The vulnerability is a remote code execution vulnerability. The vulnerability exists in the way that Internet Explorer accesses an object in memory that has been deleted or has not been properly allocated. The vulnerability may corrupt memory in a way that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current user within Internet Explorer. An attacker could host a specially crafted website that is designed to exploit this vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to view the website.
The vulnerability exists in IE version 9 & 10 themselves at http://technet.microsoft.com/e... (from TFA). The problem in this case is not about users hit the site which is already compromised, but it is that the browser being used allows exploitation to happen. Furthermore, MS has not come out with an official patch but rather suggested a work around.
If other browser has exactly the same vulnerability that can be exploited the same way, then your statement is somewhat valid. However, I doubt that other browsers would have it even though they may have similar vulnerability but cannot be exploited the same way.
I am in that program. I made the mistake of getting an MBA at a state college. I kid you not, after finishing my College degrees, which took about ten years, I make less in nominal, let alone real, dollars, than I made before I went to college.
Your statement gives me a few questions. 1)Are you sure that you went in to MBA program ONLY because you said "College degrees"?, 2)Why did it take you 10 years to graduate from the program?
To me, it sounds that you did not tell the whole story about what actually happened or certain situation but rather blame the result on the education. There could be many factors that were built up along the way and you wouldn't consider as relevant.
Anyway, for those who think that they will earn more money if they get a higher degree are hallucinating. The situation is even worse if they loan money to get the degree because there is no such a guarantee. It is a risk which needs to be taken into account. Also, the opportunity for better paid could be depended on the degree they try to get, the school they go to, where they live, the time they graduate, etc. Everything counts toward the future. One must have a clear plan for what one is going to do with higher education before making a decision to dive into it. Generically think that they will be better off after going to school is too simple minded.
Please read the GP post before replying. The GP simply stated the fact to reply to the AC who claimed that this issue is from blue state (OH), but apparently it is a false claim. And then read the TFA and try to relate what it meant before answering less government and pro-business.
Your macro evolution statement is contradicting with your own micro evolution statement. It actually makes me think whether you really know what science is. The macro evolution is a projection of micro evolution and is work-in-progress. Of course, there are plenty of questions not being answered right now, but hopefully these questions will be answered in the future by putting these (proved) micro pieces together (and may discover some other new micro evidence). Completely reject and recategorize the much bigger picture (macro evolution) to something else (religion) is, to me, such an ignorance and dangerous.
How about a plant that cannot grow/germinate but rather die easily in local area (in the nature). So you domesticate it by growing it in your house, and it could adjust to grow normally and not die easily?
I agree. Also, the stupid study assumes that those who are doing the "hacking" are in the same network, would travel around the same time, and play nice to each other all the time as a team. Then the value/profit of the ticket they bought would also need to be shared among all of those arbitrators. A couple dollars here and there for each person is not worth the effort. Also, remember that the more people involved in the same activity, the more disagreements would show up!
The case is valid in the theory, but it is NOT practical at all. I think the blogger just wants his name to be spread out with his exaggerated scenario. I would be surprised if this scenario would not be caught early in the game.
I think what he meant is that do NOT give a source which is already bias toward what the poster is trying to make. In other words, foxnews is not a creditable source to support his point of view.
There was actually a class at my university -- admittedly, sort of a special-purposes class -- where the prof wanted to teach it pass fail but it wasn't allowed to be graded in that way. So he just said "okay, fine; I'll grade it nominally A-F, but the only grades I'll actually give out are A and F." Like I said this was a special-purpose class that would have been somewhat unfair to grade more traditionally and pretty fair to grade with a heavy focus on attendance, but it's at least an interesting idea. Assuming you think the purposes of a class is to help the students learn rather than attempt to rank the student's somewhat arbitrarily, there are good reasons to think doing something like that even in a more normal class would better accomplish your goals.
If you just want to give either pass or fail, then I would say that you do not NEED a grade from this kind of classes. If you give a grade for passing the class as A and failing as F, you are inflating the GPA (which is already inflated). Simply set the result of the class as Pass or Fail, and do not include this type of class result in the GPA. When I was going to high school back in my home country, there were a few classes like this -- pass or fail -- and their results were NOT included in the GPA.
Technically, you are correct. However, you should ask those who come from Taiwan (or even those who live in Taiwan) -- Are you Taiwanese or Chinese? You would be surprised by their answers that Taiwanese != Chinese (so it could be used to imply Taiwan != China).
I still don't see that the point is missing. melstav just directly stated what duckintheface said that it cannot be legally used in court (because the reply from AC implies the direct opposite). However, you are correct and pointing out how they turns illegal into legal way which is further and extend the statement.
I agree and disagree with you about using the illegally obtained information to legally catch the suspect in the act. The agree part is that they could misuse the information and set up a scenario for the suspect to be caught. A set up is usually set with bias that the suspect is the real criminal. Many of the set ups are playing with human mind and that could easily produce false negative results. The disagree part is that it could really take down the real criminal who knows what he/she is doing and covers his/her trace very well.
"I'm sorry officer, you said 55mph... and 24 hours in a day... we're talking Earth days here?"
I don't get your joke... 55mph is a speed but 24-hours is a time period? Or if I understood correctly, you are trying to compare it to Moon days or something? That doesn't make sense either and cannot be compared with "year" they were talking about. Let say you are from the U.S. and you go to Germany. You go to a fresh market in Germany and try to buy potatoes, are you still asking them if they are selling in USD and weight their goods as pound? In other words, where do you live, on the Earth or somewhere else when you try to joke with units?

Well, I looked at the website and the information they give on the site about the tri-color is very vague! It seems that they intend to do so, and that gives me an impression that they did not have the capability of mixing color at the time they were advertising. They just want to advertise their product to get their name out first.
My understanding to answer your question about injecting the dyes on the fly, is that it is very difficult to perfectly add a color to the clear filament. In other words, it is not easy to evenly coat the filament and it would require multiple injections to get the right color. Then they may need to mix the colors to the right saturation/hue first before applying the color to the filament. This is not a 2D that can easily do it on one run. Not saying it is impossible, but they may not find the right and economical way to do it yet.
Sadly, those who do not like Obama will link any bad things to him regardless, and ignore every single fact or truth they hear. I am not really in favor of Obama, but I do not blindly believe in any negative (or positive) campaigns about him. What you are doing right now is similar to a proverb in my country -- playing fiddle to a buffalo. A buffalo in my country means a dump or ignorant person. Therefore, you cannot reason with those who are either dump or ignorant because they cannot and will not understand what you are telling them...
You exaggerate the requirement a bit because an impossible requirement like that will have high risk of being rejected. The way the requirement posted for a job is usually crafted directly from the person whom they are going to give a job to. So if the person took courses in X, Y, and Z, and has (even very little) experience in A and B, all of these A, B, X, Y, and Z will become parts of the requirement! It is very unlikely to find a person who has all of these requirement besides the person whom they have already pre-selected. Or even you found the person, the person would likely not apply for the job because the person evaluate himself/herself for much higher pay rate of the similar job. For those who come from a cheaper cost of living country would not mind the pay rate because it is still much much better than what they would be paid in their own country. For an American, it is totally different mind set.
Anyway, I am all for the reform, but I am not satisfied with the way they use this code.org because doing so has a lot more reasons (that benefit the lobbies' employers) behind what they are trying to show.
When I said it is somewhat true, it is simply in the sense of what currently happened and is sarcastic (an easy example is Walt Disney which in turn updated/changed the copyright laws). I am not talking or thinking about that it is supposed to be forever.
If I find a way to grow orange corn, and add a buttery salt to it, and sell it as "BringsApples Corn (TM)", then no other person can sell corn and call it "BringsApples Corn (TM)", but they can grow orange corn, butter it with salty stuff and call it "Similar_Name Corn (TM)". Since I'd have my own recipe, your corn may not be as good as mine, or it may be better. Look at the similarities on the ingredients of Coke and Pepsi.
You are confusing patent & copyright with trademark - http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/basics/ - when you want to trademark (TM) on the name you want to use for your product and others cannot, and trade secret - http://www.wipo.int/sme/en/ip_business/trade_secrets/trade_secrets.htm - your process/ingredient of your product that is not supposed to be disclosed to anyone but your own! Of course, they all are intellectual properties, but they are not the same.
Then you may need to elaborate about patenting "orange corn" because there are multiple ways of doing so -- patent how to grow/process to get the "orange" feature, genetic (which is controversial), etc.
If people adopts it, would be pretty great because I could know who not to kiss among the female gender
What are you implying here, I am curious? If you are thinking about bad breath, then this would not work because the bad breath could be caused by other reasons besides not brushing their teeth well.
You shouldn't involve irrelevant topic into this discussion. It is not really funny but rather troll or flame bait.
Back to the topic, I agree with the GP the new system in TFA is actually more complicated than simply memorize a set of passwords. In other words, you will have to remember what you did. If you ever need a log in everyday, it "may" be OK (some people may unintentionally forget what they did because of many reasons). If you required to log in once a week, you are likely to forget what you did last week.
Who knows, they might have done that already? Besides, I think the (available in public) information mentioned would cover more than FB or Google even though majority of the data is from these sources.

Still, as I mentioned earlier, it still falls under the assumption that both of you have to be sync. Possible (theory)? Yes. Worth it (practical)? No.
