Then maybe stop commenting about contentious topics in US politics?

The reason in question is that not that long ago, people said "you really need to have a specific reason to choose something outside of bash", and people choosing to go off the beaten path lead to zsh and fish becoming powerful and way more popular/well-supported than they were before.
But see the final definition under the verb here: https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/interdict#English
(transitive, US, military) To impede (an enemy); to interrupt or destroy (enemy communications, supply lines etc). [from 20th c.]
You see this version with the noun "interdictor" now as well.
> The Riemann hypothesis is noteworthy for its appearance on the list of Hilbert problems, Smale's list, the list of Millennium Prize Problems, and even the Weil conjectures, in its geometric guise. Although it has been attacked by major mathematicians of our day, many experts believe that it will still be part of unsolved problems lists for many centuries. Hilbert himself declared: "If I were to awaken after having slept for a thousand years, my first question would be: Has the Riemann hypothesis been proved?"

The alleged rescheduling to Schedule III has yet to pass muster with the White House Office of Management and Budget, so it remains vaporware until then and the scheduling will likely not be changed for months after that.

I don't know if this has appeared in ticks but it has appeared in mosquitos.
Some other interesting links:
- On bamboo in particular (semelparous and allochronic like cicadas): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bamboo_blossom

- On cicadas and their reproductive periods: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodical_cicadas
- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_eel : same pattern, but using 2 and 3 as their primes.
- Using a camera drone to spot game will fall under the purview of both Federal and state level Fish and Game/Wildlife departments, eg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Department_of_Fish_... AFAIK this is not federally illegal, so there should be plenty of places where you can do this in the US.
- Drone (I assume you mean some quadcopter UAV) with a gun falls under FAA guidelines. You can't intentionally destroy them in flight or attach weapons to them for the same reason that you can't do that with planes: they are aircraft and the FAA doesn't want to deal with you shooting down aircraft. Since the FAA is federal, you can't do this anywhere in the US.
- Robot with a gun falls under ATF guidelines, specifically ATF letters that indicate certain classes of electronic trigger are effectively a machine gun and fall under the purview of the NFA. Same as point 2, the ATF rules will apply federally. If you have the relevant licensing, which I think would fall under a Class 2 SOT FFL, you can hook a firearm up to a robot since you are legally allowed by the ATF to manufacture machine guns. Most (?) of the Youtubers who have given guns to those offbrand Spots are doing it legally under the supervision of a Class 2 SOT.
- The autonomous robot with a gun would fall under the third point, as I am unaware of any rulings about specifically autonomous stuff, though someone could potentially make the argument that past rulings on booby traps could apply.
None of this directly answers the OP question about whether the 2nd amendment applies, but broadly federal regulation has moved past "shall not be infringed", so what the relevant federal agencies actually de facto allow is more to the point.
If you purchase a firearm from an FFL anywhere in the United States, you are required to fill out an ATF form 4473 and do a NICS background check. There isn't a giant database of all firearms in the US indexed by owner and serial number, but those 4473s do exist and are handed over to the Federal government pretty regularly by FFLs.
> licensing
In most places (eg those with "Constitutional Carry"), the only license you need is to not be a prohibited person (not mentally ill, a felon, no violent misdemeanors involving stalking or domestic violence) and old enough to purchase a gun in the relevant state. But if we just go by raw population, most people in the US would need to go through a more substantial process.
The more salient point than fast is cheap, preferably something with a net profit, which seems... unlikely.

I personally know over a dozen people who own them and have tinkered with them in various ways. I managed to "break" my air conditioner unit (permanently setting it to C, not that bad of a "break") with one. Definitely less popular than a Pi or Arduino, but growing in popularity very fast.
It just needs a [2020] tag.
> Most modern wars are contests of attrition and logistics and bringing down political will to continue to fight
This second point is very well taken; I would extend it even further -- wars have always been contests of attrition, logistics, and political will, but this has been sharply highlighted in all the major conflicts since the turn of the 20th century.
