One of the annoyances I have are seasoned developers who don't want to learn. There isn't a lot of benefit from experience if you don't take advantage of language constructs if they didn't exist in FORTRAN.
Perhaps it should be standard practice for individuals in danger of serious trauma, such as members of the military, to undergo bone scans to provide templates for future replacements.
It may seem a minor point, but these planes are drones not fighters. They're great for surveillance and dropping the occupational bomb. However, maned fighters are light-years ahead of them. In an actual dogfight against a manned plane, they wouldn't stand a chance.
They say that a picture is worth a thousand words. However, if we consider that a word is 16 bits and therefore has 2^(16) possible states,
1.143*10^796=2^(16*w) => w = 71.8
Apparently, a picture is worth less than a hundred words. Who knew?
I realize that this is of no help now, but this could have been avoided by simply not giving your SSN to people and companies that don't need it. I have found that when someone asks for my SSN, I can simply say that they can't have it with only minimal problems. Sometimes it means that I have to pay some sort of deposit because they can't do a credit check, but that is certainly worth my piece of mind.
I was in the Marine Corps until about a year and a half ago. The network that the article talks about is the official network that military computers are connected to. (Classified stuff is on a totally separate system.)
My personal machine was in my barracks room connected to the local cable broadband service. It's no different than the connection you get anywhere else.

There's no way this is true. If there were 14 trillion cameras today, that's ~2,000 per every man woman and child.

The whole thing is simply 'citation needed.'

You mean to tell me that as soon as class is over, you go on believing in things that are unobservable and irrational?
Microsoft make it REALLY easy to join XBOX Live but virtually impossible to leave. This is just the most convenient way to leave.
The same is true of the U.S. military.
