Yes, I would much rather deal with well written procedural code than poorly written OOP. I have found that instances where 'true' OO need to be used are few and far between.
I think many people fail to recognize that the average age of software engineers has gotten higher and that many have realized that most of the pitfalls in software development have little to do with the language chosen. I would rather concentrate on good engineering practices and refining familiar modules I have developed than learn a new language.
I vaguely remember something about an unused leg in the phone wire used for alarm systems.. you can tap into this and do some level of networking using this wire.
I would just tell the consultant that they have to do it on-site and on my companies hardware. It really isn't clear what the circumstances are behind hiring the person, perhaps a compromise like I illustrated would work.
How about the well know correlation between age and weight gain? Perhaps IT workers are just getting older. Let't think of the easy/obvious anwers before making stuff up.
Anything that hastens cell death and cannot be removed by the body can be considered cancerous. Each generation of cells has shorter and shorter telomeres and eventually become cancerous.
How about Byssinosis or lung disease caused by cotton fibers? We still use cotton textiles though.
My point is that any small particulate (look up silicosis) does not belong in the lungs. Nanotubes will most likely be encapsulated in some kind of epoxy matrix which would entail little or no hazard.
You forgot APL, which was invented in 1957 and was widely used in the finance industry. I wouldn't be suprized if there are still APL programs from this era running today.
Forget about books. He should get a breadboard kit and start monkeying around, if you fry something you are out of a dollar or two. I thought he wanted to have fun?
"It is 2008 and never has so much been spent in information security. Year after year, more and more security hardware and software is purchased, more and more security professionals are hired, and more security is done; yet things are not getting better. Every indicator, every pundit, everything points to more security breaches, vulnerabilities and incidents. Large amounts of proprietary data are compromised on a daily basis. Obviously something is wrong, yet the entire industry goes along thinking things are getting better and more secure.
What do 'math rankings' really mean? Which would be more desirable, having the largest number of people in the top 1 percentile or the entire population being slightly more math literate than anywhere else?
What does saying that a small third world country is 'as dangerous as cold war USSR' do to their status? Especially among their neighbors?
What makes you so sure that it was hacked by an American? Look in the mirror...arrogance.

To be precise we don't see anything in real-time.
Yeah, right. IT workers have the market cornered on stress. Find someone else to go stroke yourself with.

Not really because if you use this (piss poor) reasoning the FSF are a bunch of hucksters.
Ms could cure AIDS and release the patent to the public domain and people like you would still bitch about it.

I think the burden of proof lays on the outrageous claim, not the reasonable assertion.

This is a nonsense hypothetical argument. All that is missing is an automobile analogy.
The tracking algorithims would be the same, abit with a different input.
Gimmie a break!

And this book will save us......
Security is not some end state but an ongoing practice. Nobody will every 'solve' the security problem.
Far too much of the security industry has its roots in FUD.
And so does this review.
I use yahoo mail, which warns you when you get a mal-formed email. There are more ways to avoid pfishing attacks than just the browser.
Billions to prosecute people with thought crimes-- in the meantime thousands of children are being brainwashed and molested by polygomous cults.

how about the other option- let the bug sit till monday and let everyone enjoy their weekend
