The regenerated nerves also carried normal electrical signals, suggesting that they had rewired themselves into the brain, although the connections were a bit scrambled.
Bah. The concept of a scoop is as dead as a dead tree, so to speak. Noone gets an exclusive anymore. News is news. It's instantaneous, it's worldwide, and it's (still) free. Sadly, I suspect the management here has been asked by several networks to stop their repostings, if for no other reason than the slashdot affect.
Er, I was actually trying to be serious here. Slashdotting could be a real profit-generating, and instantly-deployable network testing tool!
;)
Seriously, could any of the projects I hear mentioned here on/. be considered as a contender for the testbed, provided the bandwidth/latency will improve the result? Gene searching, ET searching, or any of the other distributed problems?
But the purchase transaction for the disposable phone still gives better trackability than a payphone, imho. (Not to mention the ease of snooping on cellnet versus tracing wire-calls)
They're taking proposals testbed projects. See the iGRID project page under the startap URL.
From the iGRID page:
How would you use a 2.5Gb (10Gb? 40Gb?) global testbed? How will you change your application codes? How will you expand the complexity of the problem you are solving? How will you take advantage of the fact that the networks are now faster than the computers driving them?
If you've got a site that uses only GET requests for specific static files, or if you use POST to individual CGI/Servlet/JSP, then things are pretty easy using any number of logparsers or database tools (if you're logging to a DB). Many implementations of this type also pass arguments appended to the request string, which puts more information in the log.
Otoh, if you use a single driver script/servlet/jsp, and dynamically produce content based on form variables, then your driver must handle the reporting, because the server log isn't going to report anything except the base URL for every request. In this case, your driver needs to log what is happening before it serves up the appropriate content.
In a few years, they wont even need to open your suitcase, just put on VR helmets with the passenger and ask them to explain every piece of luggage as it rolls by on a VR conveyor belt, after being unpacked with detectors and fast graphics cards.
Please, ask our senator to consider carefully our "face" on the internet when making the law. The entire world is out there watching every move that is made in here. US citizens are not the only ones in the world dedicated to liberty; there's a portion of the population of people in every country who believe in our ideals. Depending upon physical deployment of the these same people, the Internet is sometimes the only tool that lets us them talk to each other.
Reread all the great replies above and below. Then take a good look at security tools, and then tell your colleagues that the best tools and techniques were developed with the cooperation and a shared dream of privacy/protection that the entire world shares. Extremely brilliant and caring people from everywhere have made network security possible.
Recognize the shared effort, and common dream in here, and it might, just might, someday propogate into reality.
I guess it's been said in other ways, but our government must accept and be OK with the fact that encryption is for everyone. Not just the good guys. Furthermore, government must accept that encryption means that they will not be able to monitor everything, or everyone.

I found several notes on the openssl users list which seem to indicate that AES/Rijndael support will be available in OpenSSL 0.9.7. This has not been released yet, but is reportedly available in the CVS area.
Make sure you have paper plates which can support the weight of at least 3 mini-hotdogs, broccoli and some ranch dressing at the same time. Also, avoid slippery glasses.
Slashdot Mirror
It was, of course, the cauliflower and carrot sticks that I meant.
I have accepted the sourceforge cookie permanently.
I noticed this headlined on their tech page, (login, blah) but I cant get interested enough to go read it. Color me sardonic.

Get a piece of I2 while it's open.

A slashdotting should show them if it works.
Wait a minute... I thought this was for research.

Aromatherapy
Was some heavy shit. Took me damn near an hour just to meta-moderate a bit for it.
Hmmm. Yes, I see it now. >> TODO
Er, I was trying to link floppyfw, which most probably know about, I suppose. Oh well. Moderators, you know what to do.
Yup, cool stuff.
I only leave /. to feed the baby.
Sure makes repacking a breeze!

You'll come a-seizing matilda, with me.
The data is already available for anyone in at least three individual states.

It seems to be open, and acceptable to alot of people. More information on the cipher is to be found here.
See this article from last week. Everything from secureId to distribution rights is discussed.
