You do realize thats not the ONLY damage that radiation does... right? You give iodine does to prevent build up through ingestion/inhalation of particles. Doesn't do shit for direct exposure.
No, because it has nothing to do with actually changing the past.
Its just a modulation technique. Its actually almost identical to the same modulation a cable modem or cell phone uses.
Its not a 'temporal cloak' its just a different form of modulation. The data is detectable by anyone who knows what modulation you're using and the timing for it. It doesn't get 'erased', its just not easily visible unless you happen to know what you're looking for... exactly like hooking a volt meter up to your cable wall jack isn't going to yield any sort of useful result because your meter isn't designed to demodulate the cable signal. Doesn't mean the signals not there, as the instant you hook a cable modem up, it'll go to town and link up with the router on the other end.
Invisibility cloaks exist that do exactly that. Do you live in a box? They aren't even new anymore. They also are currently so narrow band that they are pretty useless practically, but its got to start somewhere.
If something is erased from history, then you can not have knowledge of it. Its a paradox. If you have no knowledge of it, you can't even know its missing, nor could you have sent it in the first place.
Common sense trumps sensationalist articles claiming to have accomplished something that contradicts itself.
Good thing thats all that is needed on slashdot to qualify you as an expert.
I am however not so good with school, so I never did go up to the university level. I just never bothered to do so and I do not expect to do so any time soon.
Right. Thats why your a genius but not in any field like this one.
Instead I just do thought experiments.
Clearly. One of those experiments seems to be thinking you have a clue.
The reality is, you don't know enough to even realize its a scam. You believe in cold fusion and perpetual motion machines as well I'm sure.
So they add a large external battery that completely destroys the advertised weights and sizes... and thats supposed to be impressive?
The 2.33 pound notebook WILL NOT run for 25 hours, since the battery adds weight and volume, doesn't it?
Guess what, my laptop will run for months... because its attached to a UPS... backed by a bank of car batteries, as they power other things in my home during power outages...
You have to be an idiot to believe this sort of marketing BS... guess thats how it made the front page of slashdot.
My Apple macbook pro already beats this Viao... if I attach an external battery, I can get days of uptime... of course, I'm not saying how big the battery is, what it costs or anything else.
So the vaio can run longer if you add a second, external battery... and thats different than what we already have now how? Just because they made a clip on? Knowing Sony it comes with a keyboard sniffer, root kit, and a price tag thats larger than the laptop itself.
You can do the same thing, easier, with an Arduino.
As for the quarters in the arcade experience... you didn't just play the game for the quarters you pumped in, you socialized as well. Which you wont' be doing nearly as much of in your rec room. Not to mention that the quarters add an actual value to a loss. When you play on MAME or whatever, you lose nothing by losing. When you played in an arcade, you had a limited supply of quarters, which made game play more important.
You seem to fail to understand that there is no difference between designing a car and designing a software product.
All the things that go into designing a car should go into designing software. The fact that you don't do it that way shows the failure is you.
Chasing the current fad is for those without the ability to produce something of quality. They don't provide actual benefit, just waste resources.
The reason that software 'developers' get by with it and engineers don't is because most software can't result in someones death, where as an engineering failure on a car can.
You've tried to compare apples to oranges... but only because you don't realize your oranges are really just another apple.
None of these silly little 'styles' are the 'one true way' to do it, if you trap yourself into any one of them, you're doing it wrong.
Agile however is just (as other have pointed out) another way to say 'we just throw any crap code at the wall that anyone wants to make, and see what sticks'
Do you really really think that it costs a million dollars to run a fucking LDAP query?
Right, because thats all it takes. I dont' know about it costing a million dollars, but it does take effort to put forth actual results for this sort of request.
If they just go run an ldap query they are going to get back... NOTHING YOU FUCKING WANT BECAUSE THESE ADDRESSES AREN'T IN THE GOD DAMN DATABASE YOU MORON. Thats the point.
They have to go HUNTING for signs of undisclosed addresses in many cases. That requires the efforts of a lot of different people due to all the existing checks and balances that have to be followed.
You've clearly never worked in a position as an admin where you had to go hunt down things we were never before asked for, years after they happened, when even just finding the backup media can be difficult.
I love when people say this... it makes it clear you've never been a sys admin in your life, and as such, have no reason to be commenting on things you clearly don't understand.
Full disclosure means you are making the world, and all the bad guys know the bug... and in this case, providing them with code to exploit it... without any warning to those people who will be effected by it... and those people can't just jump and make random changes to their servers because some jackass wanted his name in the spotlight.
Its like putting a big sign on the front of someones house that says 'rob me! My owners are away in france for the next month and they left the back door unlocked!!'
Why give an attacker a window of time in which he can use his exploit freely? Inform the public immediately, and they can stop using the software, or decide if it's worth the risk.
Because in the real world, people can't randomly make willy nilly changes to hundreds of thousands of systems in the blink of an eye because some jack ass is too stupid to realize 'full disclosure' is idiotic.
What happens instead is that now all the 'evil' people have a working proof of concept... and STILL NO ONE CAN PATCH THE MACHINES ANYWAY.
Even if there was a patch out already, it would STILL need to be properly tested and vetted by individual organizations.
Anyone who thinks 'Full Disclosure' first is a good idea has no fucking clue what being a system admin is actually like, and reaks of a 15 year old emo living in mommies basement that thinks because he can download a patch and rebuild his Linux kernel that everyone should do the same and ignore the fact that the patch while preventing the exploit... did so because it was broken, and now the machine just won't boot at all.
I really believe you have a wife... and that she knows not only what Ubuntu is... but specifically what Kubuntu is... when she was previously running Windows.
If you're going to make this shit up, it has to be not so wildly unbelievable.
The same thing happened last time if I remember correctly. It's a tricky situation... his employer shouldn't be able to control his hobbies
Correct, the employer can't control his hobbies. However, this sort of irresponsible behavior is akin to a Charlie Sheen going on TV and calling Chuck Lorre some sort of Jew.
What you do publicly reflects on you and those around you. Companies, just like your friends, will distance themselves from you or cut you off when you are clearly being a douche bag.
His actions show everyone that he is irresponsible and selfish. More concerned with getting himself attention than fixing the problem.
Google would be dumb to keep him around, his intelligence and skills are trivial in comparison to his inability to play well with others and be a good citizen in general. His irresponsible actions here are not going to be his only selfish and irresponsible actions. Why would Google want to take the risk that next time he pulls this sort of stunt, that he DOES claim it was with Google's blessing?
Not telling the sysadmins of the world that their systems are potentially at risk is a far worse crime than telling the attackers that they assuredly are.
Let me give you a hint. You are not a sysadmin. Stop acting like you have any idea how sysadmins should behave or be notified.
Why?
Because any actual sysadmin (not someone like you, running linux in mommies basement) knows that... the system is at risk because its turned on.
Its all about risk mitigation, not flawless systems.
You're an idiot if you think your systems are 'safe' just because you're 'all up to date and patched'.
Any real admin will simply mitigate the issue away until a patch can be tested and installed. Real sysadmins don't have retarded knee jerk reactions to exploits.
Microsoft never gets off its ass and fixes stuff before it goes public.
Really? Every bug fix they ever made was from public disclosure? News to me, since I personally have seen them fix things disclosed only to them.
What you actually mean is that you, a home user, with a best a handful of machines, thinks its better to rush a patch out that could break shit, than to do a proper fix and test cycle.
What this lets the rest of us know is that you have no fucking clue what its like to deal with large scale software maintenance. Any admin worth his salt knows that if you can mitigate the problem away and wait for a proper patch that has been thoroughly tested is about 10 billion times better than some random hack made by some guy at 3am this morning.
There are few exploits that can not be mitigated in some way. This particular issue is easy to mitigate at most companies by simply firing any jack ass caught exploiting it. It requires local access (via RDP counts), so its not like we're talking about an internet facing, anyone can take you down, kind of bug.
On top of that, any admin worth his salt his going to do proper testing, which means even if they got a patch 10 seconds after the exploit was found, its STILL GOING TO BE A WHILE BEFORE THE ADMIN DEPLOYS THE PATCH... unless he is some ignorant clueless douche like you who doesn't have any idea what he's doing.
All your post does is shows your complete ignorance of the bigger picture.
A MUSH is entirely different than some online dating site. A MUSH requires actual socialization, not fuck-buddy-dates, which is what dating sites are better suited for.

Lookup QAM ... thats more or less ALL this is.
If I can't see it, neither can the receiver.
Its either detectable or it isn't. If it isn't, no one can see it. If it is, then I can see it too.
Invisibility cloaks exist that do exactly that. Do you live in a box? They aren't even new anymore. They also are currently so narrow band that they are pretty useless practically, but its got to start somewhere.
Look, this isn't hard.

You see
hate for
the raspberry pi
because
we keep seeing articles about
shit that any of us
who have owned one
did last fucking year
or that you can find
on any raspberry pi related
web site.
Do you think
we should have
articles about how someone
put gasoline into their
1970's pickup? That is as
newsworthy as this is.
Do something I didn't do last year
with the raspberry pi or any other
basic linux computer and I'll care,
until then,
I'll just make fun of these retarded posts.
also
do you talk
like this in real life?
You can do the same thing, easier, with an Arduino.

When you played in an arcade, you had a limited supply of quarters, which made game play more important.
I installed MAME and a bunch of other emulators a month ago ... From packages ... With apt-get ...
Why do we have a story on slashdot about something accomplished by running built in tools on the default repositories?
You are a problem.
You seem to fail to understand that there is no difference between designing a car and designing a software product.

Security through obscurity is no security at all.
Spoken like someone who has no fucking clue what they are talking about.
ALL computer/network security is security through obscurity, just like the locks on your house are security through obscurity.
Encryption uses an obscure key.
A password is by definition, security through obscurity.
Stop repeating shit you heard someone else say without any fucking clue what it means.
