We are being governed by fools.
Notice I said *good* workforce? I have no idea the quality of the Russian developers. For all I know they are no better than those on the US.
Whomever made that brilliant decision needs to be covered in honey and staked to the ground next to a fire ant mound.
Literally the fate of the nation, and the lives of every single soldier, sailor, airman and marine has been placed in jeopardy because of this. WTF was going through the idiot’s mind? WTF was going through the minds of his/her supervisors?
Our “leaders” are anti-American fools...and traitors.
Amazing
Or that bill clinton sold our nuke weapons and missile guidance tech to the Chinese. Who’s gonna’ believe that?/sarc
I’m a pretty good programmer...
But the finest programmers I have ever seen were all Russians...made me look like a noob.
For some reason they just have the knack.
Moscow University has a pretty good nexus of computer scientists and top notch programmers working for US companies via third party corporate cutouts.
The Russians are technically very good. A favorite activity is to find ways to tweak the lesser abilities of USA programmers in their work.
It is common lore that the Russians are good because their computers were once so underpowered that they had to make up for it by better programming techniques.
I’ve run a corporation overseas and employed Russian developers... They are no better the US devs and in some respects, they can be worse. The lack of a teamwork concept is definitely detrimental. Many Russians play CYA most of the time, especially the older generation
My guess is Russian developers going to work on a US military project have, uh, “special” capabilities.
