personally, I'm more of a "idk shit about fuck" kind of gal, but the message still stands
which is why:
1. i never miss an opportunity to shut the fuck up
2. when forced to speak, i preface with “look, idk fuck about shit. that being said…”

Commentary: A new study shows that national security professionals are often overconfident, frequently wrong in their judgments, prone to false positives, and resistant to self-correction.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Sure there are generational differences in the workplace, but one trait that will transcend all ages is cynicism and blatant lack of self regard

Technically a Caesar cipher is military-grade encryption. They don’t mention *which* military
so many companies today use "military grade" as an adjective for random stuff
"military grade encryption" and it's just aes-128

Threat actors should be named after real actors. Yeah sorry you got hacked by Leonardo Dicaprio.
They're a government-aligned group in Vietnam.

I've always thought there has been an overcorrection in international studies/relations/security when it comes to the study of war. It drove me completely bonkers in grad school there was not one class that seriously engaged with tactical, institutional, and political dimensions of armed conflict...
I feel like the left in the US polarized itself into willful ignorance on military policy and entirely ceded the foreign policy of it to the right because the military was viewed as de facto a right-wing tool and all use of military force as imperialistic

Nicotine. Next question.
What’s the simplest non-gun technology you could give the Romans that would still totally reshape the course of global history? I feel like telegraph would do it probably. Maybe steam trains.
This is the truest thing I have ever seen. You cannot imagine how much the Romans would have lost their minds for excel. They literally already started writing our historical chronicles in synchronized columns *by hand*

every Iranian response against the US is "we have launched operation The Mighty Vengeance of God, and also called ahead to make sure nobody gets hurt." this is good and sensible.
