I am 100% convinced nothing bad would have happened if she said "If my Children have to be patted down or should enter an backscatter device, when we will just not enter the security zone" and turned around. There is no law which forces you to continue passing trough the security once you are in an airport.
But getting verbally abusive to the employees and trying to film in a zone where filming is prohibited, is just not a good idea. The men or women standing there may be not very well paid, have a boring job and are constantly in contact with people with a bad mood. They have no power for decisions at all, and verbally threatening them is not helping anybody.
In todays world, if you believe that somebody is not doing you right, ask very politely for his boss.
Getting an exception upon a failed cast is ok for me.

Allright. A little race segregation? A little "women should not drive cars because they could be offended if men shouth nasty things on the road"? Black programmers can only if they are not offended by a library called libnigger? Women should only could if they are not offended by libbitch? You know, i dont like to work with people who would be offended if you call their library libcartman.
You may think you words contain some wisdom, but believe me, racist and sexist assholes exists in rough amounts and you are in no sense special.
I personally worked with women and Asians on software and to be honest - i never had to restrict the names i give. If you are not able to talk in a acceptable way without focusing explicitly on being not embarrassing, then just stay in your basement.
Why does oracle not go after the manufacturing companies? I think they would all settle immediately. They would even plainly buy J2ME to put it on the device.
No, with the new nonrelational database you dont need to think about types, so i heard. Just spill whatever you have and use whatever keys you have. No need to prove it works.

No. the point is: is giving any irritating name the core philosophy of FOSS? For me it is not. Giving an irritating name to something you want to promote is plainly stupid.

To be honest, i believe the name could hinder adoption.
But i honestly must admit that i never got why you would call your software in any weirdly conotated way. You will just narrow the circle of users. Before i have to explain inside a company where non-geeks also participate in meetings that i use libupskirt i would rename it and use it under the other name.
The CEO and the power user were mortified that they couldn't figure out which button to push, says Laping, but this particular machine was a Dell rack server with a flat design rather than the tower configuration with which the men were more familiar.
The two kept pushing a button that was for adjusting the display, not turning the unit on and off. When nothing happened, they panicked.
Wait! The "Power User" has never seen the system restarting? He did not even know how to find the manual? The CEO and the power user where not able to take a photo and mail it so that a nice red mark could be placed and sent back, but they panicked over a server which is down?
I think my father made me some LEGO bricks with LEDs and lamps when i was four and i remember that i was very fascinated by the fact that some devices which have a polarity, and some don't. I for sure expressed that in another way, but testing how to attach the red/black wires to batteries to make the LEDs shine kept me busy and quiet for some time. And my development was completely average.
My theory is: give children many kinds of toys. You will figure out if its to early if they don't play with it.
it will grow with time and then the same problems will exist again.
What we need is the idea that managing access to networks is important.
Use your own CA, use big (maybe even one time pad) keysizes, make firewalls restrictive, make it mandatory that all systems are are managed by an experienced administrator, use TCPI, make encryption mandatory, and educate all employees to do it the right way or ask for help. Educated everybody in controlling the access to documents correctly (no: oh, lets just make it readable for all philosphy). Create a climate in which the IT deparment listens to what the users want to do instead of defining that they dont want anything complicated.
Oh. You say that costs a lot? Yes, that costs a lot. but it solves the problem. The steps which you need to verify that somebody whom you communicate with on the "internet nr.2" are exactly the same ones you need to verify that you are talking to the right person on the normal internet.
Well. then they convert from one db to another. So what. its not like that would be a completely new thing to happen, and i am sure that oracle or any other big db provider will send experts to help with the task.
At least remove the electrolyte capacitors and the cmos buffer battery before cutting.....
I understand that you use a complicated technological product, which is considered to be special waste, without having read the necessary documents on ho to process (if that is possible) this product.
As long as we control the IT desktop monoculture it will be always a better investment for botnet operators in searching new holes than in hardening their botnets.

If you have a bad cable/connector, 10MB/s can be much more reliable than 100MB/s.
It would not be legally trivial, for a number of reasons.

You are free to change the name then.

Change is being seen or spin doctored if somebody looses power. Like:
-Trains pose a economic threat to anybody who want to transport people by horse-carriages.
-electricity poses a threat to people who distribute energy in another way
-the internet poses a threat to people who possess already other media
-green energy poses a threat to everybody who invested in traditional power plants
I dont think that something which I published and something which is not meant to be published should be threated the same way.
If you believed that posting on your own facebook page is meant to be as secret as using you ISPs router, then you should not visit a University.
(Slightly cynical:)
Ill just circumvent these troubles by using analog VGA connectors.
At least these work.

No. And honestly, when i look at some of the artworks made from garbage i have wondered already.

The fact is: there is no single best solution. Specific bottlenecks will require specific solutions.
Well cockoo-land and costs a lot are the same.
If i would start a fun, interesting project, and it would exceed 100000 - 1000000 Million users, i would think what to do.
it will grow with time and then the same problems will exist again.
