Not to mention that I remember multiple cases a few years back of large amounts of government data (tapes, laptops etc.) getting lost, it seemed, on a regular basis.Oh hey, wikipedia even has a page on it.
Certainly there is a place for severe punishment for horrible crimes, but this is mostly about portraying a group of people as undesirable. The UK government has a history of creating commercials that make thieves out to be subhuman, you wouldn't catch them doing the same to nefarious bankers. It's just old fashioned them and us politics. What they don't realize is that if you daemonize a hacker, she just runs in the background.
And I would add, "who live in a society that is unable to contain them". I could see some banana republic dispatching criminals as it has no reasonable incarceration facilities, but the US doesn't qualify.
Per wikipedia Ultimate Tensile Strength of S-glass is 4710MPa and UTS of Carbon fiber is 4137. I know that density is often mixed into the equation for strength, but even so... The biggest thing Carbon has going for it is its stiffness.
I think I remember a Ted talk where a PC connected to the internet was just "appeared" in a hole in the wall in a small village and with no instruction the locals could use it to browse the web and skype (or similar) to british retiree volunteers. They quickly picked up a range of skills entirely self guided including a knowledge of english. I think it might have been this one
My problem is that the denial argument is made against researching or even attempting anything that would mitigate #5 and hence obviate #6. Failing to teach our children isn't going to help here.
The board did not adopt the standards.
Instead, board members asked the committee to revise the standards to present climate change as a theory, instead of a fact, and to present the benefits mineral extraction has brought Wyoming, Micheli said.

The satellite transponder is just an amplifier and a modulator, things go up one frequency and come down another frequency and louder. The satellite and the transmitter are in motion relative to each other and the receiver. Hence there is Doppler and my understanding is that the analysis of the Inmarsat data was based on this Doppler. So does Inmarsat record and retain sufficiently detailed information about every signal sent through their satellites such that they can deduce their findings from analysis of played back signals, or are they managing the receiver in this case and analyzing the log from the receiver.
Japan can implement gun control, whole countries other than Japan can implement gun control, even places that once put a gun into the hands of everyone who could carry one can implement gun control, even when the guns are printed. Gun control IS implementable. Here too...
Saihung is overly harsh, to my mind there's no reason why people should not be able to own a gun or a knife or a sharp stick or use it when they need to defend themselves or others or to hunt reasonably or just for the fun of shooting at targets. There are however plenty of reasons why we should not allow people to threaten others with impunity. The gun crowd simply behave in an overly entitled way whether it involves shooting kids at a gas station, scoffing at grazing laws then crowing over the responsible back-down of LEOs, casually threatening people with death, filling the woods with lead and not cleaning it up or shooting bystanders that they didn't bother to check were there. The penalties for behaving like a brat or being willfully ignorant with a weapon of any kind should be severe. In general, this is the same crowd that expects welfare recipients to "take personal responsibility for their lives", whether or not they espouse that view they should take personal responsibility for the costs that are incurred by keeping the country awash with guns. Instead they stifle research into the problem, stymie attempts to keep weapons from lunatics and serve to diminish any consequences of recklessness or pigheadedness but only when it involves a gun. The overall behavior of the gun interest groups demonstrate profound irresponsibility. The focus needs to change to how people can keep their guns without having the social impact that they do and the threat needs to be "reform or you can't keep the guns".
I have to wonder why writepast, readpast and double free checks, along with memory zeroing are not directly supported for fine-grained allocations in MMU hardware, I know the MMU can handle memory in chunks, but why not extend that protection to any arbitrary length of memory allocation. I would have though that such functionality could be beneficial, effectively directly handle the basic malloc, calloc and free functionality in hardware with real GPFs thrown every time something amiss happens.
No, the goal is to take the jar from 80% men/20% women to 80% men/ 80% women and keep the total payroll cost the same. I welcome more women to the field, and I'm always pleased to see schools get more cash, but this particular move by Google is about increasing the supply of coders overall.
H1B is not citizenship and I don't think one can naturalize under an H1B alone. I see the H1B as a good way to spread US influence among talented people and bring talented people into our workforce (there are never enough good people). As I see it, the system's biggest flaw is that it ties the employee to a single company. If someone qualifies for an H1B then the US has an interest in letting them move from company to company, it might curb some companies' abuse of the system.

the senior engineers that tested the system consider it undetectable. The intern just smiled and said nothing...
I don't know... I'm a big fan of popcorn.
At last, it's not just me then !

they've invented forward error correction, this could enable data communications and audio CDs.
I have an IPv6 block, I think the're freely available.
There are some cheap things that could be added but were, IMHO, cynically left off for marketing reasons. For example, an SDCard port.

I did. I do.
Why should I accept any risk of that ? It's not like you have my interest at heart. It's a selfish fantasy that you'll be left the last man standing.

so do they plan to mail out kits with land mines for us to test with ?
Is that you Dr. Frankenstein ?
