Haha...just followed up on this thread on/....point is, this incident is 3 days old now. Media was poor in following this up in the first place.
And as to Orissa, well, its my homestate. You missed out many of God's wrath items Orissa gets to bear....extreme summer heat - 50C, annual floods, lighting strikes, starvation deaths, killing of Olive Ridley turtles, mangrove forest destruction, etc.
You need to watch a Hindi movie to clear an indigestion:)
How crazy is the idea of having a hardware based(where all security tools are hardcoded to the chip, and there is some way of updating, lik BIOS flashing) security system installed on machines, rather than using software to detect flaws? Also, do you see buffer-overflow related problems decreasing? As a followup, is gcc a secure enough compiler, or are commercial compilers like say Intel's C++ compiler more effective?
