At the time when the jet violated Turkish airspace it wasn't a territorial threat either. Strangely enough no jet has violated Turkish airspace since (but a few drones have landed in Turkey during the war in Ukraine).
Meanwhile Russian drones, cruise missiles (!) and planes violate NATO airspace almost daily it seems. And are being launched from within NATO arispace quite frequently (see Germany).
And no, the drones are not the "Amazon delivery drones".
E.g on September 8 Geran-4 flew 120 km unopposed through Romanian airspace, took a leisurly turn above a small town with population of ~20k people, and then flew back, eventually crashing in Moldova.
Some people said two days, some said ten days. Russian officials thought they would get a short war, and they were wrong. Wikipedia will point you to a bunch of references.
A Russian war with Europe would not be the short war that the original poster alludes to by invoking statements from a Russian official.
I think the way I've talked about incremental linking may have given a somewhat misleading impression. I'm not against incremental linking, and I'm not denying its possible usefulness. But especially when I was developing lld, I felt that we should focus first on speeding up full links.
Before I created lld, linking was much slower than it is today, and people somehow seemed to accept that as a given. People would often argue that since linking was slow, we needed to reduce the amount of linking work by implementing incremental linking. I thought that was too pessimistic. Why don't we just make the usual full link much faster, ideally almost as fast as a cp command, so that we don't need incremental linking nearly as much?
In other words, I wanted to solve the slow link problem head-on rather than work around linker slowness. And now we can link multi-gigabyte binaries in a second or two, which makes incremental linking much less urgent than it was ten years ago. That's pretty much what I wanted to achieve.
Am I satisfied with the speed? No. Could incremental linking speed it up even more? Maybe. Would it still be useful? Sure. It may well be worth doing. But people don't need it nearly as badly as they did ten years ago. I wanted to solve the larger problem first.
This used to be quite common in Chile as well. I don't think it's that prevalent anymore, but it was very interesting to see the synergy some families built after decades of cohabiting with a "service person" (don't really know what word to use). I met a lot of people that widely regarded their service lady as a mother, they were pretty much raised with them around, so the bonds run deep. I have no doubt some times the compensation might not exactly be the best, but I have met quite a lot of people that are well happy with this arrangement.
This is just my opinion, but there are some services that just package software as VM and let's you spawn it with a fancy button, leaving you with a largely unmanaged instance.
There are other services like S3, BigQuery or SQS that feels like magic.
