Yeap, it gets into a philosophical debate of what comprehension.

One could argue it's not about compression in bits but compression to primitives that makes sense to the human mind. But then the definition becomes to fuzzy because it naturally invites the question "Who's mind?"

The only question I have is: why ?

Seems political an irrelevant to tech.

Also it's clickbaity, it's basically saying that Putin will put the guy in solitary confinement or close to... which seems reasonable seeing as he's a dictator that hates the guy and wished to kill him (then failed).

Yeap, this seems like marketing 101.

Also, looking at the profile, the author seems to be peddling various cookie-cutter "products" he's trying to sell to "entrepreneurs"... I wonder if he read his first link.

A bit off topic, but I like the usage of "social engineering attack" instead of "anything to do with the word computers/cyber/hacking", because it places the onus on the correct parties and the correct systems that failed.

is it practical in any way?

Does the fact that the MSFT president made it make anyone else think it's a fairly worthless statement?

Not trying to bad-mouth MSFT, just saying that presidents are PR.

Presumably no arrests made though means people didn't fight the medical professionals trying to incarcerate them? So I assume most of them went voluntarily.

Not sure it fits on HN, for some reason it really resonated with me though.
