The current system relates bonus pay to a variety of measures. This new one introduces the game theory incentive of performing in this reverse auction. Under these new rules, what happens if every warrant officer enters the exact same number?
Seems to me that there are all sorts of possibilities with rogue DNS usage. For example, if your audience is the kind of person who’s comfortable adding your own DNS server, then run something like Technitium with fairly permissive access to change records.
Kavanaugh’s reasoning is that a wartime law, TWEA, can be congruent to a peacetime law, IEEPA. The rest of the court acknowledged that the President always had control of tariffs during war.
The college disability stuff sounds like small potatoes. At least, compared to Vietnam draft deferments. We used to have Gore and Kerry types, who volunteered for the infantry. Even with the lottery number 356, Trump ensured a medical deferment.
Moreover, NATO is justified to do whatever it takes to keep Russia from auctioning its stockpile. That means protecting it from internal collapse, not winning too decisively, even benefitting Putin when necessary. With START falling apart, Russia lost a tool that was buying some time.
Well the Forbes Top 1000 (which has a lower threshold of $3.8 B) is missing 30-200 wealthy but totally obscure people. That proportion is close to what HN might consider "smart".
For maybe 100 years, we’ve lived in an era of diminished hat importance. I, for one, don’t want to be caught hatless around any sharp-tongued re-enactors.
I think it might benefit from an explanation why your regression residuals differ from the government’s. For example, how do you treat cases which resulted in probation? When the sentence is over 60 months, do any effects maintain their significance?
As we know, these are not tax dollars saved. MDM, animal and human drug submissions are fee-based. Are those companies excited about their studies being processed this way? Are fees going down?
At this security conference, Zelenskyy was able to talk about the secrecy of the Anchorage meeting last August. Putin dominated that meeting; mostly without an interpreter. And there was no ceasefire, no progress from Europe’s point of view, so security observers must conclude that Russia prefers the status quo and directed Trump to do the same.
If the US Secretary of State is going to tell Europe about Russia, they reminded him that Spicy/Venomous Pepe memes have escaped.
Those are indeed nationalist overtones that work in Russia. Close Western observers don’t ignore Navalny’s early nationalist statements and marches. I wonder if it’s the easiest path out of obscurity nowadays.
Obviously this is different than Litvinenko. Someone smuggled synthetic venom into a prison in Russia. Was it a failure of Russian security, or a success?
No, this is a joint statement during the Munich Security Conference. Perhaps its timing is useful to remind Kremlin sympathizers about who they’ve chosen to bed.
I’m only aware of one data point: unlike comparable elections, the Republican won voters who did not participate in 2020. Sounds like you’ve seen other research?
The Russian invasion contains disproportionately more Sunni Muslims than the population, so there’s some sincerity in Al Jazeera covering it from that side.
And I’ve seen AJ covering Shia, especially outside Iran, without mentioning the politics of Iran.
One thing to keep in mind is that Sunni outside of KSA are not very supportive of the Saudi royal family. Whereas Shia outside of Iran have a coreligionist unity. That’s how I see AJs coverage.
I feel like there’s some propaganda serving both sides. A bomb which prevents Muslim funeral rites can be psychological warfare from Israel and also a story over-emphasized from those invested in Hamas to take the focus away from something else.
