Is that true? Not how I recall it. Classic ASP was/is an application container exposing various web-type things like request objects and the like. Generally, the language was VBScript but it didn't have to be: ECMAscript was an option too.
When a human driver kills another human being, the courts can punish that person and allow for the victim's family to claim compensation. When a driverless car kills a human being... ?
How about insurance companies? Maybe the manufacturer demonstrates their system to the insurance company. They acknowlege there is a risk that there may be faults with the car but they demonstrate due dilligence that these have been minimised by thorough testing and development. Then the insurance company takes on this risk, structures their premium accordingly and works with the manufacturer to reduce risk further as on ongoing process.
If the car goes beserk, you sue the insurance company.
It's always comforting finding some irony in the nature of a tragic death. Thanks be owing for your words.

Good post, thanks...I think you have nailed it. Most of these comments and TFA seem to be misleading or deluded.
Summary: 1 - domain names don't exist with soft hyphens in them. So you can't fake a link with hidden characters in it. 2 - the character simply doesn't render (in a browser FF/Chrome/IE8) unless needed... a link with a ­ in it is the same as a link without the ­ in it, as the link (href) part of the tag is never going to be displayed in text flow. 3 - the malicious use is to evade filtering. That's all!! 4 - also, in my testing on thunderbird only, isn't even interpreted.
A better solution is to have a self-destructing system that eats itself when you enter in the wrong password x number of times. Give the investigators a bad password and let the data eat itself. With the data gone, rubber hose decryption is defeated.
I was thinking about this - I don't think it's possible, as the first thing the investigators do is remove the hard drive(s), flip the read-only switch on the drive and take a full bit-level copy. So they can always come back to a fresh copy of the crypt to try something new. Maybe a way round (just speculating, I aint hidin nuttin!) is to have a modified hard drive that self-wipes on power-up outside the box. That would be quite the hacker project.
That is my understanding too, I can't pull a reference right now but I was reading in a science mag about the impact that the time-of-day of exercising affects overall metabolism / weight loss etc. Morning exercise raises the overall metabolic activity for many hours afterwards.
But I digress: what I meant to say was that the readily-downloaded media are something of a trap. I think we are going to be left with a whole generation that has no idea what their music is actually supposed to sound like.
this.
in the whole process, the quality of reproduced music generally available to the public is falling fast. compressed tinny sounds produced by inadequate headphones and speakers. I think the quality peaked in the early 90's with widespread CDs and solid speakers. Since then all around me people just seem to accept having crap sound around them, almost like a security blanket they need sound, any sound. Audiophilia and general hi-fi appreciation is lost these days. It's the same with video on the web, yeah sure i can watch anything but it's crap - a compressed, jerky, artifact-ridden little box on my laptop screen. That's not TV. Or cinema.

Any newspaper reporter, editor, publisher, or owner who wants to "stick their money where their mouth is", ought to NOT vaccinate their own kids for any of these diseases, then see what happens.
Fair enough, however it's not just that by not vaccinating your child they are vulnerable to these diseases. "Herd immunity" means that they will be unlikely to encounter the disease anyway. As vaccination levels drop below the proportion required for herd immunity outbreaks of the disease will become more prolonged and harder to control. So our willful editors who leave their kids unprotected are making a decision that contributes to a weakening in the herd thus also exposing others to greater risk. That's pretty anti-social.
It's also interesting that the MMR vaccine is of course a multiple vaccination. By administering all 3 vaccines in one injection, the child is not vulnerable to diseases #2 and #3 whilst waiting to recover from vaccine #1, as they would be if receiving a series of single vaccinations. Statistically, this difference saves lives.
Yup. I totally agree with you. The possibility of a similar attack occuring again diminished to zero before most of us even knew what had happened. It's no longer possible to hijack a plane. Blow it up, yes, but hijack control - no.
They pull a knife, you pull a gun. He sends one of yours to the hospital, you send one of his to the morgue. That's the Chicago way... Now do you want to do that? Are you ready to do that? I'm offering you a deal. Do you want this deal?
I *am* surprised, however, to see that these rogue waves are observed as frequently as they are
How frequently observed is it? A wave must pass by a boat at sea every 10 or 15 seconds, depending on speed and direction of travel. Waves are observed literally thousands of times a day by people at sea in boats...that's a pretty big sample space. From my experience: let's say a million waves : no rogues yet.
But the crew should have seen that coming. You can see the wave breaking in the distance.
That's not also a particularly large vessel : I'd say it's around 30m. And it looks like a gin palace cruiser. Probably not designed to ride a big sea, primarily.
You've had a lot of replies pointing out that binoculars are the way to start. Good advice, of course.
Well, if you had no budget at all, you could still get in to the skies. All you need is your eyes. Whilst bins and scopes massively open up what is visible to you, your eyes still do the seeing and they can see a lot more than you may realise at first:
- You need to adapt to night vision - takes up to 30 minutes - You need to be able to use your peripheral vision (rods) to see more at night - You need to bring your muscles and mind under control to gain a stable view - These apply just as much with scopes as with naked eye, so this is valuable training wherever the hobby takes you
All the constellations and 5 planets are viewable with the naked eye. Andromeda, M44 etc are also spottable. The major moons of Jupiter and Saturn. Training your eyes to see at night and training your mind to know what you are seeing is great physical and mental exercise and requires no equipment whatsoever, just access to star charts and ephemeral information.
