@randahl it's very easy to prognosticate how to deal with Russia, but if you are wrong, it could lead to millions of dead. Russia could defend its own soil with tactical nukes. Have you gamed out these possibilities? And fear and the fog of war can rapidly escalate in a nuclear battlefield. It's easy to recommend these steps if you don't think the war won't come home to you.

Daniel Marks (profdc9@mastodon.social)'s status on Thursday, 12-Sep-2024 03:42:14 JST Daniel Marks @anderspuck @randahl Perhaps you could address the issue of Russia using tactical nuclear weapons on its own territory to stop an invasion, which was not in progress when fhe video was released. Also, perhaps address the issue of nuclear command and control because NATO may move its own tactical nuclear weapons closer to the front in response to first use, and if battlefield commanders could launch with their own authority which could lead to uncontrolled escalation.

Daniel Marks (profdc9@mastodon.social)'s status on Monday, 03-Jun-2024 04:59:33 JST Daniel Marks @adamconover Google solved a real problem with its search engine. It leveraged this into one of the most fantastically lucrative inventions in history. But it's always been an arms race, and Google is now losing. Similarly, the fediverse could become a victim of its own success if it becomes too valuable of a medium. The fediverse's relative obscurity is working in its favor right now, but the real test of its viability is to come.
