Reposted by SvetBeardSilverman on Security @silvermansecurity.bsky.social · 23/07/2026There's a lot of discourse about a new podcast about Biden's senior natsec team & the fallout from how they dealt w/the aftermath of Hamas's 7 OCT attack on Israel. As I've related before, the real problem is that they had decided they wouldn't deal w/the Israeli-Palestinian issue in term 1. 1/ 34713
SvetBeard @svetbeard.bsky.social · 14/07/2026There are 98 municipalities. Jurisdictions overlap and are negotiated so some munis have their own police and some use County police. Some have their own building inspectors and some use the County’s etc. Then fire departments are their own districts except that some munis have their own. It’s nuts. 020

SvetBeard @svetbeard.bsky.social · 26/06/2026I think even without digital, APS would have died albeit more slowly. It was targeted at the consumer market and the “killer feature” was the drop-in film cassettes. The problem was that it was more expensive and the picture quality was notably worse than 35mm. It wasn’t better enough to matter. 180
