I'm sure a lot of people THINK they can use and interpret the data better. But then there are a lot of inquisitive idiots out there. And many with an agenda. But many fewer scientists with the ability to do the needed research.
I'm sure most climatologists would fall into the THINK category especially if they weren't supported by a bevy of statisticians and computer scientist.
I just checked my Arch Linux and the directories cron.d, cron.hourly, cron.daily, cron.weekly and cron.monthly are all root:root and the permissions are 755 so I can execute anything there with my UID but I can't change or install anything without being root. I know some servers will have cron execute a specific script in the user's home but this is usually done on shared hosting servers.
Of course they are upgrading, my Vista system just decided it wasn't genuine, last month my boss's XP machine decided it wasn't genuine coincidence? If you can't find that little certificate what choice do you have, you can't even buy XP anymore! At least I was dual-booting with Linux but Mozilla reports it's IE6 on Vista.
Aaah... but hospitals can't be run as a profit-based business - cause they are not.
That's because of IRS regulations in the US, they literally have to spend all of the money on some kind of expense real or imagined. That's why there is no incentive to save money, they are happy to spend US$150,000.00 on a fund raises that raises $30,000.00
Nature abhors a vacuum. For example in 4 B.C. a typical Roman Legionnaire carried 60 to 80 pounds of armor and equipment into battle, today over 2000 years later with our lighter and stronger materials the typical US infantryman carries 60 to 80 pounds of equipment and armor into battle! Obviously as equipment weight was reduced due to technology it created a vacuum that filled in with more equipment! Same thing happens in medical care and hospital care as efficiency increases, additional requirements will at least equal the savings.
At least with a bar code tattooed it's not going to change, nothing is more disconcerting than being prepped for surgery and noticing the name on your bar-coded wrist-band isn't yours, except for maybe noticing after surgery!
It doesn't matter what you do now, some asshat is going to read the description of the "linux malware" reproduce it without bragging about what a l33t script kiddie he is and your going to take the burn for it. As for it being a linux malware
I was fed up with the general consensus that Linux is oh-so-secure and has no malware.
I can understand that
a Linux system can be turned into a botnet client by simply downloading BOINC and attaching it to a user account.
I'm not sure that having the user specifically install a software package that specifically runs downloaded programs is the same class of malware as windose user are typically plagued by anyways. This is more social engineering than a linux security hole and more of a boinc security problem than a linux problem
The malware does not exploit any security holes, only loose security configurations and mindless execution of unverified downloads.
So basically your saying is Linux is oh-so-secure that you have to trick users into installing your malware.
If executed by the user, the malware can persist itself in cron, bashrc and other files.
you may be able to install into.bashrc but it's not going to work in cron without privilege escalation or a security hole; usually only widosers mindlessly type in privelged account passwords to install software to run in limited accounts. In fact I'm calling BS on this, you don't have this malware, you just have a plausible idea for it that you've not bothered to implement.
Actually the amount of "speed" increase is trivial, going from 99.991 to 99.99991 doesn't amount to much. The real meat and potatoes of it is the mass increase of the protons which means they carry a lot more momentum.
To “evolve” literally means “to unroll a scroll”, that is, to read a book. The imagery of nature as a book has its roots in Christianity and has been held dear by many scientists. Galileo saw nature as a book whose author is God in the same way that Scripture has God as its author. It is a book whose history, whose evolution, whose “writing” and meaning, we “read” according to the different approaches of the sciences, while all the time presupposing the foundational presence of the author who has wished to reveal himself therein. This image also helps us to understand that the world, far from originating out of chaos, resembles an ordered book; it is a cosmos.

It has been doing "science" for quite a while now, my BOINC client crunched some LHC data long ago, the detectors run just fine off natural cosmic rays collisions. Even at partial energies they could find things they are looking for because HE physics is a probabilistic endeavor, it's just more likely for the events to occur at higher average energies and luminosities.
Well Delingpole listed his data sources and methodology, refuting his results should be trivial to someone astutely logical and reasonable as your ad hominum indicates.
Using wind and ocean power and solar power together, we can have unlimited energy to use in creation of Nh3 (ammonia) which can be used in current cars, zero c02 emissions in that baby.
1. that's what the GP said "2. Build obscene amounts of "clean" (in terms of carbon dioxide production) energy generators." 2. NH3 is very toxic, for fuel usage, unburned emissions could turn unbearable and accidents could be a haz-mat nightmare. 3. to make NH3 you need hydrogen and it's production typically uses steam reforming which gives off CO that'll oxidise into CO2 pretty readily.
On monday I plan to read the actual article, not just the sciencedaily report, because I'm curious about the "1 nuclear plant" per day conclusion...
FTA,
"The problem is that, in order to stabilize emissions, not even reduce them, we have to switch to non-carbonized energy sources at a rate about 2.1 percent per year. That comes out to almost one new nuclear power plant per day."
He not saying we should or shouldn't build the nuclear plants, he using them as an easy to visualize analogy to represent how monumental the problem of replacing enough carbon emitting energy sources to maintain the status quo would be. I don't think we could build a plants a day.
No, the point is that economic activity is determined by energy production such that 9.7 mW = US$1 of economy, population is determined by economy so it follows population is determined by energy production. If you think the world has too many people, all you have to do is restrict the energy production to the only support the desired population level and the excess people will starve off or be killed in the ensuing resources wars; good luck with that.
Cellulose is a polymer, Protein is a polymer, discussing something and using chemical nomenclature to decribe the chemicals doesn't automatically make then Evil(TM); at least they aren't using dihydrogen monoxide!

Finally, something we can agree on!
Prof. Michael Mann, another prominent climate scientist, is also under inquiry by Penn State University.
That M. Mann?
Birdwell said that like they'd even be able to run cancer@home if seti@home hadn't developed the BOINC framework first.

show me the math
The lorentz factor means it would only exist in one spacial dimension that is coaxial to its momentum.
I believe that should be E^2 = m^2 c^4 + p^2 q^2

Unless you keep your savings in your mattress, it's still being invested in economic activity.

Calling software development, network engineering, web design etc. all "IT" is a bit like calling HR, accounting and legal all "paperwork".
I prefer the phrase "Obstructing Overhead", and I usually refer to "HR people" as vampyres.
