This problem has been solved in TOF laser range finders, like the hand held ones used on golf courses. An expander chip takes the incoming analog signal and stretches it out a million times with considerable precision. The signal can then be analyzed by standard low cost and low power processors.
The challenge here is that instead of a reflecting laser, you have the call/process/response in the equation. That process time will be orders of magnitude larger than the signal traversal. So, you'd have to have very accurate and standard processing times.
Agreed. The processing times of the ASICs in the car and the key would have to be extremely well calibrated with very low clock drift tolerances. Crypto would all have to be out of band, with some kind of signature exchange at the end of the process to validate the message chain.
No, they don't. The keys passively send out signals without user interaction, probably in response to a signal sent out by the car which has a bigger battery than the key. In either case, if you have a keyless car, the car communicates with the key without user interaction.
(Assuming the key/car are using private/public key pairs)
You'd have to put a reasonably accurate clock in the key, and then have it encrypt and send timestamps to the vehicle using a sequence of rapidly fired request messages followed by response messages.
The car could then decrypt the messages and compare the timestamps from the sequence of messages measuring the distance between the key and the car. The clock in the key would have to have similar accuracy to a laser ranger finder.
The actual protocol would be a bit more complicated in the details, but the basics outlined above are what is needed.
Meanwhile companies that contribute to open source can write down the entire expense of development including salaries, benefits, software, facility, and equipment.
They are using the Low Voltage Differential Pairs to transmit some information and single ended bidirectional connections for other data. Let's you use one HDMI port for multiple data sources.
In order to prove standing, he will have to prove that he's sustained damages. He will find that hard to do. The kid might as well sue for having his financial future mortgaged to a hilt while he is at it. At least in that case, he could document how he is being royally screwed.
I could not agree more. Sue the phone companies, sue the deaf messaging service, sue Linked In, sue Facebook, etc. This is a lawyers field day. I can't believe people aren't lining up at the trough for this one.
I'd still hire a lawyer and at least get some advice. I don't profess to have knowledge of Finnish law, but if this were entirely in the domain of the US - it doesn't matter that other people are doing the harassment. The civil courts do not work like a CSI TV episode. You do not need empirical proof beyond a reasonable doubt in a civil case. A good lawyer could make that guy's life miserable.
As the article stated, the police, FBI, and other authorities have thus far done nothing. Sue his ass in court. Criminal court is not the only avenue to pursue justice.
I am not an expert on Finnish law, but in the US, the civil courts have a much lower threshold of proof. Even without any proof, being sued by someone is a huge inconvenience.
Time to hire a lawyer, one in the US and one in Finland. A Finnish lawyer is going to be able to mobilize the local authorities, and better sue the guy in Finnish civil courts.
No problem. A STEM OPT rule is a payback from Congress to the rich and powerful higher education lobby here in the United States that allows colleges and universities to subsidize their bloated budgets by enrolling lots of smart and motivated foreigners as full tuition paying students, letting said students work in the US without a HB1 Visa while in school. However, in order to not violate the equally rich and powerful protectionist lobbies, the STEM OPT rules have a limited duration.
So, we educate and train these individuals and then kick the ones who cannot afford a good immigration lawyer (another equally rich and powerful lobby) out of the country, subsidizing the IT industries in their homelands and perpetuating the drive to outsource high tech labor outside of the US.
It's a brilliant strategy that relies on central planning over free markets to control the distribution of human resources.
Its a free country, let them advertise. Just please drop the requirements that they have to list the side effects. Eating dinner with kids and having to listen to 4 hour erections and other inappropriate dinner subjects is outrageous. If people are too stupid to listen to their doctor, they deserve to die.
Languages are best served when there is one way to express a statement, rather than two (or three, or four, etc.) By making expressions consistent, it is easier to learn and read.
Perl is a classic example of punctuation gone awry, although it is not alone in this regard.
Microsoft should buy RedHat and provide offerings that make RHEL more compatible with a Microsoft server environment. Makes total business sense for both companies.
Otherwise, Amazon Web Services is going to eat their lunch (both Microsoft's and RedHat's)

No doubt. What a terribly misleading article. However, the ruling is very interesting. The issue over disclosure of the source code is fascinating.

The chromium open source tar ball will continue to be updated and support 32-bit x86 and ARM for at least the next 5 years.
The proprietary Chrome binaries which include features listed below will not longer be updated after March 2016:
- AAC, H.264, and MP3 Support
- Adobe Flash (PPAPI)
- Google Update
