I have an XPS 13. I installed the latest Fedora. I really like it--it drives the display at full resolution, and touch screen worked easily. There are a few well-documented small tweaks to the BIOS to get it to install and boot.
Regarding releasing the transcripts, on February 5th, Hillary said she would "look into it. I don't know the status." http://www.cbsnews.com/news/hi... She has dragged her feet since then. Now, thankfully, some of them have been released so voters can read them and judge for themselves in time for the election. It obviously was not in her interest to have them made available.
If there are taxes to be collected, I'm sure governments will find a way to expand their territory. Look at the incidence of Island-building in South China sea: http://www.nytimes.com/interac...
This would be a great way for a young, gifted, educated network Security expert to break into the job market. The bug bounty is nice. But there would be more value in mentioning on a resume, and using a photograph of the check as proof of being an effective white-hat.
It's maybe becoming more like the TV show "Friends" with everybody in a relationship. It is remarkable the writers can come up with an interesting new script every week considering the show is in its Seventh season.
a link to some reports does not support your assertion that "All nuclear plant incidents are publicly reported." It seems likely to me some incidents are classified. But would welcome a link from you to something that backs up what you said. (for example, if there is an official policy that none are classified)
The paper mentioned in TFA referred to nuclear facilities and was not limited to just nuclear power plants
Link? I know that NRC hasn't reported any incidents before 1999 http://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/... . The wikipedia page speaks of incidents which are just recently declassified http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N... (footnote 43) and were not disclosed to the public by the DOE (see rocketdyne )
That being said, (and fwiw) Nuclear power as safe, clean energy. However doesn't take away the value of the research paper as to potential threat posed by insiders. Even if it has never happened, it still would be horrible consequences if it did.
So you are saying that because the "2012 event" was caused by a mistake rather than a by a malicious action by the insider. So you are saying that there is no legitimate fear because the motive of the insider was probably pure. However, this is contradicted by the paper which said: An internal investigation found “evidence of potential tampering as the cause of the
abnormal condition,” as the company reported to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC).
Another way to look at it is this: From what I read about the incident, a fluid was put into the lubrication system of the backup diesel generator which would have caused the generator to quickly overheat and fail, if it were ever to be run (like in an emergency, for example). Do you realize that this is precisely what caused the Fukushima nuclear disaster in Japan in 2011? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F... The cooling system for the reactors failed because they didn't have power from any diesel generator, and this (in part) caused the meltdown.
It sounds wise for nuclear industry to remain vigilant to the possibility of insider threat.
No exactly. The paper suggests that "truth may be hard to decipher in an industry shrouded in security" which makes sense because incidents/responses would probably be highly classified. Especially involving insiders. So the best "leading examples" as you say would probably not be published in a publicly-available source.
The article in Stanford News is informal, but it refers to a scholarly research paper that is a retrospective of historical events, and its conclusions seem to be well-supported by facts.
Netflix is a really innovative company. No doubt they would develop a pricing model to reflect when a customer optionally participates in peer-to-peer sharing.
Depends on how the domain is defined. Electricity comes from power plants and batteries, which have varying lower efficiency values. This motorcycle likely fills a niche requirement where fuel saving is not a large consideration.
Government services are not necessarily more benevolent than private industry. For examples, search for "Detroit government corruption." In fact, TFA tells about the competitive ramifications (e.g. More choices for the consumer) of this Google proposal.
It is also trivial to disassemble and decompile closed-source software. Starting with the names of routines from the public entry points, trace arguments through the code, and thus find potentially exploitable defects. It's almost as easily as the rather obscure "style" of the openssl code that had the heartbleed bug.
The problem is, there is a chilling effect because of laws and uncertainty surrounding reverse engineering: http://www.chillingeffects.org... . Therefore, perhaps only criminals will do it looking for exploits, Rather then well-funded (fat enforcement target) Google development teams. Therefore closed source is more vulnerable.

Hillary's campaign would love it if everyone is too afraid to read Wikileaks.

It will be interesting to see if the TV program has strong Microsoft product placement--like everyone using Windows phones and Surface computers.
I can finally tell the wife I have a compelling reason to buy a 3-D printer for our house. It's great for creating construction materials.

Looks as if this is a new application for strain gauges. The team's analysis and use of the data is novel and noteworthy.
Find a job that requires a super-high security clearance.
The Capitol police showed remarkable restraint.
There's already a federal Do Not Call registry, so government has already solved the problem! https://www.donotcall.gov/
It isn't always easy to identify Islamists.

It would be useful for something like a timesheet app. Not interesting to the general public, and yet useful within an enterprise.
Maybe not so legitimate, but he is certainly an active hacker. For example : http://laetitia-schlumberger.com/index0.php and http://horeblawski.eu/euricms/
Softpedia profiled this person in an article: http://news.softpedia.com/news/Hackers-Around-the-World-No-Flaws-Escape-This-Georgian-s-Longrifle0x-252180.shtml
However, a subsequent comment by the author says:
"When this article was published the researcher was a respected member of an important security research team. In the meantime, his work became more "controversial."
