    Yes, it is one of the four bugs that got found and fixed. At no point did anyone suggest it wasn't a bug, nor did anyone suggest it shouldn't be fixed. The problem the Pwnies had was they wanted a way to easily search the git logs to see what commit(s) fixed the issue. As usual, you are an uninformed moron.

    Let's hear your actually encountered, real world issue (not read about in a misleading Slashdot post) with systemd that merits such a drastic change.

  3. What hurting? When was the last time you created a custom service file with a non-existent username beginning with 0 again? Oh, that's right, you were NEVER going to do that, and yet the problem has been found and fixed anyway.

    You should have followed the links and informed yourself. You would have seen that each bug was properly addressed, and that this is about some disagreements about how to classify them, if CVEs should be filed, and when that happens how to document that a fix is related to a CVE. There is nothing about this that amounts to "There are serious bugs, and they won't fix them!" Also, none of these bugs were "horrendous", but your understanding of them as well as what a normal development process looks like might be. I guess we'll find out if you follow the links and try to understand what you read. This does however get some press for the Pwnies, and that is all it does.

  5. You don't even know where to begin, do you? Seriously, I bet you can't write a hardened "hello world" BASH script. You are the guy who is highly educated. Not only did they teach you everything you need to know in school, but you spent a fraction of your time on other stuff. So let's see your code.

    Yes. It's a damn good thing that performance isn't an issue anymore! Remember when computers used to solve problems that required lots of iterations? Remember when Python was written in C so it would be fast? Thank God those days are behind us!

  7. "Oh ... I don't believe that ... the ones I have spoken with seem like fine young men. In fact I really liked them. I felt safer when there were two. Four AV packages it is then!"

  8. There is a validator here you can use. Go ahead and try http://are_underscores_allowed... and get your answer from HTML5 itself. I accept your apology.

  9. In case you really want to get a clue someday. You are welcome.

  10. You should have read the link dumbfuck. You would know how stupid you sound right now. It may have escaped you, but my SlashID is much lower than yours. I was writing software in 6502 assembly before there was a DNS. Your belief that you are more knowledgeable than me is laughable, and you are a loser. The fact that you think netflix is the client is fucking hilarious. Netflix is the server; The client (s) are the web browsers requesting domain name resolution. Go read the link now so you will know what you are talking about in the future and stop being incompetent.

    Fonts existed not only well before typewriters, but well before Gutenburg, and have been used to refute and help confirm the validity of ancient texts. Good luck learning about fonts!

    You don't evidently know what hyperbole is, and you certainly aren't smart enough to figure out that guns aren't the problem; idiots like you are.

  13. If there is a problem with data structures the program won't work properly but if the programmer doesn't understand the entire ecosystem there will be much bigger problems that won't get caught at test time. I challenge you to write a safe "hello world" BASH script. No data structures needed. Let's see if you can do it.

  14. The fact that you believe code lives in a vacuum ... res ipso loquitor.

    In reverse order of stupidity of your post doctor's are highly regulated and banning hospitals would cause the death rate to skyrocket, not dip. What amazes me the most is that I don't even think you are trolling. You actually thought that was intelligent discourse and likely handle guns. [Shudder]

  16. On the contrary. I am constantly drawing upon knowledge that degreed people don't have because that domain wasn't their domain so they never learned it. For example, they will be stuck unable to use something like Python's fabric because they are still waiting for IT to set up key based auth. Or their system isn't behaving as expected and they are dead in the water, with no idea where to begin looking. Their web app can't access the server because IT changed something? They often don't even know how to tell if it is their code or elsewhere.

  17. Every company is different, and I said "maybe", but if the person wanting to hire you wasn't empowered to do so then the company isn't a place anyone would want to work: "You must get this done, but HR decides your chance of success."

  18. Yes, I rember when I first learned what pointers were: "Oh ... so that's what they call what I've been doing with indirect indexesd addressing. Pointer arrays." Then I found out about Yourdain & Constantine. Sorry, all that information is available much more so now than then, and it didn't even hold me back then.

  19. Each will have gaps. The difference is that the autodidactic fills them on demand while the one requiring hand-holding is simply standing there with his limp dock in his hand.

    Yes sir .... I believe you just listed all the Linux Distros. Good job!

  21. OMG! Quick ... somebody invent cluster replication, virtual machines, git and off-site backups!

  22. Maybe they saw the quality of your work and moved the goal posts. I have been hired for jobs that require a Bachelor's degree without having any degree at all. Very few positions don't include "or equivalent experience / skills" in the spec.

  23. Might there be a third category besides those who went to college and dropped out and those who completed? Hint: Begins with "auto" and ends with "didactic"

    I can guarantee that the Bush Draft Dodge was far from the first time font analysis was used, and that font forensics predates computers by a very long time.

  25. That is actually an excellent point. Just as those documents didn't change the fact that Bush was a draft dodger, these documents don't prove Sharif is guilty. The major difference here, of course, is that Calibri was in fact available whereas Word definitely did not exist when Bush dodged the draft. It seems to have escaped the press that Sharif was not a member of the general public on the documents purported creation date.
