  4. Recruitment Methods? on Ask Lt. Col. John Bircher About Cyber Warfare Concepts · · Score: 1, Interesting

    How does the military determine who to recruit for electronic warfare? Do they follow the traditional methods such as advertising in at local high schools, walk-ins at recruitment offices, ect.?

    And how do they know the recruit is a good candidate? I mean, theres a big difference between a user and a programmer. I've met a fair number of people who, in my opinion, are borderline tech-illiterate, and yet the military recruiters found them to be good candidates and hired them.

    Last but no least, how many geniuses that haven't smoked pot more then just a couple times have been accepted? Come on, its ridiculous to have a policy that says one is not eligible if they smoked pot more then 3 times in there life. People, smart successful people, experiment, even for a short period in their early 20's.

    I guess that also unleashes another horde of inequalities: what about the gays? Oh, i guess they aren't really people, so fuck-em, right?

    In Business Japan...

    ... Most Japanese Woman quit work after getting hitched. Thats about 50% of the population right there. Its all about becoming a baby-making machine (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/asia-pacific/6306685.stm)

    ... Simple-minded thinking is rewarded. Rather then hire one programmer to program a rather simple data parsing algorithm in 3 days, some companies prefer to hire 3 employees for a year for manually data entry. (i don't remember where I read this, but its out there)

    ... Car drives you! (obligatory "In Soviet Russia" joke)

    However, it isn't all that different from how United States was not too long ago. Socially, you can draw many parallels between USA 50 years ago and Japan today. Japan still has many social issues to overcome. With Japan having the second largest economy in the world, I expect more social revolutions taking place to better the nation's backwards social issues. Otherwise, Japan will have more issues then just a slacking work force.

  17. Re:OFN? on Swiss Man Flies With Jet Powered Wing · · Score: 0

    None of that is necessary for strategic superiority against an enemy. To recall from WWII, as long as we have a devastating weapon to deter the enemy from ever wanting to attack, then we are safe.

Sigh, while KDE is fanciful, it doesn't do much good if X-Windows isn't configured properly and crashes during boot. I've had this happen with every linux flavor & version i've ever used. There better be enough linux technicians supporting this to deal with these issues. My advise to the little brazilian kid: "type rm -rf / , that will get you back into X-windows... heh heh heh"

    The Church of Carmack condemns your post, a profuse apology and confession is now your only hope to salvation. Belief in ray casting will put you down the road to truth and righteousness! But seriously, Carmack created the FPS genre and is still a leader, which makes him one of the most experienced in his field, so, you know, that kind of helps in creating a "god-like" status, or if your still skeptical, a "mini-god" status. okay, how is "almost-god" sound? At least put the word "God" and "Carmack" in the same sentence somewhere, preferably next to each other...

  25. Re:wow, 400 million on Beatles and iTunes At Last? · · Score: 1

    at 99 cents a song (round up to $1), itunes would have to sell 400 million songs before the beatles would break even. I'm skeptical that itunes would sell that many copies, although i guess we'll see what happens. IMO, the beatles generation was from around the 60's to the 80's, and out of those generations, how many know how to use computers, let alone know how to use itunes? i've only met a few, and even then, they are the exception.
