I appreciate the time spent by xiph.org to think about and put together the information. Unfortunately I know little about patent processes, but I know that patents have been a major concern and pain, because one can, through no fault of their own, create a "method" like something that had been patented.
I also know that there are many patent troll companies out there and they need to be taken care of, regardless of how much the government thinks it brings in on fees during these processes.
I understand parts of what was said, and found nothing that I can disagree with. Although I would rather they do away with software patents completely, in our reality that will not be the likely case.
Thanks xiph.org.
Oddly enough, lower income people are also very religious, which tends to tell people to "keep the baby" and use "natural berth control" methods. They also advocate for large families
They are also generally republican and tend to believe in the American dream.
So see... it is our culture not the individuals state of well being that causes people to gamble.
Wasnt there also proof that ethanol also harms the engine?
It had a good run, but it needs to stop. Question is, if they stop this, does that also remove the % requirement as well?
Otherwise, gas prices will rise again.
Really? Large organizations should be going this route?
Explain the advantages then, because all I see are disadvantages.
Sure there are some good points to be made about testing, but anything beyond that is a very big question
Do I think hosted email is a good thing? Googles offerings are killing it out there, so yes. And the security is close to what hosting email offers. Except for the fact that you have some super admins in the datacenters that have access, not because they want to, but because they have to based on job function.
But back end security is so lax that you would be a "twit" to put your data in "the cloud" with other companies.
So please, tell me your side of the story.
Because I talk about Palin you think I automatically like all Democrats or Nancy Pelosi?
Sorry, Im not closed minded like a lot of partisan politics usually is. I dont like Pelosi either.
and comparing the two and saying "meh... all politicians blah blah..." is a cop out.
Fight for the better politician and throw out the bad ones, do no make excuses for them. Set an example.. and this goes for all politicians.
If he thinks the "cloud" is where the government should be going, he is a moron.
Likely people started realizing they already had a cloud, like the British Government, and then realized he was talking out of his ass.
Not to mention the security risks in a distributed, shared resource infrastructure.
GG dumbass, you lasted 2 and a half years.
It isnt because of her ignorant statements about the "lame stream media", blaming them for all of HER mistakes.
It isnt because she knows less about USA than an immigrant 5th grader than came into the USA in the middle of 4th grade
It isnt because she is a hypocrite that advocates good parenting, yet her own daughter had a kid under 18 (societies social norm)
It isnt that she had her own "reality show" that was just as fake as she is
It isnt that she climbed to fame because Republicans were looking for the "counter" to Obama and no other reason
It isnt that she used that fame to spread her ignorance throughout the world.
It isnt that she couldnt even finish half a term as an elected representative.
Its that she blatantly lies about things and then backs it up with ignorant statements.
Meh, in a world of IT where cost of servers in a small/med business is a very large concern, I think Ill go with the more efficient code.
Disclaimer: I never liked the concept of Java and its oddly insane ability to have multiple security bugs at any given time.
Good job Java, you slow down our systems and let hackers gain access. Way to keep small businesses down! (Sorry, I'm feeling very sardonic right now.)
You are talking about man in the middle attacks (looking at the data before it is sent off. Popular method is key logging) or spoofing.
Thus my quoted statement is still true.
Just so you understand, I know what you are saying, but it is not what we are talking about.
Agreed,
If they wanted to focus on programming, there are two "basic" options... HTML with JavaScript and/or Visual Basic (HA, just kidding). I mean Access type databases (AP course for sure, not because of the easy programming and scripting, but because of the database concept).
SSL adds a layer of encryption that can only be transmitted by sender and received by intended receiver.
It does this by encrypting all data between the two points. Which is, if you have ever bothered to perform a packet capture, all in plain text unless encrypted.
Since I believe you do not know what you are talking about since you didnt explain it, or have the balls to because you werent sure about it, I suggest you learn about SSL.
Basic question for yah... go ahead, google it.. Ill wait
SSL stands for Secure Socket Layer, and is transmitted on what layer of the OSI model?
I believe my point was, and if you took a second to reflect on it, that you should treat everything as public because it CAN be, very easily. Much easier than keeping that picture you had taken back in the 80s of that hottie you doinked.
interesting, because where I worked, we just billed them. They never got the EMR document unless requested.
But yes, there were changes every year. I remember seeing very large reference books being purchased on a yearly basis for the coders.
Oh and I love how government systems are still on dial up for submitting claims. True, it is pretty secure in the sense that it is a point to point connection into a terminal based system, but come on....
We handled this by implementing PGP encryption and SFTP and/or VPN Tunnels with hospitals.
True.
As an IT guy who worked for a medical billing company I got to see the inner workings of the coding world.
It is interesting to see that it requires another human being to code from a doctors notes. And then many things came into play, such as alife medical, a EMR system that codes based off of what it reads. They even converted TIFFs with OCR so they could read it. Now with things like NextGen you can put it all into the system and let the system do it for you. No more "interpreting" what the doctor wanted to say. However, with this system it will be tough to find doctors who overbill or put in information that is untrue.
I would watch coders detect these things by finding a doctor attempting to charge for a procedure that did not even involve the issue. Can an EMR system do that? Hopefully, but it will probably be an after thought to the new coding.
And what about these certified coders? Do they have to retrain and re-certify? Probably.
That job was an eye opening experience into the Medical billing world. It was very interesting and I helped develop some of the very first medical billing methods.

curse you typos!
Yeah, doesnt that basically give an open window to terrorists and Iran?
WTF!

I think its the fact that there are still "web rings"... WTF?!?!?

No no... they can cut pensions if they wanted.
They do it to teachers, police, and fire all the time.

I am responding to someone who claims irrational dislike against Palin when the evidence is to the contrary.

no...no it is pretty rational.

See she represents all that is BAD in the USA.
I feel like pulling a "Good Will Hunting" moment on you...
but I wont.... I wont.

Wow, if I hadnt played a steam game or looked at their main store page I wouldnt have known!
Thanks for the scoop Slashdot.

Just so you understand, I know what you are saying, but it is not what we are talking about.
Yes it does... what is your point?
I was talking about what SSL does, not its probability of redirection hacks and certificate corruptions.
Agreed,

Actually Insurance companies wont be involved in re-engineering the medical coding.
They just get the bill.
True.
