The whole list is worthy of review, frankly. I wonder how long it has been since each of our current sc justices has actually read it.

If you're not too concerned about the regularity of your results, you can intertwine the two activities pretty seamlessly

. . . when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security. Something to mull on today.

Anyway, the great irony is I'm shouting this into the void, where nobody's gonna hear it. Unless I'm already Interesting.

The fun thing is you don't get to know how Interesting you are. So if you think you may ever lead an Interesting life, you need to be taking these precautions already.

Math is some really fantastic stuff. It makes remotely accessible microphones and cameras even more dangerous than you think. If a state-level actor has decided that you are capital-I Interesting, don't roll the dice for your OTPs with your phone or Amazon Echo in the room.

If the unencrypted text of your message touches a computer, you should consider that it can be seen by a sufficiently motivated and technologically advanced threat. That's the obvious thing. But today, even avoiding that is insufficient.

If there is someone you think you may need to communicate securely with in the future, now is a good time to learn how to do that together. It is fairly straightforward, but there are no shortcuts.

Honestly, the sound guy kinda did him dirty during the debate. There was a pretty huge volume differential that didn't need to exist, and contributed to the feebleness narrative.

Good pitch for expanding the court - obviously they're gonna need some help, they already can't get through their caseload in a timely fashion.

Totally valid considerations that sane people would look at and say, "yeah, that's not a great idea, maybe let's not do that." The challenge being, of course, this is America; we'll do the dumb thing first and sort it out with congressional hearings later *after* people get hurt and it doesn't work.

Yeah, gunning from a lightweight, aerial platform is rough. Hard enough in a boat pushing against water! Dropped explosives are well-demonstrated by Ukraine, though, and small rockets seem feasible-ish, so I could see it turning into "eh, just flash-bang/tear-gas 'em til officer Johnson gets there"

As I understand it, the idea is that if you can't do an historically accurate restoration, you make the non-original bits visually distinct... but it sure is ugly as sin, in this case.

It's a pretty neat system! The falling bit is much easier to calculate than the rocketing up from a imprecisely-located, bobbing wet platform bit, so it simplifies things a lot to just be able to kinda throw away all that garbage and start at the top of your now inertial trajectory.
