Sucks for the scientists / engineers.
I wonder how long until we start hearing about them βfallingβ out of windows.
They are likely going to be drafted...
maybe that already happened to some of them and that's why this happened
Unlikely, Russia wanted that PR.
Ok, so I wonder if the engineers/data scientists sabotaged this on purpose
I don't think that, they will now be conscripted...
I wonder how long until we stop hearing these stupid jokes.
Jokes?
When the mob that runs their stops fuckin doing it
It's probably too early for this to be a reason for the crash, but Russian brain drain after their full-scale Ukrainian invasion is real.
Brain-drain is going for last 20 years of Putin presidency
Any setback for science is a setback for humanity⦠but at the same time, Russia fucking up is not totally unexpected.
Well, if 80% of budget is stolen for new Rogozin's mansion, I'm surprised it didn't explode at lauch pad.
