Giving Ukraine enough weapons to keep fighting, but not enough to win fast is not a very friendly move. This way Ukrainians are bleeding away instead of just winning. A little sacrificial for me. But yeah, alternative of Ukrainians just sur

I love one comparison to hole hawg[0] (used for unix vs windows&mac), which is usable here. Memory safe languages are like a fancy electric drill from target. They get the job done, but if you want some more serious drilling they die on

They could chase it in circles. Prey typically escapes pretty predictably (away from you), so you can chase from side to force some direction. Also if you have group, you can use everyone in group in loose circle.

Good simulations have constant time step and may not run in real time. From inside such simulation, you would never know.
