Oh interesting. No rebut of specific points or facts, just blanket disagreement? I think its hard to call a whole article "correct" or "incorrect." This article makes many assumpti…

It needs to be noted that these drone videos are highly filtered - they are used as fundraising tools by Ukraine Armed Force units and then what "trends" are the spectacular videos…

I see your point and I think you have a reasonable point of view, although I don't share it because I think to have that point of view you have to make assumptions I'm not comforta…

This is an interesting comment and its great to see a source. I just want to add a bit to France's threats to deploy troops to Ukraine for direct conflict. There's a serious case t…

In theory, sure, but those swarm shows are pre-programmed: they aren't reacting dynamically to a (chaotic) situation on the ground and they aren't communicating with operators. The…

I disagree with this other than that Ukraine will definitely lose if its backers stop supporting it. It's not really clear that Russia would surely lose the war of attrition. A rea…

That's partly the point yeah. Every war is an iterative set of actions and mitigations. The point I'm making is that so far the actual effect created by the strikes hasn't come clo…

The attacker in this case is investing significant resources and the defender isn't investing crazy amounts of resources. I see your point but I don't think the hypothetical as sta…

I disagree that failing to hit targets is a significant tactical victory. But I agree that they should continue the strike campaign. They can't do much else on the battlefield righ…

I think the article overstates its premise. The article makes an assumption that Ukraine has out-innovated Russia in terms of drones. That used to be true (in 2022-2023), with Ukra…

Overall oil refineries are decent targets because they are high cost and statically located and therefore difficult to defend, but Ukraine certainly wishes it had more conventional…

I clicked through to the article. I think the title is inaccurate. The paper primarily goes into detail about the Department of Defense heavily investing in startups, incubators an…

Posting from another account (home vs work computer). You can reach me at either. > The US wants to prevent China's rise to global hegemon status. It has no problem with China grow…

Tesla not only looks at these, they coordinate their fixes and disclosure. Tesla runs a bug bounty program https://bugcrowd.com/tesla , contracts with security research companies t…

A psychological test to see how strongly the profile matches human emotional-cognition? Can we call it the Voight-Kampff Test?

Temporary destruction of farmland isn't nearly at the level of a priority as fighting for territorial control of your country. Ukraine has in fact flooded farmland (outside Kiev) a…

Here are reasons I can think of for either side of the conflict to blow the dam up. We need to note that contextually, the dam was blown up at the start of Ukraine's Counter-Offens…

I regret that Hersh's reporting relied on anonymous officials. That's not a dig on Hersh - this is the standard for journalism on these topics. As a standard it creates a deniabili…

I agree with the point about unlimited and undetectable. I think there's nuance to low latency. Here the latency the attacker is limited by the amount of parallelism they can bring…

It's a perspective difference. Each individual user perspective: "It is possible I can shoot myself in the foot, and also possible I will not. It is not correct to say I will shoot…

At this point I can not edit the top comment. I would have edited with something like: "this property is not an implementation bug but a design outcome shared with any deployment o…

mprime1 feel free to use or alter any of the content you agree with to update the documentation for your project.

I disagree with your speculation as to what most cryptographers think. Are you basing this on any data you can share? Please also see the other thread about how this secret storage…

I really do hear what you're saying and think you're making a great point. The part that I think applies is that this is a "data at rest protocol". Communication protocols are assu…
