    I can think of two unofficial reasons: 1. Keep their skills up. 2. Avoid waste of available resources.

    No. The Iraq War did not pose a risk to the US.

    You and I both know the goal of that was to get Hirohito to surrender and that Japan lost most of it strike capability. If strike capability is present, it's a priority.

    You aren't hitting cities with nukes, you are hitting launch sites, command centers, AFBs, naval facilities, carrier battle groups, etc. Sure, in all out war, you will hit a few ma…

    Then the article is likely talking about anti-ship missiles (AShMs). Every "real" country can overwhelm a naval battle group of any other "real" country with guided missiles. A lot…

    It holds and China only has 300 nukes, which isn't even close to the US and Russian numbers, which both have more experience handling them. Bait-y headline.

    Can you elaborate on this please, or link me? I am genuinely interested - do they build their own servers or something? I know they lay down their own network cables.

    I get the point, but you could also argue that big companies want people who are strong on fundamentals and consider them something you shouldn't forget. As in, the army won't hire…

    I don't mean to get into the weeds here, but what part of EODAS can't be added by literally putting a thermal camera (from the F-35 program) in several places on the F-22 and runni…

    Oh, the other argument for the JSF is that it could be exported to allies, whereas the F-22 is US-only.

    Stealth Blackhawks (pretty much confirmed by the Bin Laden raid) are definitely an example of the cancelled Comanche program tech going into black projects.

    >but nothing like the capability the JSF brings in computing technology. What computing technology can't be put into the F-22? Iirc it has a much bigger radar housing, and EO DAS (…

    "unless I murder myself with study and ignore my family" I think this is completely true as well. To move past senior developer, you fall into one of these camps: 1. Very bright. 2…

    Some other questions, and a purely subjective ones at that: 1. Do you feel software or law is harder / more stressful? 2. Do you feel that devs or lawyers are "smarter" on average?…
