That actually is the point. The advice about grenades is a special case of a more general bit of advice about all explosives. Recruits/newbies tend to want to see the explosions they make, but small devices are usually set to explode too close to the operator for safe viewing. Thus "if you can see the explosion, the explosion can see you."
Interesting point.
As my Drill Instructors used to say: "if you can see the grenade, the grenade can see you." Now, getting the grenade to send streaming video back to the Marine who threw it, that's the hard part.

The body of memnock's post was exactly six words long, and you couldn't be bothered to read _all_ of them? So the rest of us are to judge memnock's meaning based on your interpretation, not on what memnock actually wrote? I don't think that memnock pretended to say anything that memnock did not actually say. You, on the other hand, are pretending to know what memnock "really" said . . .

For those who take Driver's Ed. in MN, it's pretty well covered -- or at least it was in 1980. If you want the right pilot a 1-ton-plus missile through populated areas, you give up the right to hide your intoxication.
IANAL, but in Minnesota one "implies consent" to testing when signing the driver's license application -- and drivers from out of state are subject to the same law when driving in Minnesota. One can refuse testing (thereby violating the "implied consent") but then the license is revoked for a year.
Darn, forgot about the chains reference; although the AC does seem to wear the chains of ignorance a bit lightly.
But there are other Goddards as well . . . and although Dr. Robert Goddard may not have a "law" attributed to him, he did cause many "whooshing" noises in the course of his work.
I'm sure there are a lot of things that Schrodinger would like, but the rest of us would just like for him to get on with it and make up his damn mind already.
Read Slashdot much? Or perhaps you have a high opinion of the GNAA trolls?
McCarthy knew he was lying, so spare me the "hero" talk.
His sudden physical deterioration upon being exposed as a fraud was probably not a coincidence; nor was it likely the result of accumulated low self-esteem during McCarthy's "get-em Joe!" glory days. If you want to argue that deep depression after his fall caused extremely self-destructive behavior, well then that was my point, wasn't it?
McCarthy was an outcast in the Senate, but he at least got to keep his seat -- which is not a particularly "shitty" circumstance to find oneself in.

". . . the design is not final."
Wow, something that's scheduled 13-14 months out isn't final? Amazing!

"C++ for everything. All the other languages start off with it after all."
Examples: Fortran, Lisp, C.....
So how do the lawbooks define a "limited network"?
How is Limewire a "limited network" as opposed to a venue for distribution "to the public"?

"How often did you tell your boss it takes 2 hours even though you knew it would take 2 minutes so you can slack off?"
Not often enough to offset all the times he has given me 2-hour tasks and expected results inside of 2 minutes.
Right now Verizon has exclusive rights to the Pre.

Correction:
You have to refuse the breathalyzer and the blood test for the penalty to kick in.
Minnesota's implied consent law carries a breathalyzer refusal penalty of an automatic 12 month driver's license revocation.

No, Goddard's law -- WHOOSH!

McCain was so disliked that Ann Coulter went so far as to say that she would support Hillary if McCain got nominated.
I prefer to call it "Star Trek: Nematode".
Somehow it just feels right.

Interesting that you mention Firefly.
Anyone remember last year's hour-long special "What The Frack Is Up With BSG?"
In it Joss Whedon observed that the BSG writers and producers "got it" that "science fiction is a setting, not a story."
If you have to ask, you can't run it.
Yes.

"paid dearly" "hero"
If he was a true hero then he would have been proud of himself;
instead he was so embarrassed that he drank himself to death.
A man should be proud of the things he does because he does good things;
not because he does bad things while claiming them to be good.
