Last weekend I was sitting in a car while my son who needs hours to get his license was driving. We were in the middle of nowhere in Ohio with nothing but cornfields around us. On my iPad, I was watching real-time 1080p stream of my other s

As usual with security discussions, one needs to start from analyzing security threats and attack vectors. Is a simple to memorize and likely multi-use password is a bigger security threat than a unique, hard to guess passwords in a file st

I have a cheap (about $20-25 a couple years ago) sensor from Amazon in my plane. It calibrates itself when I turn it on and I check it works on the ground before every flight - open the window after starting the engine and see co2 going up

Just to clarify, this is an instrument flight training device, not a primary trainer. The benefit of moving the trainer as pilot moves controls is to recreate similar illusions to the ones found when flying in instrument conditions and teac

I assume that Copilot uses open source projects on GitHub to “learn” what to suggest. Some of these projects might be under, say, GPL v3. A developer uses Copilot for a commercial project and Copilot insert a complete function from a GPL v3

I can copy/paste the Comey’s quote to apply it to the case of the NSA employee from the article. BTW, in Clinton’s case there is a clear effort to go around FOIA so you can call it obstruction of public justice if you want.

Spatial disorientation occurs in the IMC conditions without visual reference to the natural horizon: inside clouds, pitch black night over the water (e.g. Kennedy 1999), etc. Pilots specifically train to fly in these conditions (IFR rating)

So again, you admit that Hillary broke the law but JD “read the mind” of Mr President and just let her off the hook. Just for the record, compare this with other case (e.g. Flynn) where JD failed to “read the mind” and pushed all the federa

So sounds like you agree with me that Hillary did indeed break the law but you argument is that we need to understand "realpolitik" on why she can not be prosecuted. I guess I strongly disagree. BTW, you other argument is that Mr

This is somewhat a change of the arguments from your side I think. But let’s discuss this topic as well. US system is not an absolute monarchy and we have checks and balances in place “to tie the hands of the President or his advisors” not

President’s pardons are part of the presidents powers as defined by laws. I would have no problem if Mr President pardoned Hillary for her misuse of classified information, etc. This is not ethical from my pov but it is legal. Edit: I would

You can also continue along the same lines: “At the cabinet level, accepting bribes is a political question, not a legal one” “At the family of the president level, accepting bribes is a political question, not a legal one” … Just wonder, w

Many topics so let’s break them one by one. “ I see nothing in there specifically binding an acting Secretary of State, …” Section 3.1 from EO 13526 describes the rules for declassification for US government. There are no exclusions for Cab
