Hey, serious question related to this since you have a search/rescue background. How would you find the survivor in a mountainous area? Don't you have to use a helicopter anyways or if it's a ground party... wouldn't the

Rain? High winds? I doubt a 250 pound dude in a jetpack is going to fair any better than 15,000 pound copter. Tight areas... maybe. But if the tree canopy is too tight, I don't see how a dude with a jetpack is truly going to navigate t

So... how is this better than a rescue helicopter with a basket (like the US Coast Guard)? Helicopter in an EMT to go down with the basket, stabilize the victim, place victim in the basket, retract, fly away (yes, I know, there's more

In emergency situations, having gear with as close to 100% uptime and 100% reliability as possible far outweighs something new and fancy that gets stuck on an update, license issue or needs a reboot. People who dont risk their lives trying

I know in the indie game field, ~95% of lifetime sales happen in the first year. But to be fair, they typically don't have the similar marketing power as a AAA. I'd venture 60% (gut/instinct). There must be a good reason for

Your argument can easily apply to locks, safes and general physical security. It will always be done. I've been hearing "DRM is will be useless soon" since the early 2000s. Many DRM companies are 10-30+ years old, with multip

You do realize whoever wrote the spec for this DRM now has free advertising to be hired for more projects and make bank. If Rockstar did it in house, I'm pretty sure they're going to make a spinoff DRM company. Useless, stupid, wh

I'm curious if you need multiple admin accounts to verify suspending an account or hide a tweet, or is it just anyone with privileges can do it willy nilly without collective accountability.

I'd like to point out that "revisionism" is even scarier in the digital age. Once you print a book/magazine/newspaper. It's done and locked down on what you said. You can't exactly take it back. Other than

Yup. Also, while supporting the "competition", you allow them to play the long game to find and fund ways of taking ground from Amazon when there are missteps. But at the same time, I find it really weird to go, "I morally ca
