What's worse: Not being able to keep your network running when someone actively tries to disrupt it, or not being able to keep your network running under otherwise perfectly normal conditions?
Because you only get the option to moderate if you (a) are logged in (you cannot moderate as Anonymous Coward), (b) have enough Karma (which basically means your posts have been moderated up often enough, and certainly more often than down), and (c) happen to have some mod points (even if your Karma is high enough, you'll only get mod points every now and then, and if you don't use them, they'll expire in a few days).
And if they use printers to print out the paper documentation from their computers, the hackers might get in there, too. Unless, of course, they properly protect their network, in which case neither the printed documents nor those on iPads will be in particular danger of being hacked.
And unlike paper documents, the electronic ones might by cryptographically signed so that a manipulation can be easily detected.
They want to build an artificial intelligence robot. Of course it won't care about first posts. However they have to be careful: If they make it too intelligent, it will recognize solving the exam as an useless task and refuse to do it.
Of course the true power is coming from aliens who live in Roswell and control the conspiracy. They also forced NASA to fake the moon landing. The moon landing had to be faked because otherwise the NASA would have found the Nazis sitting on the moon and preparing for their return. OK, some conspiracy still missing?:-)
If so, she did a very bad promotion job. I've heard and read a lot about this "red light" issue, but your post is the first time I hear that she wrote a book.
I didn't suggest that astronauts don't watch space documentaries. I suggested that watching space documentaries doesn't get you even close to being an astronaut.
Actually the mind has a very effective firewall, as everyone has experienced who tried to convince someone else that his believe system is wrong. However, like any firewall, it can only keep off threats if configured properly.
If you read the article, you'll find out that the company was stopped for political reasons. On one hand, the fear that knowledge about building missiles could get into some African countries where the company had testing facilities, and on the other hand political pressure from some powers that didn't want Germany to have their own long range rocket technology.
The best thing: They'll learn how to write programs which don't needlessly eat megabytes of memory. For the simple reason that there are no megabytes of memory available. It's a skill which is very much lacking in today's programmers (and yes, if there are literally hundreds of background processes running on the computer, those megabytes per process do matter even today).
Why? I'd really like to learn how to create young earths. If humans continue to ruin the Old Earth we are living on, it might be a useful skill to have.
You don't have RequestPolicy? Because I'd say the best protection for your privacy is if the corresponding server is not even contacted. All other measures are only bandaids for the case where you cannot avoid contacting the server.

Someone with mod points.

Unfortunately that would mean having no internet access (good luck finding an internet provider without a big list of terms and requirements).

Yeah, because the documentation on paper can never be corrupt, and no page has ever been missing from a printed document.
And of course, just because there's an iPad for documentation, no documentation at all can be provided in paper form ...
And BTW, I hope that any pilot allowed into the cockpit of a passenger plane is able to do an emergency landing even if no checklist is available.

Will it be able to cheat? :-)

Yeah, that never could happen with me, because I

He probably chose to not be reminded of the real world.
Or a hacker puts a QR code for some exploit on his tombstone ... afterlife hacking!
And yes, we regularly complained to the mathematics office - as a group. Nothing changed. I bet that to this day nothing has changed.
Well, maybe if you had complained as an algebra instead, you'd have had more success. Did you at least complain as a Lie group? :-)

So you have to reinstall Windows because your child has Asperger's syndrome?
Ah, I understand: The kid uses every opportunity to wipe Windows from the hard drive and replace it with Linux! :-)

I prefer to put my books on wooden shelves.
Well, there hasn't been a vi/emacs war for quite some time.
I even suspect quite a few of the readers have experienced neither.

Of course. Every child is a genius. Just ask the parents.
The question is on which end the communication failed. I'd say the "Hmmm" at the end was quite obvious.

You're right. In the end, it's still the people who vote. It's time to change that. ;-)
