I found it interesting for the purely operational aspect: management ask for analysis without context, doesnt like answer so force better number, bubbles up for months to the top, war is declared on the basis of analysis, all is fucked because analysis was devoid of meaning.
Now, need to fix the shit and Z stands for Nazi, Zelensky is war hero, Chechens dont understand why they were erased even before killing one civilian and there s no way it ends with a win for Russia.
Love it cause even if completely fake, it's probably 100% true :D
Creating a long fake is riskier than a short fake. Making mistakes is a risk, and so the more content the more risk.
As for the “reality” of working as an analyst in FSB it seems pretty accurate. Even if not true, it carries a certain truth.
The general analysis is consistent with what most people I’ve spoken with think. Russia is in a bad spot. They need to turn the narrative on Ukraine (one idea we thought of was a dirty bomb from waste)… I don’t think the content can prove it is authentic or not. Maybe when the author is found an punished we’ll hear about it.
The intelligence war has been amazing. The early game of leaking operational plans was incredible. To say “we have so much access we can burn it with abandon” is a huge flex.
The real time intelligence enabling the Ukrainians to respond precisely has also been incredible. From OSINT analysis to the OSINT crowd sourced collection using geolocation tagged videos and photos. Truly a new operational environment for an army to fight in.
Then all the perception management. Truly remarkable achievement. This will be in the textbooks as a case study, if… you know, we make to a point where we still have textbooks

But this isn't really a long piece. It's very short in actual content, only padded with prose.
And what exactly is the risk anyway? That someone will identify it as Ukrainian disinformation? That's very low stakes, which we know because it has already happened with other bits of "info".
The Kadyrov FSB leak being Ukranian counter information is quite plausible. Maybe they got tipped off by NATO and after neutralizing the chechens, they claimed it was a FSB leak.
What I found interesting was unconditional acceptance of "we did happy result analysis because otherwise we get criticize as always, had we knew it will end with failed conquest we would totally make truthful analysis to save Russia". Totally.
Yeah as a reddit troll myself I enjoy the freedom of never caring and pursuing flaming here... people like me get addicted to the reaction and start writing only to trigger reactions. Here at least I post constructively sometimes.
Though it's pretty weird that I wasn't sure whether you were referencing geohot's (another infamous hacker, mentioned in the article) rap songs at first: https://soundcloud.com/tomcr00se
Not sure why it's a thing for prominent hackers to have aspirations to become soundcloud rappers.
Not with fusion: the fusion reactors we aim at building eventually will have no relationship with our submarine fleet roaming the ocean pointing nukes at everyone.
We disagree it was heinous and believe it's prescribed, thank you. Polanski is a French citizen and will not be given to the US, but if an american is demanded, we ll give him back on the double.
It s what they seem not to explain in movies: we protect our brothers in citizenship against exaggerated foreign conviction, but not foreigners.
No justification for rape, we do not believe the americans are rational and contextualized his crime, and are only perceiving Polanski with an emotional lense, decades after the fact.
I dont care myself, just telling you why we ll never give him as a country. We simply feel different emotions (here doubt in France vs horror in the US). No need to ad hominem me in isolation as if I supported rape. I just know the media portray him as a victim of a 120 years-sentence justice system.
If he raped someone yday, like our ex-future-president DSK did in NYC, by all means, keep him, and we d give him back if he fled. But that also turned out a puritain whitch hunt in the end so it's hard to trust americans with our citizens.
- extremely complex structure, a new token, to get in exchange of eth, to bid on NFTs via various dapps
- the initiator for the "auction" heavily pushes the dao, a future candidate in said auction, on his twitter: it feels like the entire auctioning process is superfluous, why not ask for a set unit price towards a defense budget ?
This smell as bad as the shit Julian spread all over the ecuadorian embassy's walls, if you ask me.
Argue his case well in court ? I mean, I dont disagree wikileaks helped confirm what we all knew about the war, but scamming people via a DAO is a step in a totally unrelated direction. I remind you the DAO is not to bribe his prison guards, which would free him faster, but to buy an NFT, which is literally meaningless.
The problem is whatever he did was illegal in Sweden and the US and borderline in the UK, so with 3 jurisdictions trying to seek justice for 3 different crimes, no amount of pyramid scheme marketing will solve THAT problem. Plus, Ecuador might want to recoup the costs incurred by their disgraceful guest... maybe pay them first, so he gets one less enemy?
Is it really meaningless to buy an NFT that might result in Assange being freed? If anything it would have good resale value if he actually gets free and i would argue much more than ape club NFTs
The offence he is charged for (i think sex without a condom) and the sentence he is serving is a mockery of the justice system. (I will admit i havent researched the details here)
I think he is one of our heroes and we should do our best to get him out of prison.
Yes: the might is the pipe dream. Either you might be rich, might be early, might might might. Why not make a normal website with his lawyers bank accounts ?
Assange can go meet his accusers like anyone else im Sweden, why is he so special ? It s not sex without condom, it's insistence before the act not to use one despite the woman asking, considered rape there.
But democracy existed before whatsapp, why cant it exist after ?
I mean I agree with what you say it s convenient to anonymously communicate private thought over public telecom fibres, but... I mean... democracy and "freedom" as a Nation citizrns are unrelated to this, completely unrelated.
Taking away freedom of speech and freedom of press, just because it's no longer talking to my neighbor on the corner or smashing ink into paper is the issue.
It s like the electricity companies who cant preemptively check usage to cut before it explodes, cant anything be done at the phone provider level to just...cut before the cost is incurred ?
Now, need to fix the shit and Z stands for Nazi, Zelensky is war hero, Chechens dont understand why they were erased even before killing one civilian and there s no way it ends with a win for Russia.
