I hope you don't work for NASA. Back to real science, there is 1 H atom per cubic metre of "Space" and would suggest a probability of accumulative deceleration cannot be discounted over such a long distance. NASA should know this, I think someone out for more funding;-)
Its kind of like the ion drive in reverse;-)
As for your intergalactic fart drive, only your dark matter theory may hold weight.}B-)
Postfix is fun, why do we need anything more than RPN?
Thank you gcc port people you rock;-)
Oh, HP was 10 years ahead of their time. I still use the old model because there is still nothing like it on the market today. In fact -- the newer series only offer speed as an improvement.
Did they ever fix the sqrt(0) = 1 bug ?

MD5 was never trusted as a computationally infeasible component of a complete symmetrical encryption scheme. What does this have to do with MD5 hashing signatures? Two jobs, two criteria, and two differing security threats.
So what, the signature hashing of data is one way and collisions are the way in which data is protected in a one-way encryption scheme. Linear and Quadratic probing of collisions are common with those key value signature offsets. Sure O(1) is no longer true, but if all collisions were handled (via a logic decay into a stupid simple linked list) the signature could be predicted and regenerated incrementally. However, the likelihood of a data set being the exact size is very remote due to the probabilistic nature of the actual content being more than one "thing" (i.e. sorry, but the man-in-the-middle will have to wait).
The Internet troll is a slang term used to describe:
1.) A post (on a newsgroup, or other forum) thought to be intended to incite controversy or conflict or cause annoyance or offense.
2.) A person who posts these.
Trolls are sometimes caricatured as socially-inept. This is often due to fundamental attribution error, as it is difficult to know the real traits of an individual solely from their online discourse. Indeed, since intentional trolls are alleged to knowingly flout social boundaries, it is difficult to typecast them as socially inept since they have arguably proven adept at their goal of inciting conflict.
A rare breed of nocturnal technologically savvy coffee drinker. The anti-social A.C. is related to the neo-ludite family. The North American variety is known to infest networks of varied bandwidths and breeds quickly when the practically extinct female of the species is introduced to its natural habitat. The cubicle habitat has been providing more space and hope for the survival of these species. This important creature is part of an ecosystem that even supports the all important parasitic management weasels that live alongside them in relative harmony.
Paranoia runs deep, why did the government fail to find a reputable contractor on its own soil? Oh, that's right they packed the 20lb manual on top of the equipment before it was shipped... 6 months later and still no replacement unit...

My personal choice is to publish hardware designs, but to force visitors of the research projects to write their own code (aka.EDU.) There are always options to recreate the same design in a slightly different way to avoid the copyrights, but we don't work for free.;-)
The Economically driven research encouraged in schools only creates the pretence of trade-school like pragmatisms. Science is a restrictive field these days; confirmation bias seems to be ignored or tainted by the media. The old system of priori seems to have revolved back into popularity due to investor pressures. Sadly, the Idea of creating something unique today seems as homogenous as the next release of the Windows technology. Ironically, real scientists and outlandish cranks share many of the same characteristics. No one understands or cares what they are doing until dollar signs enter the equation. However, Scammers and Geniuses share equal probable observation of a given discovery. They only differ in that a genius knows when the solution to the problem becomes a real problem when it's the only explanation. Sadly, too many papers are published by scientists that stick to the premise that current ideas are indisputable laws.
"The world is Flat people" -- open your eyes to the lies. It's the universe that's curved. =O)
1.) Patents provide disclosure of Ideas for general interpretation and improvement. 93% of all filed patents are improvements on old ideas. Your car would get very bad gas mileages indeed if companies spent their time keeping technological advances secret.
2.) The laws theoretically provide protection of a developers' hard work for 10 years. This allows individuals and companies to do more research and development with the capital generated. Note too that communism did not work =oP, and to devalue the creative members of society only squelches the opportunities possible. Greed is an awful thing, but to trade other peoples hard work for "free" items is a form of counterfeit morality. Would the hypocrisy also lead to homemade money, and trust every member of society to only print what he or she earned? I don't think so.
Not also that international treaty could ban trade with such a country... Who in their right mind would export a product to a known counterfeiter.
Got an Idea?

The Connotative meaning in today's culture does not relate to a wishful history, Latin root words, or context dependent pronunciations. Except for virtual communities of creative techno-innovators (sounds nice, don't it?), most people will red-flag a person as hostile because they refuse or don't care to understand what people are really doing.

Does scientific Confirmation-Bias exist in the Hippocampus too? The peer review of this "OLD" psychological ability to "chunk" information for 7 +-2 episodic memories is not a problem solving based semantic thought process. What about parallel distributed processing models of the brain, perhaps this irresponsible researcher had a case study that defied all statistics and the 35 years of PET scans, MRI data, and REAL SCIENTIFIC STUDY. Note too that the "chunking" ability is not a static number, and has been proven to be a learned skill (go from 5 to 80 chunks with some practice). Note also, that proactive and retroactive memories interfere with long-term memories, suggesting a gold fish's 5-second buffer may outwit this scientist with Adult Attention Deficit Disorder that obviously missed most of the confounding variables including the episodic memory of the university lectures and statistical research.
BTW: Do flash-bulb memories of traumatic events make people smarter? No, this has been proven to actually cause memory deficits. Psychology is for scientists, not a lamer with a bad case of priori and a tainted research bias.

Solving abstract problems with implemented ideas first??? Shame on you sir...
0.) post so late, no one will ever see this;) 1.) Epoxy potting compounds are NOT SECURE and only add to design and calibration problems during manufacture. See 1980's... 2.) Hardware Data encryption? Only possible with embedded recursive encryption algorithms that are dependent on unique internal protected key registers. 3.) Embedded security? If you mean Harvard architecture that's immune to overflows will prevent a privileged User from doing something stupid... lol 4.) Hardware communication security? Any discriminating algorithm must have a probable solution. However, the most secure systems I've seen use high speed synchronized internal clock offsets (not possible for satellite comm. For obvious reasons) and polymorphic encryption modules that mutate when exchanged between two nodes. 5.) Wireless comm.? Antenna-load-sensitive auto-adapting scatter-band UHF SAW based comm.
Hardware and software will always be vulnerable. Any programmer can tell you that Users never do what they are expected to do. Any hardware designer can tell you people rarely know what they want, never alone what the consumer will actually need or tolerate
Harvard Architecture was first, command and data operate in a parallel address location;)It's simpler to program, harder to abstract... Von Neumann Architecture has inherent design problems like fetch/execute cycle needing to access several memory segments to execute most single instructions (the root of buffer overflow problems.) Anyhow, the next protocol to rule supreme will be a wireless based one, probably very similar to current routing protocols and based on GPS location;) Perhaps a return to ARP forwarding routers and a low level system based on MAC address alone, no more ISO/OSI TCP/IP based stack... everyone's on my LAN... cool... lol he he he =)
