? That line alone is big enough to meet Germany's domestic demands and according to Nord Stream AG one of the other lines

Apple (and Nvidia) can afford to pay to be first in line for the latest TSMC process. But that alone doesn't explain why Apple's 2.5 year old mid-range offering is faster than the latest and greatest from Samsung.

There are off-the-shelf drone radio links that can reach 200 km. However according to the Ukrainians the Russians have been able to jam everything else than modern satellite communication.

Europe couldn't even stop Little Russia (Serbia) from genociding Bonsian Muslims and Kosovo-Albanians until the US-led NATO intervention had to put a stop to it twice. Also Norway can replace a lot of the Russian gas supplies.

From my experience European techies are one of the most pro-Ukrainian and anti-Putin/Russia demographics in the world right now so that shouldn't be surprising.

The EU has asked Twitter and Facebook to not allow direct linking to Russian state media. However I can still access TASS, Russia Today, and all other Russian state media. The US has no such censorship against Russian media.

A person who dislikes Turkish ultra-nationalists and fear what fake news might make them do to refugees is not exactly an "erdobot".

At any other time this would have been more proof that Erdogan is blatantly authoritarian. However right now there is a lot of insidious fake news and disinfo on Turkish twitter. Many newly created bot accounts are pushing lies about Ukrain

I think companies that do actual life/death safety critical software should hire dedicated software people instead of relying on closed-source proprietary visual programming tools for mechanical engineers.

A lot of robotics projects like this are done by people who only have a background in mechanical engineering. This team seems to have dedicated software people so they can use ROS (Python/C++). However it's common in robotics to j

AJ Kalam's 2020 visions for India were inspired by his 1997 visit to Malaysia. He wanted India in 2020 to be on par with 1997's Malaysia. Not exactly a "first world superpower". Today India's GDP per capita is rough
