They should allow the potential victim to upload the hash, and not the image.
THIS!
However... Everybody knows that you can alter the hash on an image in any number of ways, including simply converting it to another image format or scale it.
You also know Facebook won't make this happen. The whole idea was to drive a new website with free content.
Attempted? Not by the Trump campaign. In fact, the one guy who claims he was trying to set getting opposition research information, was told to pound sand by the campaign, then he pleads guilty to lying to the FBI. That's NOT a Russian connection... Actually, it's evidence that there WASN'T a connection.
Manafort has been charged with what amounts to tax evasion and none of it has anything to do with the Russians. Also, all the charges allege activities that happened BEFORE Trump's campaign was even a pipe dream, 4 YEARS before Trump announced back in 2012. Also, remember that Manafort's position as campaign manager ENDED right after Trump was the obvious nominee, so had nothing to do with the campaign in the general election fight with Clinton.
The campaign worker who pleaded guilty to "Lying to the FBI" (Again, no charges related to the Russians) was an unpaid worker, who attempted to set up meetings with the Russians for opposition research purposes, was rebuffed by the campaign. They told him to pound sand...
How does any of this indicate actual collusion with the Russians? I'm not seeing it.
Send out advertisements advertising a really good rate, confirmed it on their website, called when my "contract" term was up and guess what? The advertised rates are both largely deceptive (because they add all sorts of "necessary fees" that nearly double the actual costs) and because I'm an existing customer (of over 10 full years now), the advertised rate is not available to me. It's only for new customers....
So, you are going to charge an established paying customer, who's never missed a payment in 10 years and won't require you to buy and/or configure anything MORE than a new customer that's going to cost you money to set up?
The brilliance of this was breathtaking.... I was happy to take my business elsewhere and lucky that I could...
I'm thinking the issue is not enough simulator time for the bridge crews myself...
Please tell me somebody had actually practiced the "We lost control of the rudder" scenario more than once and that the fault analysis tree and check lists included a "Determine where the rudder controls are supposed to be" step..
As I understood the article, the issue was that the physical wheel that controlled the rudder can be moved electronically between multiple locations. The same is true with the throttles. The problem here was the physical control location got switched accidently and they lost track of where it went.
A good UI would have two key features. First, it would have a visual indicator at ALL possible control locations where the one primary physical control was currently configured. Second, it would provide some kind of warning both when the primary control location was changed and when any physical control which was not primary was being moved.
But.. My point is that if you have an employee that's announced they are leaving the best course is to let them go. There is no upside in making an effort to keep them if they already announced they are leaving, just let them go and take your lumps, you apparently earned them.
Best you can do is learn from the departure and take steps to keep others from following. So if your prized employee is leaving for a 50% raise, it might be a good time to take a look at your salary structure. If they don't like management it might be time to review that... IF they are complaining about having to work long hours for little appreciation, you might need to look at your staffing levels.
Of course, as you point out, it's better to take corrective action BEFORE folks start hitting the door, but if you find attrition killing you, it's a good time to figure out why and fix it. I'm simply saying that you don't try to do stupid stuff like make counter offers to keep key people, you let them go. It's better in the long run.
In some places, putting a camera in a car is about the only way to legally protect yourself in the case of an accident. Russians are famous for this, where insurance fraud is rife and local law enforcement won't be bothered to investigate such things without a bribe or two.
So I've considered putting a camera in my car to record the craziness going on and hopefully counteract the idiot who is determined to lie about the cause of the accident and blame me.
"Oh Yea Lighting McQueen? It was your fault and here is proof in high definition video suitable for display on a big screen in court..."
How about lifetime of an individual creator unless its ownership is transferred or assigned, in which case the copyright expires in 25 years from the first transfer date. Copyrights held by more than one individual (such as a company or corporation) only get 25 years from the creation date.
That way the creator is protected for their life, then upon their death it transfers to their estate and is protected for 25 years from that date.
A transfer is any change in ownership or contract (other than a will) to transfer ownership, in whole or in part, of the copyright of a work regardless of if it's compensated or not. This way you cannot promise to assign your copyright at your death or some later date for compensation today as a way to extend the length of the copyright.
Because it nets them more if they don't have to pay the author, which may make publishing a book profitable when it otherwise wasn't. I don't expect this would be happening very often though.
Want to really mess your brain up, try switching between Perl, Python, C++ and Java.... Thank the Maker for IDE's that have syntax highlighting.... I learned to code in C using vi with no debugger (symbolic or otherwise) and a Data General system that didn't flush your buffers on an exception. Debugging with printf where you don't get all your output was an exercise in frustration. It was worse than doing Fortran on punch cards. The only thing I can say is it was profitable.;) At least for the day.
I agree with you but I don't have a choice... I didn't design this thing and had zero input because I wasn't here at the time, I'm just here to make it work.
In the end, I program to get a paycheck and if some yahoo wants a shell script that does something, I'll give them a shell script that does what they want.
Which pretty much outlines my approach to work. I'll program whatever you want using whatever tools you provide (or allow me to get) as long as you keep paying me fairly for it. Where I have preferences for what tools, languages and platforms get used, I have no ideological objections to what the signer of my paycheck demands I use for tools, languages or platforms.
Personally I prefer Perl over similar scripting languages.
I write in KSH, CSH, Python and Perl regularly... Of the three, Perl is my hands down favorite for a scripting language.
If you are writing applications in Perl though, it sucks. The implementation of objects is obtuse, it isn't geared for User Interfaces (Perl/TK anyone?) and performance is really horrid.
But... I cut my programming teeth on C (K&R, not ANSI) so I'm one of those old grey headed guys who go "tisk tisk" at all those new fangled, it's better because it's new things you young ones think are great.
the stock market is mostly driven by lemming mentality, emotion and knee jerk reactions
Actually, not really. Where this is true for the "retail" market and individual investors who think they can trade stocks on hunches like they play poker and don't know what they are actually doing, the majority of stock trading is driven by program trading.
The people who trade on emotion, get slaughtered by the big program traders who can do all sorts of clever tricks by looking at data your average retail investor cannot afford to get. Even if you *could* afford to get the data, the big program traders would beat you to the trade because they pay big bucks to be physically closer and being milliseconds behind will cost you.
Imagine being able to see all the queued up orders for a stock and having enough money to manipulate the stock price in the short term... Then you can sell short, trigger a stack of stop loss limit orders which are near the current price turning them into market orders and collect some cheap shares to cover your short and make a tidy profit with nearly zero risk. Doesn't happen all the time, but you just turn the computers on and let them watch for it while you play golf and rack in the cash when it happens. Of course, there are other ways to make money doing stuff like this...
Oh, I know they look, but what I was trying to say (and didn't apparently succeed in actually saying) is that any company that depends on what they can find about me online when making hiring decisions is not a place I want to work. Sure, make a quick check online, but don't trust what you see for ANYTHING, good or bad because you have no way of knowing if 1. the information you are seeing is valid and 2. if that information actually applies to the person you think it does. Companies that look for information online are being lazy and stupid (or just plain cheap).
I don't want to work for a company that's lazy, stupid or cheap.
As a prospective employee, I don't publish any personal information online anyway, it's too riskily. I have an alter persona with a made up name and personal information that I use in all cases except when legally required to provide accurate information. This includes LinkedIn, Facebook, Slashdot and any other place you might run across me. My problem though is there are only three individuals with my exact name in the USA (all related) so it's a bit harder to hide in plain sight for me. I suggest you take steps to hide online too...

It's April 1st already?
Who in their right mind would use tapes anymore, especially cassette tapes?
In the absence of independent witnesses or technical information, sure. The testimony of an officer trumps yours in traffic court everyday.

Yea, Verizon did the same routine with me...

Hey, to be fair.. There was only one track ball where the helmsman was and have you ever tried to play a FPS game using a single track ball?

It means that the navigation UI was overlaid by the Solitaire UI,
No no.. Angry Birds and Minesweeper..
Actually...

Come on, you can do better than that. You didn't even try to tie it to Hillary Clinton's email server once.
We can't. You know it got wiped (with a cloth) long before this happened...
No, that's where they put the proof that Trump colluded with the Russians for safe keeping.
Couldn't keep restoring the ink on the ribbon using that WD40? Did they run out of spray cans or did the dot-matrix printer finally actually die?

No, I don't do twitter at 3 AM and neither does my dad.. Sorry..
May as well just put cameras in the cars too.

If you're not speeding, then you've got nothing to hide!
If it's a public standard and you have the technical knowledge, even if you have something to hide, you can transmit data that says otherwise..
"Well officer, what did the transponder report? Only 55 MPH? Isn't the speed limit 55? The radar says 70? I think your radar is wrong..."
