Agreed but the backup does not have to run forever. Standby avionics only have to run for 30(90?) minutes or something like that. The INS only has to be accurate long enough to get the plane on the ground safely.
If this appropriately meets FAA guidelines than this is fine.
In cockpit systems a standby attitude device must be installed in the cockpit as a fallback system unless the existing cockpit systems have dual redundancy.
Along the same token the GPS DAMN WELL better have a backup system of some sort. This backup may be a radar system or it may be an INS system combined with altitude sensors or use of VOR/TACAN systems. There just has to be something there.
I said most companies, I didn't specify Google. I'm not privy to inside information so I can't say if this pullout is for profitable purposes or if Google indeed does still have a conscious.
Knowing how to write a basic non-networked application with no memory leaks is not the same as knowing how a bot hacks into an OS. I'll look into that if I ever get hired by M$. Meinwhile there are not too many bots trying to hack into my avionics navigation software (Though with Datalink and similar aplications I'm sure this is coming. Still the OS guy's job, not the flight management and navigation developer's).
If you want IT to cover helpdesk, network management, sotware engineering and everything else with information and technology then what would you like to call the people who maintain the network and computer infrastructure in the companies so the coders can focus on developing earned value applications?
At least thats how it seems. Can't please everyone so its better to do what feels right for you (for most companies what feels right seems to be what is most profitable).
Pretty similar to what the guy above posted and my response there.
My home network consists of myself an my wife. I'd put her on linux but much wrangling with the wireless card in her computer proved fruitless. As a result her windows account is not admin which has pretty much eliminated issues.
This is nothing against my wife. She knows not to click on popups but these days its hard for a non-expert to know how to close some of the fancier attack popups...
Sounds like a lot of what I've heard then. My AVS is up to date and includes spyware checking and I avoid free porn, screen savers and other such downloads and avoid accepting any wierd pop-ups.
My distributed operating systems course did mention how the biggest security issues are social engineering and I guess this is the case here as well.
This is why some things really don't work to have a worker drone in India answering 911 (999 in England?) and going down a list of answers. Its fine for first tier helpdesk as long as second tier knows what its doing but 911 calls should always be top tier.
This is also an unintended down fall of most current development approaches. In requirement based or use case based developments, if the customer gives poor examples they will get poor results.
If a customer operating out of death valley orders an auto-pilot system and fails to specify handling of below sea level altitude (ok, already handled by FAA rules but still makes a good mental example if you don't nitpick it) and a plane crashes because the auto-pilot inverts below sea level it could be considered the customer's fault, not the developer's.
I'm a coder not IT so my knowledge of security pretty much stops at installing anti-virus and setting up a firewall. I have not found any problems on my computers but it is quite possible I've missed active bots with such simple protections.
So my question is: Is firewall and anti-virus really not that effective and if so how do bots get around firewall and anti-virus?
Most of my old books I wait patently for the electronic version. Kindle Books are getting better at having a pretty large selection. There are still a few books I will never part with the hard copy though... one sign of the geek.
That is a good point. I don't read physical books anymore because my wife always wants to throw them away, a Kindle stores all my books in one display that looks much the same as a book screen. The price is not equivalent but worth making my wife happy:)
We would probably see a lot more new technologies if they did not cost more than the old fallback tech...
I can agree at least partially with this one. I've got a bunch of screens on my home machine which helps a lot with the viewing multiple pages issue. I pretty much only print out to bring stuff to college...
Because if only Opera is seeing an increase due to this, it seems likely it is either because people like the name or people like the icon better. Not liking either of those options if true.
They can legally participate in sexual activity including, at the least, seeing each other nude but having pictures of the same is illegal. Yeah I just can't see that curious logic being repeated too much until someone with the ability to do something about it "gets the picture"...

And 0100 is the new middle finger? Glad that hasn't seemed to happen...
HDD is the new tape drive and SSD is the new HDD?

If for nothing more than hacking and playing with the 3d display myself...
LazyFoo's website http://www.lazyfoo.net/ has tutorials on SDL (a very simple 2d sprite engine).
I don't know if he has basic tutorials but he has tutorials in Windows, Linux and other OSes too I think.
and the digital horse you road on...
I will NEVER pay for a sample I want to use to see if I want to buy something.
Pardon the probably redundant rant but I had to get that off my chest...

Can I please be allowed to mod this one up despite it being a reply? Never has a more true statement been made :)

Good to know, I'll get started right up on rewriting my OS with my embedded avionics development knowledge.
Didn't know that knowing how to prevent pointer errors would help me understand how to configure a firewall or AVS...
People never choose randomly... Which icon is prettier or which name sounds the friendliest?
