Obvious prima facie. If we don't agree on this we don't inhabit the same intellectual universe. Maybe your issue isn't the claim that the editorial slant is anti-white, but with my use of the term propaganda? Don't take

You know what? I'm glad you asked because I actually can't. Donald E. Graham is apparently not Jewish. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_E._Graham So that was definitely a bit of embarrassing, misremembere

It's as though nobody remembers the Syrian ambulance boy who seemed to hit every single Western publication at once. Or the fawning PR pieces for the "White Helmets." The insinuation that Forbes is not part of the propaganda

The gp isn't expressing fear, but annoyance. As you well know but choose to misrepresent. You are a nuisance. Your comment reminds me of a two year old's reaction to being asked to stop running around screaming.

Auditing, perhaps? If someone manages to enter on a stolen passport I'm sure they'd like to be able to go back and see what image was captured and why the system returned a false positive.

Engineering is fundamentally about tradeoffs because you have multiple objectives (e.g. high performance and loose coupling) and it's not possible to be optimal in all of them simultaneously. However, it is easily possible for a poor d

That is only what you are signaling to Leftist ideologues who take any departure from Social Justice doctrine as an excuse to construct straw man caricatures. And that's OK, because these people are toxic.

There are essential comms problems that will face any unmanned system that tries to take over the F-35's role. In the absence of a solution that is extremely low latency, immune to interference, and undetectable as radiated emission, y

For what it's worth, the F-22 has a similar system. Perhaps it's not such a problem because the aircraft is significantly larger. I don't know why the cannon door issue is taking so long to rectify but I can guess: Whoever is

It's very likely to be down to differences in temperament, although I don't think it's self-assurance precisely. Typically, men are more driven to compete for status and place their career at the center of their lives, while

After thinking it over a bit, I'm going to take the other side of the bet. We agree that power consumption is a limiting factor no matter what. In my imagined system, only something on the order of 1W would be delivered to the glasses.

What do you think about solving this with wireless power transfer? There has been some promising research recently into extending the range of resonant inductive coupling. It's nobody's ideal, but a clip-on/necklace style pow

I'd expect Snapchat users to discuss politics on the platform. I wouldn't necessarily expect Snapchat to expend their own resources to explicitly push an issue-driven political agenda that is unrelated to their own line of busines

The other employees in his business were donating the services of the business to their pet political causes. Saliterman was trying to make money for the shareholders. It's an advertising business: that means everyone pays. If Snapchat

I disagree that we have "competing wikipedia definitions," I don't find that argument convincing and think you're just refusing to admit to being mistaken about what a word means. I hope that's not too sharp of a ba

I guess I'm using the Wikipedia definition of censorship which diverges from yours somewhat. To quote, because it's short: Censorship is the suppression of free speech, public communication or other information which may be consi

Volume, I doubt it. Every small town Fudd I ever met had an AOL account. The difference is that all this activity is now visible to the liberal intelligentsia. To your second point, that's just nonsense.

I expected the cry of false dichotomy. Here's the thing: all simplifications are inaccurate because they involve a loss of fidelity. Simplifications that are tolerably inaccurate but useful are the basis of clear thinking. When you res

This is different from what 60 year olds were doing with e-mail a decade ago in what way, exactly? As someone who grew up around AM radio and gun show culture, the sudden pearl-clutching is amusing, but also disturbing since it's so co
