vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Did you ever consider doing a "world (partial)" to have an overview of the global evolution where data is available ? Sorry if I'm the 5356th person asking 211
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Norway is not EU. If NATO does not answer, the EU would be even more illegitimate to respond 100
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 27/08/2026Help Ukraine more ? Aggressive AWACS support, taurus, jassm, immediate euroclear seizure, Kaliningrad rail blocus, full starlink, grippen + meteor + NATO logistics in Ukraine for plane maintenance, datalink 16... 101
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 07/08/2026Whoa they are still exporting diesel :( by now I had hoped they would be a net importer 110
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 02/08/2026I've wanted to do this graph for some time now. Thanks for the data ! bsky.app/profile/vpi.... 010
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 02/08/2026Visualization of impacted refining capacity (credits @hoholenko.bsky.social for the data). AI assisted graph. I need to check the data quality on a computer. 010
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 13/07/2026I would love to see the actual current figure for Russia 110
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 12/07/2026Would be interesting to get the price for the no queue < 20% 010
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 10/07/2026Appreciate the answer and sorry my post was so sarcastic. It's a real question I have regarding Russia's options. Right now, excluding nukes, I don't really see what great option they have that could improve their situation on the battlefield (even mobilization sounds debatable). 010
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 09/07/2026That's a lot of words about escalation without ever hinting at what escalation could realistically look like 120
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 25/06/2026Mask blobs first and then run ransac for circles with positive scoring for point on circle, negative for no point and 0 for masked blob zone ? 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 16/06/2026Entreprises d'IA : "Grâce à l'IA, écrire du code ne coûte presque plus rien" Aussi entreprises d'IA : "ce logiciel vaut 60 milliards" 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 09/06/2026Could you please explain the methodology behind this? Over what timeframe were these satellite images captured? Do you exclude airframes that are obviously not airworthy (if any)? Also, how confident are you in distinguishing between the different variants? Very interested in the details, thanks! 210
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Targeting the trucks is more a long term attrition strategy where your drone destroys a truck, a driver and supplies. The drone pays for itself tenfold but you are playing the long game. Armchair general off 130
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Wanna play devil's advocate too. Cutting the road stops the supply for a few days to the front line. This is good if you want the front line attacks to stop or if you want to advance yourself. This costs a lot in drones and it is repaired quickly and cheaply. Bad for long term attrition. 140
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 03/04/2026Well, good luck to @elmustek.bsky.social with that list : elmustek.substack.com/p/operation-... He can see how long @rebel44cz.bsky.social has been maintaining hiselmustek.substack.comOperation Epic Fury - Documenting Equipment Losses during the 2026 Israel/USA - Iran WarThe following List aims to document the visually confirmable Equipment Losses which occurred during the Fighting. 010
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 22/02/2026Wow, nice work. Thanks. What surprised me in the first graph is that I seem to recall that at the beginning of the war, the enemy loses claims used to be much lower port day, and at some point the methodology seemed to change. So I'm surprised that it would match mediazona from the start 240
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 22/02/2026Wow, it's this graph true O_o this is almost too perfect 150
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 16/01/2026Mmmm, China is buying *oil* at a near 50% discount. I don't think anyone in the Russian government would want to see the discount applied to the current sberbank valuation 130
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 15/01/2026I think what prevents them from selling the illiquid part is the fact that it is illiquid 110
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 14/01/2026According to @jakluge.de they just lowered it last year because they meet their yearly recruitment goal early... New year might have them start from scratch janiskluge.substack.com/p/russian-re...janiskluge.substack.comRussian recruitment and casualties in Q3 / 2025According to regional data, Russian recruitment is still stable. Several regions lowered their bonuses. Payouts to families of killed soldiers indicate a high rate of Russian losses. 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 20/12/2025The shahed trajectory angle changes every time it blurs or is hidden 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 07/12/2025A-t-on une idée de la population qu'elle a gagné en prenant des territoires ? 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 21/11/2025Interesting take. I've seen elsewhere that there is no NATO and Russian as an official language which are both very hard to swallow too imho. No NATO is especially humiliating for both Ukraine and NATO. 020
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 03/09/2025Thanks for these updates. Eagerly awaiting January... 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 21/08/2025The insurance part makes sense though. Thanks for all your great work btw. All those charts are extremely interesting and I've not seen anything like it anywhere else. 020
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Ah my bad and thanks for the clarification. I guess with Russia the distinction between the private sector and the state is not clear to me and to be honest I always expect some kind of budget line like "special spending on oil infrastructure" that would cover air defense but also some repairs. 120
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 21/08/2025I might be wrong on this but repairing oil refineries might fall under janis' military spending 100
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 16/06/2025Thanks for pointing out the irony of russian statements which is too often lost on journalists. 000
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 08/06/2025 This does not seem to match mediazona very well. For 2022 they had 17814 deaths. For 2023 33878. But this is only confirmed deaths so I would expect the excess death to be well above the confirmed list. Especially when their probate registry estimate is constantly twice that. Am I missing somethg ? 120
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 04/06/2025Perhaps the most important job in Ukraine right know. Wishing him all the success 080
vpi.bsky.social @vpi.bsky.social · 17/05/2025Peut-être mais c'est sûrement au moins autant pour le message que pour ne pas tomber dans le panneau... 000
