While it is not quite possible to look into the heads of the operators, targeters, and the chain of command, the documents that have been publicly available for some time, as well as the actions of the allied governments paint a clear pictu

If it were so, if the public were aware of the reality at least in broad strokes, and if the media simply just didn't report on things everybody knew were going on... how would you explain the outcry after the Bataclan shooting that &q

I will always remember the smooth feel of an old SparcStation 20 I got in the late '00s. It was engineered so that hardware interrupts wouldn't get in each other's way. Regardless of the puny specs, the responsiveness was ama

You perceive sensory inputs within a 100ms window as occurring simultaneously. That does not mean that you cannot notice the difference between a 10ms latency and 50ms latency. Your may well perceive variations of latency, just not on a con

That's not a very useful way to look at it. (1) If Ericsson overall costs were just 4% bigger, you would be saying: "10000% of Ericsson profits came from Apple", (2) R&D that led to those patents likely had staggering cos

Considering Ericsson revenue/profit was on the order of 30/1.3 billion USD in 2014, and the iPhone only revenue will be somewhere between 100 and 150 billion for 2015 only and going up, this is great news for Ericsson.

Residents pay tax (insurance) into a common pot, and get universal healthcare. The government pitches in with contributions from the general budget. How is that not socialized healthcare?

Yep, you're right. An 802.11 client broadcasts the MAC address in every frame in plaintext, so a more straightforward approach would be to use `airodump-ng` to list the cams. The innocent bystander practical & legal concerns were p

In general, you may be right, but is this really what could be happening here — how can the fact that future colleagues consider the interviewees political views reactionary be used to set up any licit line of questioning?
