How did they determine a programmer's skill level? Length of time as a programmer? Ability to find and fix bugs? Self-assessment? Some other metric? Maybe they should have asked on Slashdot how to determine a programmer's skill level. That would have yielded the one, definitive, indisputable method of determining a programmer's skill level.
I would use it based on that quote alone. But if she really wants to fuck with algorithms, she should make it scramble cookies by updating them with random info.
They need to aim their sights at the people who call about your "free" Google and 411 listings (neither of whom are either Google or the phone company).
TFA wasn't making the case that server-side JS itself was jaw-dropping; it was making the case that an application could be jaw-dropping if it was built by a rock-star JS coder who could code for both the client and the server.
Nothing wrong with the humanities, but being a programmer exposes you to enough uncertainty, doubt and skepticism for a lifetime. Same probably applies to any of the sciences. What's more, the uncertainty in science can be measured. Not so much for the uncertainty in the humanities.
The tax should be on frequency (perhaps in addition to volume). A one-time purchase of several million shares is not HFT, but multiple purchases of millions of shares over a short period is HFT. The longer the time between purchases, the lower the tax would be.
By that logic, Verizon could have refused to turn over their records and would have then been immune from prosecution by the government for non-compliance. All that's missing is Step 3: Profit.
ALL security is accomplished through obscurity. The difference is in the degree of obscurity used, which usually correlates to the desired level of security.
The one that people title "Project_Status_FINAL_VERSION_23.xls" and email to each other, thereby ensuring nobody ever knows what the final version is or how to determine it?
That is all.
100 jobs is not a "significant operation". It's a drop in the bucket.
Well the source code is usually fairly legible, but at 7 million lines the spaghetti factor is likely pretty high.
You assume the source code was still available.

No need for the ability to remove it; just change important info to all blanks.

I've seen this TV show.

Do you really suppose that the people the NSA would identify as "terrorists" would use the word "terrorist" when they're talking to one another?
Yes--when referring to those they intend to terrorize.
He should have done the transactions in bitcoin.
That would be insecure since Chinese Bitcoins have holes in them.
56% are okay with the NSA tracking their calls because nobody uses phones for making calls these days.

Maybe the car is sentient, hates the current own and wants to be stolen.
Is it named Christine?
Security through obscurity is no security at all.
ALL security is accomplished through obscurity. The difference is in the degree of obscurity used, which usually correlates to the desired level of security.
Insert lame joke regarding how, in Soviet Russia, Bitcoin mines you!.

I kept my 7th grade programming notes. Yeah, they were mimeographed. Get off my lawn.
I wonder if any of their blue boxes are still around.
It seems to me that when they announce, "This call may be recorded..." they are explicitly giving you permission to record the call.
But the reporter can't be anonymous and trustworthy.
But how can we trust that this is true since you posted as AC?
Not to mention anybody who may have passed by the house.
