Lmao. This is too real. Was talking with an older colleague who was doing her phd in physics, and working at honeywell on a project she learned was helping develop targeting for cluster bombs. So she quit that and got into studying sediment transport. Insidious is such an understatement for the military industrial complex.
Do you know what that looks like in practice? Like is it actually subtle or is it actually like the “please engineer something that can shoot a rocket with medical supplies directly at lost hikers who have gone raving mad from isolation and try to hide from it”?
I can’t recall specifically, but I believe it was more subtle; along the line of doing momentum computations to be input via punch card (maybe more recent than punch cards, but I believe it was in the late 70s/early 80s).

i remember one supposed example was drone delivering pizzas to a bedroom window on a house
Thanks, props to your friends for getting out but boy is that not subtle.
No kidding. “My customer would like to deliver 10 pizza’s simultaneously to every room in the house, from one missile, ahem- I mean drone, launch.”
I’m kind of shocked the meme example of the lost hikers is like, correct.
“I am planning a pizza party for my neighborhood and need a delivery vehicle that will scatter little
bombletspizzalets to all the excited children”I can’t recall specifically, but I believe it was more subtle; along the line of doing momentum computations to be input via punch card (maybe more recent than punch cards, but I believe it was in the late 70s/early 80s).
