Each layer consumes additional resources which ultimately consumes energy.
In today’s environment, we try and abstract anything and everything away. From the services we use to the software we create and if we were to take a look at those dependencies, that graph would be stuff of nightmares.
These "Battle Rifles" were able to reach out to thousand plus yards and still be effective for a regular grunt. These rifles and their calibers were meant for killing, taking body parts off, creating gaping wound channels.
I don't remember exactly when, yet sometime after WW2, the US Forces surveyed and found that they weren't engaging targets 800-1,000 yards out. Instead, they were engaging targets in the 50-300 range.
The US military decided that they wanted to carry more ammunition and bring the engagement zone down from the 800-1k to the 250ish. This resulted in a smaller cartridge (.223/5.56). The strategy moved to taking the enemy combatant out of the fight by injuring them instead of killing them. This had a huge advantage in their eyes... rather than the main goal of killing, they wanted to injure. By injuring, it took them out of the fight, but it also took precious resources away from the enemy, which now has to care for their injured comrade.
Why don't we hear anything about the larger calibers, which are meant to be truly destructive?
I loved your write up, cthalupa and i find it a shame that people, when discussing topics such as this, don't even know about the items they're arguing about.
Crap.... didn’t read past the title.
There are "battle rifles" and included under this umbrella is the M1 Garand, which is a larger caliber. The US Military realized that they needed a weapon that only shot out to 100-400(ish) meters rather than 700-900 meters, which was needed for WW1 & WW2. The "assault rifle" came about and actually refers to the ammunition rather than the weapon. The "assault" caliber is meant to take a person out of the fight rather than kill them.
There's a person that has a Huntington Beach address that's owed over one million by California. There's hundreds of thousands of dollars waiting for Google and its subsidies to claim. This is the same for all major corporations... In Los Angeles County, a certain Agency has overcharged nearly all of their commercial customers hundreds of millions (possibly billion(s)) of dollars over the last few decade.
Wealth Detective has a nice ring to it.
One thing that I've found amazing is that if you build from scratch, you can have a cross-platform native desktop application that runs on software that's pretty much installed on all company computers.
- Would you discount the person for not being able to answer your question right there?
- Would you think that this is a person who doesn't like to make rash decision (or the opposite)?
- Would you be thinking that this person is wasting your time?
- Would you allow it or have 'em answer right then and there?
