Yontoo Layers is a "legitimate" advertising program that just barely complies with US laws. I find it on at least 1 in 3 customer computers at my shop. It has a legit uninstaller and asks for permission to install by piggybacking on freeware and installer framers like download.com's new atrocity. So to call it a trojan is just asking for another Symantec style lawsuit for defamation, etc. You have to call it "possibly unpopular software" now. And if this is coincidentally another Yontoo unrelated to the actual company, that's a whole new depth of deep shit they're in for naming it that. That'd be right up there with naming it Pepsi.
The way I understand it was back in the day, it had dirtier emissions and smelled awful. Today, they're more efficient than traditional engines and there's no sulfur or lead or whatever in it so it's good to go, but the government shamed everyone into hating diesel for all eternity because it used to legitimately be bad. So it's not just people generally being stupid for no reason.
This gun gray area isn't something new. There's a Gamo (made in America, wooo) BB gun rifle that shoots 1400FPS, breaks the sound barrier on the way out, and uses sleeved hardened metal exotic rounds. It can kill a small animal instantly. They don't mention what it would do to a human, lol. According to US law, it's not a "gun" but it's also not not a gun. It's just a "weapon." What's the difference? Nobody knows. And yet, in almost all states, fully automatic BB guns are illegal because they're sort of guns. They don't require an orange tip because they're not a "toy" and yet high powered airsoft guns do. But, they don't require registration, a waiting period, or to have a serial number (I think). So nobody ever really classified what is and isn't a gun and the laws are just BS that politicians made up as they go.
They should definitely stop for one second and ask people what they think. Then they'd hear "that's stupid and I don't want one" from all customers everywhere and not waste their money. They look ridiculous, the screen is unreadably small, and they'll likely be prone to damage. Also, a lot of people like me can't wear a watch because constant nerve pressure causes horrible headaches.
So I'm a software programmer and used to be a math tutor. My college hired me after I finished 18 week self-paced Algebra in 7 weeks. That's about all the further I get into besides Quickbooks and customer PC build quotes but this still doesn't seem right to me. Am I understanding this correctly?
Weil wanted to prove that just because an area has a finite length, that means there's an actual, real number of individual points in it? Um, if you think there's 1 million points in an area or line or whatever, make the points smaller and you've got 2 million for example. Think that's the answer, make the points smaller again. This is similar to black hole singularity theory. What is the width of a black hole singularity? Wide enough to exist but infinitely small besides that...in other words, not a value that can be expressed as a real number. The same goes for points in a geometrical area, so there are infinite points. How could anyone prove something that's not true at all? Or am I completely misinterpreting the wording of the stated Weil conjectures?
All data gathered during our research is released into the public domain for further study
More like: All data gathered during our research is released into the public domain for further getting the researchers arrested for unauthorized access and usage of computers systems. It adds up to almost 1 million years in prison if it's under current US law (I used that high school teacher who loaded a folding @ home calculating screen saver onto all school computers as a rough basis for the math. He was on the hook for like 300 years in prison).
This is the stupidest idea I've ever seen. A non-free software suite that's practically in Alpha and any Firefox or Chrome update or IE release or plugin alteration in any of the 3 may break it.
No, I've seen too many Slashdot articles and security conventions. Trust me, it's reality. In fact, what planet are you watching movies on? Because on Earth they make hacker looks cool. In reality, they're immature and have no self esteem so they can never resist bragging online about their exploits. That's actually usually half the reason they did it.
Most hackers especially are careless, stupid, and usually both. They think they're so invincible and cool and above security that they don't even take basic precautions. They think they have some kind of magical aura from being so tech savvy that protects them from "lesser" beings. Lol, good luck with that.
When bitcoins hit $3.60 ea and the difficulty was about 1/3 what it is now, I was spending $42 on electricity to get around $45 in BTC. Now the price is $47/BTC and it takes 1/250th the power to generate them 10x as fast but at 3x harder difficulty. Still a hell of a net gain.
Wow, now it's fast enough to run Crysis 3! Oh wait...that's right, it's a phone. Apps are written for the slowest Android devices for the biggest marketability so that speed means nothing and does nothing but waste battery life. Maybe it can process photos faster with a built-in app or something faster but who cares? Most people run 3rd party apps the vast majority of the time. I would much, much, much rather see a doubling of the battery life than a doubling of the processor speed.
For the record, I'm head IT manager at a small-ish company (100 ppl, 6 servers, 40 desktops) for 25 hours a week for 19k/yr with no benefits in the US and the rest of the day I operate my own retail and computer repair store. It's quite awesome and I tend to catch less exotic diseases here than in Malaysia.
Credit card companies want someone who isn't going to easily and steadily pay the money back. They make money off late fees, finance fees, and perpetual interest.
Slightly, but you haven't been keeping up on the latest hardware? My pair of Sapphire 5830's graphics cards would top off at about 435MH/s at a total system wattage of around 520W. The new Jalapeno chips from butterfly labs will do 4500 MH/s using 2 watts total system power. For comparison, my i5-2400 performed 14MH/s at 95W or so. So the Jalapeno is about 321x faster and about 47x more power efficient so combined, I believe that's 15,267.864x more efficient.
You know, ADHD is quite often misdiagnosed these days. Try getting 8.5 hours of sleep for 3 days in a row while taking a decent amount of potassium and salt and vitamin B12 (and a multivitamin in case I missed something) then re-assess your ability to focus. Your nervous system, after that combination, will be at peak operating ability. When I get 7 hours of sleep for 2 days or more, I can't concentrate on anything.
I've used one TP-Link device ever and it was a DSL modem since AT&T's price was absurd. Also the responsiveness and hardware specs weren't bad for the price. If you want the mother of all routers for fairly cheap, the ASUS RT-N12 (B1) is the king. It uses all Realtek wireless chips. It intercepts initial webpage requests and logs in password-less for initial configuration via its control panel so no typing in IPs. It adapts its IP structure automatically (increments it to 2) around AT&T's modems that purposely use 192.168.1.1 to screw with people. It can be set as a repeater or an access point too so you can drop 4 wired ethernet ports wirelessly on the other side of your house without actual wires. If a machete severs your cable to the modem, it intercepts web requests and pops up and tells you specifically that the link cable between the modem and router was disconnected. I use it at my shop and I've never had to reboot it even after 100+ wireless and wired clients. And this router runs about $40. Take that, TP-Link.
No. If anything I have attention surplus disorder(?). I can concentrate on two completely different things at a time or switch back and forth without the "okay, what was I doing" delay. Thus I'm really good at dance dance revolution:-D
So how long until they just admin that everyone should disable their PDF link handler plugins completely and review every PDF document first as an FTP download? Oh and if they're also still including in the recently killed version Dreamweaver tasks, I'm running CS3, and last time I used their browser lab, it was crap. It didn't tell me anything useful at all and every entry was a waste of my time.

I already don't want it since it's an HP product and thus garbage so the entire rest of the logic in that summary falls apart.

It was merely an attempt to contain Gangnam Style.

They had officially classified it as a coffee warmer
You can sell them on the exchange quickly and easily for USD (or 5 other major currencies)
Why are the marketing and IT departments still there?

I don't call that hacking, I call it logging in so a server. I do it every day at work, lol. OMG I'm a hacker! OH NOZ!
