    It’s not that easy. There is constant information coming in all the time and intelligent agents need to parse signal from noise. It’s not every single bit of intelligence regarding an attack comes into fruition. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. This is an extremely difficult signal detection problem, one with lives at stake.

      Also they did have radar signatures of the attack incoming but radar tech was new and they didn’t trust it.

        Please tell me you’re being facetious, because radar has been in use for more than 80 years.

          I believe that radar should be read as radar system. That is to say it was a new radar system that had not been fully learned yet not that radar as a concept was new.

            I’m confused. When did this conversation divert to Pearl Harbor?

              I think they responded to the wrong person. There’s a pearl harbor tangent happening above this.

            Well by that logic, we should be really suspicious of tech like the wheel or the plow.

              Which is why I have never used a plow before and never plan to.

                Good. And I hope you don’t eat any food that contains ingredients that come from fields, or else you’re buying into big plow whether you like it or not.
