Do you mean Solaris with still has rpc bugs even though they have been fixed several times.
Their new svc stuff is great too since if you can hack the one file you can keep running external services and the sysadmin will never know. Nothing like binary files that are always getting rewritten that can be hacked. Thanks to the sun guys for replacing init with something more stupid than the windows registry.
I've always found an uptime of more than a few months tends to mean that sysadmin skills are seriously lacking. Sure a few systems can run for years but most real world systems need patches and changes and proper testing means a "reboot test" just to verify that changes to the live system are in non volatile. If the system requirements for a system have changed in the last year and the box hasn't had a full test, then there is a major problem.
I know traffic engineers that don't understand compound interest. They claim that going a small bit faster won't shorten your trip by much but when stop lights compound by more than 50%, every missed light means your trip takes less time. That results in a lower total number of road users over time which results in a lower traffic density.
What I find odd about the Vodafone NZ plan is it lets you call phones in other countries for the same rate as calling a local phone and it roams to a few other countries at the same rate. Their rate is several times more than Vodafones rates in Egypt though so I think they are taking advantage of their almost monopoly.
The house of reps is too big to do anything useful as it is. Making it bigger only will make its internal politics more complex and as a result it will do less so maybe your right.
Does anyone else think this is a bad idea? While people can't see IR, a strong ir will trigger the iris contraction which will reduce visibility. Maybe its too much time in laser labs with IR lasers and other light sources but I feel an odd sensation in my eyes with ir sources slightly brighter than an IR remote control.
They also appear to be testing to see if they can still send the entire message (helo, mail form, rcpt to,data ) in one tcp package. I'm thinking that a number of scamers are gearing for that since it seems to work. Luckily its trivial to check the size of the receive buffer and blow the message away.
Why use an IR remote? Get one of the powerpoint presentation devices that work like an 4 button keyboard and use it. It will also have a cool laser pointer too!
The geeks couldn't even agree on how to punish Microsoft in a way to break up their monopoly so how do you expect the anyone else to come up with a good plan? Most geeks I know thought I was wrong for proposing that the home os be given to one company and the business one to another. Give word and excel to two different companies. Same with their games. The result would have been 5 new companies all competing with each other but even the geeks objected to that. Too bad the judge from the Standard oil days isn't still around.
You can look at other airlines around the world that use the old TWA style system and compare them to the airlines using the Southwest style system. The ones using the southwest system are doing well and the ones using the old steam ship ticking model are having huge problems.
I still don't understand why they put the plane departure time on the ticket when they should put the checkin time.
I don't care about airlines anymore. I have a pilots license and only use them for very long flights or overseas flights.
I don't know about you, but I like the plausible deniability of the existing system. I fear banks that have very strong online controls because when they make mistakes, they will simply say "the computer proved it was you" and there is far less recourse. Its the same reason that I used credit cards on line and won't ever use a debit card on line. The credit card is their money, the debit card controls my money.
The only advantage it has ever shown was that small kids are far more likely to have an accident with a car in the mornings when its dark than any other time however current rules are about 3 weeks off on one of the changes so it ends up killing and maiming more kids than it should. Maybe someone shoudl think of the children.
How about farmers? If they deal with cows, they get up when the cows get up. Today that means they would have been up by 5:00 am and since the Solstice is this week, it won't be dark until after 9:00 pm. For some reason cows don't pay attention to clocks.
Diebold wasn't a legal person when the constitution was written down and had the the idea of millions of corporations acting like legal people entered the minds of the writers of the document, I expect there would have been far more words in it. I also expect those words to effectively give the corporate death penalty to the company for doing what it did.
As it stands now, it appears that only a person can be guilty of treason even though the courts have ruled that a corporation is a person. I'm just wondering when US companies will get the right to vote. Right now companies in Melb Australia have the right to appoint someone to vote for them in some elections.
Why is antivirus software included with.mac? Their are remote exploits for every other OS including things such as Solaris, AIX and Linux. It seems reasonable to assume that one will be found for OSX and they need a way to stop it in a timely manner without giving a third party an incentive to take advantage of such a bug. The point is if a company will make a huge amount of cash selling anti-virus software for the mac and they can find just one exploit, then they can encourage others to find more.
So the point of including the snake oil is to make sure others don't. Its a developer base Apple doesn't need.
Since you can't seem to use google yourself here are some hints: Research the story behind this: http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_221.htm. One of the authors did admit to spreading it because they were getting paid to do so. It was key to the start of Mcafee antivirus software. Also read the discussion of the Com-Shar hacking reward. Look for some of the discussion about a publication called "Big Guns Take Aim at Virus" involving DARPA.
There is plenty of evidence out there that many of the viruses in the the wild today exist only because an anti-virus vendor paid someone to write them.
Yes, but the check is a paper trail that opens many doors in discovery and the resulting cascade of evidence will push the argument past just speculation.
The point isn't to win in court. The point is to convince Apple that they need to build their own antivirus stuff and include it with the OS (current and past ones).
Sun is doing this with Solaris 10 but that doesn't go far enough. I should be able to log into any sun box and type something like ' find/usr/*bin -type f -perm +0111 -exec md5likehashprog {} \; | mail checkup@sun.com' and get a report back of any security issues. This is just like taking a 1984 ford into the dealer and asking if there are any outstanding recalls. They are required by existing law to do it but they don't.
I've been stacking my cards in my favor for a while and I've given up just collecting cards against MS. I'm collecting them all, Apple, MS, Sun, IBM, SCO or whatever.
Providing those details in public would violate the privacy laws of a number of countries I like to visit and I'm not about to weaken a future argument to prove to you that I've got the bit of paper. The anti-virus company was around since at least 1987 and there are a few examples on google that point out that many of the released viruses of that time were there because the virus companies were in effect paying students to write them. This is why most of them officially claim they will not pay for turning in new viruses.

If the iworks thing is true and this new office suite comes with the next version of os x, I will start throwing away PCs at work.

More stuff has been moved for most major dam projects as well as the panama canal. Its been done before, it can be done again.

Don't forget that RSA's security is also based on the concept that keys are 1:1 and they aren't.

The GPL doesn't protect anyone who is hunting for GPLed code inside another product. It needs a reverse engineering clause.
They don't even seem to know that BSD even exists.
Look for fortune databases...

It doesn't matter... All but one of those is in a password cracking dictionary I've got.
That might just force stock holders to think about who they are investing in a bit more. I don't see that as a bad thing.
