References please because I don't believe it. Up until your money was secured by the bank or the government itself, very few appreciated bank robbers because it meant they lost money.

I read it as they rollback in the database sense, so that the account still has money and they just make repeat withdrawals until the machine is empty.
Exactly correct. With good accounting measures this would be noticed much faster as deficits start to mount. But with criminals hiding in the bank's systems for months, it's easy to plan this during system maintenance or on days when tallies on bankrolls aren't being performed.
A little OT: This reminds me though of how Bank Robbers always shared this mythical celebrity status with a big portion of the population. In the 20's people blamed banks for everything and were happy to see them suffer. In 2016 the banks are still screwing the population over at a much faster rate, yet you never hear of hackers being heroes to any but a select few.
Google does a pretty damned good job of getting rid of spam. I rarely see spam on my Gmail accounts these days, maybe once or twice a month. The problem is that Google has huge resources to manage filters, so it's success rate is going to be a lot higher than even most corporate mail systems. That's probably why a lot corporate servers are farmed out to Google and Microsoft. When our Exchange 2010 infrastructure finally reaches the end of the road in a few years, I imagine we will probably go to one of those services and bid a not-so-fond farewell to hosting our own email.
I am compelled to point out two glaring omissions which could help you discover meaning in life.
Google acquired Postini in 2007, at the time the best cloud-based anti-spam solution in the world, used by everyone from NYT to IBM. Hence why Gmail is so good (because someone else created methods that were good enough for everyone).
Email hosting is only as good as the person running it. It is not "magically better" somewhere else. Going to the cloud for mail storage and retrieval is both more expensive and less secure than your own infrastructure. I can verify this having migrated several enterprise customers to Azure/AWS/O365 despite the drawbacks. One of them is already considering spending another vast bundle of money to migrate back.
It seems quite stupid to me to keep anyone off the "open web" (whatever that is), because you gain a lot more from operational slips as to what they are up to, than you lose from recruiting value the group in question gains from running a website.
People can slip up in the dark web too. "Hiding" them from the open web just means that you can't find their media so easily in a search. You have to get smart to locate their public conversations and since so many younger readers are inherently dumb, this would exclude the majority of their recruits.
Plus Plus Ungood for putting ban controls on the 'open' web. If it's 'open' anyone can play. As soon as you ban something from 'open', it is by definition 'closed'.
You already agreed to this when you denied drugs and pedoes from the web. Terrorists is just another one to hate on.
OK, but what's the purpose of the 35% tax? Is it simply a cash grab? If so, fine, but then just be honest about it. But my impression was that the tax was supposed to be an incentive to bring the manufacturing back to the US. But does the necessary manufacturing base even exist here in the US? Could apple even build their stuff in the US if they wanted to?
Don't forget to raise H-1B visa quotas so we can argue about which nationality/religion we'll allow to boost the US Manufacturing sector (cause lord knows ain't no uneducated white peeples gonna take dem dirty jobs).
I don't think this applies when the thing you are supposed to be doing but aren't doing is not something creative (like writing code) but instead something simple (like when you are playing Fallout 4 instead of dealing with dirty dishes, dirty clothes and a dirty apartment:)
I bet the guy who invented those fancy disposable plates had a week's worth of dishes waiting for him.
No. According to the Supreme Court, only the President is authorized to actually negotiate with foreign leaders. The Senate may advise him and ultimately must approve any proposed treaty, but they may only negotiate it through the President.
But did you know that Nixon did this while he was running for president (bargaining with South Vietnam), and Lyndon Johnson found out the night before the election, but couldn't reveal it because his source was the NSA, and therefore classified?
Committing a felony, and protecting the felons - we're quite good at that!
Except that, technically, those congresscritters may have been violating the law themselves by engaging in direct diplomacy with foreign powers, which is a felony (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... ).

Spying on active members of Congress is outside of the authority of the executive branch. Unless they had a warrant when they did this, they are doing exactly what Nixon was going to be impeached for.
Nixon was forced to resign because he attempted to cover up the scandal, which was a poorly executed burglary of a democratic campaign office. No one knew what his involvement was at the time, simply that he felt he could not allow the office of the POTUS to be tainted by impeachment.
Now nearly 50 years later after release of the majority of the tapes, we can clearly see that he not only directly orchestrated these coverups, payoffs and White House's politcal maneuvering around Watergate, but willingly committed war crimes with Kissinger and had considered dropping "the bomb" in Vietnam on numerous occassions to show them "he was serious as hell."
To this day I am still amazed such an oaf could be POTUS, and similarly in awe that someone as powerful as the FBI Deputy Director (deep throat), could bring him down. Is our system of government checks and balances our saving grace, or as flawed as two warring factions?
The US population counter gives the US population as 323M + 1 person every 13 seconds.
Ashley Madison claims 39M users + 4M users in 4 months.
Doing the math gives crossover in 2045, at which time everyone in the country will be on Ashley Madison.
I am doing the math on behalf of those who are too dumb or too lazy, whichever is lamer
August 19th - December 28th = 131 days
131 days * 86,400 (seconds in a day) = 11,318,400 seconds have passed
11m seconds / 4m new signups = 1 user added every 2.75 seconds
So we will be adding 11.5 m users per year
If 48% of the US population is male that's 150m men minus the 20m who haven't reached 10 years of age dividing by 50% for those who are married that gives us 70m or so who would statistically be married six years from now
According to Ashley Madison, every eligible US male will have signed up by 2021
You're both wrong. The reason why these machines weren't virtualized a while ago is that you have to make a lot of serial/parallel/ps2 conversions for ports that are truly physical. These are the types of programs that send specific voltage down the wires and expect exactly something specific in return. Lots of times you try to get those returns right and you simply can't anticipate the various bugs that amazingly show up just a few months after you convert. The real problem? Some are nearly unsolveable. You can't even figure out what the manufacturer/programmer was trying to achieve with their hardware interface so it's best to simply leave eveything as is. Half these people don't even work in computers anymore, let alone the vendor they were at in the 80's.
This coming from a guy who espouses VMs every day on a variety of systems.
It would at least be respectably configured for living in (bathroom, sink, heat/ac, fridge, etc). Solar on the roof would keep the batteries up with minimal need for generator run time.
If you wanted to go minimalist, you could probably get a pickup camper.
Yeah for a "fun project" I suspect he could plan ahead a little better. Not only could he have purchased a decent used MH for about $20k but you could actually get financing for a new one with all the perks. Also consider that rather than buying a truck outright, he could have just leased it for 36 months.
Missing spf records were the first thing I thought of as well. That isn't a silver bullet by any means but can certainly help your ratings while you are new and building a reputation.

If there are 6 events every minute, and each last 4 microseconds, then that is 131,400 events to review per year. If you multiply all those microseconds and events you get 525,600 microseconds of data, or about.5 seconds worth of neutrinos to review per year. What the heck is this guy so upset about! They must get really bored down there in the Antarctic.
In America, anti-competitive practices between corporations are illegal. It doesn't matter if they are bidding on the same job and agree to "not compete on this one", bidding on the same employees, or simply saying "don't contact my {insert [vendor / employee / distribution] channels} and I won't contact yours."
Yes, corps can do it and get away with it every day! But if caught they might land themselves a nice fine (see above), or even worse, some time in jail. The corps have quashed the second option for just about any crime they commit, so you are stuck with the first option.
One has got to imagine though, between these practices, H1Bs, 80 hour work weeks, and other wage-lowering standards in the tech field, how many Billions these corps have saved, reinvested, and reaped as untold wealth, while only having their feet held to the fire for about 100m each in this case. They are sure to invent some fascinating practices to hold wages down further in the coming years.
Enjoy your hot soup. cause that's all they serve. on the soup line.
What they're offering isn't out of the norm, though I might negotiate with them and ask for read-only access (non-root for servers) at least. I've been a network architect for a few years, and one of the things that comes with: loss of enable access to the routers and switches. Mind you, I was a data center network engineer for a whole bunch of years so I know my way around them. But the organizations would rather I "look, but don't touch". The great thing about it is: I can't be called for an on-call issue because there's nothing I can do to fix it.:-)
Welcome to needing to think strategically. Take what they're offering as a compliment and run with it!
I concur. Take the small wins (especially in big orgs), and help them make the transition. You don't need rights to anything YET. That's after you learn to trust your team to bring things into the newer enterprise model and they learn to trust you. A position of this magnitude, and the experience in performing the full migration will get you even better dollars and perhaps even CIO at a firm slightly smaller, or even the same size depending on how you play it.
If you were willing to stick it out for five years and got a major offer in that time, why not stick it out another two and see where it leads?
