This would be really helpful for law enforcement with their need to be able to access data from other police counties. There is tonnes of cases where cases cross several jurisdictions and the police have trouble integrating the investigations.
Easy explain it in terms that they will understand the theory for. Say you wanted two children in your family and you go the natural route(no adoption or gender control). The odds are close to 50-50 that it will be male or female. Most people understand that you can get two boys, one of each, or two girls. This is due to the nature of the probability. The first birth has no effect on the probability of the second birth. This simple concept is what plays into the terrorist detection device. The AC that is your parent makes a leap that the probability of detection changes as the machine is used. I don't know how the probability would change, but in the end 90% of the people that has detected are terrorists. A statistic that has nothing to do with probability. For some odd reason though people tend to have difficult recognizing how probability applies to specific situations consistently.
This guy knows how to find compromised credit cards. He should be going to credit companies and working with them to install technology to disable these cards and inform their users. It would be more useful in the end.
Unfortunately, I think this guy wants to make money and did some simple math. He has 40 million names. Say only 5% of the people on the list buy into the search and double this for people that buy and are not on the list(Huge assumptions). Even if he charged them a dollar he would make 4 million dollars. This guy has knowledge and is going for a cash grab. He is definitely scum.

I also think Jones failed to touch on the usable life span of a IP address and nuances of a IP address. Critics compared an IP to a home address fails to consider these major points. A house address changes hands slowly(Weeks). IP addresses can change hands every minute(or less) if the user desired to have that ability. As well, proxies could be likened to PO boxes making them completely unidentifiable. Unfortunately its not clear when an IP address has been used as an proxy making everything much more chaotic.
Your statement is misleading. These beastly machines that we use are expected to be able to do a huge range of operations. The apollo computers were programmed to do a specific set of tasks and calculations. If given enough resources anyone could design a reliable computer that only did word processing or number crunching with amazing reliability.
MSN has a service just like Google Docs, but built more like a "cloud"(hard-like) drive on the internet. If I remember correctly its skydrive.live.com or google it. I used it to trade code between lab computers at school.
'To me the problem is the Wikipedia rule of public use,' says Jerry Avenaim, a celebrity photographer. 'If they truly wanted to elevate the image on the site, they should allow photographers to maintain the copyright.'
I read that and then this article started to really bug me. I was fine with most of what was said, but Jerry doesn't understand the beliefs of wikipedia. Its suppose to support the open distribution of information through a forum. I tried to figure out a less rude way of saying this, but Jerry is basically trying to suggest that Wikipedia should support the capitalist system we want to impose on them instead of the open one they currently support. Or even more simply put, its their fault we don't want to play nice.
There are much more viable options to fix this issue. You can read other readers opinions to see them. What GM is excited to do is leverage a benefit that will force people to replace appliances that normal they wouldn't. This "big ticket" items are the bread and butter for the company and this is just a way to push more then they normal would to consumers.
It kinda makes sense. Apple shouldn't have to support hardware they don't want to support. The testing and help support alone makes sense for them to block access for the Palm Pre. Not to mention they lose iphone sales.
I have seen some pretty awesome looking(useless) motors built out of paper clips, magnets, and a battery. I'm pretty sure there are tonnes of designs on the internet. I think your going the wrong way to expect a 9th grader to understand circuitry and programming. There isn't a lot of basic physics j that can be taught around it.
That is not shock treatment. The currently accepted method of shock therapy is designed to treat epilepsy. They were using it for negative reinforcement. Its just as effective as torturing someone. This is definitely a human rights violation and the genius behind this should be punished.
'a single person driving nonstop cars in their own personal lane of a busy highway at all times of the day or night, clogging that lane for themselves because they paid for the lane and they're going to fucking use it.'
No a better analogy would be a contracted post office. They limit the number of letters a person can send a day and the number they can send in a month. They want to stay competitive and look good so they offer more letters per day then they can handle. They then act surprised and blame the customers for jamming up the service when they choose to exercise their ability to send a large number of letters in one day.
The car analogy just doesn't make sense because the roads are public and not a paid for service. Your correction doesn't make sense because you purchase ability. ISPs sell dedicated lines where you and you alone have that bandwidth. Those are usually purchased by large companies that have that kind of traffic.
This summary masks the true benefit of the information just to turn heads. There is now a paper trail to an anonymous entity. Hopefully if all the international government bodies work together they can stop the activity of this bot net. I'm curious if it has been this difficult to find the master server then how much evidence does the US and SK have to make accusations. Fortunately, for the US and SK their politicians don't need proof to make statements.
I understand that record labels are the entities that distribute the media that artists create. If they aren't charging the radio station for them accessing the media then they should start. If the radio stations circumvent them then I guess they have a legitimate claim. The radio stations are using the music to procure a source of income(Ads targeting listeners). As per performers I have no idea how they are defined and won't comment.
Like they said in Eurotrip, the US was settled by religious prudes. I don't know if its true, but it seems to be in line with all the censoring you mention. I always thought it was funny how movies are rated M in the States then in Canada it would be rated T (Matrix).
Some graphic improvements are not clear cut. In the first sims the views were all locked and to change them slowed down game play. The ability to rotate your view in sims 2 was a vast improvement. I think currently graphics has little effect on game playability where as before it was very important and often affected the playability of the game.
You are exactly correct. Even if you have the license plate, it can only be used as supportive evidence. You need to get information identifying the person driving it to charge them. The car can not be charged with a crime. I don't know how red light cameras work, but I suspect they also take a picture of the driver's seat. Same thing with the house address. It can only be used as supportive evidence. Email addresses are not at all personal. It is what ever I want to tell your mail server in respect to the from heading. It could also be redirected to my server if your dns address is poisoned. I think this is great step forward in realistically classifying an IP address. It is completely accurate of what the protocol can do and how it should be treated as evidence.
But the second, more interesting feature of this malware, the investigator said, is that it creates a direct connection between the infected Microsoft Windows system and the attackers, allowing the bad guys to log in to the victim's bank account using the victim's own Internet connection.
Actually, if you root a *nix box, this part looks kinda trivial.
The hard part is doing it without rooting. Which happens to be a lot easier in windows. If you rooted the box you could do a lot more useful things easier then what this malware did. Imagine having all the payroll information for the county and the fraud that would enable.
If the other guy is feeling like he is being trolled he can go to another server. If I am following what is allowed in the game why should I move servers if there is an issue. Hand in hand, if they know it bothers you. They are doing it to get a rise out of it. People do it all the time in grade school.
Illegal or legal? I don't care. He is probably headed to being a sexual predator. The guy would at least be getting treatment for his condition so it doesn't become worse. About the survey though, most math problems are binary. A yes or a no. They don't think to incorporate their opinion into the equation because that would destroy the point.
Magnets are used everywhere that technology is present. All speakers require a magnet to operate. Computers even need magnets to focus CD-ROM lasers and move hdd heads. Magnets are pretty nifty things when used correctly.
No it is not over zealous. An investigation does not mean that there is monopolistic behavior that just means Google has gotten big enough to possibly be monopolistic. The indicators are all there, which could mean nothing. The DOJ is just making sure it is truly not occurring.
That would be great if acetaminophen didn't damage your liver while you take it. If the drug companies are only putting it in for that reason then they should easily find a substitute. As well, they don't clearly label the packaging. Maybe if the medical ingredients were displayed clearly on the front of the bottle this would not be as bad an issue.
Who would be liable for the bug? Since its dlls that are affected Microsoft would have to fix it. The thing is why should they? Their customers are not affected terribly. It is not technically fraud because it is not really misrepresenting what it presents. Google still benefits because of the adsense charges. It would be interesting to see who wants to fix this.
