Yeh, are you single? You're 26, a bit older than me but I'd live with it;)
So for the other people, yeh she's 26 and lives in Mountian View--right next door to me. And to the guy who said she's not all that, I disagree. Depends on what you're looking for. I tend to hate the "fake" girls who wear lots of makeup and dress to impress. She's a more "hometown" (for lack of a better word) type girl. So she is extreamly attractive.
The writer of the slashdot post seems to think that it's bad that AOL doesn't follow RFC guidelines. Well I agree, but it's not like this hasn't been true for a while. I remember when QMail was having lots of issues with AOL's servers because AOL's MX records were larger than the RFC stated. So this is just another exaple of AOL's belief they're better then RFC's.
Taco is the guy who posted about Spamassain and Razor. Razor is the real brains behind any anti-spam system. But I check my mail often enough not to want to deal with anti-spam tools. Just add a filter that looks for your e-mail address in the header. If it isn't there, then it's either a mailing list (which you can filter before hand) or spam. Then the ones that do put you in the To/CC feilds you can just unsubscribe from or erase the one message a day.
Everyone I know who implaments SNMP in a network will use SNMP access lists. I think all SNMP products offer access list control. I agree with the person who said no one uses SNMP v2 or v3 (v3, which I've never even seen the specs for), but SNMP v1 does offer protection in access lists. A company just defines the access list to be of internal IP addresses or a few external IP addresses and no one is going to be able to hack anything.
But lasty, the problem is an interesting one. Good to hear it's not a problem with the spec but with the way it's used in products. It's sometime interesting to see which Open Source product also has this bug and if it's a 1 for 1 match with Microsoft's bug. I remember from past exploits that there is almost always an open source product that has an exact exploit match with a MS product. Makes you wonder if they copy code:)
I hate to give marketing hype, but you (Rob) asked for a layer proxy to send static content to static sites and dynamic content to dynamic sites. Take a look at Netscaler (www.netscaler.com) and their load balancer. I'm fairly sure they do all that and without doing a redirect like other companies. Netscaler considers themselves like a Layer 7 (application layer) load balancer. I've read a ton about them. Also regardless of if you use them as a load balancer, they still have many features that completment other load balancers.
Well, since one of the crafts was heading to Camp David before it was shot down, let me say that the Camp David Accords was from September 5 to September 17, 1978. Although the 11th doesn't act as a significant day, it was somewhat a turning point day from where Isreal finaly came to the conclusion that they'd need to sign the agreement. Search google for the subject and read about it.
Also, someone else says that tomorrow is / would have been the sentencing date for the first World Trade Center bombers (the ones who used a car with a bomb in it).
And why can't you have hand overs in 802.11b? The answer is you can. Some of the networks I know that are deployed all use 10.X.X.X network addresses. You have everyone offering community networks using those addresses. Now sure MAC addresses change, but the default gateway and such would work just fine. Then behind the private 10. address range you'd have your private-public router. DHCP would cause some problems in the hand off, but could be fixed. Use static addresses and I think your fine. Anyways, why move around. Most of these networks are not large areas. They may have point-to-point antennas, but the omni-directional ones wont have a huge range.

Oh, and I'm very against having an ISP in my technical contact record. A few years back (about 8) I was hosting a business site for some company I was doing design for. After a while that business customer wanted to hire a new designer. I registered the domain for the company and thus had ownership. But the company just called the ISP I was hosting with and had them change ownership to them. And because the ISP was on the record, they could do that. Since then I make sure I stay away from companies that force me to have them as technical contact.
One of the companies I work with does some cybersquatting (the legal form), and to keep track of their 4,000+ domains they do DIG queries to monitor ownership. In our case were worried that people hijack the domains from us. Now to save the root servers the work, we've signed up with Network Solution's Root Zone program. Every day (or whenever needed) we download about a gig of data and it provides us with the ownership information. That may work for you also.
This along with the new internet radio boxes and I'll be happy. Who cares if the internet is the cause of the power problems out here in California, but I need it. I wonder what my kids will say when I tell them I lived in a day before we had MP3 systems, Tivo's, and internet radios.
I'm working for a startup in the valley. I'm not hired for doing what you wanted, but those are my talents. The company I work for says they hire most of their people from Dice.com. It's the one where most people recruit from. Hotjobs is nice, but it's not Dice. If you need some contract work then send me and e-mail. I think I'm happy with this well funded company.
I see that Slashdot is using "static" installs of Linux. It's a good idea and all, but a more cost effective method is one I was hired to handle for a company.
The idea is if the system ever crashes, it will automaticly boot off a CDROM, format the hard drive, and install a new copy of the operating system with your modifications to it. This is not a good solution for a database computer, but any of the web servers that contain nothing dynamic themselves, its a great solution. If someone hacks the internal server, just reboot.
We also did the same thing with the multiple datacenters. The computers talked to each other over a VPN network, backed themselves up to one computer that was ONLY accessible over the VPN network, etc. Then from the location of the "secure" severs (only on VPN) we would write and test new versions of our distribution (modified Slackware). Then just burn it to a CDROM and mail it out to the systems around the country. Put it in each system, and again reboot. Drop me an e-mail for more information.
Anyone ever read the great book called "Virus"? Not the movie, the book. Depending on how modifications were made to the satalites, open source could be a key protection against what happen in the book Virus (StarWars satalite system gone bad). If one person had the ability to modify code and update the systems, there could be some real security issues. But in any case, if these people save the network I would love to be them now. Make a few billion by doing this.
Just to note, RSA lost their patent on the encryption about a month ago I heard. There should be no reason now to need to legaly pay for it because it is legal not to pay for it.
There is a web page smail.org which does the same. Secure Mail. This is not really a new thing. The domain name is a bit messed up right now, but I think going to https://secure.refract.com/smail/ also works.
I so agree. Byte magazine used to be a good tech magazine but now they are gone. Slashdot I find is good because it has a lot of discussion and does have links to the techy stuff. I am not much into circut design, but when it comes to software I like to know about the workings of it.
This is unrelated to the story, but what other news sites are there like Slashdot? Slashdot can only provide so much, and the computer joke site, segfault is not updated enough. Any ideas guys?
I think the problem is not going to be with eBay. The major problems will be with sites like ubid.com, and onsale.com. Both places require you to enter in actual credit card information before you can bid. If someone was to exploit that, they could mess things up a lot.

Now those are some big crystals. If anyone finds a URL with larger photos, I'd love one as a background for my computer.
In any case, I wan to sneak in there and take one home. Make it the center piece of my kitchen.
Have we tried this with AIDS yet? Might be that a male with AIDS and a female with AIDS produces a child without AIDS. Interesting story anyways.

This was posted to Slashdot a few months back. The web site has changed, but it's the same product. You should check for past posts before.

This will be an important device once it can come out on the market more. Little devices moving around everywhere doing everything in very small ways.
My mother was the head lawyer behind the deal. Nice job.

I'm out of the state until Thursday. Lets make another meeting and tell people a week ahead of time. The place would be packed.
