"Real" military applications, perhaps not. "Pseudo-military" operations, i.e. in our rapidly militarizing civilian police forces, perhaps not so far off.

God this is awful. Just a matter of time before these beasts are used to serve search warrants, deal with "difficult" protests, etc.

Yeah. The Legacy and Opinions in Poland sections are particularly interesting.

Can you USE MORE CAPITAL LETTERS, please? That would MAKE YOUR POINT MUCH MORE CREDIBLE, you know.

To be fair to the 1962 NASA, they did say "women", not "girls." It's still blatant sexism, but there's need to hyperbolize. Unless of course all you care about is generating linkbait.

Umm, no. You're both changing the subject, and baiting me with words / opinions that aren't mine.

Apparently Morales didn't have any fuel so he put on a little show play to get some attention. Apparently you need to do some basic research into the circumstances regarding the harassment of the Bolivian presidential flight.

Snowden is running away from having to take responsibility for his actions. Umm, "intelligently sidestepping a justice system known for its egregious disregard for due process in cases similar to his, as amply demonstrated by the Man

"Legal" in the sense that it's constitutionally protected. In theory. "Illegal" in the sense that doing so no doubt exposes you to tracking and other forms of extrajudicial government abuse.

Well, the way Norvig explains it in his IAQ[1], in the context of the "missing" ++x and x++, operators, there's a certain design philosophy in Python that seeks to separate statements and expressions. Since the ternary op rep

Couple of tips, bro: (1) Trying hanging out with women, not girls, for a change. (2) And forget "dating" in the hopelessly broken American sense. And finally: (3) it's interesting that basically all of the analogies he draws

#7 If you think the way the military works is ridiculous, I understand, but don't assume that you know better. The military exists to kill people and break things not further social agendas (right or wrong). If killing people and bre

No, that's not what I'm saying. And this doesn't seem to be a very effective line of discussion, either.

When you marry, you covenant to society that you will make yourself compatible with your spouse, even when it's difficult to do so, [...] That's fine for you. Other people have different priorities in their lives. And elevatin

It wasn't the banks walls he was accused of writing on; it was the sidewalks out in front.

It's the fact that he's being threatened with 13 years that's significant. Oh, and the fact some stuffed shirt from a major bank can basically order the local police department to go and arrest this guy. Like you or I migh

The thesis that porn worsens your sexual taste is probably the foundation for a lot of ideological campaigns... Not saying it's proven -- but there's nothing terribly ideological about it either. Kind of like listening to bad mu

Yeah. Also disappointing is the tendency to be completely oblivious (it would seem) to the difference between correlation and causality. For example: At the 2003 American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers meeting, two-thirds of lawyers repo

It's also not necessarily such a bad thing -- i.e. using porn (or alcohol, pot, or anti-depressants; or over-eating, or compulsive shopping) to get through the rough spots in one's dating cycle. Mind you, I'm not saying it&#x

Another interesting tidbit: At Brigham Young University in 2007, 21 percent of male college students reported watching porn "every day or almost every day."
