Since i am a Greek, and the study was made by a Greek...

It is just a "meta study", [...]

Yes

[...] grabbing other people's real work and aggregating it.

It is a diploma thesis (i don't know if this is the correct term in English) for a Greek university, departments of medical school and mathematics school, in the field of BIO-STATISTICS!

I do not see any effort to go beyond correlation.

Well... BIO-STATISTICS...

Cobbled together because of the pressure to publish, and make conference presentations.

No, just a (good enough to be presented in the European Society of Cardiology Congress?) diploma thesis!

The article, and others googled, are very thin on detail

The diploma thesis (my English is not good - how is your Greek?!).

We are on a relatively tech-savvy site, right? Why is there a link explaining what an audiophile is (as if I couldn't have guessed from the context even if I didn't know), but there is no link explaining how the exploit actually works? (It's not mt_rand that's the problem, it's how you seed it) Why do I have to google after reading the summary? What's the point of having editors here at all?!

I'm surprised that the article doesn't include advice like "You can protect yourself from this hack by placing Mpingo disks on your wireless router."

give him the code in x86 assembly :p, most probably if he is into hardware, he should get the information he seeks from this. If he complains that he doesn't understand because he doesn't code, then tell him that you do not design hardware equally, that is the best thing you can come up with. If all else fails and that you are willing to pimp your arrogance and ego for money, then write a simple perl parser that will parse your program and replace specifically where there are logical decision to their respective gates, http://www.chem.uoa.gr/applets/appletgates/Images/Image1.gif
I would also if i was to pimp out my arrogance and ego to gain money and succumb to doing something out of what i like to do to design an algorithm using gate, it would be no different than learning a new language, map out the if, add, sub, mul, (division gets a lil bit tricky), from that you can build anything, once you make this map, use a perl parser to parse your program as mentionned and make it generate it according to the map you made.

This might help also http://www.i-programmer.info/programming/hardware/4626-getting-started-with-digital-logic-logic-gates.html



:p am no electronic's person, but to solve any problem, a good background study is needed :p.

who knows, if you write it out and open source it out :p it might be of some use to someone else [the perl parser to convert a language to logic gates]!

Actually, Squirrelmail too can manage Sieve filters, with the Avelsieve plugin.

If Roundcube had a Sieve interface, I would start to use it today.
