It seems Vint engages in self-flagellation each time someone raises the number of limited IPv4 addresses available (like "here"). At the time (40 years ago! The "640k is enough" meme is 'only' 35 y.o!), who would have anticipated the success of Internet? (and for starters, everyone would have reserved the juicy.com domains in the early 90's!). Vint Cerf did an awesome technical and visionary job and deserves a lot of credit for that.
the code is so badly designed, it opens up a full-blown local backdoor
Sounds like antiviruses: they're supposed to fix problems and filter out malware, but such complex software requires excellent optimized algorithms and code, which unfortunately is still due.
What you don't know is that at the time the bible was written, people couldn't use numbers bigger than 6000 (they used some weird 13-bits counters). So the actual biblical year is 800,000 mod 6000 = 2,000.
That's not a dumb question. Organizations where people go and leave, where hundreds of passwords have to be kept, need a safe access to a password database. Why not an excel or word doc, as long as it is in a safe place and encrypted with a strong master password.
Slashdot Mirror
Some ranges were reserved! But due to Internet explosion they were used at some time, anyway
Just install Norton AV on it, and add McAfee to be sure. Then, even a botnet wouldn't want to anymore run on that device
A "millennial" wouldn't use the terms "autistic savant".
French.
I'm seeing "which is the most popular language" every month or so here.
Don't blame the editors. They don't read read slashdot, so how would they know?
1976...! You were only 40 years old!

*and still does! (at Google)
There are 10^80 atoms in the Universe. So we only need an address of 266 bits to ensure all atoms will safely have an IP at their disposal!

...it works!.

Well, hopefully that will end the "system being at updates n-10, have to patch n-9, then n-8, then n-7 ....."
Maybe the router was routing in the ISS
Next generation malware will switch on the camera, observe the room for a few days, and if no woman at all enters the room it stays dormant.
x = 3 * y; // Crash here! WTF?
Maybe y ~ 2^31 and the CPU doesn't support overflow...
would be another explanation.

While this is true, that will never happen. Not within the next 10 years at least.
It tells you what your passwords should be.
Your /. ID looks younger than you.
That reminds of an older office version where the password algorithm was so dumb a Linux tool just needed a '-p' option to decode it instantly.

Drilled 135 holes, one 3.5 mm hole every 3.5 mm. My iPhone has never been lighter.
Do they provide umbrellas as well?
but the word doc is securely protected with a password.
