“For reasons that remain unclear, the news stories that erupted this week resurfaced a couple of nasa press releases from January, which came out after the study’s scientists presented some of their preliminary results at a conference. The

The gun debate over the last few weeks makes me think otherwise. Edit: I don't think they want to repeal it. I think they want to ignore it. In fact- I don't think anyone actually wants to go through the hassle of repeal for any

Maybe do what you think is right and be quick to apologize if it is appropriate. Edit: I am absolutely baffled by the downvotes. What am I missing?

If we are all honest with ourselves, we acknowledge that we have our opinions about how most men think and how most women think. The difference between being cast out and being celebrated is that the latter keeps their opinions to themselve

The existence of vulnerabilities doesn’t negate the bullshit security theatre of certificate authorities. Banning http is a great example of tossing the baby with the bathwater. Https is better, but there are still valuable use cases for un

You get the quote within the first 30 secs directly from soros’ mouth. I think that a lot of the noise about the man is bogus. I also would rather be aware of facts than close-minded.

Businesses are accountable to local government. While local government is accountable in elections, I don’t think that is a reasonable stick for day to day operations. I find your contexting my comment as a “mistake” to be arrogant to the p

I am all for locally based ISPs. It would be amazing if local municipalities could create incentives for financing the last mile of connectivity exclusively to local ISPs. I absolutely abhor the idea of government supplied Internet. I’m t

This person in incredibly well advised. Operators should not be blamed for government-mandated, piss poor alert systems. The government is responsible for this fiasco, not the button pusher. They have nothing to gain and a lot to lose by c

When I saw Atlanta on the list, I felt that it's over. The rail system is far superior to what exists in Seattle & should support reasonable suburban commutes. Georgia Tech's talent supply makes it interesting, but I get the

This is the fundamental misunderstanding. Most in the ISP crowd agree with what you are agreeing with. But the net neutrality folks predominantly reject this approach. I want surgery over IP. I don’t want surgical packets treated the same

I would argue that part of the decline of HTC has been Because of their FTC penalties. Look at the last year of equifax’s stock price. One major dip related to one major news story. Their are a few anecdotes, but most of the time, there is

The number of security events that have significantly affected stock values is very limited. Only equifax comes to mind. If I recall correctly, Weev tried to short AT&T in advance of the iPad hack, but only got a tiny intra-day dip. T

I feel like a lot of really smart people are really naive about public relations. PR exists to protect the company from the masses and the lawyers. We in the tech community should not waste time personalizing a response to pr communication

When you hear telco execs talk about “the copper plant,” they are referring to all of the underground copper. This wire is laid out in sheathed bundles of excess pairs that can be used to replace a pair that has a short. When they eventua
