Am I offtrack in wondering if by reverse engineering the mentioned in-the-clear ATM communications you could (in theory) inject some malicious packets and in effect just dispense cash to yourself with a laptop and a dish? How very cyberpunk

Isn't part of the problem assuming that there is a single global optimum? It seems there are at least two, such as in the case of utilities: best services or best profits for the shareholders. Again in the case of utilities we see time

I'm left handed myself and have always loved and excelled at reading (according to various tests or programs in school anyway), not that anecdata is much good but there it is

Huh I didn't realize that. I grew up watching Fox on channel 49, one slice of history gone.

To be fair helicopters are held aloft by man's engineering hubris and blatantly flaunting gravity. Taking a drone to the tail rotor may not be entirely healthy to the crew of the chopper.

"He made it up" certainly seems more likely than Iran, what, retrofitting one of their old Kilo class D/E subs to be a drone mothership that's just lurking off the coast?

As most of the heavy construction and earth moving equipment you'd use to bury the wood will be burning diesel and releasing carbon the entire time, you enter some new Tyranny of the Rocket/Wagon equation.

I'm one of those people. My mom was an executive who traveled to DC practically weekly, so I have fond memories of going go PDX often go see her off and pick her up with my dad. That carpet features in those memories.

While my only exposure to laughing gas was while being put under for dental work, I can certainly see the appeal. Even that controlled application was pretty fun.

Same, I've never liked spanning a window across multiple monitors. The discontinuity of the bezel is a handy mental break. Often I'll have email and teams on one screen and my main item of work on the central screen.

Oh I can imagine it happening. I'm currently working in Pearl Harbor and find myself hoping that I'll be on-base if the balloon goes up, thus avoiding any post-apocalyptic survival bullshit in a brilliant flash.

Can we set the benchmark against the average age of our lawmakers? As they age into a gerontocracy, so too do we age into our midlife crises being 'youthful indiscretions'

Frankly a wild take. Por qué no los dos? I don't see there being anything about "being a decent human being" that precludes that person from also being a good doctor. Yes, "Should we excuse someone's reprehensible b
