![The simulated combatants were the United States, referred to as "Blue", and a fictitious state in the Persian Gulf, "Red", often characterized as Iran or Iraq.[2][3]
MC02 was an experiment mandated by Congress in 2000 to "explore critical war fighting challenges at the operational level of war that will confront United States joint military forces after 2010."[4] The simulation took two years of planning and involved 13,000 troops. The Red force, led by retired Marine Corps Lieutenant General Paul K. Van Riper, used numerous asymmetrical tactics unanticipated by the Blue force; a pre-emptive cruise missile attack sunk sixteen Blue warships and led to the exercise's suspension. The simulation was restarted with Blue forces fully restored, and Red forces heavily constrained from free-play "to the point where the end state was scripted",[4] resulting in a Blue victory. Van Riper later criticized the cost of the exercise as "wasted".[5]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:6alraw43dmyr6eq7qhu3wic6/bafkreidb5rqwq4anhxumkd7dk37mvfsvmqmw7yih4zztjm5z2ovwfpclba)

They still have a solid presence at the Richmond, VA airport. Was surprised they were allowed to set up a table inside

It’s crazy to think how much money Fugazi left on the table by only charging $5 for tickets. One of the most boneheaded business decisions of all time 😂
We're only a few blocks from a Federal Reserve building, so my fingers are crossed
When I lived on Capitol Hill, I thought of it as a perk that I'd be wiped out in a first strike. No fallout for this guy

Awesome, would be great to maintain that campus somehow

Good point. And Norfolk! It's settled then. Suck it, Jefferson Davis
My company considers the Richmond office part of its Nortgeast region, but I guess this makes it official. Virginia is now Northeastern

There's something nefarious about two-factor authorization, right? Especially the sites that push it instead of the password I've already set up...

Track and field, baby. Truly the sport of the people!
Nothing against MOCA but it should be at the American Civil War Museum in Richmond, to show how the conflict has endured in our culture.
Andrew Cuomo was suspiciously silent when Elf (2003) vilified the Central Park Rangers, and yet..
As someone who was, I think, an effective note-taker in college, this discourse about LLM note-takers is alarming. For me, the act of *taking* notes is the important part. If I had thrown the notes away immediately after a lecture or reading a chapter I'd still have gotten 80% of the value.
