Throughout all four years of the full-scale war, Ukrainian soldiers, sergeants, and officers have demonstrated every day that, despite shortages of personnel, weapons, and resources, it is possible to effectively resist a numerically superior enemy if priorities are set correctly. This is the central lesson of this war: the decisive factor is not hardware, money, or technology, but people.
People who, in the most demanding conditions under constant shelling, repel enemy assaults, counterattack, and capture prisoners for exchange. People who, under fire on the battlefield, save the lives of wounded brothers-in-arms. People who work in the rear across dozens of roles so that those in the trenches may have it at least slightly easier. People who make every effort at every level to bring our prisoners home.
Each of them could have fled, hidden, avoided responsibility, or refused to risk life and health. Yet for nearly five years, hundreds of thousands have stood firm. Thanks to these people, their decisions, and selflessness, Ukraine continues to live and fight. That is why Ukraine must remember every day who its greatest asset is and treat these people accordingly.
The entire Azov system, from personnel training and operational planning to the provision of timely medical care for the wounded and the extensive infrastructure surrounding the unit, is built on this principle: the life and health of our personnel are our highest priority and greatest value. Comprehensive professional development, continuous training, and the establishment of clear internal processes designed to simplify service rather than create additional burdens have always received maximum attention in Azov. The unit’s success on the battlefield confirms that this course is the right one.
Only a unit in which commanders at every level see their subordinates not as a resource for personal career advancement but as people for whom they bear responsibility, whom they must train, support, and properly equip, can be effective in combat, continue to develop, and serve as an example to others. This is what Azov was before the start of the full-scale invasion, and this is what it remains today. I am proud that the officers of all brigades of the First Corps Azov of the National Guard of Ukraine share this vision.
Today, we must unite around a shared purpose, constantly learn from one another, and remain flexible enough to adapt quickly to the evolving conditions of war. Otherwise, there will be no Ukraine. The enemy understands that division among Ukrainians is its only chance to realize its plans and occupy our state, and it is doing everything possible to split us. Preventing that division and carrying out our duties with integrity, guided by our values and priorities, is what we must focus on today.

Dante's Inferno treats neutrality just as harshly as actual sin.
People who took no side in life, the "uncommitted," land in the Vestibule of Hell. Since they fought under no flag, their punishment is to chase a meaningless, blank banner for eternity. This is the contrapasso that corresponds to their actions.
For sitting out the spiritual war (choosing neither good nor evil), Dante considers them people who "were never alive."
He has them chased and stung by hornets, while maggots on the ground feed on the blood. In other words, for refusing to risk shedding blood in life, the blood now spilled for their efforts is wasted in the dirt. The maggots evoke death, for these are people who never lived.
Dante, who was exiled for his own political life, saw wealthy families of Florence opt out of important issues because they had too much wealth and comfort to lose. Dante doesn't even give them the courtesy of mentioning them by name — the uncommitted are all nameless.
There is no neutrality in moral matters. If you stand for nothing, nothing is what you'll become.

@drlorenzmeier @SpaceX The real scaling challenge is avoiding “Game of Thrones” before the product exists. Once politics start early, no process will save you.

It is funny that every engineering org has the same scale up challenges: too complicated requirements, optimization too early. We ended up with a very similar approach to @SpaceX

Every damaged power station becomes a monument to our cowardice. We could have helped Ukrainians more to push Russia back, but we didn’t. We must.

Russia's attacks on civilian infrastructure are meant to create chaos and fear and make ordinary people suffer. But Ukraine stands strong, and its people will not be broken. NATO stands with you — @SecGenNATO visits Ukraine 🇺🇦
