It is interesting-borderline-revelation when you find that what you were "feeling", "sensing", "fearing" and "thinking might be true" is actually true and is explained in great detail by somebody who actually knows what they are talking about. youtube.com/watch?v=GhA1yo…

@200HappyLife @JulianRoepcke I think China will simply buy more oil from Russia. I do not think that all other alternatives are ... worth the effort.

@JulianRoepcke China mehrere Möglichkeiten: - Einen Chinesischen Tanker als Testballon schicken - Mehr russiches Öl und Gas (evtl. mit Chinesicher Flotte eskortiert) - Rare Earth Export Stopp 2.0 - Taiwan Blockade oder einfach erstmal NICHTS tun. China hat Zeit und besonders GEDULD.

@schwurbeli123 @JulianRoepcke Ich kann mir vorstellen, wenn Trump China blockiert,das die halt sauer werden, die brauchen ja auch den Handel. Bisher gewährt der Iran Cina die Durchfahrt.

@schwurbeli123 @JulianRoepcke Why would China do anything? China will just buy more oil from Russia. It is not like Russia does not have much to sell due to all the sanctions on its fleet.

@imetatronink The problem is not the "objective" anti-ship capability of Iran, but the force multiplier that air/land/navy members of Iran are willing to risk their lives for the hit on the US Navy assets. It is very hard to stop an individual suicide bomber, let alone hundreds with boats!

🩸 Blood Will Be Shed As certain to fail as it may be, it appears the US is determined to attempt to insert ground forces into Iran. And given how obsessed Trump is with market movements, it seems likely they will time this ground assault to coincide with the upcoming 3-day market closure, which begins later today at 1600 EDT — so almost midnight Tehran time. What exactly the mission of these elite American ground forces will be remains a mystery. But there are only a few plausible alternatives: 🩸 an amphibious / airborne insertion in the vicinity of Chabahar on Iran's far southern coast 🩸 an assault launched from Kurdistan in the far north 🩸 an assault launched from Kuwait, possibly with the aim of seizing Kharg Island All three options are, in my estimation, nucking futs; absolutely doomed to failure; very possibly the most catastrophic American military operation since Burnside's disaster at Fredericksburg in 1862 and Grant's blood bath at Cold Harbor in 1864. Although I am not aware of any definitive intelligence on force disposition, my sense is that the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit embarked on the USS Tripoli would be assigned to assault Chabahar; the 82nd Airborne would launch from Kuwait, and various special forces units will join with Kurdish allies to launch from Kurdistan. An attempted seizure of Kharg Island is the stupidest of the three potential objectives, and probably the least likely. Chabahar entails the second greatest potential for disaster — not only will the Tripoli and its escorts be susceptible to anti-ship attacks, but once the Marines are deposited ashore, safely extracting them will prove exceedingly problematic. At least an attack in Kurdistan has the virtue of retaining practicable avenues of retreat. If a Marine assault in Chabahar is planned, then the USS Tripoli must already be in position, which means it is, as we speak, within relatively easy range of Iranian anti-ship missiles. Also, if Chabahar is the target, then we should assume the USS Fraidy Abe and its destroyers will have mustered the courage to venture much closer to the Iranian coast than they have been over the past month — meaning more targets for Iranian anti-ship missiles. Anyway, the whole thing is crazy. And it won't surprise me if this "ground invasion" plan is called off at the last minute. But then, I resisted for a long time believing the US would even launch this war against Iran in the first place. So, I am undoubtedly once again underestimating how stupid the people commanding this continuing debacle really are. This is the bottom line: if the US actually does this extraordinarily stupid thing, a lot of American blood will be shed on the soil of Iran.

I am the CEO of a $6.7 billion fintech company. Last year I replaced 700 customer service workers with AI. I called it "the future of work." The future arrived. It's worse. In 2023, we stopped hiring entirely. I announced it on stage. People applauded. Applause is how you know you've made a mistake. We partnered with OpenAI. I said "AI can already do all of the jobs that we, as humans, do." I said this publicly. Into a microphone. With my whole chest. We saved $10 million. I put that in the press release. Press releases are how you celebrate before the consequences arrive. Our employee count went from 5,500 to 3,400. I called it "efficiency." Efficiency is when you fire people and the stock goes up. For a while. The AI handled customer complaints. Customers complained about the AI. It couldn't do nuance. It couldn't do empathy. It couldn't do angry customers yelling about missed payments at 2 AM. Turns out those are the only customers who call. I started getting emails. From customers. About the AI. The AI was hallucinating payment plans that don't exist. It told one customer their refund was "processing in the astral realm." I don't know what that means. Neither did the customer. They posted it on Twitter. It went viral. Not the good kind of viral. The kind where Congress starts asking questions. My VP of Customer Experience scheduled a meeting. She asked if we could "reintroduce human elements." Human elements means people. People I fired. I said we'd "explore hybrid solutions." Hybrid solutions means admitting we were wrong. Without using the word "wrong." I did an interview with Bloomberg. I said "there will always be a human if you want." A human if you want. Like it's a topping. Like empathy is extra cheese. I announced a new hiring initiative. We're bringing back customer service workers. But not as employees. As gig workers. From home. No benefits. No stability. Like Uber. But for apologizing. I called it "flexible human infrastructure." That's not a real thing. But it sounds like one. The workers we fired are now contractors. Doing the same job. For less money. With no healthcare. I called it "the evolution of the customer experience." Evolution means we broke something and fixed it worse. But the word sounds forward-thinking. We spent $10 million to save $10 million. And ended up with angry customers, viral tweets, and a gig economy call center. I'm doing a keynote at Davos next month. The topic is "AI Transformation: Lessons in Leadership." I haven't learned any lessons. But I have learned to call them lessons. That's the same thing. In business.

Last quarter I rolled out Microsoft Copilot to 4,000 employees. $30 per seat per month. $1.4 million annually. I called it "digital transformation." The board loved that phrase. They approved it in eleven minutes. No one asked what it would actually do. Including me. I told everyone it would "10x productivity." That's not a real number. But it sounds like one. HR asked how we'd measure the 10x. I said we'd "leverage analytics dashboards." They stopped asking. Three months later I checked the usage reports. 47 people had opened it. 12 had used it more than once. One of them was me. I used it to summarize an email I could have read in 30 seconds. It took 45 seconds. Plus the time it took to fix the hallucinations. But I called it a "pilot success." Success means the pilot didn't visibly fail. The CFO asked about ROI. I showed him a graph. The graph went up and to the right. It measured "AI enablement." I made that metric up. He nodded approvingly. We're "AI-enabled" now. I don't know what that means. But it's in our investor deck. A senior developer asked why we didn't use Claude or ChatGPT. I said we needed "enterprise-grade security." He asked what that meant. I said "compliance." He asked which compliance. I said "all of them." He looked skeptical. I scheduled him for a "career development conversation." He stopped asking questions. Microsoft sent a case study team. They wanted to feature us as a success story. I told them we "saved 40,000 hours." I calculated that number by multiplying employees by a number I made up. They didn't verify it. They never do. Now we're on Microsoft's website. "Global enterprise achieves 40,000 hours of productivity gains with Copilot." The CEO shared it on LinkedIn. He got 3,000 likes. He's never used Copilot. None of the executives have. We have an exemption. "Strategic focus requires minimal digital distraction." I wrote that policy. The licenses renew next month. I'm requesting an expansion. 5,000 more seats. We haven't used the first 4,000. But this time we'll "drive adoption." Adoption means mandatory training. Training means a 45-minute webinar no one watches. But completion will be tracked. Completion is a metric. Metrics go in dashboards. Dashboards go in board presentations. Board presentations get me promoted. I'll be SVP by Q3. I still don't know what Copilot does. But I know what it's for. It's for showing we're "investing in AI." Investment means spending. Spending means commitment. Commitment means we're serious about the future. The future is whatever I say it is. As long as the graph goes up and to the right.

@ck_gen @HavryshkoMarta That is why Russiand do not care if they retreat in Kursk. Wait for the offensive in Zaporozie or move really slowly in Donetsk. As long they have 1 to 1 attrition rate - they win by sheer attrition alone.

@ck_gen @HavryshkoMarta They learned from both USSR and USA in Avganistan, Vietnam and Iraq. "Who has the sheep - has the field". So only way to truly get the field - is to ether bring more sheep- or kill other persons sheep... or preferably both.

The entire article, from the headline to the list of Ukraine’s 'achievements,' fills me with deep sorrow and a sense of the cynicism of Western intellectuals who glorify death and destruction. Because the hell which they call "victory" looks like: 🖍️Tens of thousands dead, hundreds of thousands wounded, tens of thousands without limbs 🖍️10 million have left the country and will never return 🖍️28 million remain, of whom 10 million are pensioners 🖍️Millions of IDPs, only 63 of whom have received state-sponsored housing 🖍️400,000 deserters and those evading service 🖍️20% of territory with rich mineral resources and industrial objects is lost 🖍️Ukraine, for the right to buy weapons, has given away all its natural resources, which, as its Constitution says, 'belong to the people.' 🖍️Ukraine’s territory is among the most heavily mined in the world 🖍️Ukraine cannot, without Western aid, pay for its children’s school lunches or their teachers’ salaries 🖍️Military recruitment offices conduct raids on young men, beating, torturing, and killing them. 🖍️Political repressions, crackdown on free speech 🖍️Flourishing of neo-Nazis and radical nationalists, who are well trained and equipped by NATO ... I invite all the 'experts' on Ukraine’s 'victory' into the trenches.

@KcViernes20895 @HavryshkoMarta Fully agree. This thing will finish before 2030 (when even conservative analyst say China will be ready to take Tauwan) with utter destruction of Ukraine as a viable country and functioning nation (then it really does not matter who's sphere of influence it is in).

@HavryshkoMarta The west indeed considers it a victory.. they call it "by any means necessary". For the west, it is better that Ukraine is destroyed than to surrender to Russia. The same thing will happen to Taiwan by the way..soon.

WAR DEBT AND DELUSION: In his latest post to TRUTH SOCIAL President Donald Trump claims that with more dollars, euros and missiles, Ukraine could still regain all its lost territory. President Trump’s statement is a mixture of sentiment and self-delusion, not strategy. Few wars in modern times have been wrapped in so many illusions as this one.   The number of Ukrainian Soldiers killed in action (KIA) exceed 1.7. million. The numbers of wounded in action (WIA) are unknown, but anecdotal evidence suggests most of the WIA are seriously disabled. The ongoing mobilization of Ukrainian men in their late fifties and early sixties is not evidence for resilience but of exhaustion. Without constant flows of dollars and euros the Ukrainian State and Society would collapse in a few days. Very soon, the globalist ruling class in Washington, London, Paris, and Berlin will raise the question, “Who lost Ukraine,” as though it was ever theirs to lose. However, this time, Americans will ask how Washington insiders, Lobbyists, and the sprawling military-industrial-congressional complex persuaded President Trump to imitate President Biden; to prolong, even widen the war in Ukraine instead of ending it? Contrary to popular belief in the West, Russia was never a wobbling power held together by propaganda. Measured in purchasing power, the war has helped Russia to become the world’s fourth-largest economy. Russian factories are humming night and day, producing shells, missiles, and drones at rates the West cannot match. Not only is the Russian economy thriving, sanctions meant to break its economy have instead pushed global trade eastward and cemented Moscow’s ties with Asia, Africa, and the Middle East. Instead of a paper tiger, Russia looks more like an impregnable fortress. Meanwhile, de-dollarization is advancing rapidly. For the first time in 30 years, foreign central bank gold reserves exceed U.S. treasuries. The dollar’s share of global reserves has already dropped from 72 percent in 2000 to about 58 percent in 2024 according to the International Monetary Fund. In economic terms, Americans are on the losing side in this conflict. The fiscal situation in Britain, France and Germany is equally precarious, with spending levels and deficit trajectories that are unsustainable. For the globalist leaders in Europe who opened their countries’ borders in 2015 to hostile invasion and de-industrialized their countries to follow Washington into the war against Russia the cost is even higher. Their rendezvous with unrest and bankruptcy will come soon, long before Washington reaches the same destination. Unfortunately, Trump’s words confirm the truth that the war in Ukraine really is Washington’s and NATO’s war against Russia. The stark truth makes it much harder for Moscow to compromise with the West. More important, the truth justifies wider Russian military mobilization and deepening ties with Beijing, New Delhi, and Tehran. Europe’s combination of acute military weakness and financial emergency makes the breakdown of Washington’s Atlantic Alliance inescapable. [1/2]
