Baseball is played around the world. This comment is slightly insulting and pointless.

Misleading comment. 7.08 (a) 2 specifically applies to the scenario like in this comment: > Rule 7.08(a) Comment: Any runner after reaching first base who leaves the base path head…

I am concurring with you. The point I'm making is that it's a matter of resources and trust, not literal "open source" that matters. If I trust an organization to put the resources…

Many open-source projects simply don't have the resources to adequately test their products or provide support. Contrast this with a large company which has the resources and the w…

Not conclusively, no.

I'm not sure speculation changes the central premise of the question. Assume that the document was up to date with the latest techniques. Would you still that consider it to be a d…

I suspected I'd see a variation of this answer in this thread. While on some level it makes sense for some cases (the information is so benign that it doesn't matter if it is leake…

As addressed elsewhere, the linked document is not supposed to be a proof for Russian involvement. The latter part of my comment was meant to provide some context as to why that ty…

I'm addressing the poor thesis that "the IC has been (deliberately) wrong before, therefore they can't be trusted without an undefined amount of evidence." The points you raise are…

I did. You're being either obtuse or are communicating your point poorly. The majority of the story is tangentially related to the statement presented in the headline. It was desig…

Their point was that judging by the headline that should have been the end of the article. Are you trying to be obtuse?

You clearly don't understand the intelligence process if this is your critique. First, the people making the DNC hack report are not the same as the analysts who worked on Iraq. Th…

That's fine, you should be skeptical. But do you really expect a nation state to say "hey, this is exactly how were are damaged. Please exploit us." That's just the nature of the i…
