yeah i don't understand - they spent a few months building a prototype... do people not understand what a prototype is? This sounds like a nothingburger.

- DaveZale 1y agoYup, that's the job of the folks at Fort Carson: find the flaws in the prototype. I often hear and feel the booms when they are testing. The percussive shocks travel many miles through the shale to under my house.

- zdragnar 1y agoI think btown's sibling comment has it right. It's not even a prototype if it isn't demonstrating some aspect of its core capabilities. Given this line from the article: Despite the early September memo’s scathing critique, Leonel Garciga, Army chief information officer and Chiulli’s supervisor, said in a statement to Reuters that the report was part of a process that helped in “triaging cybersecurity vulnerabilities” and mitigating them. and Other deficiencies highlighted in the memo include the hosting of third-party applications that have not undergone Army security assessments. One application revealed 25 high-severity code vulnerabilities. Three additional applications under review each contain over 200 vulnerabilities requiring assessment, according to the document. it seems like there was a SIGNIFICANT mismatch in expectations between the team delivering the prototype and the people receiving it. Everyone's time was wasted as a result.
