The teeth. Yikes! But yeah, I remember having the rotary phone disassembled and touching the wires adjusting something when a ring came. Gave me enough of a jolt to remember.

What would this have to do with ICE? Isn’t that DHS?

They can’t be used for moving targets but for infrastructure they can be effective. At the cost of only a few artillery shells send 10 and maybe 3 will hit. Another advantage is because of simplicity and cost it allows quick iteration and a

Now imagine for the same $10k cost making a cruise missile, instead. This is close to what a Shahed is -- the estimate is $20k-$50k / unit, so close enough. This is bonkers. Countries can now afford for the same cost * to make not a 10

Wonder how developers working on profitable parts feel about it. I’ve been at an employer who burned their cash on vanity projects and hubris and turned around to people working on the bread and butter profitable parts and said “sorry hard

Truck was on a different frequency from the aircraft so they couldn’t even hear each others’ clearances. Also first time ATC told the truck to stop it wasn’t too clear who the message was addressed to. It’s a bit hard to hear “Truck1” there

> Their reaction? Genuine shock. They were actually concerned that developers were holding onto this position. They have to be playing dumb? I mean they are interacting with someone from the outside, and they have to suspect it will end

Would this open "interesting" possibilities for false flags: make one entity attack another entity you don't like, and now watch them fight each other.

I could see that, yeah.

I am not EV owner but that’s not how like my car trips. I can drive 4 hrs nonstop and then expect to “charge” my car in 5 minutes at the pump with a bathroom break, and be on the road. Sometimes we like a more leisurely drive, but it should

Wait, is this true? I would have imagined unless it’s about porting software or testing it, everyone would be forced to use Windows. If it is true, wonder what the proportion is then: 25%, 50%?

Sure but in most instances the system won’t change. Someone will usually define some reporting time period and some metrics to look at and agree when a lower threshold is reached that things start to look bad or alternatively, really good a

I always think for some reason that by now with all advancements in technology they'd eventually get to a point where they start measuring these things so going to doctor like that people might hear "your level were out of balance

Because of how performance targets are defined. If sales figures “fell” or didn’t grow at the expected rate it can be worse than having a few more points over next quarter.
