This 👇. The whole point of Wagner being a ‘private military company’ was to create distance between their actions and the Russian state. Here, (in his appeal to end the rift), the dpty head of Russia’s military intel says he’s worked with Wagner since day 1. ICC red carpet.
Hard to understate how insane this is. Rostov has over a million people, Russia's 11th most populated city and a military hub. It's like disgruntled Blackwater vets seizing San Diego against little to no resistance.
@Sneakyness@lemonodor I agree with your point about OTAR too, it's weird and makes me curious about what is actually happening, but hard to speculate based on that one sentence.
@Sneakyness@lemonodor Fwiw, I'm skeptical too but that was just one unsourced line in the article. It's also worth noting that they may not be actually cracking the encryption (i.e. the algo itself) but instead just have e.g. a captured keyed radio to 'decrypt it in real time'
@EvansRyan202 @h8s_twitting @donaldcclarke Is there a review process with subject matter experts? I've disagreed with some other material and viewpoints, similar concerns others mentioned. But specifically w.r.t. AI/ML type articles: they are often completely incoherent or otherwise seriously flawed. Have a nice day too
@maibacherstr@WarOnTheRocks I have some degree of expertise in AI/ML and it really made me question the quality of the other articles I don't have subject matter expertise in. One particular article kept getting reposted but any critique would just be lost on the next repost. Makes any engagement ephemeral
@maibacherstr@WarOnTheRocks I mentioned this in another thread but I basically stopped reading once I noticed them repeatedly promoting some incoherent, dumb, yet confidently written; 'strategic outlook' word salads on artificial intelligence and machine learning. Made me think about their review process...
@h8s_twitting @EvansRyan202@donaldcclarke I have some degree of expertise in AI/ML and it really made me question the quality of the other articles I don't have as much or any subject matter expertise in. There was one particular article that kept getting promoted but any critique would just be lost on the next repost.

@SashoTodorov1@LivFaustDieJung It's also a place for confidently written 'strategic outlooks' on artificial intelligence and machine learning in the near future NatSec / IR / Geopolitics contexts which are often dumb and incoherent speculative science-fiction word salads
@jonathanmaul@billhathaway@SwiftOnSecurity eg. desk one could go up 100-200 ppm from exhalation in general direction and start setting off noti's while another in different area would read below threshold, yet both would consistently rise thoughout the day. clear global pattern vs local differences in multi-configurations
@jonathanmaul@billhathaway@SwiftOnSecurity for sure, was pretty interesting to me to have a sensor in different parts of a room throughout the day -- i would love a comprehensive systematic review or meta analysis on this. I had a low rent raspi + cheaper sensors than tay's but you can absolutely see interesting patterns
@jonathanmaul@billhathaway@SwiftOnSecurity basically, it's cool and probably a good idea to have these monitors but those variables and others can really change the context of the readings you're getting, important to keep in mind
@jonathanmaul@billhathaway@SwiftOnSecurity I've got monitors also and agree. note that there are other variables including altitude, sensor sensitivity/air factors like density and local air flows, room volume/height, and sensor placement relative to ceiling height. would love to see a comprehensive study
@MorozMichael In the absence of encryption i understand why people would resort to ad-hoc coding. why it wasn't encrypted in the first place is the evergreen question when claiming to operate an artillery first doctrine, alleged combined arms, 5th gen jets, and a nuclear deterrent.
