Either you don't get it, or you are delibrately twisting the point. What the previous poster was saying is that you cannot publish claims about a person without proof. You can make a statement like you do not support a politician due to his beliefs, but you cannot write that you do not support a politician because you know that he is involved in drug smuggling, unless you have proof. If you do publish an allegation without having proof, you can be sued for libel.
Good human pronouncable (thus easy to remember) passwords can be generated using tools like these it is even a part of debian (apt-get install apg). try it out, the generated password are generally very good, mix of cases, numbers etc.
Just so that we don't get all gung ho over the news, here's a very sad story.. A girl committed suicide when she got a result over SMS that she had failed. She had in fact passed the exams.
If you knew how the protection is done you woudlnt be so critical of it. The core of AMD's Enhanced Virus Protection is the a NX bit which specifies whether a page of memory is executable or not. This way, even if buffer overruns occur in that area of memory, it wouldnt be executed. I am not really sure how this is a bad thing.
With articles likethis, isn't is obvious Enderle just wants to garner attention. And slashdot seems to be giving him just that. I wonder whether he wants to float an IPO soon, and pull of another SCO.
I have never lived in Bangalore, just visited it once or twice. The money flowing in there does have some effect on the living standards of the locals. So rentals are up, prices of most goods are higher, and in general there is more circulation of money. The state of Karnataka itself is quite big though, and I am not sure how much of a ripple effect is taking place.
The money from middle classes does trickle down a bit, but in general Indians are not spendthrifts, so they would rather put all their money in a bank.
The states which are governed by communist parties (West Bengal and Kerala once in a while), have also started following the examples of Karnataka and Andrha Pradesh (where Hyderabad is located). Like China, communism has evolved to capitalist socialism:).
The figures you quote are true, but there is one major factor missing. To qualify as middle class in India, you don't need to earn a lot. About Rs. 10,000 (approx $250) a month, and you will be considered lower-middle class. At over Rs. 50,000 a month (approx $1100) a month, and you may well be categorised as upper middle class. So the US middle class has much more buying power than the Indian middle class.
Generally speaking, the lower classes in India are poorer and less educated than higher classes. This has lead to a situation where the middle and upper classes are the oringinal high-class people (brahmins, kshatriyas etc), while the poorer people are from the lower classes (the shudras).
Therefore it is very rare to see a lower class person take up a white collar job since their education levels are much lower. The government on India does reserve certain seats in colleges etc for these classes (analogous to affirmative action in US), but the quality of such graduates is questionable.
I have a few friends from "lower classes", and among the younger educated folks, there isnt as much discrimination as before. But overall, the situation for the lower classes is not heart warming.
Sun has also added a new security tool with Solaris Privileges. This lets the root user create sub roots that can have permission, for example, to patch applications but not to touch hardware components.
This is a very interesting feature. Except for using sudo, does anyone know of any effort going on in linux to provide a similar feature ? Maybe Sun can port it to linux just to prove how OSS friendly they are;)

This site doesn't strike me as being very different from Google News. The only difference seems to be that Google includes short captions for each item, while this one just shows you a picture.
If they could just include some text/descriptions etc., it could be a worthy competitor to google.
The article mentions that SCO is trying to stall as much as possible. Probably the executives at Santa Clara have'nt sold off all their shares yet. Once that is done, you can be sure to see the cases flying off the shelves.
The Register reported on 28 March this year that a service pack 2 build has been leaked. So if the Service Pack is more or less ready, what is Microsoft going to incorporate into it in 1.5 years ?
If you wanted to spice up your resume for Peter Jackson, he's already done with LOTR. But you could try convincing him to take you as a dwarf in "The Hobbit":)

Quick, someone call up that SCO lawyer. Tell them that OpenBSD has got recognition from DARPA for security. I am sure they will file a claim of $1 billion against them too. The next day, the U.S. army will "accidently" test a MOAB on SCO hearquarters.
We will no longer need to worry about the lawsuit they filed against IBM.

I am sorry..all I see are numbers floating around. Does someone have a "human readable" summary of this ?
