Firing bad teachers in suburban schools might be good for inner city schools, where they have classes without teachers. In this case a bad teacher is better than no teacher. If fired teachers want to continue making a living, some may be forced to work in an inner city school where they could get a job the next day. Not exactly a win/win situation.
Code Red wreaked havoc on the routers at the place I was working for back in 2001. That was the virus that caused ISP's to block the ports for all those peronal web servers running for no reason. Well the ISP's relised that they could cut thier traffic in half by leaving the ports blocked permanently. The virus allowed an infected machine to receive remote commands via IE cgi commands. You could check the router log to see who was infected, connect to the IP with IE and read and write to thier hard drive. The virus was named by the security team that found it, they were drinking Mountain Dew Code Red at the time.
Anyone remember TD's odd direct mail tactics in the mid 90's. They had a similiar approach to what Columbia House did with music CD's. They sent out mailings that threatened to send you software that you didn't order if you didn't send back the mailer with a certain box checked. That was thier thankyou for ordering out of the catalogue.
This is not a serious article. This is a spoof of the more irritating tasks a Network Administrator (or related titles) has to do. If co-workers didn't need a reboot specialist, half of us would never have made it this far.
If this doesn't cause all large publishers to steal the idea and add digitized, "out of print books" to a section of thier websites, then they deserve what they get. Publishers were just handed a fantastic business plan to expand thier companies. I'll bet that they don't do anything but hire lawyers.
Just to make things a little clearer. The reasons that Russia invaded georgia is as follows.
- Georgia broke away from Russia in 1991, much to the dismay of Moscow - 2 seperate areas of northern Georgia that border Russia have been trying to break away from Georgia for years - One of the 2 areas is called Ossetia, it borders Russia to the north and Georgia on all other sides. - Because of a border skirmish where Georgian troops claim to have been bombed by Ossetia rebels, the Georgian military advanced in Ossetia to take control of the capitol. - Ossetia's resistance and succession attempts are mostly bankrolled by Russia and the local poloticians in Ossetia are Russian. - Because of the Georgian troops entering Ossetia (wich they claim is thier own territory, and sort of is) Russia sent thousands of troops into Ossetia and the rest of Georgia, killed thousands and destroyed Georgia's military infrastructure.
Several articles have been published stating a possibility that early humans eating plants containing psychotropic chemicals as part of thier diet for generations may have lead to advanced cognitive thinking. Psychotropics can also lead to run on sentences.
"As long as I am alive I will go on giving examinations in order to get a wife."
"For me, success is not merely about clearing the examinations. It will also throw open the doors of marriage"
This clearly shows his abnormal state of mind. Even in a far away asian country, a GED doesn't have much to do with marriage. He seems to be a man with a low IQ and/or dislexia caught up in a Labido feedback loop. File this one under abnormal psych. The tests are not anywhere near the root of the problem.
I agree that without the smell of burning carcinogens, a bar would smell much different. I do not believe that people want that smell back. Anything else would be much better. This company will be dead in 24 months. This review would have you believe that there is a need for such a device. I doubt that there is.
Micro$oft is attemting to buy Yahoo for one reason. Ever since Google has dominated the internet search engine market share, Microsoft has been dying to find a way to aquire or develope more of that market. Before Google became such a vast presence, there were many search engines dividing up the market share. Back then Microsoft wanted a larger presence too but it was tolerable that msn.com was barely in the top 10. Microsoft needs to hedge thier bets against the giant that Google has become. There was a time when microsoft had a chance to dominate the search market. That time is over. They were stomped on by google even though they forced a billion people to start thier web experience on msn.com. Someday Yahoo will be owned by Microsoft and it will not change a thing.
If this kid had written a book on big business lobbying congress, along with other corrupt ways to get politicians to vote, he would now be considered a marketing genius.
"But Microsoft has been trying to get their act together on security"
SHHHH! QUIET! You will scare away all the open source people! Even a whisper of a positive spin on Microsoft could shut this site down. As an embedded programmer over here in the Northeast I refuse to accept this as the truth, even if it is true and I see it with my own eyes. No matter how true this might be it still must be false!
I think "Lost" should be replaced with stolen. The numbers are absurdly high, if 624,000 laptops are going missing at airports each year then that is a threat to national security and the goverment should do something. This article is a troll.
"Americans can't believe this," Paul Ceruzzi, a historian of computing and curator at the National Air and Space Museum, said in an interview last week. "They think you're making it up. It really was true."
Then the article says,.Lyons sent employees to the United States to study office automation, and American experts said they should go to the University of Cambridge, where Maurice Wilkes was developing an early computer.
Seems like the historian doesn't know the history and revealed a hint of anti-american sentiment. It is my experience that any American interested in the first systems analyst wouldn' care where he/she is from.
Those of us that have been here a while, the people that used to watch the blocks move across the screen at 300 baud, can see a another of many drastic changes coming in the way the huge ISP's will handle content. There was a time when ISP's were everywhere. They were small companies with access to local dial-up node sites. Then AOL had 10 million people convinced that they were actually the whole internet. Today high speed internet has given birth to bohemoth ISPs that were huge cable/telephone/satelite companies years before. These companies may eventually package web access the same way they package movie channels. After a few years of this the smaller ISP's with open access will be back and the cycle will repeat in new and strange ways.
Well, it's about time. Science has finally started putting together logical and sane ideas about Stonehenge with evidence to prove their theory. Maybe now we can leave out Stonehenge on the brainless histories mysteries and UFO programs. Although they still discuss crop circles as alien creations even though my friend Mike is responsible for 3 of them.
-The first thing we need to ask the first aliens we meet is weather or not they accept Jesus Christ as thier savior!

I haven't used windows mail since I set up a small nt4 network for a company who refused to buy an email server back in '99.
42%?
Please. Delete this right away. did you mean 4.2%?

It's that simple.

I'm curious to what the 2% number means when market share and region figures are factored in. I'll bet it doesn't mean much.
Newsflash! 2% of the Internet is where 2% of the hackers are!
When I was in the Marine Corps we had nothing but ancient rifles and flack jackets, and we are the ones who die.
Lets not pretend that At&t employees working at $13 an hour are conspiring to keep information from you.

First the historian says,
"Americans can't believe this," Paul Ceruzzi, a historian of computing and curator at the National Air and Space Museum, said in an interview last week. "They think you're making it up. It really was true."
Then the article says, .Lyons sent employees to the United States to study office automation, and American experts said they should go to the University of Cambridge, where Maurice Wilkes was developing an early computer.

Seek professional help if you actually belive that.
Looks like Google is the new Micro$oft for Slashdotters. Any IT company that dominates the market share is the enemy?

Was there really nothing else that Gates considered a high point?"
Could we keep the Micro$oft bashing relevent please. This is nonsense.
