From the article: arrives in an HTML-based e-mail. When will people learn to REJECT HTML-based e-mail messages without exception? How many of these schemes do we need until everybody understands that there is something badly wrong with HTML-encoded mail messages?
I do not know why the ENIAC myth still pops up from time to time. Anyway, Konrad Zuse built the first computer, called the Z1. Even his famous Z3 was completed two years before the ENIAC.
In plain English, this means if you know only your little backyard, then there is just US. Otherwise your world may include Germany, and the rest is, of course, US. Now, some people may find this funny. Others might cry. I am just confused. How can they write such code? It should read if Germany... else if US... else if... else UNKNOWN, STOP! (or use perhaps a switch/case/default statement).
The last time I put numbers like the shown 5 into code was almost three decades ago in a Basic program. I have seen much better GNU software and hope someone removes the word GNU from this project's name.
No offense, but I thought financial planning software should comply with higher standards.

All it takes to start this revolution is open source software, based on an open standard, to provide encrypted data transmission and routing, a new way of assigning hosts independently of central nameservers and static routing tables plus an interface to the Internet (call it Internet Classic). All components already exist. Important is that this software would have to come with all new Linux distributions by default and only require a simple Yes or No from the user to enable package routing plus a simple option to make a computer a new host, if requested by the owner of the computer.

At first I thought it is a bit strange that Kimm Groshong, author of the "New Scientist" article, refers to an interview with a guy in the US instead of someone of the team in Germany. But when I read the article I noticed that Kimm Groshong cannot even spell Saarbrücken (or Saarbruecken, but not Saarbrucken). It gets better: Kimm Groshong does not know how to spell Max Planck! Perhaps journals like the "New Scientist" should not be understood as first source of information.
Some people like to argue that the current administration is actually increasing funding for research, something in the order of billions of dollars. True, missions like the one to Mars, which may not be feasible, do get more attention. Now, let me illustrate what effect the actual decrease of funding in nuclear research has on science. Last year, Dr. Christoph Leemann, Director of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) sent a clear message (read it!) to all staff and users at JLab. This is alarming! For most people outside the scientific community it is probably hard to imagine what the loss of 45 jobs at JLab means. The situation at other labs, such as the Brookhaven National Laboratory is very similar, if not worse. Let me assure you that this cut has serious consequences for a lot of people at many research labs and universities in the US. We will see how this changes education in the US.

Oh, back then someone showed me BASCOM80 for CP/M. It was so bad, I decided that the cost of an 8" floppy would outweigh the value of this product. Of course, these days media are much cheaper, which might be the reason why the makers of BASCOM80 are still so popular.

But with smaller transistors you also have smaller distances in between, thus reduced emission (power). The question is which effect has the larger gradient.
But who takes books from a public library? Nobody I know, because people either no longer read or they do not like the censored offer in public libraries. Distributing stuff from the RIAA monopoly seems to be the new national pastime. Perhaps the public libraries should offer classes in file sharing to attract new members.
Our lab relies heavily on contractors. This is how management tries to safe money. One day the lab found a cheaper cleaning company. Soon people noticed that their offices were not cleaned anymore. The janitors were still the same, mostly, except that they now had to work for the cheaper company. It turned out that the company would not provide enough clean mobs. It got so bad that the janitors had to bring their own mobs! Eventually the trained janitors started to quit and got replaced with even cheaper workers. Things got worse. Your company is treating you the same way. Are you a janitor? Well, at least our janitors did not have to ask/. for help. Wake up!
Great. How about attacks on EFI by malware? An iMac costs just a few hundred bucks. Bad enough. But, what about those shiny new Itanium systems with EFI for 10 grants per box?
