  1. Inteview with Ernest J Friedman-Hill on Jess in Action · · Score: 0

    DevX.com has an interview with Dr. Ernest J. Friedman-Hill inwhich he talks about its (JESS) development and what the next steps are.

  2. Re:... and Stanislaw Lem on The Issues of Nano-Safety · · Score: 0

    Sounds more like the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition

  3. And one more nightmare...Weaponization on The Issues of Nano-Safety · · Score: 0

    And just what happens when the idea zealot get a hold of this? Gives whole new meaning to the term 'Dirty Bomb'. Imagine 2 - 3 kilos of nano carbon attached to TNT and detonated over Manhattan at say 50 meters during rush hour or lunch? Where does that put the fifteen percent mortality rate?

  4. Were almost reaching a chicken and egg situation on The Issues of Nano-Safety · · Score: 1, Funny

    Where we need Good Nano in us to watch for bad Nano and destroy it. However in order to create the good that watches for the bad...

    Which would then bring up Nano-patch management. Think we need to get Macro-patch management down fist.

  5. So the question is... on The Issues of Nano-Safety · · Score: 0

    Will it be moderated and will individual bots get dinged for constructing/deconstructing flamebate?

  6. You'd have thought they would have learned... on Memory Hole Un-Redacts Redacted DOJ Memo · · Score: 0

    After they did this during the MS trial with PDF and black rectangles.

    *SIGH*

    You tax dollars at work, glad to see were getting our money's worth.

  7. Re:Oh for the love of god on Symantec Hit by Product Activation Glitch · · Score: 1, Insightful

    Any lock no matter if its software or physical can eventually be defeated. Actually that applies to any security measure, if it was designed by a human; it can be defeated by one.

    All a lock does is keep honest people honest. It will never keep out a determined attacker.

    I represent SCO and you owe $$$ for infringement....

    Ahhhhhh, What a nightmare!

  10. Oh Boy... on Microsoft Adding Blogs to Longhorn? · · Score: 0

    ...Another feature to patch.

    And will this be as nearly impossible to remove (*cough* MSN Messenger *cough* XP) if you don't want it?

  11. Stupid Question... on Gates: 'You don't need perfect code' for Security · · Score: 2, Funny

    Does the same speech writer work for both Bill Gates and George Bush?? The both seem to be making some pretty preponderously dumb speeches lately.

  12. He's right, but they're not helping on Gates: 'You don't need perfect code' for Security · · Score: 0

    While its true you don't need perfect code, however, when the tools you use (i.e. theirs) actually 'promote' unsafe coding practices. The issue in particular I'm thinking of is the feature in both the C and VB compiler where you can actually TURN OFF buffer over-run and under-run checks when you compile the executable. I think I remember reading some where that these types of vulnerabilities (buffers) are like 90 - 95 % of the problems out there.

  13. Re:My Opinion Still Has NOT Changed... on RIAA Calls Settlements Proof that Education is Working · · Score: 0

    Yup Exactly my point. The only CD's I have purchased in the last 5 years have either been from the Artists directly or from other countries.

    Same goes for the folks who paid the SCO invoices for Linux

    F*** Them!

  16. Just like ValuJet on A Gator By Any Other Name · · Score: 2, Insightful

    ...Changing to AirTran, will probably work for it in the short term, most people wont remember the change in the long term, and there fore the ruse will work unless they change their practices. And yes the public is that stupid.

  17. The current fervor will continue until... on Patching Paranoia - How Fast Do You Patch? · · Score: 1

    ...either another Monster (along the lines of blaster or welchia) doesn't rear its head comes along, which if everyone keeps patching within 48 - 96 hours wont happen for a while. And we according human nature become complacent and let 48 - 96 become 96 - 192 becomes 192 - 384 becomes 384 - 768

    OR

    We get another patch that breaks things


    Either way the cycle will begin again, 'tis the circle of life.
