You're describing wholesale changes to the way DNS works, and then illustrating how that can be worked around by browsers. There's more than just browsers on the Internet!
Yes it can. Firefox (at least) does so. If it gets to the end of the page and find it's invalid, THEN it throws up the error, even if it's already rendered part of it.
So if I'm in my house, and I start signaling with the blinds in Morse code, something like "Hey look at me!" or even "SOS", then anybody who interprets those signals is a felon?
Mercy. That's really dumb. MyISAM tables store the auto increment value on the disk, so you have to go way out of your way to reset it. Otherwise it won't ever repeat.
Thanks for pointing this out. I've been looking at switching to InnoDB, there's one more reason not to...
Four fields of bee hives, one with Faraday cages installed on each hive, one with nothing (control), one with cell phones on/in the box, and another with the phone 2m away. That'd generate the kind of data we're actually looking for wouldn't it?
If you set that up a hundred times, yes.
Individual hives can fail for any number of basically unpredictable reasons.
Most likely there isn't time for a reaction to be in proportion.
If an intruder is in my home, my life is in jeopardy. The opportunity to ask the intruder whether or not he's armed, and then frisk him, just may not present itself.
I suppose if you could somehow guarantee (which you can't) that all home invaders are unarmed, then you could get away with playing your game of tag with them.
I'll guarantee that with my method, you'll have a lot fewer home invaders in the first place. And that's better for everyone.
Let's consider this scenario: I'm diagnosing some problem with my wireless network, setting my radio to promiscuous mode and recording the results. I happen to record a few minutes' worth of traffic from the access point of you, my next door neighbor. Which of the following would you prefer:
a) To protect your privacy, I immediately delete the data.
b) To protect your privacy, I "turn myself in", sending a copy of what I recorded to the FBI, CIA, John Conyers, and anybody else who feels it's his job to "safeguard privacy".
In your corporate espionage scenario, that's my own data the spy has got. If I'm looking at my own data, no foul.
This is random Web access data from the general public. The result of government obtaining it is that the government will paw through it. This is a whole new level of scary from a privacy perspective.
If the goal is to preserve the privacy of the people whose data this is, then this makes no sense.

I'd like to complain about my money being wasted.

PROTIP: There's more to the Internet than the Web.

#1 USAA is out of San Antonio.

What a stupid idea. Do you live in a police state?
It wasn't intercepted between the sender and recipient.
The sender sent it to the recipient, AND ALSO broadcast it, over the air, in the clear, to anybody who cared to listen.
Isn't it more like $10/GB?

Actually, if 1% at random check, then after 100 downloads, you've still got a 37% chance that nobody has checked. .99^100 = .36603
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/information-functions.html contains some instructions for "simulating sequences". So I guess that's a no.

I've never heard of one that doesn't make that guarantee. MySQL's certainly does.
Cowboys Stadium is in Arlington, in Tarrant County (along with Fort Worth).

It's a good thing you cry at the news, or else you'd *gasp* draw Mohammad!
Do you satisfy all the conflicting requirements of every one of the world's religions?
So what's the point of the order to keep it, then? If this data is so unimportant and un-sensitive, then who cares anyway?
(apologies for the double reply)

You're arguing for b), which is the wrong answer.

I wish they had spent more time on the steroid issue. It's a far less damaging way for them to spend their time than normal.
So in government-land, the way to fix the problem of data accidentally collected is to order that said data be KEPT, instead of immediately deleted??
Yeah, I think you're probably right. Well played, elrous0!
