Re:Diameter of a Black HoleYes, time dialation approaches infinity as you approach the event horizon, so you can never actually enter a black hole, only mosey up to it
:-)What intrigues me about the globular cluster black hole (or a galactic black hole) is that the black hole can form around you, rather than you having to enter it. This gets you around the problem of infinite time dialation approaching the event horizon, as well as the hellacious hard radiation and gravitational tides that exist near black holes. So you could postulate fairly normal things like planets, cities, space ships, etc. being trapped inside a black hole that formed around them. Might be a spiffy basis for an SF novel, in the tradition of Dragon's Egg and Mission of Gravity.

Diameter of a Black Hole
So what is up here? Since when do black holes occupy so much space (I thought they were points)?
Black holes are not points. The edge of a black hole is the point at which the escape velocity (velocity required to escape the gravitational field of the object) exceeds the speed of light, and thus light can no longer escape from the object. This is called the "event horizon."This would seem to imply that, in theory, a very large black hole could have rather low density inside the event horizon. It seems to me that a black hole could spontaneously form around a particularly dense cluster of stars if it was large enough and they all happened to clump together.
But my head starts to hurt thinking about what happens to physics when a region of normal space suddenly finds itself inside a black hole like that. I am definitely not a physicist, so I can't explain what goes on inside a black hole, or if my globular cluster black hole is even possible.

Flourescent PicklePickles flouresce (glow) when subjected to 120VAC. To demonstrate:
- Get a lightweight, 2-prong extension cord.
- Do not plug it in yet.
- Bare the ends, and wrap them around two medium-large nails.
- Insert the nails into the pickle.
- With all hands off the pickle and the bare metal, plug in the cord.
- Observe that the pickle glows around the contact points with the nails.
- Never tough the pickle or the bare metal while the cord is plugged in: shock hazard (duh
:-) - Put the pickle on a non-conductive surface, e.g. sheet of wood.
- Consider doing it out doors, as it smokes and is smelly.
- Adult supervision required. You assume all risk.

Re:Who started this?
And of course, everything that a Microsoft PR flak says must be true ... Clegg states quite frankly that it was Waterloo who first proposed the idea of C# as a teaching language. So this initiative did not come from MS. :-)I have been corresponding with some Waterloo faculty (I am a UW alum) and learned that the University Administration sprang it on the departments as a surprise, without consulting with the curriculum committees. Computer Science (in the Math Faculty) was adroit enough to avoid getting caught in this meat grinder, but ECE (part of the Engineering Faculty) was not so lucky, and had this agreement announced on top of them.
So whether it came from Microsoft or not, it did not come from the faculty, and thus was fundamentally motivated by money.

Re:What is so good about C Octothorpe anyway?
C++ has a weak type system? C++?
You apparently don't know what a "weak typesystem" means. "Strong typing" means that the compiler proves that all arguments are of a suitable type to participate in the operations they are used for. As a result, seg faults are impossible.C++ has a cute "typesystem", in that there are class libraries that do some checking (such as the string class you allude to) but this is not strong typing.
C++: The safety of C, with the performance of Smalltalk.

Re:won't work
With video phones, it would immediately become clear that we busy 21st century people don't have the time or patience to be attentive throughout an electronic conversation. It also would make answering the phone in one's underwear riskier, and might make people feel like they needed to be made up and dressed well when in their own homes.
So what's so tough about building a videophone that has a button for "answer with video" and a separate button for"answer audio only"? Having a capability doesn't necessarily mean you need to use it.Crispin

Re:Perhaps . . . but:
I thought the reason that clocks ran faster in the attic than the basement was because of gravity's affect on the MECHANISM rather than gravity's affect on time.
Uh, no. You are precisely, exactly wrong. Clocks in the attic run faster than the basement because of gravity's effect on time, not on the mechanism.Crispin

Some Say it Has Already Happened ...If backward time travel is ever possible, then it has "already" happened. Someone has likely aleady travelled back before August 2002 and done something, we just don't know it.
Of course, this induces the potential for paradox, causing great cosmological and philosophical consternation. I don't know what will happen if/when someone goes backwards through time, but here's some ideas:
- The universe forks in two when a paradox is induced.
- The universe forks in two at the instant the traveller enters history (because at a micro-level, paradox is induced as soon as they appear).
- Paradox induces a cascading feedback loop of self-modifying universes (each inducing a time-traveller who goes back and causes another chage) until the sequence halts with a universe in which time travel is not developed. My bet is that if time-travel is possible, then this is what has happened, because there is no evidence of time travel.
:-) Accelerated time travel is also possible due to reletavistic effects and (possibly) cryogenics, allowing you to travel forward in time at some rate greater than 1 second per second.Crispin

REALLY Alternative :)My wife's engagement ring is in her tongue. My engagement ring is in my left nipple. Neither involves a diamond
:)Ok, so that is probably a little too alternative for most people. More seriously, if you must have a diamond, and they have crappy resale value, why not go buy a used one? eBay or pawn shop for a used ring with a nice rock, and (if necessary) spend the $$ you saved on the rock on some custom jewelry work for a setting.

In contrast, USENIX is actual security technology. Take the tutorials for in-depth learning on important issues, and the technical sessions for cutting-edge practical security research. We have a paper this year on the LSM (Linux Security Modules) project.

Re:You folks don't no sh*t about patent lawCryptome is slashdotted at the moment, so I can't go look at "Claim 1". But here's some interesting prior art, drawn from a paper "Signed Executables for Linux" by Leendert van Doorn, Gerco Ballintjin, and William A. Arbaugh, CS-TR-4259, June 2001"
- Pozzo and Gray first proposed signed executables for the Locus distributed system in 1986 .
- The IBM 4758 uses a signed package mechanism to load executables into the device, Smith and Weingart, 1990.
- Arbaugh built a mechanism for signed executables for SunOS and then FreeBSD in 1994.

Re:More posturing, courtesy of the IEEE
However, cutting to the chase, the IEEE and the authors it represents really have little to fear in reality. The IEEE isn't "2600" Magazine; it doesn't deal with controversial subject matter on a regular basis. They aren't in the computer security business and they are unlikely to accept any remotely controversial manuscript in the first place. They changed their rules for one simple reason: they think it will make people care about the injustices of the law.
You could not be more wrong about that. The IEEE Computer Society Tecnical Committee on Security and Privacy runs some of the most significant security conferences, including the "Oakland" security conference and the Computer Security Foundations Workshop. It is entirely likely that the IEEE may end up considering publishing DMCA-related papers, making this change highly problematic.Crispin

Re:SELinux vs. LIDSSee my post on LSM: the Linux Security Modules project. This is precisely what LSM is about: give Linux a kernel loadable module interface that lets you load SELinux, SubDomain, LIDS (which got its security model from SubDomain), etc. into the kernel.
Stacking modules (loading more than one module at once) is problematic, because security policies are known to not be composable in general. However, if the modules have been designed to be stacked, then LSM will let you stack them.

Linux Security Modules (LSM)Note that the issue of getting SELinux from being a patch to Red Hat to being a truly generic solution is part of what the Linux Security Modules (LSM) project is all about: provide a module interface for the standard Linux kernel that can load a variety of modules, including SELinux. We are close to ready to propose the LSM patch for inclusion into the Linux 2.5 source tree. We maintain up-to-date LSM patches for both Linux 2.4 and 2.5.
