The Arctic will be the battleground and trade route of the future as it warms. Being associated with the US is preferable to the other options (Russia, China most likely). There won't be an option of the status quo.

Oh gimme a break. That's one of the largest benefits to COFA and is heavily used by the Marshallese. Greenland on its own is not a first world country - there simply isn't enough population/work and it's a hard existence

Lol I realize this is tongue in cheek but Denmark has no ability to administer or protect anything that far away. Nor are those places seeking independence. But hey, maybe I'm wrong and the Danes will successfully integrate a large gro

I think it even makes sense if it were pursued in a different way. Greenland is looking for full independence but can't really hack it financially without aid. I think the COFA (Compact of Free Association) model that we have with Pala

I suppose this is the move if you're looking to foreclose all possible competing usages. Kudos for using correct terminology as it is no longer Open Source. However, I still believe AGPL is a better alternative in most cases and functi

This is indeed a vexing issue. I feel it often. It's this feeling that leads to resume-driven development which I really work hard to avoid.

Will Prowse has been around a while now and this is the first time I'm seeing a critique of his safety habits. Please elaborate as he's widely respected in the solar/storage community.

Shame you've been downvoted. Regarding federal agencies, the Constitution indeed means what it says when it says "The executive Power shall be vested in a President of the United States of America." If some agency can wield e

The Republican party of 2008 bears little resemblance to the one of 2025, especially on economic issues. Many in the party have changed their views over the last decade+ on industrial policy and the libertarian wing of the party has very li

Wow I'm surprised - I based my message of the manual on their site which pretty clearly shows a detachable antenna and says nothing about time limits. I wonder if they received something from the FCC saying they can't market a GMR

There is no amount of time that guarantees you won't interfere with another user on a shared channel without time division. Any protocol used has to account for it no matter what. But discussion of that is irrelevant because the regula

While I highly doubt you'd ever get in trouble, data transmissions on GMRS are severely restricted by the FCC. You obviously need the license (though it's just a fee and covers your whole family). In any case, I'm pretty sure

Honest question: how would you know if companies stopped using the product as a result of this change? Presumably the only ones you'd hear from are ones that managed to get through the process far enough to complain about procurement (

Hah - Legal at my company wouldn't respond to this by forcing us to pay. They'd take one look at that bizarre EULA and tell us to stop using the product entirely. I suspect this is what will happen in most cases. Perhaps that&#x27

They don't. This guy is talking out of his ass. They don't have the same funding streams (NSA falls under DoD for example) or missions. Hell, several IC members are military organizations and definitely do not fall under CIA in an

Dead wrong on Git, not to mention the general, inherent issues with locking your ability to freely share your data behind the monthly plans of cloud vendors. No, local sync isn't a replacement as it's often in a non-free binary fo

In a professional setting, I agree 100%, no notes. Where LLMs have helped me the most are actually side projects. There, writing the code is absolutely the bottleneck - I literally can't (or perhaps won't is more truthful) allocat

Oh I read it, and I disagree with your analysis. Sotomayor makes some decent points in favor of nationwide injunctions when she deigns to engage in legal arguments, but the case against them is very compelling. The textual case is pretty mu

Yeah you can certainly criticize Thomas's legal theories, but his interpretation is logically consistent and he sticks to it even to the point of frequently solo dissenting. It's important to read his stuff too because it seems to

Justice Jackson's dissent is honestly one of the most embarrassing things I've read from the Court and I've been reading most every opinion for years now. Heavy on the pathos, completely devoid of cogent legal theory. Kinda r
