about $3000 post brexit. I'm not sure the students are hurting so much financially, many of them will have their debts automatically cancelled before they pay them off. There is a maximum payment per year that's low to nothing if the wages are low.
so where was this single NMI button supposed to go - right next to the enter key I suppose.
Besides, it's not as if c-a-d gets my PC's immediate attention anyway, I can sometimes wait 10 minutes after I hit it, unless I get impatient and hit the power button. If the machine is doing OK then Billy could have picked any key to get its attention, when things go wrong the Non-Maskability of the interrupt doesn't seem to do the trick reliably
I like C. I used it exclusively during the first part of my career and I still use it from time to time. but now I mostly use Java. I like the environment surrounding java (eg maven, JMX, even the stack traces), and the programs are written in java itself, which seems like a strange thing to say, but much of the C code was written in a macro language rather than C per se.
The verbosity of java is not the problem I thought it would be (maybe I just got used to it) and in general I like the amount of error checking the compiler can do, about the only thing I really don't like is the way it handles primitive types, I miss the C unsigned integer types and find unpacking network data structures to be un-necessarily irksome in java, but then only a small part of what I do is so low-level any more
I don't see why MITM attacks intended to capture information would cause SSL errors. I could see there being errors while breaking into an existing connection or poisoning ARP or whatever nefarious tricks are used to force the traffic through the MITM, but surely Mallory is smart enough not to mangle the messages he wants to intercept and preserve and besides, I always thought the SSL connection between the victims and the MiTM were pristine, normal SSL connections in their own right. Maybe I suppose if they wanted to modify content on the way through, but even then maybe an application layer error, not an SSL issue. Enlighten me...
At least it wasn't just my life they stole. With 143M of us affected we can do something about it together if things go wrong on a large scale (like social security gets drained)
You'd be amazed how secure they can keep some things. I wonder if equifax has benefited from leaks at other places by selling credit monitoring, seems like the leaks may be profitable for the industry as a whole.
DACA was signed in Juner 2012, Congress has had over 5 years to pass a law since then but they chose to bellyache over it. If it's sych a great constitutional crisis they would have acted.
I'm not sure that most large hospitals in the US are functionally private (it's not really a free market) or that it is holding them back or making them any better than hospitals in single payer systems. What seems to be holding back US healthcare is the intense overhead of private insurance and the burden on businesses to be in the heath brokering business.
Some state should offer a basic health plan that minimizes or eliminates that burden on businesses and by default enrol everyone in the state. Relegate private insurance to providing additional coverage beyond what the state provides.
it feels like it should be possible to set up a physical analog of the problem and let it find its own stable point. Isn't this what quantum computing is meant to solve ? Or is that cheating by trying every possible solution just very quickly ? There, I've just demonstrated my ignorance (again).
But presumably whoever successfully performs a 1% hack has moved beyond pure brute force and has a head start on making a 10% hack and the dominoes topple after that.
Videos rank right up there with my other pet peeve - people sending me pictures of text they want me to analyse for troubleshooting.
They fetched such and such a (huge) URL or they submitted this (huge) query and got such and such an error so they send me a screenshot. Now I have to type the whole thing in to reproduce their issue.
To top it, they usually resize the image to make it smaller for email so now the text is minuscule and blurry too.

Didn't the IBM guy turn around and say something like "sure we invented it, but you made it popular..."

Because security by obscurity has always been the best policy...
It's still in the hands of the owner, they could choose not to drive the extra miles.

Yes, this exactly, every new item at chaos manner got explored as much as reviewed.

That ship has sailed

It's not another language, it's just scribes writing random things over the old text a million times to obscure what was originally there.

If the kids are doing well out of it then more power to her

Now Nicolas cage and John Travolta will start fighting again, this time over burgers.

So now it's all automated, will I be able so send in my dimensions and have it create a Tee shirt that fits every time.
No, it's some kind of strange temperature velocity product.
it sounds like an inexpensive way for a gang of angry Luddites to set up an ambush for a machine. Plus presumably they get pizza.

Oh I don't know - if all slashdot posts had to be video instead of text it might be quite telling.
agreed - My tone was unnecessarily negative. The guy deserves the benefit of any doubt.
It's good that he probably understands what the problems are. Maybe less so that he is used to profiting by them.
