Russia used to be quite advanced in information technology. At one point they prided themselves on being one of only four nations with Internet-scale search engines IIRC. Their little military operation already cost them lots of talent. And now they are actively losing infra too. Nice.
The problem is Russia still has enough talent willing to work and develop advanced weaponry like drones and their software.
Out of curiosity, which was the 4th nation besides the US and China?
poor russia[ns], lost so much because of all the genocide they're doing.
>> Russia used to be quite advanced in information technology
it really never was. apart from a few one-off examples they have nothing if interest and quality.
Yep, most of talent has left
