It was Oliver Heaviside (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oliver_Heaviside) that rewrote Maxwell's original equations (20 of them in differential form) into the notation used today (4 of them in vector calculus form).
How about some penalties for their creation? If NSA is discovering or buying, someone else is creating them (even if unintentionally).
Otherwise corporations will be incentivized (even more than they are now) to pay minimal lip service to security - why bother investing beyond a token amount, enough to make PR claims when security inevitably fails - if there is effectively no penalty and secure programming eats into profits? Just shove all risk onto the legal system and government for investigation and clean up.
>What Trump is mandating with his EOs are a move back to judging people strictly by their merit, by their character.
Conservatives are OK with rolling everything back and hiding behind words, since right now, most people at the highest levels of power - that do the judging - are white men.
How else do you explain such "merit" based nominations like Hegseth for SecDef, Gaetz for Attorney General, etc. (Gaetz withdrew but getting nominated at all was ridiculous). And if Hegseth is qualified to lead the DoD, then so is anybody who ever served in the military at the rank of Major or higher.
>Firstly, Roe vs Wade was overturned in 2022 during the BIDEN term.
That timing is all about how long it takes a lawsuit to work through the system to reach a stacked court.... not so much who was President when it finally was resolved.
The sad truth is even if XYZ country "interfered" with a misinformation campaign... they didn't actually manipulate the votes. Enough US citizens voted for Trump.
They don't believe in climate change, want zero controls on guns, are generally anti-immigrant - even the legal immigrants are lied about e.g. Haitians in Springfield, don't believe women should have certain rights concerning their own healthcare, want to keep cutting taxes for the wealthy and corporations, etc.
They are impenetrable. Yes they'd claim I'm unwilling to compromise but we're talking about different starting points - I have to get them to accept certain actual real-world events and facts as true before starting a meaningful conversation.
Which is why the entire talking point of the Dems bringing illegals into the country to replace the electorate is a lie to enrage the base through racism. Many, possibly the majority, of immigrants coming into the US are very conservative.
I watched the victory speech. He promised three things (1) only four years of him in the White House, (2) appointing RFK to eliminate vaccines and gut the health care industry (3) end current wars, so basically give his boss
military control of Eastern Europe.
I don’t believe (1). The other two would mean our kids’ life expectancies just halved.
- Eliminating vaccines is a terrible idea, but public school vaccine requirements are state law in my state. RFK won't be touching them.
- Gutting the health care industry? That's not necessarily a bad thing. Wasteful health care administration (passing the buck) was something like 30% of health care costs pre-ACA, and health care is now 17.3% of GDP. Shedding 1/3 of health care costs would bring our health care expenses to the same ratio of GDP as the UK. Of course it would also cause an unemployment crisis...
Pre-ACA it was hard to near impossible to get healthcare with an existing condition. Additionally, most healthcare costs are later in life. My fear is shedding costs is going to equate to only covering people who are young and healthy. But hey, it'll be cheaper.
> Nineteen of those studies were considered to be high quality; of these, 18 reported an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children. The 18 studies, which include 3 prospective cohort studies and 15 cross-sectional studies, were conducted in 5 different countries. Forty-six of the 53 low-quality studies in children also found evidence of an inverse association between estimated fluoride exposure and IQ in children.

I'd be willing to bet that the amount of conservatives that fit your description are not enough to win an election. That description is only a subset of conservatives in my experience of being a conservative myself and living around many of them.
The evidence is likely simple deduction, as in asking "when was the last time this area was bombed" combined with the history of the airport (built for the military in 1943, later converted to civilian use) and also noting other unexploded bombs have been unearthed in the area.
For it NOT to be a WW2 bomb would mean somebody sneaking in another bomb and paving it under the runway without being noticed.
There is a perfectly plausible alternative. A bomb fell off a plane after the war. This happens from time to time and has even happened with a nuclear bomb!
Yes, and it results in a huge amount of paperwork. You can't just randomly show up at your destination missing a bomb - especially during peacetime. They'll be combing over every part of your flight path to find it.
It could've also been intentionally buried there by bored soldiers, or placed there by airport maintenance people as a prank, or ended up there due to a freak teleporter accident. Maybe it was even put there by Godzilla. Maybe the Infinite Improbability Drive spontaneously materialized it, together with a bowl of petunias.
If you find a bomb in an area which is known to have been bombed, without any evidence to the contrary it is pretty safe to assume it's there due to the bombing.
That's the only one I know of at my bank that's mobile only. (And for how frequently I deposit checks, going to an ATM wouldn't be a big deal.) I realize other banks may have more de-featured web sites.
>By introducing a profit maximisation goal you (supposedly) create a more efficient operation.
Yes but one way that happens is by ignoring unprofitable customers. That's great if you are a car dealership and sell higher end cars to wealthier people or run a botique grocery store with fancy all-organic produce, but terrible if you are (for example) trying to provide healthcare or education and decide that the profit margins aren't high enough for you to serve various segments of the population.
