How good are Russian tanks and military anyway?



If "Pravda" reports that there are over 25 000 killed Russian troops in the Ukraine war. There must be many other killed combatants like mercenaries who are not reported. The Russian army calls mercenaries from Northern Africa and other friendly countries. That thing, allows them to hide some part of their losses in the war. 

Modern warfare is very technical, and the use of advanced technology means that there are lots of places, where can be errors. Even if something works perfectly in simulations and training there could be a difference in real situations. In modern high-tech, only one connector that is not connected properly the entire system can fail. The active protection systems must be working as they should. 

And if there is some kind of errors in computers, sensors, or computer programs the system would not work correctly. Then we can think about the tanks and other equipment by using the questions. What that equipment should be? What have they been in training and exercises? And then the final and the most important question is: are all product series made with the same accuracy and qualification standards as the tanks and systems that are reserved for Putin's favorite commanders. 

The thing in Russian tanks and other military systems is that when we are reading their technical analysis those systems would be the best in the World. But then we can see what happens in Ukraine. There are lots of destroyed tanks. Maybe the destruction of one "Armata" tank doesn't make them fail. 

But the fact is that there is something that destroys the Russian tanks in Ukraine. Is that thing something between the steering wheel and backrest? Are the Russian troops lacking training? Or did somebody forget to tell them how they should do that equipment? Or did somebody tell them that their tank is immune against all possible ammunition? 

Is that thing the problem with tactics? If we think that the thing that causes losses is tactics, why Russians will not change their tactics? When we are looking at things like the Ex-CIA chief's testimony about Putin's need to win the war in Ukraine we must remember one thing. In Ukraine are fighting the most trained troops. And if the losses of that kind of troops are heavy they are hard to replace. Those troops are the most loyal staff in the Russian military. 

And without them, Putin loses part of his authority. Those highly trained military staffs are the tool that Putin affects police and paramilitary troops. If the police will not smash demonstrations. Putin sends that professional military personnel to that mission. But things like raping, other kinds of war crimes, robberies, heavy use of alcohol, and other undisciplined actions are causing discussions about the professionalism of those troops. 

There are also killed many Russian generals in Ukraine. The loss of about 10 generals where at least two were lieutenant-generals is not a small thing. The list is taken from Wikipedia, and some of those losses are disputed. And most of them are not confirmed. But the fact is that even if some of those people are injured. That thing doesn't mean that they can continue their career. And the loss of lots of senior officers affects the training of the successors for those officers.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying.  Does the AI have feelings?  Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans.  What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions.  In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

    Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1).    A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true.  The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

  Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory  Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains.  Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series.  So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
