Not sure that this source is entirely credible. There is no link to the documents or to the original journalistic source. I also find it hard to believe that the CIA couldn't spoof a new tail number or just buy a new jet if they really

Thanks for posting this. Perhaps I will have to screw up my courage and try to do the firmware upgrade and go to twelve cores. If anyone knows a really good source for a tray swap please post here.

This is a very real problem. I am still running an early 2009 Mac Pro that is slowly beginning to resemble the 1970 Mustang Mach 1 I drove in high school. I have replaced the original graphics cards with an upgraded unit to get GPU support

Generous return policies in the US have historically been significantly more prevalent than the author states. Stores like Nordstrom have accepted anything a customer would return up to and including tires which the do not and have never so

Really hard to say with Secret Service where and what they are carrying. Likely a handgun strong side carry on the waist but also perhaps a PDW like an MP5 or equivalent in its most concealable iteration under the arm on the weak side. The

This is not a new phenomenon. In the law enforcement community it has been well recognized for many years that people who carried concealed weapons will often exhibit reduced arm swing on the gun side. The habit is driven by two issues. The

When I was a theatre student a thousand years ago my teachers used to say every character you play feels like they have the gods on their side. Bad guys (with the possible exception of Iago) generally don't go around thinking "tod

Doctors are very good at keeping tabs on earnings of others but have no limits on the estimates of their own value. We in turned are conditioned to respect doctors as the vessels which carry the whole of healthcare. Nothing could be further

I seem to detect the familiar odor of negative PR wafting over this entire series of articles. The New Yorker has one of the most famously rigorous fact checking policies in journalism. Things rarely ever slip past them. Companies like Ques

I take cabs and cars everyday in Manhattan. It is as hard or harder to get a yellow cab than it has been in the 25 years I have lived in the city. My routine goes like this; if I can't get a cab in 10 minutes, I get an Uber. I end up t

Insane is probably not a useful word in this context. Is it possible that you are suffering from an illness? Of course it is. The internet is not the place to seek a diagnosis. Make an appointment with your primary care provider or a qualif

Amazon can't even effectively manage their second tier delivery vendors like Lasership in NYC. They dump packages in unsecured areas (I had one stolen last week). They scan packages as delivered to make their SLA with Amazon and then d

I was being a bit facetious but I was making the point that the distortions introduced by photo manipulation may not truly allow one to make the extrapolations about height the author alludes too. But as I say, my intended tone was tongue i

I am not much of a mathematician but I know a little about art and photography. Generally this piece was well written and I don't doubt a lot of it. Two comments though: Using pictures of swimsuit models is a potentially deeply flawed

I wonder why the flagship department stores seem to have perished in the USA but not as much in Europe. Of course Harrods comes to mind. KaDeWe in Berlin is an amazing store the recalls and even surpasses the main Marshall Fields in Chicago

I am probably less technical than most of you but the upside of this technology (at the point it is real world ready) might be producing what I would call a RAW file that is RAW(ER). By that I mean the file would simply contain a wider rang

Sure about that? Look at the five year survival rates for innovative treatments. Granted not all of them and not every time, but to generalize to "months" is a gross mis-characterization not borne out by a thorough review of the l

I can't argue with any of the technical data in this article which is clearly well researched. There is however some important nuance that is missing. Color theory is a fractal and the deeper you go the more convolutions you find. Moti

It is true that in the military, much shooting is done in semi-auto mode. That said there is a huge difference in the volume of fire that can be generated in full auto vs. semi-auto. Companies like Surefire are now building 100 round magazi
