mircea_popescu: that's what nobody wants to really say about string theory : while it's
a ridiculous pile of pasta, it's not *really* that far off from physics.
mircea_popescu: kakobrekla:
http://xkcd.com/1489/ <<< that's pretty much EXACTLY it. and then various noobs imagine physics is
a serious science, while in fact it barely hangs out at the outskirts of credibility, and same noobs imagine stuff like i dunno, psychiatry or "earth sciences" are not kinda as srs as physics "but nevertheless".
mircea_popescu: assbot: Greece and creditors agree to extend bailout package << euians saw all the fun usians had with the "debt ceiling", made

BingoBoingo: In USia "drugs" are often used as
a pretext by USG for taking nice things from people who have nice things.
kakobrekla: >Later in the the night, we went up to his apartment, where I spotted
a couple of bongs. At some point, Shrem told me, “I won’t hire you unless I drink with you or smoke weed with you—that’s
a 100 percent fact.”
cazalla: fkn unaustralian cunts never heard of

Adlai: yeah i guess you need

cazalla: everything would suggest arjan roskam is nothing but
a glorified adsense marketer for weed
BingoBoingo: punkman: That was more
a concern for the local authorities. If the feds knew, they almost always just kept such information in J Edgar's blackmail file.
punkman: iirc one of his partners was
a USG agent, surprising he escaped USG prison
BingoBoingo: First act of this morning which began an hour after midnight, shoveling snow and laying salt was
a success
thestringpuller: falling asleep at
a computer is one of the most amazing feelings ever
decimation: mats, this paper is not some random derp, it's
a highly connected dod think tank
mircea_popescu: decimation basically they're really desperate to maintain as much projection into future budgets, but in point of fact... maintaining both
a carrier and
a nuclear powered sub programme isn't likely.
decimation: " New ASW technologies and improve- ments to non-nuclear undersea platforms, however, will likely enable adversaries to comple- ment their surface and air A2/AD networks with undersea surveillance and attack systems. These may not have the reach of anti-ship ballistic missiles or modern surface-to-air missiles, but they have the potential to make the undersea littorals of
a potential adversary an increas- ingly denied zone. "
mats: sounds like
a good scam
decimation: emitted by
a submarine also date from the Cold War and may benefit from the improved sensitivity “big data” could provide."
decimation: "Emerging non-acoustic detection techniques also show great promise. The theoretical possibilities of detecting minute changes on the ocean’s surface caused by
a submarine or the wake it leaves underwater have been widely recognized since the Cold War, but only now have processing power and oceanographic modeling improved to the point where these approaches may be operationally feasible. Methods to detect radiation or chemicals
mircea_popescu: and once they can't actually work tactically anymore, they're basically
a smaller submersible carrier.
decimation: asciilifeform: on page 14 of the linked pdf you can see
a picture of sub 'taking off' uav
mats: well for one thing
a carrier is vulnerable on all axes
decimation: asciilifeform: "
A new approach to offensive undersea operations. Manned submarines will likely need to shift from being front-line tactical platforms like aircraft to being host and coordination platforms like aircraft carriers. "
decimation: the paper in question seems to imply it's mainly
a matter of what happens when the sub gets too close to shore
mats: i imagine its easier to defend
a sub rather than
a carrier
mircea_popescu: well, it makes little sense to keep
a nuclear sub and
a carrier these days
mircea_popescu: for one thing, the horn holds pretty much
a shot. for the other, ru actually has air superiority since about 2013.
decimation: the russians apparently toy with the yuropeans like
a kitty toys with
a fish
