A good reason to use RC4 today is that it is the only SSLv3/TLSv1.0 cipher that is not vulnerable to the BEAST attack. But attacks against RC4 itself are gaining momentum, and BEAST is a client vulnerability, and it should be fixed at client side, either by implementing TLSv1.1/TLSv1.2, or by adding the 1/n-1 split workaround. Most browsers did, but there are exceptions.
IIRC, their RFID card just broadcast a number, and the government cards broadcast valid numbers as well. This suggests that government cards do not allow free ride, but ride on someone else's account.
What I do not get is that TFA says the cards have a smart chip. Why then just use a number, where they can do better?
The pragmatic reality in a bad economic situation is that the native that lost there jobs will not accept easily to compete with migrants for a cheap job.
Sure, and that fear is easy to trigger. But you think about it, this is not the current situation : people do not loose their jobs because of migrants. They loose their jobs because free trade make them compete with workers from foreign countries, with lower wages, environmental regulations and social regulations. Add that investors now want ROI of 18%, and austerity that cuts local investment by government, and you have the recipe for disaster. Explaining this means pushing people to think, while FN just have to use the easier tactic of fear
(...) This is why this is so important to let the citizens vote on each subject separately.
And we just have to look at Swiss to know the solution: referendum triggered by the People.
the gaps between the people and the government is visibly increasing in the last decade. Interestingly, this is precisely the main cause of the FN party growing..
There are many french political parties that propose interesting ideas to break out of the current consensus : Front de Gauche, Debout la Republique, Union Populaire Républicaine... The FN has some success because it works more on fear than on rationality. For them, immigration is the problem, but financial predators are fine.
It's maybe more a mathematical problem than a political problem.
IMO, it is a political problem. If the parliament was elected using a proportional process, we would have more parties involved, which means more ideas discussed.
The today French and USA democracies are incomplete from my point of view, by giving to much power to the government of a single party after it have been elected.
You are a very nice person to call democracy the political systems we have in France and USA. The bipartisan system cause the political elite to settle on many subjects, that just cannot be discussed anymore. This is especially true for economical policy. And in the case of European policy in France, we have the odd case where people reject a system while politicians embrace it.
The scientists discovered human being can cooperate. What a scoop!
Considering theses behaviors as odd just shows how Western societies fundamentals are rotten. People help members of their family for free. Why doing the same for neighbors would be so strange?
There are two ciphers family that will provide PFS: DHE (Diffie-Hellman Exchage) and ECDHE (Elliptic Curve DHE). Having PFS enabled for all modern browsers is just about the server offering both families with appropriate priorities, so that clients pick a PFS enabled cipher. Qualys SSL server test is a good tool for checking for an appropriate configuration, although it could make clearer that you cannot both have PFS for modern browsers, and protect against BEAST server-side.
Note that the Elliptic Curve used in ECDHE is not the one that was claimed to be compromised by NSA. We have no information suggesting ECHDE is at risk
While I am happy to side with people concerned with health concerns about GM, the biggest issue for me is that those people claim to enforce IP rights on what feeds humanity.
There is also the dissemination problem. Experimenting GM in outdoor fields is not responsible research, since nobody know what will happen with dissemination
It will be very interesting to see if giving more money for more girls will have an impact or not. If it has one, it will suggests teachers drive girls off coding. If it has none, it will suggests girls are less interested than boys in coding.
There are many real problems to solve: how to sustainably feed humanity (that is: without fucking the environment), how to fight new antibiotic-resistant microbes, how to produce clean energy, and so on.
Now try to imagine the job of a traffic regulator for an average European city train station: it is the same exercice with dozens of tracks and switches, and hundreds of trains a day. Your tools are sheets of paper, pencil, and a telephone to call the workers that run the train and the ones that switch lines (manually, of course).
Some trains are late, they get stopped for various reasons. And in order to ease you, freight trains can be added on the fly as soon as there is a 2 mn gap between two trains.
And of course if anything get wrong, there will be angry customers interviewed on TV news complaining that you are a lazy civil servant that does not knows what real work means.
True if air flow was thought enough at installation time. There are many SMB with servers sitting in a rack without appropriate air flowing setups, and upper servers are warmer
TFA deals about datacenters serious enough that I think it will not be the case, though.
50% is low. People nted it would deny access to a drunk user, which may be good. Sleepy user may be denied as well, so could unusually stressed persons. THe later case could be a real problem if stress is because you need to find something in your computer.
I have seen quite efficient manual train network operation, but the workers behind the success could explain it was only possible because they had a few old timers who where still able to organize train flows using paper and pencil. Younger workers had always worked with computers, and when all the old timers will all be retired, the know-how will be lost.
Not sure it is so irrelevant. Let us go back to the basics of the reasoning
1) High insulin causes fat storage. Do thin carb-eating Janapanese makes this wrong? No they do not, as their insulin levels is not above other populations.
3) reducing carbs cause fat loss. Many people tried and will tell you that it works. The fact that Japanese people are thin without having to reduce carbs does not make the thing invalid for western people. And there are other examples: People doing a lot of sport can also eat a lot of carbs without getting high insulin and fat: everything is burnt.
In biology and medicine, it is hard to isolate one parameter. What happens is that you get many studies, and a meta-analysis study attempts to derive the conclusion you are looking for.
As I said earlier, I always thought that surges of insulin were more responsible of fat accumulation than omega 3 / omega 6 ratio, but indeed we have to explore that idea.
The important point is not the amount of omega 3, but the ratio. Arachidonic acid (AA) omega 6 will promote adipocytes proliferation, while eicosopentaendioic acid (EPA) omega 3 will not, and will be in competition with AA.
As a result, you only get adipocyte promotion if your diet have high AA and low EPA. If you do not consume sea product but do not consume meat from soy-fed cattle either, you are in that situation.
A note on cattle: the omega 3 / omega 6 ratio found in meat reflects how cattle is fed. Vegetals contains shorter polyunsaturated fatty acids: linoneic acid (LA) omega 6, and alpha-linolenic acid (ALA) omega 3. If you feed cattle with grass, it gets a 1/1 ratio of LA/ALA, and the meat will have a low AA/EPA ratio. If you feed cattle with soy, which contains more LA than ALA, meat will have a high AA/EPA ratio.
National healthcare pays for most of the thing, and there is no special price for same day result. Most of the test results are available at 6 PM for a blood drawn in the morning.
The exception is when the lab lacks the equipment to do a test and has to send the blood sample to another lab. In that case, results are usually availble the next day,

That has important implications for governments who have to pay for health costs in Europe.
Government does not pay health costs. Citizen do through taxes, or insured people do through fees.

You mean the army of robots will decimate humanity, retrofitting our needs to what we can produce?
The joke aside, your robots do not produce energy, they consume it.
There are many real problems to solve: how to sustainably feed humanity (that is: without fucking the environment), how to fight new antibiotic-resistant microbes, how to produce clean energy, and so on.
You got an idea of the complexity.
Now try to imagine the job of a traffic regulator for an average European city train station: it is the same exercice with dozens of tracks and switches, and hundreds of trains a day. Your tools are sheets of paper, pencil, and a telephone to call the workers that run the train and the ones that switch lines (manually, of course).

3) reducing carbs cause fat loss. Many people tried and will tell you that it works.

In biology and medicine, it is hard to isolate one parameter. What happens is that you get many studies, and a meta-analysis study attempts to derive the conclusion you are looking for.
I am sure you can find experiments where the omega 6 / omega 3 ration is shifted by dietary supplements, and the high omega 3 group loose fat.
I am sure you can find studies showing that grass-fed cattle has a ratio shifted toward omega 3
It will be difficult to find a paper with both experiment done at the same time, thought.
As I said earlier, I always thought that surges of insulin were more responsible of fat accumulation than omega 3 / omega 6 ratio, but indeed we have to explore that idea.
The important point is not the amount of omega 3, but the ratio. Arachidonic acid (AA) omega 6 will promote adipocytes proliferation, while eicosopentaendioic acid (EPA) omega 3 will not, and will be in competition with AA.
