Why is it that every time there's a new idea presented on Slashdot, the slightest connection to existing technology makes it completely worthless?
For some people, it's easier to tear down another person's idea or accomplishment than to accomplish something great themselves. It's really like saying, "I could've done that... but I didn't... 'cause it's dumb."
It isn't programmer negligence in this case, it's the underlying Android implementation. The default constructor is supposed to seed the generator with secure entropy. Conversely, setSeed() is considered insecure and not recommended.

FTFY. I hope you understand how the number of "perpetrators" and "convictions" are only related by the amount of money the defendant has to spend on lawyers.
Old Navy cargo shorts are the worst! The normal side pockets are too small to hold anything without the risk of them falling out. My phone and keys are always ending up on the ground unless I put them in the lower "cargo" pockets, and those are just a pain, and without buttoning them down stuff falls out of them too!
It's probably based on the amount of ammo sold to civilians in the US. Not that all of it is used, but I would assume most of it is. I know that I used to go up to the mountains and easily blow off 200 rounds in a weekend, just target shooting.
Also, from what I understand, rounds from most hunting rifles only leave a few fragments behind in the target. The bulk of the bullet goes right through and ends up in the woods.
He did screw up on the item in the green chart labeled "Extra dose to Tokyo in weeks following Fukushima accident". He wrote that as 40 mSv, while the graphic depicts 40 uSv, which, based on context, is probably the correct unit.
If you read your own link, you would have seen that it specifically allows for personal, non-commercial use, which is what most people are running from their home.
For what it's worth, I ran a local motorcycling club website for years from my residential Comcast account and never had any issues. I accepted inbound port 80, 443 and 22 traffic. They don't allow outbound port 25 traffic, but they do allow you to send SMTP after authenticating with your Comcast credentials. I was sending emails from my own domain through Comcast's servers.
Maybe I'll spit on the admins that constantly ask engineering for help doing their jobs. Can't find that rogue DHCP server? Can't figure out how to manage passwords on a Linux box? Need a bash script written to help save you time everyday? Can't figure out why 802.1x authentication is failing on some ports?
Figure it out yourself.:)
I know this is a sysadmin-heavy site, and I used to be one, so don't mod me down right away. There are shitty devs and shitty sysadmins. I work at a network security software company, and every one of our software engineers can do a better job at systems and network administration than our admins. They escalate to us frequently.

Even worse, what kind of guy skips the urinal and pees all over the sit down toilet instead? I've seen guys do this even when every urinal is available.

You claimed something that was impossible and I called you out on it. You lied, and are only making up excuses so that you don't have to admit that you lied.
This isn't a random situation, this is a feature that I use very often and is essential to creating clean and maintainable code. It cannot be done reliably or quickly from the command line, no matter how much you want to believe it.
I know your type too, you're a sysadmin who thinks that knowing a few languages makes you as good as a professional software engineer. You're proud to know how to quickly fire off a sed or awk command or vi up a new Makefile from scratch and think IDE's are for pussies.
You may notice in the first sentence you state that your friend fired a developer and the only reason given was for refusing to use an IDE. Then you have a paragraph expressing your opinion on programmer productivity, but who gives a damn. Maybe if it was your friends opinion, you know, the one who fired the guy. But using logic, you know if a then b, your opinion doesn't fit into the equation.
I'm sorry you failed to connect the dots, as everyone else did, but I was not stating my opinion. The developer was not productive. They can't be in any modern software company without using the correct tools. I didn't even read past your first paragraph because by itself it's shown that you've ignored nearly everything I've written in this thread. I certainly won't read anymore posts from you in this thread, even though I'm sure you'll reply just to get your last word in.
You really don't like being proven wrong, do you. No matter how much bullshit you keep throwing around, you have not addressed any of my arguments. You are wrong, and are most certainly simply trolling here. Age discrimination? Bias? Go to fucking hell. I have a feeling you're not a very productive member of society, and are shilling on behalf of other losers like yourself.
My point, which I've repeatedly stated and backed up, was that he was fired for being unproductive and that was because he refused to use an IDE. You've shown ZERO arguments as to why that was the wrong thing to do.
I'll respond if you can present any argument to the contrary, but I'm certain you cannot, so...
No, I presented my opinion that he was arrogant based on his refusal to use an IDE. It doesn't change my argument at all. He got fired for refusing to use an IDE, no more, no less.
Since you have strayed away from the topic at hand, I can only assume that you cannot possibly debate my points anymore, and are just going to stick to your old biases.
It depends, is the person a valuable member of the team or somebody I'm looking for an excuse to let go? Chances are, if the developer is be let go because they refuse to use an IDE, there is more going on. Why didn't that preference turn up during the interview process?
A person who wastes time out of arrogance is not a valuable member of the team. There was nothing else going on, period. There is an expectation of professionalism in software development, so questions like this don't typically come up in an interview. People are expected to know how to efficiently do their job and not waste time.
Boss: I need X done. Dev: That will take me X hours. Boss: Why? It would only take X/10 hours if you use this tool. Dev: I don't use that tool. Boss: I'd like for you to use this tool to save some time. Dev: No. Boss: So, you want to waste company time and money by doing it the slow way? Dev: Yes. Boss: You're fired.
Apparently you haven't used a decent IDE or have not worked on a large codebase. A simple method rename can easily take hours from the command line and has MUCH higher chance of screwing something up. I've never in my life seen Eclipse bork a refactor.
Productivity counts. If a dev refuses to use the right tool for the job, then they are wasting time and money. They should be fired.
Sure, if a developer can produce equivalent code and perform tasks as efficiently as everyone else on the team, then it doesn't matter what tool they use to get there.
My point is that is impossible.
There are TONS of time saving features in Eclipse, and learning them is not hard. The people who choose to not use them are people who are either scared to learn them, or think they're hardcore because they code everything using vi. There is no place on a professional software team for either. The person who got fired REFUSED to use an IDE... He was obviously the latter.
Look at it this way: if a project needed a simple Java package name changed, and a developer said "Ok, I'll have that done by tomorrow", would you keep them on board knowing that using the right tool for the job would have taken 3 seconds?
A lot of states do not let felons vote, and it is a terrible thing. I don't see how one should be forced to pay taxes when they have no say in how the government is run.
My friend fired a developer for refusing to use an IDE.
I'm sorry, but no developer can ever be as productive using text editors over IDEs, once they man up and learn how to use them. For instance, renaming a class method that is called by numerous other classes is a 3 second operation in Eclipse, and possibly hours long in bash, with a much higher chance of breaking something. In fact, most refactoring operations cannot be done efficiently outside of an IDE.

The consensus among scientists is that climate change is real and man has contributed significantly to it.
The arguing around here is about whether to believe them or not and whether we need regulations in place to help the situation.
