Companies these days do what is right for their shareholders and if Claude makes money, or appears to make money, then the shareholders are happy.
You are supposed to eat the pie, not have someone rub it all over your bits, but you do you, friend. Far be it from me to kink-shame.
Who votes for the Supreme Leaders of North Korea? The prime minister?
Japan seems to be having more success: https://www.futura-sciences.com/en/this-new-japanese-weapon-can-neutralize-the-fastest-machine-ever-created_17488/
Still, the technical challenges are exactly the same. While I can't find many more details, it being ship mounted is a significant step forward and it seems to imply that some of the more serious issues have been solved. (A demonstration is just a demonstration and anything other than it being able to hit a target ship is just speculation.)
A response that is actually in context: Considering how expensive it is to build a fab for a component as critical and delicate as RAM, there is incentive to perform proper QA for products released under the original brand. Having a fab fail because of reputation is not likely an option. Rebranding wouldn't help as modules can be de-capped and the source vendor could still be identified.
The success or failure of this vendor is going to be how well they physically control their bottom tier bins and ensure that any waste product doesn't get funneled back into the supply chain. With China specifically, it seems the incentives are much higher for that behavior. Again, if you doubt that, I can point you in the direction of thousands of bunk components.
As with any company that is state owned or state backed, the potential security risk is much higher. I am not just pointing directly at one country in this case. Some governments may pose higher risks than others though. (From a security perspective, you would want trojaned components to be as reliable as possible, TBH.)
Unless there is strict 3rd party (out of country) quality control or there is financial motivation for proper QA, Chinese electronics are usually trash. The market is flooded with cheap Chinese silicon fakes, which has caused significant price increases to verify legitimate parts. If its not "original" pirated silicon that is the issue, it's filed off package marking with a shitty re-badge.
You can keep barking that nationalist bullshit, but it doesn't change the fact that I have to rebuild any equipment that I need at a slight discount and don't want it to kill me because of a 2 cent savings on a missing ground.
Unlike you, I don't give a flying fuck about talking shit about another country. It's the electronics that matter to me, and if you haven't seen the absolute shit show that is Alibaba, you have your head so deep in the sand you are never going to experience that sweet smell of burning, pirated XT-60 connectors.
I have delt with so many fake parts smuggled into legit supply chains it would make your head spin. This isn't a "buyer beware" issue: it's complete lack of respect for anyone else further down the supply chain.
At least stay on-point if you are trying to defend something, FFS.
The art of war is extremely complex and there is no way to cover everything in one Lemmy comment.
However, I can summarize: An attacker or defender simply needs to prevent the opposing side from being able to support a war.
While there are thousands of different things that can support war, it usually boils down to raw manpower, food/supplies, weapons, energy, logistics and communications. Failing to defend, or not having the capability to replenish/repair those things is usually a quick game-over as those items are highly dependent on the other. Anything that supports those key items is a target of the enemy, so those are the things that are stockpiled, fortified or should be rebuilt quickly.
There are some fairly beast defense lines just past Pokrovsk the Ukraine has had plenty of time to build. Hopefully it works as advertised.
Both Russia and Iran build the drones, even if Russia is building the majority now. (I would speculate that the Iranian versions are much better quality.)
000, 666 and 900-999 are invalid area numbers and any digit group of all zeros is also invalid. Thanks for playing!
From the research papers I have read, psychedelics introduce a degree of neuroplasticity that allows psychotherapy to more effective. (I cannot speak to what types of psychotherapy would be more effective than another as I do not know or understand the differences.)
I attribute my use of psychedelics to helping me through my alcohol addiction. While it wasn't guided therapy, it was still very controlled and allowed me to "rewrite" how I interpreted feelings and how I handled a variety of different situations. My hallucinations allowed my feelings to become more tangible and physical. I felt I had the opportunity to think differently about difficult parts of my life.
I suspect proper guidance is similar to what I did to myself: Have a person describe situations and the therapist proposes different ways to interpret those situations. The brain is able to physically form new pathways and sidestep old behaviors.
