We couldn't have a female be the first programmer forever. We've been quietly working on a way to prove someone was before her and now we have. Now I just hope no-one finds out da Vinci stole all his ideas from his wife.
How do we know that Leonardo da Vinci is not a woman? For all we know, "his" name may not be Leonardo after all. Her name was Ednaloro from Vinci!
I would say, try nessus. It is a very good vulnerability mapping tool. I use it to test various *nix/windows boxes. It has a lot of options which sometimes overwhelming at the beginning. But, once you get used to it, you'll never leave without it.
you know, it's not a laughing matter.
some of the ideas on this have been patented. try google with "micropipelines patent". you'll find plenty of them.
To eliminate clocks you would new circuitry such arbitrers and some sort of completion logic which could be used to trigger a flip-flop.... enlighten me on some design issues involving simple tasks such as accessing a register file, or making a memory read.
if you remember your digital design, there's an asynchronous counter. basically, it involves handshaking just like handshaking in a protocol level but at a lower level. yes, there's arbiter, muller c-element (rendezvous), and other nifty components.
the most novel approach, IMHO, would be ivan sutherland's micropipeline which could be extended into Counterflow Pipeline Processor (CfPP). Here is his Turing Award paper on micropipelines. (very good and readable paper!)
Other keywords include "self-timed". I believe there's somebody @ SFU Computer Science who did asynchronous design. I forgot the name. (sigh)
... was to get the latest hacking tools and do runs against the security of his networks. He apparently did this once a week and if anything came up he'd then work on fixing the problem. Is this realistic? Won't the true hackers be using their own special tools or modifications of open source hacking tools to get into systems?
yes, it is common to test the latest hacking tools and run it against own network. there is not that many new ground-breaking tools. nmap, nessus, dsniff, hping,... what else? (the rest are usually assorted tools or [perl] scripts for specific situation.) newer programs we tested tend to be exploits, specific for certain devices / systems.
is it realistic? yes/no. we have limitted hardware and software (os, the exact version, config) to test the tools / exploits on. we tend to test with environment we are dealing with (what we have). in this limited environment, yes, perhaps it is realistic. but, in the broader sense, i'd say: no.
do crackers use his own crafted tools? mostly, no! usually, they use canned-rootkit, or ready to use scripts. from the log / trail, you can see that they are usually couldnot even fix a simple mistake in the script. gave up, downloaded another script, ran it.
true hackers? well, you can't catch 'em anyway!:) so leave 'em alone...
Do they really use the machine for real world application(s)?
or can I borrow it to crack password (or even run distributed.net client, hmm...).
Better yet, let's try Doom on it.
Well, it's UNIX not UNIX-like. It's also a pretty damn stable operating system, and has been around much longer than Linux.
Well, so does AIX, Solaris, etc. What's so good about being older than Linux?
(GNU/Hurd is perhaps older than Linux, but look at its progress. Rather slow, isn't it?)
Hmm... What's this all about upgrade? My hotmail account is still a measly 2 MB. It's a very very old account (before it was bought by Microsoft) that I rarely used.
Is there a difference between older and newer accounts?
I guess, I don't think mine is going to be upgraded.
Oh well. I'll stick with Yahoo and Gmail.
FreeBSD = All core parts developed together.
Linux = Assembling a collection of core parts from different sources.
Does it really mater? I thought that having a large community to contribute - hence collection of different sources - is a strength if the developers have the same quality. No?
I'd stay stay in school, and continue until you get your PhD, then enjoy life;-). That's what I did.
Nobody likes school, but that's besides the point. I stayed in school and just layed low. I could enjoy my youth, played with friends (bands, motorcycle, etc.), made a lot of (interesting) friends, (sometimes skip classes, but the teachers couldn't complain since I passed whatever tests they gave, ha ha ha). At one point one teacher noticed me, gave me an A without a test, and occasionally he asked me to teach my classmates. I guess he knew that I got bored just listening to him.
Using this strategy I could do various interesting things when I am still young. Good thing I did those things. Now, I am older (hopefully wiser) and enjoying life.
I know a group of people here (in Indonesia) who got a job of scanning various things (images, documents, etc.). Their office opens 24 hours/day, (3 or 4 shifts?), scanning, scanning,... and scanning. The output is the written to CD(s) and sent back.
I don't know if they're still doing it though.
But, for labor intensive tasks, just outsource it.
It's not a classified / top secret document anyway, right?
You can work on more productive things.
: If they can catch child pr0n people with this stuff I'm all for it.
I am all for it too. but...
what if the application is for something else, like to fight terorism, drugs,... etc.
would you do it?
(I am just curious what techies think?)
Does anybody still have archive of email exchange(s) between Tanembaun dan Linus in the early development of Linus. I read it long-long time ago (reminds me of kernel 0.12. anybody?), but didn't keep it. It would be interesting to re-read it again.
A man goes to a pet store and found an expensive monkey. He asks the store owner, "how come that monkey is so expensive?".
Store owner: "He can program in Basic!"
The man goes to another cage. The monkey is more expensive. He asks the same question.
Store owner: "He can program in C!"
Then they go to the last cage. The monkey is outrageously expensive. The man asks again.
Store owner: "Well, he does consulting!"
My guess, "real" programmers still use print statements.
... now, i'm trying to printf my Gmail account with mails!...

the story is the same. during the 70s here in asia we didn't have that much american influence. our tv shows were mostly japanese fake robots and cartoons. come to think of it, we did have "lost in space".
during the 80s we started geting those (disco) music videos from us and europe.
and the A team, of course [sic].
when i talked to people at the same age, i was shocked that they watched the same tv shows.
we laughed at the things that were said and done on those silly shows.
how on earth did we watch them and thought they were cool?
so... this is happening in all parts of the world. except that we didn't have your shows! that's why having an internet site (or P2P network) with those shows is important so that i can understand what you folks are talking about.
i had to watch reruns of "family ties", "cheers", and the like (the list is long) to understand certain "cultural things".
now, is there an archive of david letterman?

Retina is another excellent tool, but pricey.
