TUI and Rust surged back in popularity when programmers through frameworks became detached from the actual work and needing to differentiate from all others in the even playing field. It's like turntables to Hipsters. Now with LLMs it

Not sure what's the historical validity for that one source saying it was fraudulent, but this sure reads like anachronism. As someone that tries to defend him being part of selling ballistic missiles to Iran a very short time before i

Where's the part about deceiving in the link? Aren't you conflating Iran-Contra that happened after the revolution?

Not tracking every minute of REM sleep isn't going to change either, the unimportance of the data is not what they are selling though

> I don't get the people that need to wear it 24/7 for days at a time. I think that's kinda expected when the device itself is supposed to give you the illusion it is always there tracking your health (even when sleeping)

I have to say that just like the poster you are replying to, I am inclined to believe what you are saying because of Russia's past actions, and this modus operandi you described being successful elsewhere However, he is right that I wo

I'm not sure how is that related to the original topic. The events I am describing are a decade to two before the ones you are describing. Back in the early 2000s Qatar was already financing Hamas as well as Al Qaeda (including involve

> Hamas has the influence it has because the US wants it to have it I doubt this is backed by US intentions and actions historically > Similarly, Obama supported the Muslim Brotherhood because he did That seems like a tautology to me,

It is a very weak ideological motivation for people who would never enlist in the first place. However, I think people are generally too cynical towards a very real belief system. There are multiple examples of US pushing for democracy agai

That's probably false as you can see historically that ideological armies have far better morale and better effectiveness

Haven't found a lot about it online, other than https://www.polskieradio.pl/395/7786/artykul/3438674,russian... Do you have any references about it? This is very reminiscent of Iranian intelligence modus

That's an interesting theory and I am not saying you are entirely incorrect, but I'd imagine that the vast personnel of cyber-adjacent roles in the US Military have better civilian prospects in tech than a Air Force pilot with an

It's nice it is able to write non-slop in the PR comment when social engineering. Any chance I can ask it to social engineer to get a normal style?

He is right, when a startup becomes successful the hiring pool becomes different. For example, you won't see people who came for politics-sake before real money is on the table. This can kill the culture and make the actual people that

The Prussians nobles were a big reason why the Nazis rose to power and were well integrated to the party and the army. The Prussians losing power is not the reason why Germany changed, but because Germany changed its values (militarism wasn

They have been preparing for 50 years yet lost all their leadership, nuclear facilities, ballistic missile manufacturing ecosystem and air defenses in minutes to days. The US is not doing amazing in this war but no need to give the Iranians

Yes, and the founding belief of corruption is that, "that's the way it works", "everybody does it", "this can never change". That essentialism is exactly the notion the poster I was replying to was echoing

Why? Do you think a country is going to improve if anyone with potential like the OP would move to the West? I haven't suggested someone should wait it out, but the notion that nothing can ever change because it's "culture&qu
