Yeah, pretty much. The case covered just refusing to tell a cop who you were for no real reason on either side. Now, my question is... Doesn't it seem logical that this would also affect the Internet too. What if a police officer asks you who you are online?
I am hereby claiming to be a police officer. I demand to know who you are. Please post your name and home address as a reply. Failing to do so will make you subject to arrest.
This is the internet, most native speakers are so bad that there is a rather large grey area. You're English is perfect. Although, I can tell you nativly speak Spanish. The reason... You said "Colon" and not "Columbus".
OT: Einstein had great grades, he did manage to fail a French class once. The bad grade rumor was started by the fact that he was getting 6s and suddenly started getting 1s (might have been 6s to 1s I forget). The school system part way through Einstein's education flipped it. This is what lead to the confusion, looking at his early grades is misleading.
It's not like we don't see Microsoft's point. They have 8 zillion flaws and people seemingly can reverse their patches and find the flaws. Though, it's really an architectual problem. If you don't think security when you code a product, you don't get security when its done. Hack and patching the security in later is like announcing each and every flaw. Windows needs to be rewritten, have the services nobody uses turn off by default, or die out in favor of a safer operating system.
Finding flaws, seems to not negate the fact there there are flaws. Because you only find flaws in flawed products. Take OS X, what are they at 3? 4? Something like that of critical patches, in the same time Microsoft has churned out hundreds of flaws. Microsoft's claims that faster patching will make people safer goes as far as a boat with holes in it, who's captain insists that for safty people need to bale faster. Don't build boats with holes. The report is correct, patches are more like baling out the rising water than fixing the design of the boat.
Yeah, I think they should also make the course harder. Let me hunt their robots; sniper rifle on a ridge... Fun for everybody. Also, add a battle bot aspect. If you can kill the other competors that totally shouldn't be forbidden.
Booble got sued for trademark infringement by google. And besides GIS is better anyhow. Search for boobies you can find them both in the red and blue footed varieties.
Nobody said replace all the wires. All the problems with internet distribution at least in the states is what the call the last mile. Getting it from where you ran the fiber to the house is a pain. Cable, Dialup, DSL, ISDN, T1 ect, these all go to a place with fiber that goes out to the rest of the net. If you could replace this last mile with a good wireless connection the prices would drop dramaticly.
It serves some uses with encryption ect...
It disproves nothing, there are proofs for the infinate number of primes, so there's always another other prime out there...

Well, really gobs of stuff, but you hardly can have credit for any of the stuff you mentioned.
Review data? We are computer scientists, anybody says anything it's automaticly true, and if it isn't it will be, or well be so old nobody cares anymore. That's the kind of logic that would say you should diagram out a program before starting to code.
Also, why is it that a proof isn't a proof unless it's been reviewed a few times. That distiction has always puzzled me. There's no defined logic that could just be checked out to certify a proof as valid. It has to be checked a few times by a few folks who go, wow nifty.
You don't get it. Poker in a nutshell.

Geeks and Poker?

I think most of you are missing the vast distinction between poker and blackjack/craps/slots ect. The primary difference is where your winnings come from. In the majority of gambling games if you hit it big the casino pays. In Poker all your winnings come from other players. You sit at a table and take their money.
Poker has nothing to do with beating the house. The house takes the rake regardless what you do. Poker has to doing better than the other players. This can be done, and be done consistently.
For example I play poker online all the time. In fact for a while now, my poker winnings have been my primary source of income. Although, after getting my B.S. in C.S. I should probally at least look for a job.
I usually play partypoker.com (signup/bonus code "join25"). To be fair I have played since I was like 17, and I am 22 now. But, as long as I've played I've cracked a profit. In fact my poker skill has bought me a few computers, paid my rent the past few months, paid for a few quarters of college, fixed my car, and bought me a burrito I ate this morning.
The house gets paid regardless, so you actually can win at the game. For example it would be like paying 10 dollars to play somebody chess and if you win you get 19 bucks (the person who owns the chess set rakes a dollar). Now if you were a chess grand master this situation would be great for you, and the chess set owner.
This is poker. All though chess is much more descrete, the better player almost always trounces the worse player. Poker is has a bit more luck involved (not nearly as much as you would think). But, this gives losing players the impression that they can win, and winning players something to chat about how bad they were 'bad beat' by some 'moron'.
The crux of it is. Poker is a game of skill. You pay the casino/online-site/back-room-operator for the honor of sitting at the table and being permitted to seperate suckers from their money.
Here here! We aren't laughing because people are handicapped, we are laughing because the idea is funny, smart, and surely implementable.

One of two things will happen. 1) You will find its pretty hard to do, so long as you give it minimum effort. 2) You will get fired, and then know what real stress is.
"However, EFF's Jason Schultz points out a very real and very scary scenario in which trusted computing combined with the DMCA makes such leaks illegal, regardless of the First Amendment." == "There exists a scenario such that the DMCA and trusted computing combined are unconstitutional."
To be fair most of those things really shouldn't be patented on the obvious claim for patents. I was working on a shopping system for a php script I was writing. I didn't really think about it until it was about finished but the final code was pretty much a cart.
Problem: 1) People need to buy things. 2) Buying one thing at a time is slow/silly.
Solution.
Allow people to make a list of things to buy and buy them.
I can't think of another solution to that. And that solution is pretty much a shopping cart. If somebody was giving a question and came up with a truely original idea that no one else had thought of having had the same question given to them. That idea should be patentable. But, if there's only about one solution which isn't hard to find. The idea of even spending any time thinking about issuing a patent is a waste.

Why did the bill of rights have to stop at 10?
Groklaw finding out about and debunking SCO's bogus worthless claim before they even finished laying down the groundwork to make it.
It starts to make me wonder, even if SCO had a case wouldn't they just get stomped into the ground by Groklaw's army of F/OSS paralegal type folks.
"You're" ... FRICK! I was trying to not mess up there. But, it reinforces my point.

Do I at least get wannabe credit for having 2^P - 1 where P is a prime number. Guess not.
God told me 2^19232891231089 - 1 is prime. Now where were those women for the worlds highest prime? Try to prove me wrong... see, you can't. Prime.
