White Hat Hacker Breaks Silence

Flackboy Kevin writes "The nation's hackers are about to come out of their shells on Friday as one of the most notorious 'good guys' in Manhattan makes a rare-yet-cyber public appearance on USA Today's online chat. Gary Morse, Manhattan's white hat hacker and good friend of every Chief Security Officer in the financial world agreed to an online chat regarding security. Morse's uncanny knowledge of how Manhattan is wired helps keep him one step ahead of hackers and has kept him in high disregard in most hacker communities. Morse's company, Razorpoint Security Technologies does not employ hackers who've decided to come in from the cold."

      These Uber-FP /. "hackers" are going to find their IPs banned too. So that may be another reason for these subscriber messages.

      Maybe /. should hire some white-hat hackers to destroy the FP trolls?

    I smell a rat. This dude looks way to happy for a fresh amputee. Like someone else said about not having someone to sue, a book or movie deal could be motive to cut ones own arm off. He could have had plenty of food and maybe there wasn't even a boulder on him. Just camping in the canyons trippin on peyote, using a medical journal to make for perfect choice cuts. Going from Intel's unemployment line to an instant celebrity status for a billion-dollar book deal all for a minor inconvenience of lost limb. Plus he can get handicap plates and get all the good parking spots.

  15. This guy has no proper java experience by javamonk81 · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    I started reading the article, and the more I read, the more confused I got. Then it finally hit me. This guy has never worked with java as most of us do. Writing HelloWorld java programs for each release of JDK doesn't count as any java related experience. "Property files multiply like rabbits in a large, Java-based Web application," after reading this I realized he hasn't used Java web app (JSP/Servlet) in his life. After reading the articel I have realized that the author unknowningly brings forth the point, which says that Java allows you maximum flexibility and access to two different products, it encourages competition thus increasing the quality of the packages we use, and MICORSOFT LOCKS YOU INTO THEIR OWN PLATFORM, WHICH PROBABLY WORKS BUT IT IS NOT GUARENTEED TO BE THE BEST SOLUTION OR IMPLEMENTATION OUT THERE.

    Go see Sony pictures Daddy Day Care! The Family Research Council says "its excellent".

    --
    The dads are in charge. And the kids are all right.

    Charlie (Eddie Murphy) and Phil (Jeff Garlin) are so consumed by their high profile advertising jobs that they are completely missing out on the joys of fatherhood. In the wonderful new family comedy Daddy Day Care, however, their kids provide them with a crash course in child rearing, with uproarious and heartwarming results.

    After failing to excite the public about vegetable cereal, Charlie and Phil are fired from their ad jobs. That means no more expensive day care for their sons at the exclusive Chapman Academy, run by the harsh taskmistress Miss Gwyneth Harridan (Anjelica Huston).

    While floundering aimlessly in search of employment and tending to his four-year-old son Ben (Khamani Griffin) during the day while his wife Kim (Regina King) is at work, Charlie has an idea. If he and Phil can handle taking care of two kids, how much harder can it be to supervise ten?

    Much harder than they ever imagined. Every kid is different and every one is a hilarious challenge, whether they're suffering from sugar rush, fantasizing about being super heroes, or just demolishing everything in sight, Charlie and Phil soon realize they are in over their heads. Way over their heads.

    But slowly they get the hang of it and their new venture "Daddy Day Care" thrives, siphoning kids away from the stuffy Chapman school. As the number of kids increases, they bring in a third caretaker, Marvin (Steve Zahn), who seems to speak the children's language, probably because he's just an overgrown kid himself. They teach the kids how to read, play games, interact, and have fun at the same time.

    Charlie and Phil gradually bond with their sons, coming to fully appreciate the priceless joys of fatherhood.

    However, the better "Daddy Day Care" works, the more threatened Gwyneth Harridan becomes, which leads to a showdown.

    Now it's the daddies against the baddest mother of them all.
