  1. Re:Holy crap on Ask Slashdot: How Many (Electronics) Gates Is That Software Algorithm? · · Score: 1

    it's perfectly thought out. it's a psychological trick, all any witness will describe is an ugly girl with a gross mustache.

    the same can be done with a ridiculous outfit and face paint but that will draw attention once you leave too.

    it's easier than that. just walk in with a note "PUT ALL OF THE MONEY IN A BAG AND NOBODY GETS HURT"

    might want to put on a fake mustache or a long wig and a stuffed bra if you have a girly face.

  10. Re:It's a product, not leverage to sell other prod on Are Tablets Replacing Notebook Computers? (Video) · · Score: 1

    IMHO tablets will really take off when they hit ~$100-$150.

    they have and they are

    MeMO 7 HD and Sero 7 are both very respectable models in that price range.

    they still make them, look up the ASUS Zenbook models.

  12. why? on Cracking Atlanta Subway's Poorly-Encrypted RFID Smart Cards Is a Breeze · · Score: 3, Informative

    I don't understand why these systems are set up like this, operationally it's not much different from EZ-Pass which works fine with an account based system, putting the value tracking on the cards is just asking for an upgrade treadmill even if it's well designed now, 10 years from now it will be easilly cracked. compare CPU vs GPU/FPGA/ASIC hashing advances

  13. Re:Han? on Iowa State AIDS Researcher Admits To Falsifying Findings · · Score: 1

  14. Re:Is it a competitor? on GNU Octave Gets a GUI · · Score: 4, Interesting

    Open source projects have three competitive advantages which allow a slow but relentless domination.

    1) available at no cost
    2)project immortality independent of it's creator's solvency.
    3)ability to be adapted to fit a specific need.

  16. Re:Internet in a nutshell on Millions of Dogecoin Stolen Over Christmas · · Score: 1, Insightful

    bitcoin was engineered from the start to be inherently deflationary, this goal was met and in doing so it has failed as a currency.

  18. disqualifying on Ask Slashdot: To Publish Change Logs Or Not? · · Score: 1

    not posting change logs is going to all but disqualify you from consideration from many shops, unless your offering is the only one that can work, or none of your competitors offer change logs. how can anyone manage a deployment to hundreds+ or thousands+ of users without knowing what is going to change.

    the alternative is vastly longer deployment testing, since instead of testing what has changed and things related to it, you are essentially doing a ground up test of every single function used every way that is important to the customer.

    either that or install and pray.

    the government could easily take control of bitcoin, all it takes is 51% of the network. to execute such an attack they could even use less computing resources than that by first segmenting off the network by national boundaries.

    cut the hand off and attach a heated pump it will work just fine.

    any security system is only as secure as it is cost effective for attackers to bypass. pumps and heaters are not expensive. building an interface for the arteries and veins in an arm will be moderately more expensive but not much since the interface does not need to be medical grade or last very long.

    any security system that encourages an attacker to cut off part of my body is a security system I will not use
