If this group doesn't fix the vulnerability within a few weeks then the vulnerability details should be published more widely to let what remains of the community address them and to allow users to adopt security measures of their own.
What class of users should be allowed access to powershell but not to all the commands ? I struggle to imagine that powershell is the domain of anyone who doesn't merit full access to the computer. OK maybe they do exist, but I can't see it being a lot of people. And besides, if the restrictions only apply to powershell people who can grasp powershell have the wherewithal to find other ways to get around them.
Maybe states will alter the law to allow electric trucks to slightly exceed the normal length limit on certain routes. I see doubles on the road for some loads already. Maybe create a law that for the next 10 years, all-electric vehicles may tow an additional energy storage trailer (beyond the normal full-size load) with small dimensions. Provided it can be done reasonably safely, It would be a cheap way for the states to promote the migration to electric and provide a way to recover vehicles that had run out of charge etc.
Well if that's true the Navy must think they were attacked by one of their own because they just fired a vice admiral for it. I wonder how bad it has to get before they fire the commander in chief of the navy, whoever that is...
At the recommendation of slashdot a few years ago I used scratch to give a one-off presentation on programming to an after school group of elementary school kids from all grades (but mostly 3rd and 4th graders). I covered how pictures, sounds and words can be represented as a bunch of numbers (after I had overheard a group of managers at work express their incredulity that that was how it all apparently worked) and then manipulated programatically, eg.
change location, color, orientation, pitch etc.
I then talked the group through installing scratch and getting it running on the school's classroom computers (about 30 desktop PCs in the room) - I left them a handout on that. I had also trained up some volunteers who could wander from computer to computer to help out anyone who got stuck.
All the kids were accompanied by at least one parent and there were generally 2 or 3 kids to each PC
It seemed well received at the time but the real bonus was the number of kids who said that they went on to try it for a science fair project or just messed around with it at home (they did not have the option to do it in regular school classes) based on that presentation. The key things for me were...
Scratch was more about telling a story with independent objects communicating than about scripting. I liked the clarity of that model
lack of typing experience was no hindrance
There was a very low barrier to getting the most basic thing working (usually a sprite moving) so kids seemed to feel like they had something they could incrementally work with
There were lots of good silly images, an older crowd might have been turned off by that but these kids got a kick out of them, it was not overly serious
There were some relatable (ie. they looked doable with enough patience) yet quite beautiful demos. I especially enjoyed the Koi pond demo. These demos seemed appealing enough to the children without being out of reach
There was little barrier to installing scratch on their home computer - even the parents understood how to install it and could see that it would not harm the household laptop
Most of the kids had not seen scratch, but even if they had, or if they had some prior programming experience they could find something to do of interest, it was not so simple that it seemed just for beginners
Maybe because their parents were there, the small groups shared the PCs very well, they seemed to enjoy suggesting things for the guy with the mouse in hand, no-one got bored or ran out of ideas
was the goal to raise grades? It may have been the stated intention but by coincidence they make it easier for teachers to handle assignments and generally cut the teaching workload outside of the classroom so that eventually they can cut teachers. Have they also been used as in-school child minding. Really, between adding distractions and creating filler periods with creative names like "extended learning time" they have watered down the actual human teaching time enormously.
This patent is now obsolete anyway, Amazon have been granted the one-touch patent that covers the entry of information or actuation of software using push-to-operate or touch-to-operate or gesture-to-operate controls.
Mapquest says it takes 52 minutes to drive from Stockton to the Pleasanton BART station. I have no doubt it would be longer at peak times
I would have thought that it would be possible to carpool that journey and then take BART shaving hours off each day.
I'm sure the train journey is more relaxing (I like train travel too) but it's not like there are no other reasonable faster options so the 2:15 wakeup is pretty much out of choice, fair play to her if she likes it, not my thing
I presume that the code performing the marshaling or unmarshaling of objects tries to be overly generic and so treats it's input as if it were a mini scripting language of it's own. ie crawls through the input and handles what it finds by having the input dictate what methods to call to get the job done. I'm sure it can be done safely, but it's probably easy to err on the side of "clever generic" code that is exploitable.
Consider that the college that did most to increase the packing density of kids onto buses to the exclusion of all other considerations is... MIT. Choose your college accordingly.
I'm not sure that Amazon buys any stock for this - I'm pretty sure they just print it, diluting the value for everyone else. It's not really a cost to Amazon's business at all.
Really business taxes on profit should be on the high side and businesses should be encouraged to minimise their taxes/profits by paying their workers more or investing in infrastructure
a factory building doesn't cost 10bn. Maybe 1M for the building, 999M for the equipment in it purchased from, well - not WI, and 9bn in "intellectual property" purchased from some offshore shell company.

or an immediate stop
and all the latest applications: kindle, spark, firefox...

you only get to hear about the ones they discover though. Maybe the ball tampering they detect isn't the first occurrence
Really, if it worked in 10ms it would be more than fast enough.

Whatever you choose definitely do it, it was fun
or print
Seconded. They don't even need to open source the software, just publish the specs for the hardware and bitstream.

my fear of high pitched tones can finally be cured. Callas need ho longer terrify me.

Anything with significant amounts of cobalt in it doesn't sound that environmentally friendly
They could probably do more harm to the battle readiness of the ship by delivering 2 kilos of cocaine to the crew.

Maybe on 8/21 you can convince them there is no sun for a while

I wonder if they will allow prime members to pre-order before tickets are oficially released
No, the new title will be: Make America Sweat Again
