Ain't that new, the various...INT acronyms have been around for over 65 years. Although not so far back I remember when even some of the derivative...INT terms were classified in themselves. (At least I think I remember, memory getting hazy.)
The first episode of Dr. Who's "Enemy of the World" (one of the recovered "Lost" episodes of Dr. Who 1964?) had a ride in a helicopter. The license plaque behind the pilot's seat said 2018.
The arch-enemy of that film was a guy nicknamed "The Salamander". His plan to take over the earth involved dicking with the weather, including earthquakes. Whenever a region suffered from one of his manufactured disasters, he would take over with a corporate bailout.
Why even bother with such requests nowadays. It should just be easier to hack. Or is it smaller governments lack the budget? Or for a small fee they should get a data feed from NSA!
When artillery were first used by nation states, they were also hired out to contractors. (Of course when captured they weren't given the honors of war due soldiers, they were slaughtered. That was the impetus to incorporate them into their respective armies.)
I actually did "not renew" last month, (and the month before that, the renewal letters didn't stop).
Climate change coverage was only one aspect of my motivation. It is the simple lack of "geography" in the magazine. They don't do geography anymore. Rather it became the "Social Cause of the Month Club" magazine.
By the way, my degree is a B.A. in Geography. I may say something in the "Do Tech Firms Really Want Liiberal Arts Majors" article this same day. (May not apply in New York where Geography is a science.)

Remember when all nukes were "unconventional"? I guessed we missed the invite to the first annual nuke convention.
It probably didn't have a catchy name like "Nuke Expo" or "Nukecon".
Is not this a computer forum? Insofar we are computer geeks?
If so, our recommendation should be dimensions for fourteen RACK UNITS. And that leaves the dilemma of whether or not they are 19 or 23 inch racks.

There is an old History professor's joke about the Anarchist Brigades during the Spanish Civil War.
"They were great fighters, but suffered from a lack of organization."

First thing I also thought when I saw the thread. Kudos. Now all we have to work on are the TSA baggage checks.
IMDb entry germane.
He should be the one taking care of Mongo's databases!
Shades of the movie "Brazil" !
Over which machine did the clerk hit the cockroach?
Apollo 18.
Bad movie but I couldn't resist.
Remember this old SPI game? Journey to the center of the map and collect "Wisdom Chits" pick up the "X" wisdom chit and you go hostile!
Does this mean they'll spin off THAT acquisition and bring back a simple list-serv?
It's called taxes.
Moses (mentioned earlier above), Pharaoh, and Noah.
Noah was a invitation only event.
Pharaoh was unsuccessful versus Moses.
To his credit, Pharaoh only sent his army.
According to the story it is bound to happen sometime!
When I submitted the article, it was about inventing RELAY on BITNET. Not BITNET itself. Did not mean to confuse.
The game brings back memories. What if NASA made a bunch of them, would that make a fleet?

There is nothing new here.
B.A. in Geography. Been working on the HP3000 for 31 years. But I had an A.S. in "Data Processing"* to back it up.
* The following year they renamed the degree to Computer Science, who'd know where I would be now if I continued studies for another year.

The middlemen software adds to the price, so yes I actually do see the irony. (Unless you were sarcastic, then we are in agreement.)

Did not Heinlein write about techies vs. management in The Roads Must Roll?
