Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 8hAnd only now remembered this picture of the ~~autocrat~~ president of Finland for 25(!) years, Urho Kekkonen. His ur-hipster drip from 1975 (before it was cool) includes, you guessed it, a (fancy) puukko knife. Dangling just how I remember especially old men carrying theirs in public in the 1980s. 1155
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 8hI’m not sure whether we have to, under any circumstances, hand it to autocrats, but I’ve been under the impression that life during Tito wasn’t entirely horrible... (And here we Finns really can’t be throwing stones after all the autocratic bullshit we happily accepted from This Guy for 25 years) 570
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 03/10/2026It’s just that it is shitty reasoning based on deep ignorance of actual difficulties in killing humans. As someone who has spent a considerable amount of the last 26 years at least occasionally thinking about the problem of killing humans, these guys are all just hand waving everything. 140

Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 01/10/2026Ho hum. Guess who has #OSINT -based, fully sourced, printer-friendly cross-reference tables listing, IDK, over 800 pieces of Russian Ground Forces equipment, with their Latin, NATO/US, alternative, and Cyrillic designations and names, and other information? *And* reference entries for 56 of them? 4170

Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 30/09/2026Even though I detest the immigrant-hating far right, if any immigrants actually tried to do this to Finland, I would even be obliged to resist it by lethal means. 000
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 30/09/2026I really liked Oulanka's Karhunkierros trip! The site below says the top three Finnish national parks for old forest enjoyers are 1. Syöte 2. Hiidenportti 3. Urho Kekkonen's park (tho largely low growth) It has great maps! Blues are >111 years old in 2026. polkujenlumo.com/nain-loydat-... 240
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 30/09/2026I believe terror tends to be counterproductive to national liberation. However, if foreigners had divided up Finland like Palestine and pushed native Finns into similar “reservations” - the map shows approximate equivalence - I for one would be oath bound to resist with any means necessary. 2130
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 28/09/2026More experiences from life under right-wing governments: during its term, the most right-wing government in Finnish history has greatly increased the purchasing power of the top earning deciles, while reducing it for the poorest. labore.fi/julkaisu/ost... 810330
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 24/09/2026Built a "toy model" to illustrate a major problem with the "AI will kill all humans" #AIpocalypse brouhaha. Namely: at least for the foreseeable future, a hostile or indifferent #AI that tried to get rid of us puny humans... would also make *itself* extinct. jmkorhonen.github.io/models/kill_... 3111
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 24/09/2026A good place as any to advertise one of my favourite books: How to Measure Anything, by D. W. Hubbard. Despite its boring business focus, it's very much worth a read. *Especially* if you are vehemently hostile to the idea! If nothing else, you'll learn much about the enemy. 2201

Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 23/09/2026We had these for the folks specifically trained as “guerrillas.” Depicts their sleeping quarters. (Still used by recon units.) Finnish Cold War doctrine also fully expected that every unit, even those in the rear echelon, could be isolated and would have to fight an independent guerrilla war. 120

Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 21/09/2026This is my great granddad, and my granddad in their home. The former couldn't afford a chimney, or shoes for everyone in the household. In northeastern Finland. So. Yeah. 5592
Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 21/09/2026Individually, probably not. Together, absolutely. Sweden has a pretty good bomb design in the archives already. Defence has never won a war and is not a reliable deterrent against the Kremlins. Capability to incinerate their major cities is. Incidentally: population density of Russia. 180

Janne M. Korhonen @jmkorhonen.fi · 19/09/2026This weird Harry Potter cult that is hugely influential in OpenAI and Anthropic has believed for decades now that AI ≈ god. The AIpocalypse chatter is basically this but with people who think blogs and “first principles“ thinking are superior to peer reviewed research. 081
