Anyone claiming that "Ukrainians are Peasants, and Russians aren't", or the reverse is just being a racist
There is nothing remotely racist about saying "If you cut off your left arm, you cannot expect your right foot to take over its functions".
It was manufactured in the Ukrainian SSR
Post-breakup, Russia continued to make the Kurs antenna array while - VERY reluctantly - buying the rest of the system from Ukraine. The fact that they couldn't just grab the blueprints, tool up and make the guts in the Russian Federation makes Kurs as Ukrainian as it needs to be to deserve the name. In any case, a significant slice of Russia's scientists and engineers originated in Ukraine.
Happy employees is management 101
To continue your analogy, most managers either failed that class or are constrained by corporate policy that prevents them from achieving it. There is a real close correlation between "companies that are forcing RTO" and "companies that stack-rank", "companies that RIF regularly based on nonsensical metrics", "companies that are operating on very old policy playbooks" (my previous employer actually had instructions about 8" floppy disks in some of their document control policy docs), etc.
Samsung had an excellent version of Android OS for phones, called Tenzen
That's Tizen, and it was explicitly not Android - it was its own Linux-based OS. The reason Samsung developed it was, at its root, because Google won't let a vendor sell both AOSP and GMS devices; if you are going to sell Google-certified GMS devices, you have to agree not to sell non-Google-certified Android devices. What Samsung was trying to do with all their bullshit parallel app store universe was this: Sell GMS devices (which are the only devices people in primary markets will buy) with Samsung's music store and app store and home automation and intelligent assistant (if you can call Bixby intelligent) and so forth, loaded alongside the compulsory Google apps. Get people into the Samsung app ecosystem. Then sell them a Tizen phone (with Android emulation) that has only the Samsung ecosystem, not Google's. Then, stop paying Google license fees, and also start rolling around in the ad revenue from their own network. PROFIT! It didn't work because nobody cared, or has ever cared, or ever will care, about the Samsung app store, music store, video store, various other canceled stores, or Bixby.
This article indicates, probably correctly, that in 95% of the cases that AI is not suited for the job it was placed in. That's what happens when you believe a salesman
But this is either circular logic, or "you just have to BELIEEEEEEVE". Huge amounts have been spent on placing AI in various positions. If AI salespeople are making 95% of their money selling into places where AI won't work... then the only thing that is provable is "AI can successfully handle only 5% of the paid jobs that it's receiving". It could mean the sustainably addressable market is only 5% of the current snake oil hype market.
when actual responsibility is accorded to an AI, as in a corporate setting, it is going to fail
This. And for a corporation, the whole point is that the AI's output has to be used without having humans look at it, because humans cost [more] money. This is a fundamental, well-discussed issue with many LLM use cases that live in important spaces - to act on the output, you need human invigilators, and once you add enough of those to restore safety to the system, the AI becomes irrelevant.
Just remember to devalue the potential revenue by the percentage of companies that actually gain long term value
Why? Whose "success" are we talking about here? I would argue that if you're an entrepreneur and you build a hallucination, and it sells to someone so you, personally, make out like a bandit - that's success.
Know commit,push,fetch,checkout, branch, merge and rebase, you are done. No need to be a genius
Gee, that sounds an awful lot like what I said about "using memorized magic incantations to operate", n'est-ce pas?
To be fair, git evolved to solve a problem I don't really encounter - lots of people working on the same exact file at the same exact time. In my world, each programmer has responsibility for a module(s) that are pretty isolated - the only shared things being global header files and the like, and the process to change those global header files is long.
