During the past several economically sluggish years, all across the nation, companies have figured out how to do more with less. The IRS needs that kind of leadership.
Aren't high level security breaches most likely to be due to employee's not following protocol? Having fewer employees doesn't increase that risk. Having new, inexperienced employees might.
The most popular passwords are by nature the worst. Be it "123456" or "yy447dkwumm", if it is popular, it is not a good PW.
What would interest me in addition to what are they protecting would be what percentage of accounts using those PWs is ever hacked vs. more secure PWs.
Not to mention that by the time the market supports one manufacture of 1 million units/year, there will be lots more competition at every level. Someone will start Faraday Motors and take some share as well.
It is not clear to me the benefit of a 3D printed model versus a 3D visual model displayed on a 3D screen. The latter would seem more flexible to use for analysis. I can see how the physical model would possibly benefit surgical rehearsal.
If you're self-employed, have investment income, or asset depreciation, you probably already do your taxes with a real CPA. If you aren't, you probably should.
Just for reference, $30k is the average price of a new car in the US, and considering that it's using technology that's ahead of the curve I don't think that's terrible.
This isn't to say that I'd rush out to buy one though.
I rather use the mean, not the average. I'd guess the high end prices skew the average.
^your generalizations help validate my point. You probably don't even know the differences between the weapons program waste challenges and spent nuclear fuel.
Why are people commenting on nuclear power production - TFA was about nuclear weapon production, right? Or am I just confused?
It is convenient for those with an anti nuke power agenda to conflate the two. Accuracy and truth are secondary, and the ignorance of the media makes it easy. Yes, this has nothing to do with commercial nuclear energy.
Are they going to stop at diesel fuel? What else should be on the list of things that cause gene expression changes? How long and useful would that list be?
You don't get it. If you gave him that beer from the community fund, that he himself was contributing to, he didn't get a free beer and might wonder why you were using the community chess to give him a beer, or if that was the wisest use of that money. If the state educational system is funding it, just because a school doesn't see the bill doesn't mean its free. Or, in your case, everything for the school is free because they really aren't paying for anything, they are just workers at the schools.
It certainly is a case of 'the few' making a lot of noise, and certain media outlets amplifying it. Meanwhile, the vast majority of people have no feelings at all about such a trivial thing.
It is theoretically possible, but Nuke plants differ greatly in control architecture from PLC controlled centrifuges. Nuke I&C is really comprised of separate discrete control systems, and they differ from plant to plant. You would not be able to accomplish much without hacking multiple control systems, all of which are disconnected from any accessible external network. Also, the older plants still have a ton of analog manual controls as well.
Software changes to systems very infrequent, so even if methods existed, opportunities are limited. Also, testing is done before putting systems back in to operation to ensure safety functions are working. Testing is done on a regular basis as well. Avoiding detection on these systems would be difficult, as they control logic is actually fairly straightforward (simple enough that much of it was originally done with relay logic).
The obstacles to successfully causing a safety event are significantly more challenging than what stuxnet had to deal with.

appears to be hiring very few people in IT compared to other agencies.
So that's the benchmark?

I think they got it backwards.
Once man invented tools, he finally had something worth talking about.

Sounds like something a CPA might say.

My mistake, I just typed in the wrong word. Thanks for correcting, and the smart ass quip as well.

the early naughties, those were the good ole days.

How about voice activation on "don't tase me bro"?
In this case, it doesn't matter if they're Republicans or Democrats.
Exactly. There is a reason the democrats did not push this forward when they had the Senate.

My example is a lot shorter as well!
'If you can beat free, then I'm willing to listen.'
Well, someone should tell them its not free, its just that they don't get the bill. Its not clear from the article what the actual cost is.
I guess they are pre-historic then?
The only reasonable 3G option would probably be a 3G hotspot, then you could have wireless connectivity as you please.
Les Nessman solved this problem years ago.
