Another alternate opinion, since we are at this. NK was responsible, the NSA actually as planted beacons and by spreading the information they expect the NK to take action to secure its systems and upgrade the old technology beacons doing so. Wiping the old OS and technology and replace it with newer systems and pieces of software already contaminated by the NSA. NSA is then forcing an upgrade to its own beacons.
Not actually true. You are free to insult everyone in the street. In fact, all religious people are doing it on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. I may say to someone he is an asshole and when the religious people are looking at me as doomed to burn in the hell because I am a low value life, they are doing the same.
What I cannot do is to harass people in the street, threaten their life or do defamation. Insulting someone is not defamation. Following someone and insulting him repeatedly is harassment. But I can certainly say to anyone "go fuck yourself". I cannot say that to a policeman however beacause he represents authority.
"We kind of rediscovered the mainframe," says Peri.
Everytime IBM announced a new mainframe line of products they hired an "external" consultant to say exactly the same bullshit. Since 1990, they announced the rediscovery of the mainframe at least five times. IBM is addicted to the mainframe given the large chunk of revenues associated to it. So, they serve us the same marketing bullshit each time.
Neither Hawkings. The summary, as usual, is completely fu..ed. The article never said AI experts blah, blah, blah, it says "Experts (in whatever) are blah, blah, blah..."
Two observations here:
Have your summary correctly summarizes the article
I don't remember how many times this has been discussed here, there is no need to post a redundant subject each time Hawking is farting
I am pretty much tired to hear the same thing over and over again from this guys who doesn't know what he is talking about.
Worse, I wonder about these guys claiming here on/. they are researchers in strong AI or students in strong AI, what are you talking about guys? There is no such thing except in your own imagination.
"If we can't get the storage of nuclear waste from weapons and power production right, then we're in a real pickle. A terrible radioactive pickle."
This is an overreaction. Even if you get nuclear waste storage right, accidents may still happen. Overall, nuclear is still safer than any other source of energy so far, including all nuclear accidents since the discovery of the radioactivity. The point is not accidents should never happen, they should be rare and we should handle them properly.
It depends, there is still a lot of hand saws hanging around. I particular, japanese hand saws are a good seller for cabinet making. I mean for craftsmen, not at the industrial level. Hand saws to cut metal are still common.
I came too to post the same thing. The way the write state the problem using the percentages is flawn while he argues it is a better way to look at the "problem". He said the constant dollars figure doesn't picture it right because what these dollars can buy is not the same. The percentage picture doesn't correct this bias, if any, anyway. Even further, he then said we are getting more for our dollars and it is then a chance because the percentage of money we get is so low. This article is just crappy and the argumentation is just smoke. The constant dollars is the right picture to look at for this kind of analysis.
QNX if BlackBerry does the right steps right now. Next question!
Okay, I will explain. Because QNX has the track records, the reliability, the realtime features, the small footprint, the legal backing required to win there. If a house accidentally burn down to ground, with or without fatalities, the OS provider may be liable for such an accident if someone can demonstrate a glitch, bug, malfunction, etc of the OS is at the origin of the fire. It is not a playground for kids and QNX is well in advance to any other racers.
The hilarious thing about your post is Labatt's is brewed in London, Ontario and actually not the top seller in Quebec. Quebec is the land of Molson and many fine local beers from micro-breweries. The Molson family is the owner the Canadiens de Montréal hockey club and part of the province's history since 1786. Labatt was founded in 1847 in London, Ontario. It is only in 1954 Labatt decided to open a brewery in Quebec. There is more licensed breweries in Quebec than in any other province in Canada, Ontario is second.
An evidence qualifies as is when there is a lawsuit or it is known a lawsuit is imminent. When someone uses anything for illegal activities, they are not evidences until there is a lawsuit. An evidence is something you want to show during the proceedings of a lawsuit. Without a lawsuit, there is no such thing like evidences.
There is no room for abuse. You haven't read the article or didn't take enough attention to the argument. If the defendant had destroyed the hard drive while the lawsuit was proceeding or even with the intention to destroy evidence knowing a lawsuit was imminent, the outcome would have been completely different. The defendant's ass was saved because the hard drive was destroyed or sent to recycle BEFORE any lawsuit and BEFORE he even knows a lawsuit is imminent.
You should have read the article. The argument is about what the defendant knows and the intention. The drive was sent to recycle BEFORE the defendant even knows a litigation is imminent. Hence, it is not possible to argue the defendant destroyed an evidence while he didn't know it was to become an evidence. The hard drive was destroyed in good faith by the defendant without an intention to interfere with legal procedures since there wasn't any at the time and he wasn't even aware any was eminent.
She is, read again. She even complains her young son asked what it was, about the laptop. I don't know how old is her young son, but I don't see much difference between a 2013 laptop and a 2014 laptop, in particular it is not like 10 years ago when after 18 months your laptop was obsoleted by the new faster CPU on the market. Today, we have reached a plateau, I have an even older laptop than hers and I don't see why I should change for another one, I will not get a better performance or the gain will be so tiny it doesn't worth to bother.
blackberries on the other hand, i heard a story back in 2007 that the entire email infrastructure at the time ran off of *two* machines (two physical machines). one for the US, one for the rest of the world. i trust that the whitehouse email doesn't go through a single server. that would be... bad.
This has nothing to do with the BlackBerry as a solution and everything to do with the infrastructure they put in place to support them. It can be fixed without changing any BlackBerry.
Exactly that and the article is full of bullshit. It mentions floppy disks, nowhere it is explained where they are still using them and for what purpose. It may be a marginal usage and for good reasons as well or it may be wide spread and completely idiotic. Nobody can judge from the article, the floppy disk is mentioned in the beginning and the end of the article. For the BlackBerries, there is currently new models and I don't see why they should switch to something else given the security required. Perhaps being a former exec from Google she is a little bit in conflit with the interests of her former employer.
What's the point about a 2013 laptop? I am very sorry, but as a CTO she doesn't need the latest technology for herself to enjoy, left this to the staff that really need it.
Last thing, a CTO with background in mechanical engineering and no real experience in IT, since she was heading a research division at Google, not the IT department. I am not sure this nomination was a good one. There is many other women better qualified for the job out there. With her background, if I was a CIO or CTO of another government division, I am not sure I would embrace everything in her vision.
Is/. becoming some kind of stackoverflow.com? I mean, this kind of question doesn't deserve to make its path to/., it is a trivial question with a very limited number of choices and not really distro related, rather than GUI related with three choices.
For touch screen, basically whatever the underlying distro the GUI choices are latest versions of Gnome, KDE or Unity. Otherwise Android may be an option. I believe the OP get lost with the distros, the choice doesn't revolve around a specific distro, it is rather than which GUI do you consider the best for you? Then check all your hardware is supported. If none of the GUI satisfies you, stick with Windows 8.1.
Improper subclassing. bagel::toast() should be inherited from bread::toast() and you haven't to rewrite the whole thing, only let it know to toast on side.
Left Putin alone! The idea is from Snowden.

Even a paintball gun would do just fine with the extra bonus it will ruin the camera lens.

Given the track record of Flash, I would say they patched 9 and introduced 18.

Well, who remember the sound of the wooly mammouth banging its partner?
Bad idea, I rather than suggest to sentence them to draw Mahomet until death.
Who f... cares? We are not in Middle-Ages anymore, it is about time you take note of it.

Someone must realize NSA leaked documents by Snowden are now out dated in some areas. Some security related bugs were patched since then.
