Configuring trust needs to be turn key simple, works out of the box, and even grandma can do it. Brand-new OS install, I should be able to hit www.mybank.com and trust that it really is www.mybank.com and not some random person doing a MITM.
Self signed defeats the purpose of stopping a MITM. Yes, you do raise the bar because now the data cannot be passively viewed, but it's trivial to actively view it.
The Earth has gone through many phases and transitions have been deadly. What do you mean by "historical"? Which historical phase are we talking about? Around 20mil years ago, CO2s plummeted and was around 600ppm. For the past nearly 1mil years CO2 has remained under mostly 250ppm with brief peaks around 300ppm. In less than 100 years, we have gone from 300ppm to 400ppm, which typically took thousands of years. It is one of the quickest increases in CO2 concentrations for the past hundred million years or so, which the other ones were caused by catastrophic events.
I'm less concerned about the number and more concerned about the rate. normally these kinds changes take several magnitudes longer.
You sound like a Walmart shopper, looking only at the price tags. I first limit my search to 4 stars and above, then I look at what people say is good about the product, then I really dig in and look at what people hate about the product. If I see a bunch of 1 star reviews saying it breaks after several months of use, I'm going to go onto the next product.
I learn more from bad reviews than good ones, but I do use the average rating to limit the sheer number of options.
I read that the on average, having one child is the equivalent of driving 10 hummers to work every day. Don't blame the people who have 2mpg vehicles, blame the people who have children.
That's how "democracy" corrects wayward OSS projects
It's also how it destroys OSS projects. For every 1 useful fork, there are 99 useless ones. A city with 100k people may find it nice to have an option of several hospitals, but they don't need 100 hospitals, even if they're all using volunteer workers. Instead of a few good ones you get a bunch of mostly crappy ones. And the ones with good promise can't get enough volunteers because they don't realize how find the good hospitals.
All kinds of patents, including DNS, DHCP, DNSSEC, ISCSI, RADIUS, SMTP, POP3, DSA. MS owns the patents on many RFCs, but are under their generic "Community Promise".
Don't worry, Microsoft owns the patents on several IPv6 RFCs, but they promise not to sue anyone. It's the exact same promise that they gave for.Net. Really, the exact one. They have a spot on their website with this promise and the list of all the patents they promise not to sue against, which includes both C#,.Net, and IPv6, among many other things.
Let me guess, now you refuse to use Linux because Linux implements several of these MS patents in order for IPv6 to work.
At my state Uni, CS 101 and 102 were specifically designed to fail as many students as possible. Between the two, about 80% of the students will fail or drop out. CS101 shouldn't be easy, it should push the limits. They started to do this because students would get too far into CS before dropping out, which costs them money and wastes everyone's time. I should also mention there was no CS minor, one of the few majors that had no minor.
More like going from JavaScript to C. We need the performance. For certain parts of the rendering, Mantle tech demos were showing upwards of a 10x increase in performance. Some of the stuff I was reading was saying that while OpenGL and Direct3D made getting a minimum viable product out the door, Mantle was dramatically faster for getting a game that got more than 10fps. Once you hit the stage of game development where you need to optimize the code to make the game playable, Mantle was much faster for coding.
One example that they had is AMD took some expert game engine developers, the best in the industry, who had spent years optimizing their engine to make it faster, and with in 3 months of learning Mantle, they were able to have crappy unoptimized Mantle code out performing the DX11 code. Further time spent make Mantle much much faster with little effort.
The other big thing is graphic artists are easily able to try new techniques without putting months of optimizations behind them. They can quickly flesh out some code and get 20-30fps to see if it's even workable. It becomes the difference between trying new things and not.
When your API is system call limited, then you reduce system calls by 20%-30% and you see a 20%-30% increase in performance, you might accidentally make a link.
a classic case of someone who should have probably stayed in academia. Our target environment was constrained in terms of CPU and RAM but he could not write code for such an environment
He wouldn't be good there either. If he can't understand limited resources, he won't be able to help other programmers understand it. If you can't apply knowledge, you're only as good as a search engine. Access to knowledge is trivial in this age.
Why don't we clean up America's mediocre k-12 system first before we push kids into going to college to discover themselves to the tune of $20-30k per semester.
$20k-$30k just means you getting ripped off. State Unis for out-of-state students with no subsidies are closer to $7k/sem around here, on par with the national average for per high-school student cost for public schools. In-state is closer to $3k, which is nearly 2x more than what I paid a decade ago. Seems several University owned patents have expired and there's less "free" funding. We were raking in some serious money from some STEM cell and computer tech patents, making it really cheap to go to college.
In my experience, people who can't communicate also cannot code. I'm not limiting communication to write a paper or just words, but in combination, so verbal, written, and drawings. I don't care if code works, I care it works for the correct reasons. It's not hard to find someone who can do "complex" stuff and make an end result, but I prefer people who can do "simple" stuff and get the same result.
Sounds like the same reason G+ asks for copyright permissions. My guess is MS doesn't freely hand out the patents because they don't want Java whole-sale ripping out chunks of code and dropping it in their product. I assume if you continue to use everything as.Net, you should be fine, but don't try taking MS code and using it for non-.Net related projects.
Then they're completely wrong, to the point that they do not work at all for anything. The fact that my computer seems to work must be dumb luck and was not purposefully designed using scientific theory.
There is gravity in the middle of empty space with no detectable baryonic matter for hundreds of millions of light-years in all directions. You explain that without an unseen new matter. That's right. There are massive voids in space, where we can see the galaxies in the background behind them perfectly clear, but we can detect gravitational lensing within the void. Even if the lensing was caused by dust, the sheer amount of lensing would mean an amount of dust that would be easily detectable. You could also say it's a bunch of blackholes that got ejected from their host galaxy and just so happened to not drag any dust along with them. Even if you could accept that, the lensing is so spread out, it couldn't be point sources.
And there is no evidence that smoking is bad for you. Our models are wrong.
Man1: Man, I'm only getting 25mpg, and I normally get 35mpg
Man2: Ever think that our understanding of the chemistry is wrong, and the gasoline is losing energy in a way you never expected?
Man1: I'm going to go with the gas station added an ethanol mix which reduced the energy density
Man2: But what if our current understanding of chemistry wildly wrong, and you're car is special and shows our flawed understanding?
Man2 could be correct. Hell, anyone could be correct about anything, there is no real 100% or 0% confidence.
The reason people assume Dark Matter exists is because the implications of it not existing is even more absurd. It's the lesser of two evils, by a lot.
They've already checked this years ago. Dark Matter is nearly 100 years old and still not solved. Do you really think 100 years of scientists haven't thought up of these ideas in an attempt to falsify Dark Matter?
That phrase can be said for everything. Yes, we understand, don't limit yourself to thinking inside the box, but don't use it like a valid argument for trying to guilt the community into further exploring ideas that seem completely incorrect. Use your own time and explore those ideas that no one cares to look into anymore. Maybe history will correct the rest of us and bathe you in the glory of "I told you so!".
This is a peculiar one. While we have not directly detected gravitational waves, when watching a binary neutron star, the orbits degrade exactly as predicted if gravitational waves exist. No other known theory would give this exact effect.
