  1. "The flaw is triggered when the getaddrinfo() library function is used"

    That function is used a lot.

    What about the linux based pacemaker that controls my heart? I'm sure it is saaaeffeeaeafeitgaPOl

  3. Maybe a solution on Red Hat, Google Disclose Severe Glibc DNS Vulnerability; Patched But Widespread · · Score: -1, Troll

    Maybe Google and Redhat should stop just leeching of off Open Source and actually fund it all. They are literally making billions in cash off of Open Source infrastructure components every month and their contributions back are less than 1% of their profits.

  4. Ain't no one stopping you: www.aliexpress.com

  5. Yes, and you need to use 8 data bits, no stop bit.

  6. The kids of today will never figure out how to find the BBC3 on this Interwebs thing.

    100% correct. And so many of the end results don't really need to work anyway, because they are for government subcontracts or other projects that actually don't have to work, except for billing hours.

    OK, $150 a month. We aren't talking huge expense here.

    Yeah right. Try telling the space nutters that. They will just say "well there are things in Physics we don't understand yet" and go on with their plans for exploring the Universe from their Mom's basement.

    Soon? When is this "AI" going to come? So far we haven't seen anything close to AI, even though we have been working on it for decades.

    Large data pipe? You mean like a $50 month Internet connection?

    Remote working from India doesn't work well. The end result is a disaster in quality of the product. But it is a CHEAP disaster. MBA types like cheap (except for themselves).

    That is dumb advice. He didn't learn "what not to do" because there are infinite ways for a project to fail. You can fail at everything and it won't make your next project any more likely to be successful.

    Let me know when we can cure the common cold or when we have actual gene therapy to cure diseases. If it is "not that difficult" then why hasn't anyone it, ever? There are billions of dollars to the first person that can do it. You cannot "manipulate" genes with our current technology. It isn't a computer program.

  22. You guys are crazy. We aren't any closer to anything they mentioned in this article than we were 50 years ago. And more people die of choking on hot dogs than terrorism. And the world won't end if it is 1-2 degrees warmer. You are more likely to die of local smog. Give me a break.

    That is like saying "just create an AI" that will wipe up humanity. The best we can do is Siri. We aren't in any danger.

  24. What I meant was it wasn't "accurate" in the sense that they knew what replacing the sequence does.

  25. Scientists cannot edit DNA quickly and accurately. They don't even know how DNA works really. Much the like the fear of AI it is totally overblown. We aren't any closer to AI than we were in the 1960s.
