Pentagon Farmed Out Its Coding to Russia

Just another example of the blatant cronyism and corruption that goes on in bloated defense contracts with limited oversight.

We need a new model for how the DOD and gov as a whole handle software contracts. Our existing procurement models just fall flat on their face with software - Healthcare.gov as another example.

I'm no security expert, but aren't they the enemy?

OTOH, some of the best algorithmicists I know hail from former Soviet-bloc repubs ;)
