If this were a fantastically gifted campaign manager we were talking about, like Carville or Rove, nobody would blink at the idea "we must prevent the other side from using his talent."
This is software used to manage talent. It is politics as usual to prevent your opponents from matching your advantages. It is not illegal or even immoral to try to win by being better than your opponent.
TDon't vote... please. If only the people that actually cared about this country, and the people having hellfire missles landing in their livingrooms got to vote, then maybe we'd get somewhere.
You have just called for VOTER SUPPRESSION in so many words. Will you now backpedal, saying that's not what you meant, or stand by your words, proving yourself a dangerous idiot?
In other words: Good luck getting only the people who agree with you to vote.
There is enough smoke here that I, who am neither a fireman nor an owner of flammable property, feel safe guessing there's probably a fire. I'll leave the law and order to those paid for it.
Anonymous broke into a coach's email account and downloaded his email. While it doesn't contain direct connection to this rape, there are photos of nude teenagers and, to correlate, a non-nude photo of a different teenager who was raped in a different town under similar circumstances.
Can you not conceive of a roaming consultant who does not wish to install his whole toolset on his client's machine? Also, browser -> remote ssh server -> remote network is still more secure than local ssh -> remote network.
The story is really about a firm collecting information about the teenagers belonging to a "Skype Hand" -- a member of the secret society running a phone sex operation, with all participants being teenagers and all conversations happening over Skype. Once the firm finishes collecting information, it will distribute it to GOP congressmen.
I'm not looking for any such thing, because I know it can't exist. I'm pointing out the sloppy language of the report when it claims over unity return on energy invested. This language is every similar to the free energy nuts who would be looking for such a thing which cannot exist.
From the PDF you yourself linked: "Of course, no algorithm using a bounded amount of memory can generate a nonrepeating sequence such as the digits of p indefinitely, so we have to allow arbitrary-precision arithmetic, or some other manifestation of dynamic memory allocation."
Slashdot Mirror
And guess what: the prime tool for peaceably resolving disagreement among camps of people is called politics.
Morals: A person's standards of behavior or beliefs concerning what is and is not acceptable for them to do.
So you're saying that the freedom of code is a higher moral goal for you than any mere human goals?
Your interpretation is too narrow.

I'm no expert on what linguistic parse trees should look like. But hopefully this will help your parser somewhat:
{The {political {folks}}
want
{to keep
{the {{get out the vote} code}}
{closed source}
}
Or, rewriting the original:
The political folks want to prevent the voter turnout enhancement code from becoming open source.
Want to know what kind of movies your friends like? ASK THEM.
Want to get set up with a single friend of a friend? ASK YOUR FRIEND.
Want to make Zuckerburg disgustingly rich? USE FACEBOOK.

It's more invasive, more expensive, and requires general anesthetic.
No. It can and usually is done under twilight sedation.

OK, maybe he's a security guard and not a cop. But he's wearing a uniform and it's never explicitly said what his job is.
Watch it again yourself. One of the rapists was the shop owner (Maynard); the other was a cop (Zed).
I'm going to open up an aluminum foil stand just inside the park entrance.

The "confession" video has a boy saying "They raped her harder than that cop raped Marcellus Wallace in Pulp Fiction."

I think Paglia may be an actual troll. Perhaps a troll doll in human's clothing.

The report ignores the energy input of the sunlight. It may be economically sensible to ignore that, but on a thermodynamic level it's stupid.

MIT, Caltech, Harvard, and other universities in Europe
I understand what they mean, but it's a silly way to write it. Maybe Slashdot should have someone who edits submissions.
How would you revise it without adding anything?
Best I can come up with is
MIT, Caltech, and Harvard, as well as some European universities
As well as the resources it takes, in both CPU and storage, to compute pi out that far.
[If] you run Windows or OSX [at all], you're pretty much fucked.
FTFY.
