That's not bragging. If you sound like you're bragging, your credibility is diminished.
It's bragging dressed up in a different way. Yes, people in a professional environment are sensitive to the manner in which you boast about your accomplishments, but at a fundamental level, companies and individuals get hired or not based on what they choose to boast about.
Kids call it bragging, Pros call it their portfolio, and corporations call it posting their success stories and case studies (which Marketing writes up for distribution to prospective customers).
Or we could just stick with don't fly near the airport.
However don't fly anywhere without a license "except in this limited special case" or with specific permission from property owners whose land your drone is infringing upon. Provides much better public safety.
The 'nowhere near an airport' restriction does not do anything to address safety issues to craft flying over populated areas, in case of making sure the operator can be identified to be held responsible in case of damage, injury, or deaths, caused by operator error, unanticipated common events (such as a conflict with a bird or pedestrian if flying over a roadway), or defective drone hardware/software.
There's no reason a kid in the middle of nowhere Kansas should have to be licensed to fly a 'drone' in the back 40. There's no reason a kid should need a license to operate a toy plane in his own yard.
Sure thing.
How about this, then: Drone operators must be licensed pilots, except when operating a toy aircraft below 1000 feet, within the boundaries of private property, from which the drone operator is domiciled or whose owner has given express prior written consent, or within the boundaries of public property, from which an official permit has been received in writing issued with the permission of the the landowners involved and local authority, describing the purpose, responsible parties, authorized activity, and conditions of use for the drone.
You have no right whatsoever to anonymity in public.
That might be true. But, you have a right to the liberty to decide what parts of your body you will reveal in public,
and which parts you will keep private.
The "no masks" rule, is essentially a clothing ban.
Nobody has a right to require, order, or force a citizen to remove an article of clothing in public;
particularly not clothing worn for protection, or as a political message protected under the first amendment,
or as worn for a religious or medical reason, necessitating the patient should wear a mask.
right in front of a policeman who said it was my fault for not pulling him out of the way quick enough. This is not what the actual law says, BTW.
To which the right answer is, perhaps; 'I need to file a formal report, regardless, and according to the law,
the biker is legally required to yield and has the greater control of the situation.'.
The officers and parties are to document what they have seen, and it will be up to the civil court judge to determine
whether the biker is actually at fault or not.
Kids and amateurs play...and perhaps brag. Huge difference.
Kids and amateurs brag, professionals create resume entries which chronicle their successes.
Oh yeah, and the really good ones have so much work that they don't have to accept agreements which
forbid them from advertising their accomplishments.
That's the bummer about hacking, you can't brag. If you're black hat, you get caught, if you're white hat, the NDA hits you.
If you're a good white hat; you make sure to negotiate your NDA so it isn't so unfairly restrictive that it prevents you from bragging about your accomplishments.
The NSA has made the terrorists' job much easier.... now that
they just need to create some fake metadata, and the US government
will do the rest of their work, for them.
Yeah... that's right the Islamic extremists are now the brains behind the operation,
and your precious US Government are now the real terrorists.
Their modus operandi has already begun to shift towards defining any dissenters as
terrorists.
What angers me about that is that these idiots fly their toys in class B airspace without caring much about the people that are actually in the air. If I make a mistake, I die. If they make a mistake, I die.
There's the problem.... they don't have any consequences.
The FAA should get off their butts and require licensing for drone pilots, safety testing for autonomous drones,
and setup the technical and administrative requirements to require they document their flights, meet flight information recording requirements, and provide sufficient identification of their craft to be held accountable and legally liable in the event of an accident.
Fortran 2003 has ISO_C_Binding for complete access to the C library functionality.
So you definitely have file and network I/O available in Fortran, much as you have in C.
This might not in itself be reason to use Fortran; however, Fortran does have many interesting
properties, which may enable writing code for numerical and computational algorithms that in the real world will run faster than even C code.
We need spying restrictions that cover Americans, regardless of what source the information has.
It should be illegal to disseminate GHCQ intelligence involving targets that would be unlawful
for the agency to pursue on its own.
60 without breaks, what he was doing was pushing me until I made a mistake. He made a big fuss of it, gave me a warning for being incompetent, and then increased my hours and days I was to work. Another few weeks, another mistake, another warning, and I was told to resign or be fired.
I believe you may have grounds for complaint under federal law, since the employer's practices are likely illegal,
so is the termination.
CEO's don't do *any* "work". They direct. They lead.
No... CEO is just a title for the person who is the representative in charge of business decisions.
It depends on the company. Some CEOs hold multiple titles.
Some CEOs are 'hands off' and do not provide any direct leadership outside occasional administrative edicts and policy controls, and a small band of senior managers they appointed to handle the staff and day-to-day operations.
It matters whether your company is at the scale of IBM, HP, Microsoft, Oracle, Intel. Or whether your company is a startup.
There are technical companies where the CEO is the ultimate escalation point for network engineering issues.
There are tech companies where the CEO actually was the top engineer or developer for the company's first product and may still be available for escalation to help in certain situations.
There are companies where the CEO gets his or her hands dirty.
Also, what are the odds that the majority of the new sites are on parked domains?
I don't know... but Sedo has ~16 million parked domains, and last I checked them, and competing parking providers ran
Apache.
My suspicion is that Netcraft doesn't count them.
My suspicion is that Netcraft is counting server IP addresses.
And because Windows is less efficient than Linux, you need more servers
in your DNS-loadbalanced cluster for a like workload, to scale to the same traffic
levels Apache can handle.
So what if they're IIS servers.... it doesn't mean it's more popular or that it's the better technology,
which seems to be the implied significance of the numbers.
I think the 'number of Active websites' by server type is a much more interesting metric.
I bet >40% the IIS sites are a combination of:
Azure trials by spammers and phishers using custom-generated domains (
Microsoft Azure Web Sites also offers fraudsters the ability to use an SSL certificate. All subdomains of azurewebsites.net are automatically accessible via HTTPS using a *.azurewebsites.net SSL certificate.
...
SSL certificate is irrevocable!
The Baseline Requirements that forms part of Mozilla’s CA policy suggests that the SSL certificate must be revoked within 24 hours: “The CA SHALL revoke a Certificate within 24 hours if one or more of the following occurs: [..] [t]he CA is made aware that a Wildcard Certificate has been used to authenticate a fraudulently misleading subordinate Fully-Qualified Domain Name”. However, Microsoft itself issued the SSL certificate from its sub-CA of Verizon Business and has chosen not to revoke it.
Moreover, the SSL certificate does not include an OCSP responder URL and is not served with a stapled response (which is also in violation of the Baseline Requirements) and consequently the SSL certificate is irrevocable in some major browsers, particularly Firefox.
Free email addresses!
Free anonymising proxy!
), and
* Default front pages; web server with IIS installed for no good reason
* Default front page; IIS installed to serve Outlook Web Access, or proprietary.
* Default fornt page; IIS installed to serve proprietary intranet application.... some security-clueless idiot in management directed the firewall admin to open up the server to the world, so they could connect to the ERP / enterprise accounting system while on business trips or at home.
A: Legacy code, and because Fortran 2003+ is a very good modern language for scientific computation and maps very naturally to problems
See.... Fortran 2003 is more modern than ISO 1999 C.... Now that that's settled...
How come people are still programming in languages like C/C++/Java, when Fortran2003 is available?
Yeah.... welll... I decided the nginx lines were too complicated an extra config addition... I preferred the iptables -I INPUT -s xxx.../16 -j DROP instead.
So the headline was a lie then. They didn't divest $18 billion from coal.
They divested coal which was a tiny fraction, perhaps less than 5% of their $18 billion portfolio.
Probably on the order of $10 to $20 million worth of stock they sold off.
They probably give coal more money than that powering their campus every 4 or 5 years worth.
The issue of contaminant storage could be GREATLY reduced by reprocessing spent fuel, and using liquid fluoride fueled reactors, instead of solid uranium.
Wait... that's probably not even a significant portion of their money.
It's just the portion they say is invested in coal.
Responsible portfolio managers will typically not put more than 20% of their stocks
in any one sector.
