The global situation, for starters.



… is unrelated to software as far as I am aware


Well, let’s increase your awareness, then.

Okay, you’re just being obtuse. The original comment was about the quality of Russian software documentation. That is unrelated to cyberwarfare, a subject I wrote about extensively, and earned recognition for. [0]

You are assuming two things:

1) everyone knows you and what you have written and that makes you the authority (not true, obviously, and kind of makes you look like a top hat)

2) what you have written applies to the situation (not true; Russia is an authoritarian dictatorship where every business entity is potentially a state actor)


My point wasn’t to claim that I’m some sort of famous writer, it was simply to prove I have background knowledge in the subject and still disagree with you. The fundamental flaw of this conversation is you assuming that my disagreement with you is out of a lack of information, rather than simply reaching a different conclusion.
