I wonder how this system can be protected from spam - if anyone can send data there, enemy can, too

“We just launch it and we know everything will be dead – everything that will be found there in this particular area will be dead,” says Kokhanovskyy.

Everything! Everything! Like all the deer, all the rabbits, all the decoys! Obviously we trust Kokhanovskyy

Come on, Russian "страна наиболее вероятного противника" (the country of the most likely enemy) was always the military name of the US since the Cold War. Now used in military texts and also as a sarcastic cliché

What is expensive in nuclear energy? Reason there is not more of nuclear reactors is not the cost, it is regulation. Regulation can be changed (it also seem to already have, recently, IIRC - starting 2024 NRC law changes by Biden admin and later by Trump admin)

Vegas: ordering a tax "to a hotel" - hotels have different entrances, pickup / dropoff there during crazy times is hard. Uber UI for Vegas is unique / some features are designed to make it easier for driver and passanger to find each other

Airports: different regulations, different rules for pickup/dropoff. Also scammers who pretend to be in a car, walk with their phones around pick-up ares in airport and do bait-and-switch (saw that in Istanbul SAW and in Dubai Al Maktoum)

Second this

Have the same pattern, issue is cortisol/stress, not sounds / etc that happen precisely at night

Built simular things tonwhat Op did (thoug using Oura for sleep tracking, not Garmin)

Result: no statistically significant variations in sounds, CO2 normal etc. Cortisol is what doctors/AI told me first

It wasn't Russian pension, it was the famous Soviet pension, yeah.

Not so ironical much, eh?

The Wikipedia article says that he had a lifetime pension and died in his 70s from stomach issues.

Where did you get this "died in poverty" nonsense from?
