    If Europe were to allow allow Russia to defeat Ukraine, it would be facing a much more capable military adversary than is now the case.

    Ukrainian intelligence reports that it was able to shoot down a Russian helicopter with a naval drone for the first time in history

    Repurposed R73 air to air missile, reportedly.

    Ukraine had a good night.

    Rather amusing was half of Sevastopol being on fire, while the Russians claimed that all the Ukranian drone planes and boats were intercepted.

    One oil depot in Smolensk with a fire visible from space, but the governor there has the same excuse that it’s just some falling debris that came down.

    Funny comment underneath that the defenders should call their next air drone “Falling Debris”.

    This is a great paper.
    Thoughts ?

    The Unbearable Slowness of Being: Why do we live at 10 bits/s?

    They had fun writing that paper. Could their 10 bits/s rate of information processing become the new IQ = 100 standard?

    Sadiq Khan rewarded for failure, apparently.

    So what about Andy Street?

    Re-elected and successfully pushed through flagship policy in face of widespread criminality and actual bombings.

    Arise Sir Sadiq.
    Flagship policy? Giving a few silly names to railway lines?
