The FDA and any oversight groups will protect their own by remaining silent and they'll get away with it. Nobody will be jailed. The people have the power but they are so dispersed, distracted and lulled into inaction by the corn and g

The Constitution of the United States guarantees a civilian controlled military. If the Commander in Chief is in office, then he is the last link on the chain. It's not up to unelected officials to determine what is a good call or not.

As much as I personally think the efforts of mega tech companies to intrude into every aspect of every user's life and the lives of those around them are repugnant and dystopian, I do think these will eventually make it mainstream. Con

I would like to see more of the "invisible web" showing up on the front page. As primarily tech people we should be more familiar with the older and wiser corners of the web and not just a slew of attention grabbing headlines. I h

Despite the age of this article, it is still relevant and fascinating. I often wondered how hard/easy it was to simply register an expired valuable domain. Now I know.

I instantly thought "Matrix" when I saw that one and I suspect it's because I never saw John Wick or many films like that since.

I had a ton of fun with this one! There is something sort of magic about these images. The satisfaction I felt when I saw a picture and instantly had a thought that turned out to be correct was really refreshing. It's not the same feel

Fair point. I think this is cared for as all hospitals have backup power supplies and those supplies must be relied on. Last time I was in the hospital I saw red power outlets in the wall. I asked the nurse and she told me the red ones are

Fascinating that there is a hand crank somewhere on the machine. However this example is a tiny bit off as the point of failure in all the cases they mention in the paper were external power. I was asking more about redundancies in the equi

Why 15? Why not 1,025? Adding complexity (more justices) to address complexity (more laws) is not going to help. The reason leftists like the authors of this article want more justices now is because Biden would appoint leftist justices and

You know I always knew that a tipped job always had a base pay that was much lower than minimum wage. However I didn't know that the portion payed by the employer was subsidized by tips! This is making me reflect on my own tipping tend

> At one point, DoorDash was using tips to subsidized [sic] wages for drivers, meaning employees wouldn’t earn more than their locked-in wages. This is unbelievably dishonest.
