That's not at all a parallel. My argument is that (exists x in S such that P(s)) => not(forall x in S : not P(s)). Your argument is that (exists x in S such that P(s)) => forall x in S: P(s).

As I understand the US system, it merges the equivalent of the Baccalaureate into university, so students enter university at 16 and spend a loooong time there.
Theoretical CS has always been a subset of maths. The first degree in the world in the field was Cambridge University's Dip.Comp.Sci, which came out of the Mathematical Laboratory.
When did you last read a paper about observations of real-world network traffic phenomena?
When I was an undergrad. But I know there's been more recent research in this area, because I've seen reference made to the results in Slashdot stories.
Or take the 2010 election. Party X, the Lib Dems, got 23.0% of the votes and 8.8% of the seats; Labour got 29.0% of the votes and 39.7% of the seats, and the Tories got 36.1% of the votes and 47.1% of the seats.
The way the flag looks at a bit level depends on the image format you use. In a non-compressed lossless raster format the relationship with the key is about as obvious as a slap in the face with a kipper, so that point doesn't hold any water at all unless you would consider converting a file from.bmp to.jpeg to be creating a new work which was merely "inspired" by the original.
As to the author's intent - that's what copyright is all about. The clue is in the word. If you independently create a work which is remarkably similar to mine and you can prove that it was an independent creation (which might be rather difficult!) then you don't need a licence from me to distribute or exploit your work. If your work is derived from mine you do. The creation of the flag from the number is such an obvious case of translation that it would be a miracle were a court which upheld the copyright status of the number not to hold the flag to be a derivative work.
No, but the flag is a "derivative work" of the number: if the number can be protected by copyright then the creator of the flag needed a licence from the owner of the number's copyright.
I suggest you watch the documentary* Yes, Minister. Then you will understand the true significance of those words hidden in plain sight: "wherever possible".
* Maggie Thatcher's comments on it support according it this status.

So wait, all that money people deposit over the counter isn't in a vault? Clearly I should have gone into bank robbery rather than IT.
1. Any government on the planet prevents the public from getting even close to a nuclear plant.
That needs qualification. I visited a nuclear plant on a school trip.
Just like Three Mile Island, where it got half a mile underground? Oh, whoops, I mean "less than an inch".
(Well, actually that's a generous interpretation of your argument).

What's wrong with that? A week has two ends...
Today we laugh at the idea knowing it was just a story.
So was Troy.
But CS students are going to be doing mundane programming for a living.
So are the majority of maths graduates nowadays. Does that mean that the maths curriculum and the CS curriculum should be identical?

His wrists. Even I know that, and I've never read the comics and have only seen one of the films.

Yes, but W = Watt so you can't trust the original poster's capitalisation.

Thank you. It's sad that I had to get 70% of the way through the comments before I found one which actually recognised this obvious fact.
Can we finally kill the idea that orthography is part of grammar?
Yep, calling it KDE is a massive tweak. Er, hang on.
What's in view isn't brute-forcing over the universe of possible passwords but over the universe of probable passwords - i.e. /usr/share/dict/words.
I suppose that would be one way to make Bittorrent CPU-bound rather than IO-bound.
African or European coconut?
Dollarpounds?
