Software engineering is a term created by some programmers who think they are better than others, for the most part.
Programming with structure and design is not engineering, and is very closely related to computer science. You can't really have one without the other.
Thanks for your civil reply. Honestly, I wasn't expecting that just because of what Slashdot has devolved into.
I agree it is probably unlikely that there are backdoors, and since it was integrated into the kernel and the codebase was used for the SEBSD project (I might be wrong on that), it has been pretty thoroughly reviewed.
I do think depending on the needs of the people wanting to use it, security concerns are valid given the revelations from the NSA in recent years. I don't think the revelations indicate that particular project is compromised, but I understand being concerned.
I take Uber in NYC because yellow taxis often refuse rides, try to rip you off by going a longer route for a few extra dollars and have crappy customer service in general.
Your point is still wrong. I'm not going to check it; that doesn't mean there are not issues.
The article you linked to only supports my point.
For example:
"I looked into SE Linux some years ago, but ran out of time to really get into it. I am a Debian developer, however."
However, May was confident about the integrity of the code.
Russel Coker also states that he thinks the code is fine, but doesn't support that at all. So the article amounts to the opinions of two people.
No where does it state that an audit has been done, and it seems people just have trust in the "many eyes" theory. Which is generally a wholesome theory, but in this case and with the NSA's credibility tarnished, I think it merits a TrueCrypt style review.
Otherwise, my point still stands; Better to use RSBAC for the moment.
Just a note, ignore him. I think he is making some interesting points, but he isn't doing anything illegal and reporting won't do anything, nor will flagging the comments.
His point has merit, and it doesn't rest on him being able to find a bug himself.
The NSA has shown themselves to be untrustworthy, and there are contests each year showing just how to hide malicious code in plain sight.
Until SELinux has had a code review that is public and verified, like what happened with TrueCrypt, then people are probably better of using RSBAC or GRSecurity.
This part of your post is wrong. More guns, less guns, won't make any difference, has nothing to do with the issue. It is just a sideshow.
This is flat out wrong. High school kids should not be able to access automatic firearms for which you should have specialized training to use in the first place.
Gun regulation in this country is a joke. Removing easy access to powerful weapons should be a priority, after fixing healthcare.
This is where you're correct.
I'm a far-left "you can have my guns when you take them from my cold, dead hands" type...
Glad you understand the important of good, reliable government provided healthcare.
A right to guns does not even make sense, civilians would stand no chance against the US military. Besides, if people didn't rise up after the snowden revelations and rampant corruption, it's unlikely they are going to.
NO, the answer is health care. Plenty of other countries have more guns per capita than the US and don't suffer these issues. You know why? Because people are looked after and get the help they need, rather than some nonsense ridiculous purely free market approach.
The fact that in almost all of these incidents the shooters had mental issues should give you morons some type of hint....now, are you going to take it?
Another reply simply asserting that you are correct with only your opinion to back that up. I normally like your posts, but this is an ugly trend.
Fucking, Not fooking. Retard.
Who cares?
Why do you need money?
For TV advertisements?
The internet gives you a platform and a voice. What else is needed?
Seriously, I don't get it. What does the money actually buy?
What do you mean they literally still use jeffersons rulebook to run the shop? Which book?
You won't listen. I could type for days but you won't read it and you'll just try to argue.
This part of your post comes across only as arrogant.
That EU law won't really matter. Easy enough to setup a shop outside the EU and charge what you like to people in the EU.
That is what is coming...it's easy for virtual stuff like this.
You are completely wrong, and apparently unfamiliar with the genre. You continue to show your ignorance.
Yeah, no.

You're one of those idiots who attributes every comment you disagree with to a sockpuppet, huh.
zero_kelvin is one of the more arrogant and misinformed posters on this site. Just ignore him.
Rap is one of the most diverse and rich genres of music. Kind of foolish to dismiss it, it just shows your ignorance IMO.

Sounds like it's time for some custom firmware to override that nanny nonsense.
I have been to the shooting range a few times, but no, I don't know that much about guns.
Sham on you for trying to make this a discussion on gun knowledge and anecdotes while you avoid the point I actually made.

I live in Manhattan, digital here. Why waste paper and pay for a slower, less interactive medium?
Or who don't mind paying $3/week for unlimited access and to support quality journalism..
The regulations exist, supposedly, to ensure safety. It doesn't make sense to enforce them only when someone is making a profit.

The answer is less guns, not more.
A right to guns does not even make sense, civilians would stand no chance against the US military. Besides, if people didn't rise up after the snowden revelations and rampant corruption, it's unlikely they are going to.

Are you retarded? Being AC means jack all as to the quality of the comment.
That bitch is useless. Suing MS for bundling IE about 10 years too late. Please.
