I need to know how to use the DOI system to locate articles that are hidden behind paywall or walled-gardens
Not that I'm cheapskate or something, but there _are_ a lot of very crucial articles that are not available to the public, and I'm thinking to look into the DOI to dig out those articles
The piece from Bloomberg is one of the lousiest journalism there is
Putting blame on U.K.'s Gamma Group ain't gonna make the world better
And those activists --- if they are real ACTIVE-ists, --- they would know that activism using only their mouths to blame Gamma Group ain't gonna bring in any change
I was an activist myself in younger days, and we didn't do 'activism by mouth' - we did it with everything - even by fighting fire with fire
If those that we oppose use technology, such as cyber-spying and wire-tapping, we employed the same in launching our counter-strikes (Yes, some of those counter-strikes were illegal)
All I can see, from TFA, is that those "activists" are nothing but lamers and blamers
I'm glad to see this upvoted. We have a real problem in the world today, with islamists terrorizing americans and taking over foreign nations -- despite those who desperately try to pretend that fear of mass murder is "islamophobia."
However, consider this: what happens if, after Obama's administration, islamists suceed in taking over America?
I am VERY GRATEFUL for you to bring this up !!
The O'bummer administration is the most dangerous administration America has ever had
Looking at what they (O'bummer and his European allies) had done for the past 2 years and we see a pattern:
They have engaged in an operation that they've cooked up -
The Arab Spring
They did it under the disguise of "overthrowing dictators" in the Middle-East, but in actuality, they are feeding the Christian minorities living in those countries to the barbaric Islamic wolves !!
Look at Egypt -
While Mubarak wasn't the nicest guy around, he managed to keep the Islamic terrorists at bay, and in doing so, the Coptic Christians in Egypt got to live in relative peace
After the so-called "Arab Spring", what happened?
Egypt was handed to the Islamic Brotherhood on a silver plate - the same Islamic Brotherhood that has sponsored countless number of Islamic terrorism throughout the world - They are everywhere, from Pakistan to UK to Indonesia to Yemen, to Germany, to Syria, to Argentina, to Libya, and so on
So what will happen to the millions of Coptic Christians still staying in Egypt? Nobody cares ! At least not the O'bummer administration and his anti-Christian allies in EU
Same thing happened in Libya - immediately after the dispose of Gaddafi Christian churches were bombed, and innocent Christians were slaughtered
Same thing happened in Tunisia - Jewish and Christians face imminent danger after the dictator was thrown out
Same thing gonna happen to the religious minorities in Syria not that long in the future
I am not supporting dictator, mind you, but I am pragmatic enough to understand that in situation whereby the vast majority of the population turned out to be of the Islamic faith, you need someone who is more ruthless than those Islamic terrorists to keep the society in order.
Yes, in places like that, dictators are actually useful, or the society gonna break down, much like what is happening in Libya and in Northern Mali
Get it wrong, and things come out like this (just pretend the perpetrator of this "workplace violence" who was shouting "Allah akbar!" as he shot down American soldiers, and in direct contact with an Al Qaeda trainer and facilitator prior to the attack, was really involved in terrorism.):
There will be those who will terrorize the populace - even in countries as draconian as China or Iran, they _do_ have terrorists of their own (not counting the government, that is)
On the other hand, it does not take NSA to flag out potential trouble makers such as the guy you outlined above - based on his profile we already can guess the eventual outcome - that guy had been a supporter of Islamic terrorism all the while
Anything transmitted online - whether it be VOIP or cleartext or whatever - can be tapped
Even when you tunnel your channel, even when you employed all the evading/security technologies that you can think of, if TPTB wants to know what you do, they could find ways to _CAN_ tap you
But of course, we _are_ talking about Microsoft in this case, which makes it even more poignant to understand how frail our security situation really is, online
I can't answer every problem you bring to me, but I can at least hear you out and make suggestions or see what I can do on your behalf.
Telling me I'm the greatest person you ever worked for is the worst thing to say if it's not true - it makes me think I'm doing a good job when I'm not. I realize not all managers are like me, but I have to imagine that many of us want feedback, be it good or bad.
Dear Sir, You are an exception to the rule You may be that one gem out of the one gazillion rocks that genuinely want to hear the truth But my original advice still stands - for the rest of the 99.999999% of the bosses do not want to know the truth, and I ain't gonna want anyone to get hurt just because they thought truth is more important then their own future
I disagree. I think that most people are happy to act on rational, substantiated and objective criticisms. I am, you are, and so is the OP.
I am no longer young, and my decades of experience in office politics tells me that your ideals is blocking you from gaining a more thorough insight into true Human Nature

Meanwhile, concerns are rising in the European Union over what political observers say is a lack of respect in Romania for the fundamental principles of democracy."
It is fundamentally funny reading the above quote
It is European Union itself that has to explain to the world what "Democracy" is all about, when they legally replaced democratic elected governments with so-called "technocrats", because of money
The more advance the science we got, the more people we gonna have, and the more pressure the human population gonna put on the ecology of Planet Earth
Link below illustrates the link between population explosion since the dawn of modern industrial revolution
""Modern humans have been around for about 2.2 million years. By the dawn of the first millennium AD, estimates place the total world human population at between 150 Ã" 200 million, and 300 million in the year 1,000"
"At the dawn of the Industrial Revolution in the mid 1700s, the worldÃ(TM)s human population grew by about 57 percent to 700 million."
"It reached one billion in 1800."
"The birth of the Industrial Revolution altered medicine and living standards, resulting in the population explosion that would commence at that point and steamroll into the 20th and 21st centuries.
"In only 100 years after the onset of the Industrial Revolution, the world population would grow 100 percent to two billion people in 1927 (about 1.6 billion by 1900). "

You said:
The government should be brought to justice...
Well, how would you define "Jusice" ??
Does the decision of court / judge amount to "Justice" ?
If yes, then there are thousands and thousands of Judges / Courts that would side with Uncle Sam
If no, then how are you going to achieve "Justice" ??
Telling the court that you're going to circumvent the law in the case you lose probably isn't going to be so swell.
Except when you are Uncle Sam
You said this:
Microsoft (currently) does prevent or even hinder any one of those alternatives on x86
Then you turned around and said this:
Microsoft isn't preventing anyone from doing anything, and you do not need to interact with microsoft at all to install other OSes.
Please elucidate what are you trying to get at
Thanks !

TFA talks about surgery to take out the magnets
Are the surgeries truly needed?
I have the impression that perhaps it maybe a case of "over prescription", but then, I am no medical doctor
Just like everything else, the use of jargon comes in several forms -
Use it sparingly and the jargon can "enhance" the article
Use it to the extreme and lay people get confused to the point of giving up reading the article altogether
Even the way one uses everyday language can effect the read-a-bility of the article, believe it or not
... attending one of these things puts your identity front & centre
So true !
I've been in this field for decades and I've my fair share of, for lack of a better word, hacking
But I've never ever attend any official "hacker conference"
I treasure my privacy too much to break my anonymity (and no, I'm not part of that "anonymous" movement either)

When did it become my responsibility to make cops happy?
You _are _ responsible to keep yourself safe, aren't you?
P.S. Slashdot blocks me, after a true comment they didn't like.
When did that happen?!!
What type of "value" they really think they truly share with us?
Spying on your own neighbors?
Frame innocent people up with trumped up charges?
Keep track of every-single-thing on every-single-person on earth?
Not science, technology. Learn the difference.
Since you want to split hair -
Where are you going to get any advancement in technology without advancement and more understanding in Science?

my inability to get a job may be due in part to my reluctance to even slightly bend the facts
If that is true, Spock would never land his position in the Enterprise
Say nothing but good things -
Tell the boss how good they are even tho they are the worst type of asshole in the universe
Thanks the co-workers for their generous help and guidance even tho they are clumsy back-stabbers
Give great praises the company even tho they are giving you the pink slip
That will make them happy, and happy people (often) do not find time to do more harm to you, leaving you plenty of peaceful time to look for new jobs

I live in a farm, I have to drive miles and miles of dirt road to get to the nearest tarmac pavement thoroughfare
The biggest "dirt" on my car are DIRT itself - that is, soil and mud, caking on the side and beneath of my car
As they dried, they got hard
Even if I stray them off, they still leave the reddish stain behind
