It is pretty hard to move out of any cloud . If your workload is just Compute or stateless with commodity or standardized API interfaces you could maybe do a move maybe. Even for those it is fraught with problems and takes a lot of time , t

That is not true for Caltrain . Caltrain tracks and right of way was purchased in 1991 from Southern Pacific (now Union Pacific) by Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board which is basically Muni, SamTrans and VTA for most of the route. Here

Remote does not mean just sitting in a room far away. It could be simply one truck with a lead driver and few automated ones following it closely. Road trains are an option. Even just two autonomous trailers to a lead truck will reduce the

Everything was part of the army back then , that is the point. Department of war was the “army” yes , but army is not what we think of army today, it literally included the entire air force - which wasn’t small auxiliary unit : both wars us

Conventional RPG warheads still cost money, a lot of money if you want them to reliably explode. Javelin has a warhead capacity of 9Kg, for the same bang so to speak ( armor penetration) you would need drones that can hoist 9Kg, those don&

Microsoft can sell and host GPT with their own terms , so this was just PR from day one . More likely they are anticipating public news about military usage sooner than later and removing this to Mitigate the pr damage .

Civilian transponders would give away the position of the craft to smugglers and others trying to evade the coast guard. I would expect they would have the ability to switch off their transponders at minimum for missions.
