  1. More than an hobby: Join AAVSO on Ask Slashdot: How To Pick Up Astronomy and Physics As an Adult? · · Score: 1

    The American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO) is a non-profit worldwide scientific and educational organization of amateur and professional astronomers who are interested in stars that change in brightness—variable stars. See http://www.aavso.org/visionmis.... It is not true that today only pro are doing useful work in astronomy. Variable stars are multiple and need long observations: I know people doing as a nice hobby and ... publishing: see http://www.dppobservatory.net/

  2. the future of public-key cryptology on Math Advance Suggest RSA Encryption Could Fall Within 5 Years · · Score: 1

    Many people in industry are thinking that we need to be very careful in the near-future when using public-key cryptography. A catastrophic event is a possibility. See the next month workshop about catastrophic events related to cryptography and their possible solutions: CATACRYPT ( http://catacrypt.org/ ) near London. You're welcome to participate. With a committee where a lot of very important contributors. This talk at Black Hat this summer is thus very interesting. It was anticipated by a talk at CCC in Berlin in December 2011, see 28th Chaos Communication Congress (28C3), Berlin, 29 December 2011: talk by Renaud Devalière and Jean-Jacques Quisquater, in cooperation with David Samyde, The future of cryptology: which 3 letters algorithm(s) could be our Titanic? RMS Olympic, RMS Titanic, HMHS Britannic vs Discrete Logarithm, Integer factorization, Conjectured hard problems: talk is at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t4n7yUBtTt0 There was also a high-level workshop this year in January in Menlo Park about the end of RSA. The slides are here: http://catacrypt.org/rsa-isat-brief%20-%20Public.pdf with permission.

  3. save search on cuil :-) on New Search Engine Cuil Takes Aim At Google · · Score: 1

    Be careful about the preferences. About my name (Quisquater): - Putting safe search ON gives 0 result ... - Putting safe search OFF gives 36394 results. CUIL is not ready to be subtle. For Google: 63100 results .. for the 3 levels of safe search. Hum! Louis Monier (do you have his current email?) don't like my results because I'm working about attacks?

  4. nanowire, nanotube and bacteria: not so new? on Nanotube-Excreting Bacteria Allow Mass Production · · Score: 4, Interesting

    I've a question: it seems that nanowire and nanotube are the same objects. In that case, nothing so new. See http://www.geobacter.org/ and a paper in the June 23, 2005 issue of Nature about the geobacter bacteria. I did a funny use of it during the rump session of CRYPTO 2005 at UCSB, see http://www.iacr.org/conferences/crypto2005/rumpSchedule.html "The geobacter attack: when nanotechnology meets chips" with the slides and the video.

  5. Nothing new on Researchers Create Radio Controlled Humans · · Score: 3, Informative

    See, for instance, http://jp.physoc.org/cgi/content/full/517/3/631 a paper from 1999 with the title "Galvanic vestibular stimulation: new uses for an old tool" Best,

  6. Re:strength of bamboo on Bamboo Bike A Reality · · Score: 1

    I really prefer this one: http://www.orientalglamour.com/chinese%20products% 20wholesale/bamboodecoration9.jpg More bamboo!

  7. a solution for the future on Copyright Battle Over Nothing · · Score: 1

    To be able to trace pirated copies of silence we need a research project for watermarking the silence ...
