These are not consumer items. Industrial systems seldom live just one life, and after being decommissioned they usually go up for action to be recommissioned somewhere else. If you artificially disrupt this dynamic you cause enormous economic loss, and for what? To perpetuate a buzzword?
The entire proposal is barking up the wrong tree.
It is however a moderately interesting insight into the echo-chamber of national intelligence. Rather funny to see how Mr. Geer talks about monocultures while laying on their own lore _thick_.
There is no confusion about the universe of discourse that this move is relevant in. The debate further carries a simple, concrete example of what went wrong and why.
I really think this is the real deal: the unicorn.
That may not be truthful. There's a consensus building that she and her allies genuinely believed in their policy. That doesn't speak well for her competence but at least her integrity isn't under as great a scrutiny.
So, it's an old familiar foe called Ignorance that we keep on fighting, instead of some malevolent conspiracy.
Not between everybody's ears... Polymorphic shell code was spreading in the 90s and since then the researcher has moved far beyond. Most recently a single binary blob which hooks into wildly different embedded operating systems and even architectures was presented openly to the public. The most frightening thing about this current situation is that the NSA turned out to be an industrial-scale bottom-feeder instead of at the forefront in the field. Their lack of sophistication must be why they have resorted to attacking instead of defending.
Attack is much easier than defence. The industry though the NSA was engaged in defence as per their charter as written in US law. There is a huge deficit of security compared to traditional business estimates, as is evident by the norm of routine dismissal of alarming information as the delusions of paranoid conspiracy theorists, who have since been vindicated by Mr. Snowden.
Security has palpable economic value. Deficit in security is a deficit in economic potential. Because of this it appears as if the NSA has been engaged in economic warfare against the entire global economy. Huge engineering projects should be put on hold while the SCADA industry rectifies a culture of negligence, but they are forced to endanger eg. people living near hydroelectric dams since they are unable to suddenly provision the budget needed for security. - The NSA and its ilk took this, the tax-payers' money earmarked for defence, and used it for their... what should one call it, evil?
All because they failed to recognize and recruit talent, idiotically opting for buzz-cuts over sandals. - They persist at trying to use primate social instincts to validate fields of expertise far outside their own. We are fortunate that Stuxnet and its predecessor were the best this culture could achieve.
The keyboard is a tool for the job... You seem to indicate that you know that by identifying as a touch-typist, but you also seem to be giving general advice as if this was a board for typists.
Slashdot is frequented by programmers, researchers, analysts, hardware hackers, web designers, students, PC gamers, and and all manner of geeks. Personally I have 4 different keyboards and I'm looking for more.
How so? Are you familiar with the language at all?
Can't speak for him, but I do. Dart has for example a Future class which actually immediately tells you what is going on even when you have derived your own version of it, when Javascript has as many solutions to the concurrency problem as there are programmers. I often think of Javascript as a write-only language, while Dart code actually opens itself up rather well to studying.
I think that most importantly Dart seems to know what it is and what its purpose is. Javascript was excellent when the web was new since no one knew how to solve the repeating engineering problems, but since jQuery came around it appears more like a tool for inventing infinite ways to shoot yourself in the foot. Dart knows you'll probably want to do something MVC-like and eventually shoe-horn it into the dreaded DOM. They are paying lots of attention to the Canvas element though, and know that Pointer Events is the Way.
Juxtapose, the C/C++ I learned back in the day looks completely different from what it looks like now. I hardly knew what was going on when I did some network / sensor work with Nokia's Qt SDK, but cargo-culting saw me through. You could see the language's age, while Dart doesn't have that legacy cruft.

Yes you can, you spineless, greedy sons of bitches.
According to the Australians I talk to, all of Australian politics is a bad joke right now.
What the hell is Multi-Level Secure?
Yes, I can.
The smartphone has post-processing artifacts, blown out contrast and no depth of field.
Lets call him Bob Bigballs instead. Much more reverent.
No, look at the top comments here on /.

An alternative is to make CCTV into a public utility.
Your former allies question your sanity.
Not TEDx. Nice.
A few ideas which might synch well with these mist screens:

Your mind can be shredded in a day. It wouldn't even be 'you' walking away.
What a foolish comment you've made.
She's a horrible cunt who lied...

I was about to say "Use the Force Luke," and hope GP remembered the blast visor.
Sure he can. Lock him up before he hacks the planet!
It's parking right next to com sats (It loves those Middle-Eastern ones.) and listens in on leaking RF.
Gallium nitride is a beautiful thing! =)
It does look cool, though.
Really? At a glance I thought it looked simplistic and trite.
I hope the Judge orders and investigation.
Besides, I'm sure there's someone else we could sue out there.

No orchestra would ever play this.
When I close my eyes while listening to classical music, I see the story that the music tells. This tells me nothing.
All the notes are the same length.
I want my 4 minutes and 55 seconds back.
For the love of... /. it's 2014!

We have  where ~ should be. That's a big clue right there who's responsible for this shit.

Most autists do admit to being emotionally insensitive. It seems to be all talk though.
