  1. Re:Oh Boy; Now Common Core for Police ... on Police Training Lacks Scientific Input · · Score: 1

    If that were true, GOP is perfectly welcome to suggest morphing ACA into Romneycare instead of spending all that effort to kill it outright. (If I remember correctly, they bashed Romneycare as a nation-wide solution also.)

    The differences are relatively minor, anyhow.

    GOP has suggested allowing people shop for care "out of state", but that's impinging on state's rights, something GOP is usually for.

    States can and often do allow outside HC firms now, but usually with contingencies.

  2. Re:It's a union thing on Police Training Lacks Scientific Input · · Score: 1

    We do need unions to give employees a voice and some degree of influence. If deescalation creates more injuries and deaths, obviously the "cop unions" should be concerned. Perhaps they need more hazard pay if they take on more risk. It's a dangerous job, and making it yet more dangerous seems to trigger the fair question of compensation for risk.

    So knowing how you compare to the rest of the country is bad? Why not learn from other State's experiences and data? Is being independent so important that you accept being independently stupid? I'd call that War on Civilization. Cavemen were quite free; no regulations; but died young.

    After 2 or 3 swipe-and-tinkers it just may end up a really good plane.

  5. Re:Jamming signals is the future on F-35 Might Be Outperformed By Fourth-Generation Fighters · · Score: 2

    It's hard to jam every frequency, short of EMP weapons, which only affect stuff for a limited time, and your own fighters.

    But drones may require more autonomous fighting when bandwidth is limited by jamming. In other words, AI. Sky Net :-)

    That is, more than two F-35s were lost for each Su-35 shot down

    Just buy some Su's. We buy everything else from China.

  7. Drones on F-35 Might Be Outperformed By Fourth-Generation Fighters · · Score: 4, Insightful

    The future's probably in souped-up drones anyhow. You don't have to worry about pilot safety etc. and can gamble more in a dog-fight. Manned planes will not go away, but will become a niche.

    Let me make this clear; I do believe she's a political gamer who dances on the border of the law, but so is every other politician out there. Honest politicians can't compete in a sound-bite world. It's slime-bag versus slime-bag.

    Declaring her a criminal without presenting any qualifications for making such legal judgements, nor giving details of legal reasoning using actual quoted laws should be considered below the standards of Slashdot and they should not have received the mod-points they did. If they had done either, I may not have complained so intensely.
