The idea here is some foreign actor agent (that could be a U.S. citizen by the way) could have participated in storming/ breaking and entering the capitol. Looks can be deceiving.

Neither Ukraine nor Chile are NATO members. In fact the invasion was triggered due to membership being on the table -- I am going to avoid touching this subject further though here.

In Greece, we do take an engineering oath to graduate: in summary to nurture and expand science and to improve and protect human welfare. In a similar fashion, in Canada they have the iron ring https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki

Availability for space for one. Moving your whole family in a different even state for the other -- which might not be an option, breaking lease etc during a pandemic. And not all employers have clarified when they expect employees to come

Unfortunately (or fortunately because other phenomena are based on this also -- see gossiping protocols), that is true. Once you have a critical population, related with the connectivity of the subgraph, the propagation is self-sustained, t

This is driven with money-saving in mind -- at least short term. Consider it is easier to lease space as a landlord if it is open space floorplan, and it is easier to deal with a 1-2 year temporary space as a startup, than actually pay to m

Yes concrete is "flammable" in the context of fluorine (most things are though). Chlorine trifuoride is extremely notorious for that. Silicon dioxide can be oxidized by fluorine (which is a stronger oxidizing agent than oxygen, so

This is another cause to the issue, I think. Even if the guard was efficient into going to the correct location, the guard placed themselves and others in danger: they headed towards an enclosed spaces where a fire alarm indicated evidence

I am afraid that if this is true, yes, you are right and this is ill-thought. But this is the truth with all fines. I think we have reached the point that more fangs are necessary (breaking the monopolies would be a nice start -- that way f

I have to say that is not productive, especially as a teenager, or old child, where sleep patterns shift to a "late-night-owl" more, and extra sleep beyond 7-8 hours is critical.

I have the same question. My first guess would be it was due to the reality of using the limited space and design process. Note the mention in the article about asynchronous logic and hand-wired gates. It probably seemed a better trade-off

Use of 'they' if sex is unknown is normal I'd say. This is not the case here it seems though, so a complaint is valid. I do not think a formal 'they' is improper, or a new innovation e.g. see comment here ( https:&#

Just to add a bit on this. The (U.S) Bill of Rights applies to any person on U.S. soil. (That is a common misconception apparently but like many modern constitutions it refers to persons and not citizens). There is the gray area surrounding

Thank you for the correction!

Yes, the first amendment here does not seem to apply, except if the poster above, has something else in mind? That DOJ even considers going to court, hints that they have a strong case -- given how conservative the DOJ is to betting on a co

Checkups and preventative care are not there for fun. They save money as a whole and in the long run, as other commenters also note. Imagine everyone was disincentivized from doing a cancer-related checkup, get vaccinated, or check if they

The situation is worse for non-latin-alphabet based languages, especially if the alphabet is not ~20-30 letters. Some selected examples: https://www.branah.com/korean https://www.branah.com/japanese https:

Still it is worth thinking the effects of disclosing meta-data that a legal entity has collected about another entity (here an individual). Is it not abetting to disclose when you are away from your house and what alarm system you have to a

I don't think it is a good idea for the sanity of people to tell them to stay inside and have really good sound insulation. We have to remember that sound pollution is a health issue and impacts people's lives. I have my doubts ho

I agree. I wouldn't rush to draw any conclusions, as this paper changes the status quo. We can not say anything about the rarity of transmission events in the past really. This work is focused particularly on heteroplasmy -- it doesn&#

I think the issue is a bit more fundamental: Security is an afterthought. There are no repercussions, or gain or expected real punishment for not providing a secure solution. These hacker protection plans are just to tick off a box and sati

Two comments: i) The term reasonable, I wishfully think, covers this particular incident. I don't think the average family in Canada worries about kidnappings, robberies etc. ii) How are you expecting kids to grow, and what is the less

You pay for the people that are not insured, can or do not pay, and also for the profit margin.

Agree, it seems this is one area that inventing your own solution is tempting, yet people fail to realize the variety of cases that need to be supported and welded together. Same thing goes for IPs etc

No, by international law [1] (and U.S. law [2]) they are treaties [1]. U.S. is not the only country with the notion of ratification [3][5] (not a surprise). Generally, the U.S. distinguishes between "treaties", executive acts or a

Yes, establishing intent to memorize is near impossible. You would have to have something like written records (e.g. emails) stating the intent.

What you are forgetting here is that people and the market build houses with a short lifespan in mind. They could as easily build new houses with reinforced concrete. And if there was that much earthquake consideration you would see suppor
