Putler is [most likely] a sociopath. He’s has no morals but he’s not clinically insane. The only thing using nukes would guarantee for him is his own death, which he must certainly be aware of.
…if Russia even has any functioning nukes.
Bringing back Gnutella.
The best thing about MongoDB is that you can stop using it completely and switch to PostgreSQL, which will happily accept all the horrible JSON data you can cram into it.
“…If there’s a problem writing your data, you’re fucked. Does that sound like a good design to you?”
“If that’s what they need to do to get those kick-ass benchmarks, then it’s a great design.”
Oh God. I am laughing so hard watching this.
They couldn’t even keep track of the reactors from the nuclear powered lighthouses in Siberia.
if Russia nuked itself on its own territory.
The fact that it’s Russia substantially increases this possibility.
It’s kind of funny to me that a significant reason Russia is in its current predicament is because of rampant corruption. Putin runs the country like a Mafia state and then gets all surprised Pikachu Face when it becomes apparent that his underlings just stole all the money instead of using it to maintain their weapons stockpile, which is now aging and dilapidated.
You get what you pay for. Paying garbage prices [often] means you’re getting garbage.
Unfortunately, the current penalties are insufficient.
Enemy resolve is such an important and yet tricky factor.
A big part of the reason the US failed in Vietnam, despite having an overwhelming military advantage, was an unwillingness by the US to just burn the whole country to the ground, and the attitude of the NVA and VietCong being that they would either win or die trying. Bombing campaign after bombing campaign didn’t change that.
I doubt the Russians have the same resolve. Especially since they’re the demoralized aggressor at this point. Ukraine has to work very carefully to achieve their strategic objectives without Galvanizing the Russian population. Quitting has to feel like a better option than fighting back.
I’m guessing the strategy is diversion, unless they have specific targets they’re going after. Maybe both. Better get ready to exercise the “Sherman Doctrine” because the Russians are going to try to cut off the supply lines as quickly as possible.
I wear a men’s 14. That’s bad enough.
The cognitive dissonance is so strange to me. I’m a native Cheesehead and it’s a well documented fact that ice fishing season in Wisconsin is quickly getting shorter and shorter due to the higher winter temperatures.
Maybe it’s a branding issue. What if we start referring to “climate change” as “demise of ice fishing” or “imminent collapse of the snowmobile industry”?
This is one advantage Gnutella had/has over torrents. Kind of like a federated content library. Too bad low quality content and malware were such a huge problem.
The hell I can’t.
What is a flap knife clamp?
I had a boss once who liked brag about never taking PTO, as if it were a positive thing. To me that just means your priorities are ass backwards.
Ha! Just need an even bigger tractor.
Joking aside, that’s pretty easy since the basement has an outside access.
Forgot “Pasting it into a Word document”.
