If that’s true, and I sincerely hope you are right, that changes my perspective—so, thank you. Is there a good resource to learn more on that you’d recommend?

Love this approach and use it often, usually with a Go backend. Blazing fast, simple, respects the way the web is supposed to work. Really nice touch using the CSS transitions.

"Good PM, Bad PM" from back in the day at Netscape. Recreated and posted on a16z's site by Ben Horowitz.

Wow. What an absolutely stupid policy! So TSA thinks a cursory visual glance is somehow increasing security when every single carry bag is already digitally imaged. Pure security theater. I cannot believe this is real.

You are kidding right? "Right not carpet bombing exactly but multiple days now of bombing a country that has never attacked us with their military." Iran conducted thousands of attack against US and coalition forces in Iraq with IEDs made in Iran.

Nobody is carpet bombing. Baseless claim.

And what is your association to speak about US MIL morale may ask?

Love DaisyUI & Tailwind. Building 5 systems with it now at work. We are using Ho for the backend with mostly SSR views with some HTMx interactive islands.

And the same for Linux boxes on Azure - they dominate Windows servers by a huge margin.

Threats are not to civilian aircraft. If conflict occurs areas would become restricted.

The FAA did warn about military ops in the area. Good question; not sure they issued a NOTAM.

Not sure I’d call crossing traffic “within a few miles” a near-miss. Even at full cruising speed of 500-600MPH (less because the JetBlue was still on a climb) the civilian aircraft would cover a mile in 6-7 seconds, so we are talking 18 to 24 seconds to close 3-4 miles.

Also, it a common for military aircraft to not have a transponder on, especially in the vicinity of threats. Without a transponder the civilian aircraft TCAS/ACAS would not warn about traffic.

Not sure how far off the coast of Venezuela this occurred, but there are some very real SAM threats the Air Force aircraft would need to worry about.

ABC News now reporting:

New details emerged Wednesday about the second strike by the U.S. military on an alleged boat on Sept. 2 that killed two survivors, according to a source familiar with the incident.

The two survivors climbed back onto the boat after the initial strike, the source said.

They were believed to be potentially in communication with others in the vicinity and were salvaging some of the drugs that had been the boat’s cargo, the source said, and because of these actions were determined to be "still in the fight" and considered to be valid targets.

God no I am not saying people floating are fleeing; not even the slightest. I was, however, pointing out events from the past and how post-strike targets were often finished in counterterrorism strikes from land wars. This was not a matter of giving no quarter but one of eliminating threats. The cartels have been designated as terrorist organizations, which does open additional operational options. Not passing judgment; trying to consider the complex nuances here.

Media is quoted because The Atlantic tends to be very biased to one side—-they are not objective; they have an agenda.

This is a good faith debate. Notice asking questions and being transparent about what I do not know.

[Not a JAG] I think there are legal interpretations here that I am not qualified to make. However, countless times in Irag, Afghanistan, and elsewhere target vehicles or compounds were struck, killing some and causing others to flee. Fleeing is NOT surrender. So this gets nuanced really quickly.

So what is the illegal order, specifically? Lots of people repeating talking points but not one cites the illegal order. And, The Atlantic is anything but a fair “media” outlet, so consider the source. (21 years in the military).

This is such unserious “reporting” - typical biased, agenda-driven hysteria from The Atlantic. Sixty-day security operations with National Guard to protect Federal officers doing legal deportation operations is not an authoritarian takeover.

I’d like to see a little concern over the lawlessness and crime that’s occurring because certain big cities don’t enforce laws and fail to protect the citizens. Yes by all means protest, 1A rights all day, but attacking police and Federal officers is a crime. This must stop.

And regarding, “extrajudicial killings of random Venezuelan people” - How many ‘random’ people (and a few US citizens) did Obama drone with zero due process?
