You mean hitmen to kill the hackers and terrorists?
As long as Microsoft can keep the public pointing their collective finger a hackers, they don't have to spend the money. An ignorant public == Happy Shareholders.
Sheesh, I mean the guy in the article was trying to imply that he was causing harm by even mentioning it.
That the western leaders, the US in particualar, claim that the simulation is used to model safe "containment" is what is usually referred to in civilian arenas as a "lie".
That's what struct me dumb(er) when the French went as far as to admitt that that last dedonation in that hapless atol was mainly to get their simulation more accurate.
So, what is the fucking point in banning/shunning atmospheric, then underground explosions when all the money is just channeled into evil computer programs. Evil? Indeed. You think they're not model blast radius, radiation effects, re-occupation time limits? How could they not with such an arsenal? Re-machining, re-targetting, 10 old warheads become 10 new warheads and the treaties be damned - we can wage war on a technicality with technology.
.. and I have an infinate spool of paper tape for swap...

To "beg a question" is where you assume
in your argument what you're trying to claim or prove.
You know, premises, conclusions, inference
so forth. "Small scooters are the
best mode of transport because of their
diminuative size. The smaller the vehicle
he better form of transport it is, hence
this new scooter is very fancy-pants."
Re: 128bit keys: Do the maths. If attacking the keyspace is your only option, that's 340,282,366,920,938,463,463,374,607,431,768,211,46 keys my friend. That is a Large Number. Let's assume DNET come out with a client that checks 100 thousand keys per second per client, and there are 100 million clients. That's about 38 million times the age of the Universe (~14B) to search half the key space. I repeat, do the maths.
Re: 1024-bit keys: [sigh] That's the
size of the prime modulus. When your counting
bits, it is not the same measure of strength
as symetric (eg. RC4, IDEA, Rijndael).
Just yesterday
I noticed a fruit-fly swimming around in my
girlfrinds cup of cold coffee. We have a little
compost bin in the kitchen that we don't
empty often enough. It (the fly) was swimming
around and around, occasionally bumping into
a drowned friend.
For some reason, I fished it out and put it on
the saucer. I walked around, still submerged
in milky coffee, suface tension sticking it to
the surface of the saucer, leaving a trail of
coffee as it walked and still on its way to
drowning.
I put some water in the palm of my hand and
gingerly picked up the fly on the tip of my
finger and dunked in in. Once in the water it
suddenly started walking around much faster,
totally under water,
free of the oils from the milk. Still drowning,
though.
I drained from my palm. It was left again
stuck within the confines of the liquid stuck
to its body. I touched it with a tissue
and the water wicked away. It began walking
around like a normal fly, only its
wings now stuck down.
For the next few minutes I watched it crawl
around the hairs on my wrist, pausing every
now and again to clean its head, legs and
wings in that very-fly-like way.
Then, zip, it took off again.
A few moments later, my girlfriend return
and sat beside me with a book. The fly
did a couple of low passes over the pages and
was promptly swatted.
Thanks to everyone who signed on! We expected 500, we got 5000. This

emails recieved about sign ups after October 29 will be deleted automatically so as to give the staff more time to realize their

That game also allows players to engage in broadbased direct combat situations, with the underlying theme being a battle against insurgents in the Middle East.
Riiiight, I wonder how long before our Islamic
friends are airling screen cams of digital Americans storming into a room and shooting cardboard cut-outs of people with crecents painted on their chests.
For AU$60/annum (about 86c US) for PBS, you get radio selections by people actually interested in what they're playing, not just feeding the player with whatever HQ put on the fax. Melbourne has a strong live music scene and many of the advertisers are these venues and other industry: recording studios, media replication, special events.
They go as far as having 'patrons' per segment where the sponsor (named personally in most cases) gets mentioned a couple of times for their payment and gets music played explicitly for them - it might be a panel beaters or a bakery that happens to like regae, often with no vested interest in what gets played, as long as it is good.
Same bits/bytes layed out in the same order on the hardware will/should lead to same/similar structs in memory. That assumes that the granularity of each component is either implicit or defined explicitly (ie. you can mask and chop 4 bytes or one int - same result when written out).
That said, the inclusion of that comment and the identicle white-space would, if submitted to me for marking in DRIVERS101 would lead to an instant fail and suspension of commit rights.
"All of our email lists are permission based. Our lists have been cultivated through list broker alliances and affinity agreements that we have established."

"We didn't ask permission, but we don't feel guilty about that. Our lists were purchased in bulk on CD-Rs in exchange for sexual favours. We hope to aquire more CD-Rs as it's the only sex we get."
What an utterly naïve proposal. These people must surely have spent a little too much time between tags.
The act of expression is *designed* to be primed with meaning and inference. If you want to distinctly express a feeling, emotion or cultural concern, how you go about it is just as important as the idea itself as far as communication is concerned.
If you choose to mark up your meaning using this non-sensical and fundamentally worthless tag system, you are declaring nothing save that you have a mark-up hammer and your ignorance of the world is your nail.

If the US audience hear her speak with her native
New Zealand accent, they'll have to assume

Reminds me of a camping trip my parents went on.
They (from Oz, like me) were in in England when
they heard a child of a fellow camper proclaim
to her parents: "They sound English, mum,
but they're a funny kind of English."
Hence the Australian flag hastily painted on the site of the tent. That was 1965 and

Ummm.. you didn't contradict him. No need for "Not So": he implied that a meteorite would not get down to the terminal velocity from above it => Burn, baby.
The following link is to an empirical comparison of
a number of scripting and compiled languages.
Interesting reading as it takes into account
issues such as program lenght, reliability,
memory consumption amongst other metrics:
I agree. This feeling of protectionism for these distibutions is akin to the stomach churn associated with wild life documentaries containing footage of those hapless wildebeest attempting to cross the swollen, croc infested waters.
Jump, old fella! You can make it! [crunch] Oh, dear.

A. The invention directly relates at time of conception to the employer's business,

But of course they are smaller than the american ones, usually have 4 cyl engines.
Hence, the term "utility", as opposed to "penis-substitution".
