Depends on the tracking mechanisms employed. For example, using radar, the object you're tracking must be larger than the wavelength of the radar being used. Also note there is a difference between focused "tracking" and &q

Afghanistan combat veteran here. You've seen WAY too many movies. Discretion is everything. Any time we'd hit a compound, we would pore over the intelligence, assess whether this was a likely badguy, whether they were a key play

No great surprise. The only people still using Yahoo aren't very tech savvy and don't know about the data breach, plaintext passwords, etc.. My guess is Yahoo can get away with this and they know it.

> his life's efforts were largely futile Tell that to the guys he provided close air support for. I've been on the ground when it comes down. Years later I'm still thankful and it brings tears to my eyes.

That, and ride patents to a seat at the table as a "key stakeholder". Got a great idea? We love it! We'll take 40% of every unit sold. Good luck!

I was responding to scope of the statement: > So he sees everything they do as political as well. Obviously we have political views, but they're a only subset of religious views. By analogy, geometry exists and is a legitimate fiel

monocasa, HN won't let me reply to your next comment, but regarding: > a reflection of their religious principles or their political ones This is actually a common misunderstanding and what I'm trying to explain. "Religio

Not political. Religious. For those of us who are Christians, our politics are driven by our religion, not the other way around. The Heidelberg Catechism sums it up well: > Q. What is your only comfort in life and in death? > A. Tha

Your comment is essentially "the owners hold certain values I disagree with regarding sexuality, therefore I'm surprised their technical team is any good." I don't see how that follows.

Why not? Learn what it is to be courageous and loving, and decide now that if the situation arises you will do it.

Hard to say at this point. We talk a lot about controlling anger, conquering addictive tendencies, etc. but the real test is when they get out. Drugs are everything. I'd say 90% of these guys are in prison because they were addicte

This may have been true in the past, but times are changing, at least in Texas. In fact, I teach a class every week to 33 prisoners, inside the prison itself. Rehabilitation is absolutely the goal.

Step back and see the bigger picture. I think most of us think Infowars is a weird nuisance. But I was responding to the claim that political opinion should have to meet a pre-approved "minimum legitimacy requirement". If this

Sure, by the private individual. The problem is many things that were major moments in world history didn't pass the ruling-class's "minimum legitimacy requirement" at the time. Top-of-my-head examples: the Magna Carta

> there's little excuses Yikes that statement has a lot of moral overtones. Is it a good idea to use a Yubi? Arguably yes. Does one need to find "excuses" for not doing so? The vast majority of the time, no.

When I like it, it's called "influence". When I don't like it, it's called "manipulation". At least, this seems to be the way it's commonly used.
