  • Yes true if they lack appropriate air support and logistics support. Which is the case for Ukraine.

    Modern western strategy is very different from that of WW2. The key is integration of air support, artillery, armor, infantry, etc. If Ukraine had superior fighter jets, to gain air superiority and anti tank and anti personnel platforms like A10 and Apache, all platforms working in sync and all backed by logistics support to keep everything operating, it would be a different story I guess.

    Related, I wonder if they’re suggesting the old Russian tanks would somehow perform better than the western ones? Because as far as I know, western tanks have the best armor systems, the highest accuracy, and the ability to fire while moving. Maybe they need to adapt their tactics to make better use of their platforms?



  • A fish rots from the head. Corporate culture all flows from the CEO and board. If a bigoted piece of shit is in charge, this is what you get. Because the top of the company sets and enforces policy. So if they don’t care about bigotry or if they are bigoted themselves, they won’t set or enforce policies to stop it. They will hire bigoted management. Those bigots won’t stop it and probably encourage it. They hire bigoted workers who will persecute others and face no consequences. Those who anti-bigots can report but will be ignored or face retaliation.









  • Likewise. Meds help me …but so did therapy. I still have to have the mindset right. If I do and I’m on meds then it actually works.

    I totally believe (without any evidence but my own experience) that procrastination for me with ADHD is at least partly a response to prior unhappy experiences.

    Now that I recognize some of the emotional components involved I can work through those directly and have a much better chance of getting motivated .

    And also I still procrastinate plenty and I have come to avoid self judgement. Because beating myself up doesn’t help me get motivated. It does the opposite. I accept that this is a tendency but one that I continue to improve upon.
