Is it really paranoia or is the malware really out to get me, or at least my computer and my money? Anyway, I agree. If some anonymous dude hands me a free disk, I'm going to trash it.
Linux doesn't find anything. Linux developers find a way of they devote the time and energy.
He may have been accurate as far as he meant to be interpreted as of now, no release of Linux works on it. According to another Slashdot article we just saw, you could run Linux on a pack of Magic: The Gathering cards.
The purpose of stock offerings is to raise money. It was a huge success. If you lost money on it that's because you paid too high a multiple on Facebook sales and profits.
VMware shared the application architecture story of how they worked with the Ocean Observatory Initiative to build a 'Hubble Telescope' of the ocean.
Apparently you can build telescopes out of software now. No need for expensive optics.
It's comprised of a massive network of global, regional, and coastal sensors that send information to a common framework called the Common Operating Infrastructure (COI).
No it's not. It might comprise that though, but it's still not a telescope.
Only true if you use brine for irrigation. In Arabia, most water is produced by reverse osmosis or distillation and the ground water table is actually rising due to the run-off from farms and cities. Fresh water will not polute the soil and is sustainable if you have cheap energy.
Surface water IS brine in every place you'd want to irrigate.
Reverse osmosis for crop irrigation? I've heard of it for greenhouses. I'm not sure it would work for an open environment.
Yeah! 18 minute is certainly long enough time to serve for committing a instance of felony unauthorized computer access, along with entering into a conspiracy for others to do that. 18 minutes is entirely reasonable for a felony+conspiracy to help others commit a felony.
Now, I have a few questions: What day is he getting out, does someone have a gun I can borrow, and is it 18 minutes for all felonies, or does it scale up to a few hours for each murder? Murder being a random example, that is. I'm, uh, writing a book.
Anders Breivik got 21 years for murdering 77 people. So yeah, it apparently does scale up with severity of the crime.
How about if my PAC is called ConservativesforAmerica.com and I ask for contributions that will "promote conservative values" but spend it on ads that attack Republican candidates for opposing liberal priorities?
Not to mention that converting desert to arable land by irrigation is temporary. In a few decades, accumulated minerals poison the soil and it's back to desert except now it may take thousands of tears to recover.
It's a necessary part, but I think it's arguable that it's minor it doesn't comprise most of what a software engineer needs do know and be good at.
In my workgroup, we have a number of people in the software department. They all know how to program. They all carry the title of Software Engineer. But some of them are really just programmers. Here's what makes the difference in my mind (from the perspective of a hardware engineer):
Ability to assess the amount of work necessary to complete a complex task.
Ability to clearly communicate the status of their efforts to technical and non-technical managers.
Understanding and support of the big picture goals of the organization.
Ability to break a large project into tasks that can be executed by several programmers.
Awareness of the methods used in industry generally to solve problems similar to the sort that we deal with regularly.
Awareness of methods that have nothing to do with what we do.
Willingness and ability to do research.
Ability to devise new methods that improve on previous methods.
Production of well-documented work that can be easily reused by other programmers.
The habit of making code designed to be easily extensible and reusable.
Ability to read an electronic component's data sheet and figure out how to drive it.
Ability to advise hardware and firmware designers what it will take to run their software.
Ability to communicate the limitations of their solution.
It's not a straw man in the argumentative sense. A straw man refers to a claim made made in the course of an argument charicaturing the claims of the other side but that the other side does not really claim. It is then easily knocked down in order to undermine the credibility of the other side's related claims
Organic proponents really do sometimes claim that organics are more nutritious. It's a false claim and this is one of several studies that debunks it.
Debunking false and unscientific claims is one of the good things that science does for us.
But the more central claims of the organic farming proponents have to do with environmental and health effects of inorganic fertilizers and pesticides.
Fielding thinks his options should be "use another browser." Well fuck you Mr. Fielding. Thanks for coming up with a standard that you are going to cheerfully ignore while giving users the false impression that you are going to honor their wishes.
Do we need and involuntary standard to get advertisers to behave? Because that's where this sort of shit may be leading.
Or do you want a war with Microsoft? Maybe they'll patch IE to identify and disable Apache servers by default, or send them spoofed and anonymized information by default.
That is what this boils down to. There is no "right" answer, but citizens of each country answer the question diferently.
Yes, there is a right answer. The right answer is, "Let me see your warrant."
So, say the police do house to house questioning when someone is murdered, you basically refuse to talk to them unless they have a warrant for your arrest?
They must fucking love you.
Do you have no concept of civic responsibility? Or is your freedom to be an arsehole more important than anything else?
Americans have a strong bias in favor of the idea that they shouldn't have to demonstrate their innocence to an overly intrusive government.
Running on a treadmill really limits the coolness. As does the massive arm that holds it in place on the treadmill. I think it's clear they haven't mastered the control algorithms yet.
The impressive thing about animals running isn't so much how fast they move. It's that they have complete mastery of all the controls, sensors and feedback systems it takes to run on legs over uneven surfaces and around unpredictably moving obstacles (e.g. to evade predators or catch prey). Even more impressive, they do it in a neat self-contained package that comprises all that plus an on-board power system that can extract everything it needs from the environment. The mammalian system can do this all in a package two inches long. The insect system does it with six legs and a tiny fraction of the size and computing horsepower.
I'm not trying to pooh-pooh these guys achievements, but to emphasize how hard the problem of locomotion is and how much there is yet to do before robots approach the sophistication of animals.
Several polls showed Dr Paul would do better against Obama than Romney (or any of the other names that were thrown around in the primaries.) He has pretty good appeal with independents and swing voters and Romney, obviously, doesnt..
The only thing Ron Paul has going for him politically is that most people don't know what he wants to do.

And this is going to be cheaper than triple-junction cells? And DARPA is going to be in charge of making it cheap?
I'm not holding my breath.
They may see it as a benefit to not bother helping port Linux because their Atom guys are too busy with Windows 8.

and we'd be getting a 100 Watts per square centimeter.
Unlike slashdot, Facebook is all about delivering other people's endless drivel. And phones are one way to deliver it.
The privacy mistakes don't cost them much money.

Is this worth about 14 weeks to you?
PS -- make sure you do it in Norway.

My current net worth is about $600,000 and I have this in my basement. I'm pretty sure I don't have to worry.
Yes you do. Now we know we can raid your basement for food.
18 minutes per compromised computer doesn't seem harsh to you?
10 years of freelance experience also is a "proper job", you know...
But you won't get 10 years of experience as a freelancer until after you've had several years experience of working under proper tutelage.

Soon Moh She will lead the workers out of their factories and part the Yellow Sea.
Why wouldn't they, given the number of malwares out there that can have such a capacity built-in?
That is illegal. Wiretapping is a separate question and it only refers to GOVERNMENT surveillance.
