I live in Norway, that is one of the many European countries that have a national eID system, and it's one of these things that might not make much sense if you haven't lived somewhere where its there. But if you've used to i

I've never seen anything like that in any Norwegian newspaper, and I would expect some of them to try if they thought they could get away with it. But I don't think they would at least not if the retoric coming out of Datatilsynet

I had a look at demonstration video for easi-breathe, I guess it might be useful for some people. But for me it looked most like a solution in search of a problem, and I would probably be livid if someone forced those one me. You seem to be

This is not just great news for a Finland, but also for my own Norway, and the rest of Scandinavia. Even before this was finalized there was already work on closer cooperation and integration between our air forces. Give it some time and we

This article is from June last year. Has anything happened since then on this? Is anyone bringing legal actions against Copilot and Github? If not why not? I would think that if there was a case against it, that there are open source aff

I believe I've seen a setting to setup a pin code to drive on my Model 3. You can also unlock the car with the cards that came with it instead of setting up the app on your phone and using Bluetooth. It would be a bit clunky, but it wo

You are right that on the economically side the reporting and research, indicates that there is no measurable difference on economical performance between before and after law. But before the law was introduced there was worry that an influ

That's unfortunate, we've had a similar law on the books here in Norway since 2006. There where some noise about it at the beginning. But the consensus now seem to be that it is a positive.

I didn't introduce the 10x figure. But if you look at GDP, 10x seems about right. GDP is often used to compare countries, and that the size, and quality of the army you can field is based on GDP of the country, seems somewhat reasonabl

Fair enough, I was thinking more of a classic win by defeating the Russian army on the battlefield. But the kind of loss the USSR had in Afghanistan might be possible without much if any help from abroad.

That's not surprising at all. American forces had a very bad experience with reporters that reported damning stories about them in Vietnam. In Iraq and Afghanistan they took actions to make that kind of reporting hard, and the reportin

Belorussia attacking a NATO country ends at best in it being occupied by NATO, at worst in the same war between NATO and Russia that Putin don't want in the first place.
