This fact sheet describes, in condensed form, Swedish regulations and routines for obtaining entry visas, residence and work permits, and residence permits when establishing a company.
I feel it's an honour (we traditionally adhere to Commonwealth English) when a foreigner takes interest in my country.
The sorts of ideas I'm looking for are ones that (1) exploit nerds' nerdiness, (2) go outside the normal channels of influence, (3) increase nerds' effective voting power by several orders of magnitude, (4) are legal, (5) target critical swing states, and (6) can be done as a hobby.
If not for (4), it would have been obvious that he calles for breaking in to the appropriate computers. I'm inclined to think (4) is a measurement error!:-)
That's called affirming the consequent. It's not insightful, informative, or valuable in any way; it's a fallacy.
I think your parent's reasoning is that regardless of whether the government is guilty or not, no government agency would say the government is guilty. Therefore, a government agency now saying the government is not guilty carries no information about the guilt of the government.
More specifically, let G be "The government is guilty." and let A be "The investigating government agency says the government is guilty.". We assume that ~G=>~A, i.e., the agency will not blame the government if the government is innocent. We also assume that G=>~A, i.e., if the government is guilty, they will force the agency to cover it up. Under these assumptions, both G and ~G lead to ~A, so the fact that we observe ~A should be obvious and does not say anything about G.
Absolutely, that would be nice (the adventurous option). Why the VPN, though? I have simple customs, I just tunnel over SSH when I need to encrypt a connection. What is it I am missing by not doing VPN?
The insight that killers don't kill too close to their homes help detectives. It has nothing to do with bees, really. Bees just happen to behave in the same way.
The European Space Agency (ESA) is not the same thing as, or even a part of, the European Union (EU). This iTNews are apparently clueless, and I can't believe that Slashdot fell for it! >-(
I don't really like Firefox-3.x because of the way it is being developed which is starting to look like feature creep is going to bloat it up
What is it you see as the bloat problem in Firefox? Is it memory usage? Keeping the graphical interface clean is all that really matters, as I see it. I use Firefox 3 and I'm not shying away from add-ons (as long as they don't clutter the interface) and yet my browser window contains almost nothing but this Slashdot page we are at.
Top: Menu bar, back and forward buttons, address field, throbber. All on a single row. (No need for a search box when you can use keywords in the address field.)
Right: Scroll bar.
Bottom: Staus bar (Says "Ready" and shows the only bloat: the Greasemonkey symbol)
Left: nothing
Computer security includes things like
- encryption
- steganography
- signatures
- passwords and
- access control lists.
That is cool maths and tech. Stuff that matters. How disappointed I get when the "security researchers" write about, not interesting security measures, but just how the security is implemented. Boring, that's sociology!
Making sure your users use secure software is important and all, but it's not something I want to read about on Slashdot. I want my old geeky Slashdot back!
Unfortunately, this NIC's fault showed up as the radar not working. What were they supposed to fail-over to? Binoculars?
I suppose so, if it's possible to do it that way. Also, have the planes do the old-fashioned "circle the airport and keep an eye out for other traffic" if that works with big, heavy planes. It sure gives you (the pilot) a nice sense of being a free and sovereign person anyway, like on small airfields.:-)
Wind puffs during night turn the turbines, which compress air and store it underground. The stored air can then turn the turbines to regenerate the night puffs during the day, when people are awake and can appreciate them! Profit!

I mean, isn't it just an audio player like any other?

Is the group's works available online somewhere? I'd like to see their condensed style.
Javascript | yes
Are you really sure?

And it's not biotech as someone tagged the story! Scheesh!

To answer those toughies, you need a good lawyer. Not slashdot.
But it's good he posted here anyway. It makes for a good discussion topic, much better than a lot of other things we see around here!
I thought all computers came with a cup holder. I know mine keeps retracting at the most inconvenient times spilling coffee all over the place.
Some more recent models apparently have cup holders with no moving parts. You just pour your drink into the slit. It's the future.

Unless you think it's a good thing that some people can snoop on others conversations, this should be a really good reason to embrace free software.

in this case would be the ability to run air traffic control without all those fancy computrons, should the need arise.
It is not gutsy to do this. It is childish at best.
Gutsy and childish aren't mutually exclusive, you know.
I think you overestimate the attention span of the type of people who compulsively install Facebook apps.
Even if you would lose that first crowd, you might get other users at a later point.
