The problem is, these are fairly low income types of places. If you have trailer parks in the woods, they're going to burn. If you have retirement villages, they're going to burn.
Rich people's estates on the same type of land will have some fire protection; fire breaks, sprinkler systems that can wet down an area and slow the spread of the fire; this lowers the fire intensity in the immediate area, even though it doesn't stop the fire. This, combined with rooftop sprinklers, can save buildings.
There isn't enough room between the structures in the pictures to build any sort of fire protection, or to do any sort of controlled burn. A simple home fire would burn down the whole neighborhood if not for firefighters!
When you're looking for some thing, and you don't know if you find it or not, then you either found it, or were unable to find it.
For example, I dig a hole in the ground hoping to find a dinosaur bone; I either found it, or didn't find it. And I don't know if there are any dinosaur bones nearby. But if I dig up the whole valley, and sift all the dirt down to bedrock, then I know (with some high degree of certainty below infinity) that there are no dinosaur bones in the dirt layer of that valley.
They looked at 17 studies covering close to 37 million people. They weren't simply "unable to find" a link; they found that any such link is likely smaller than some tiny value. (while still more than 1/infinity)
And note that doesn't mean that sleep isn't important to health; it just means that insomnia itself is not a risk factor for death. Is insomnia simply lack of sleep? No.
They definitely track which devices are owned by foreigners, and let foreigners use foreign VPNs, but I think last year they started turning off access for Chinese-owned devices. It would seem to be unwise to be the owner of a device that gets restricted.
The problem is already solved, by existing deployed layers.
Transparent caching by third parties is a happy idea with flowers and chirping birds, but in practice you gotta wear a condom, er, something something TLS.
The reality is that you need SSL just to prevent content from being transparently altered en-route; it is not only for secret content, but just for knowing what the content actually was!
That would turn it into a pre-sale scheme that would only be open to companies that don't actually need the help, and could just advertise their new product normally, and sell or pre-sell it normally.
The whole point of crowdfunding, the part that makes it different than "shopping" is that the money is given in advance to fund the making of the product.
You might have an childish and absurd concept of how business works in China, and how Chinese companies get started and get positioned in the marketplace. Also, how the internet works in China.
I'll give you a hint: The Great Firewall is not stateless.
...that in the town square where people talk and post notices, you can mostly avoid the trolls. Local governments have no shortage of laws dictating what you can say, where and when.
Another good reason not to visit Foreignplace to meet the haters; they don't even understand Freezepeach!
The user has to choose a sucky or unknown developer for that stuff to happen.
If the user took responsibility for their electronic territory, they wouldn't be able to blame the developer; they wouldn't be using the sucky code, so they don't have any accusation against the developer!
"Norway has determined that Russia was responsible for jamming GPS signals in the Kola Peninsula..."
Er, has anyone realised that the Kola Peninsula lies wholly inside Russia?
It is called "Continental English," you can't parse the grammar or syntax that precisely. You don't uncover subtleties that way, you only lose the thread.
Ha. Actually I'm a little surprised they divulged they had that capability.
All of the capabilities that would in danger of being revealed would be how NATO responds to it. That's the part that isn't easy to just calculate based on signal propagation. Stuff that is easily calculated isn't the stuff you keep secret. Operational responses cannot be calculated without gathering intelligence. For example, by turning the jammers on at a time when NATO units would be trying hard to communicate and are in fact practicing their operational responses...
Not only is the signal really weak, but you generally need to talk to a bunch of different satellites at the same time. You'd need a giant apparatus with hundreds of shielded antennas pointing different directions, just to avoid having to make each shield move to track a satellite.
Military systems instead use a bunch of other fancy techniques with encrypted signals and backup navigation methods. GPS is useful, but not so useful that you want every navigation system to weigh 2 tons.

This seems a lot more likely, since if you drink the same amount of coffee consistently every day it doesn't have much of a stimulative effect.
For that reason, I would expect people who use it as a stimulant to have much lower total consumption.
Who still runs Linux on Intel CPUs?
Thinkpad owners.
OTOH, CentOS is on 3.x kernels still anyways.
pre-USADA Linus was the GOAT, like Ken Shamrock with faster fingers.
Funding secured.
A spectre of a deal!
That isn't how numbers work.

I agree, it only 99% benefits large business, there is a small window for a small business to benefit too.
I don't understand why Americans keep tolerating Facebook.
Freedom fries and freeze peach. Duh.
With nuts.

Nope. More standards is not what we need.

They have a local business entity that operates in the UK.
Do we really need SSL on everything?

I wouldn't go either - sitting around, looking like a dick.
It's Zuckerberg: he looks like a dick whatever he does. So I guess it's the sitting around he objects to?
Now, now, he may be the anti-Christ, and an evil fuckhead besides, but lets not resort to body-shaming.
Yeah, if they wanted me to sit through that nonsense they'd have to grant me a fancy title first.
I'll bet if they named Zucky Lord Protector he'd show up right away.
While I agree. it is off topic.
The media talking as if it is normal for US business owners to travel overseas to meet with haters is itself disinformation.
Of course "social media" is a hindrance to society, and of course Whathisface isn't going to show up at Foreignplace.
I blame the user for all that stuff.

What if the jammers cost $1 each (made in China) and an unguided mortar shell costs $400?
Now, add in the differences in mass and volume, and you might get a picture of what it would take.
Oh, and a guided mortar costs $60k.
You could probably do it cheaper if you had an old car stereo and a microwave oven to use for parts.

You don't really need the communications for that; as the smaller vessel, it is expected to get out of the way.
