... what with ever-increasing effective apertures and all, we are going to see earth-sized explanets within some 20 or 30 years, at least during my expected lifetime. Maybe we will, within that time, even have spectroscopic analyses of some of these planets' atmospheres: oxygen? no oxygen ? Water in gas phase ? Nobody would have ever imagined that when I was an adolescent. All of which is pretty exciting.
Well. Someone has to do it, I'll do it: to point out to you that the 300 light years are not the planetary orbit's radius, but the distance between Earth and that other planetary system. Tsheesh.
Obviously, Turkey still has quite some issues to resolve: the Northern Cyprus problem, and now this. Not to mention the frequent clashes with Greece, and the suppression of the Kurdish minority.
Good question. That the question is good, is proved by the fact that I really, really had to think for some time before coming up with an answer. The last time I saw something truly original or innovative was around the end of 2007. Yes, that is sad.
At my former employer's, a colleague and I once gave a course with the help of OWASP Webgoat. It was in the evening, so on employees' own time. But lots of people came, and when time was up, we had to almost drag them out of the building. Including the secretaries, who had had great fun "stealing" credit card numbers.
To half of us slashtards here, you seem a whiny half-grown-up. To the other half, it is not fully intelligible what goal exactly you are trying to reach . For the potential future CEO of an internet company, that is a bad start. Get yourself a business angel, work hard and stop embarrassingly mentioning who your father is. I mean it. Stop whining and work hard.
There are worse less-than-humans: developers who refuse to put a blank space between parentheses and the first/last word ( like in "(new Hashtable(89))" ). My holy war against them has been going on for 19 years now.
always assumed that the UK was in the middle because of GMT but then I'm very Eurocentric myself. So, is Europe in the West or the East then?
Neither. Europe is in the North, and North == good, as another slashtard noticed:-D
Me being in Central Europe, I am in the middle of good. You being in the UK, you are located somewhat more toward the edge of good....

No, not yet. A surveillance state already ? Sure enough.
He gave away a class of algorithms. Not his actual algorithm instance. The information is worthless to you, to me, to anyone, for an actual exploit.
Microsoft is doomed. Not this year. Not next year. In the next ten years: yes, probably.
for a couple of buzzwords...

You may find the following information useful: Chavez is dead. Has been so, as I write this, for several weeks.
No poison jet did ever wither
more of devil's seed than mine
the wine and beer that urg'd me hither
do rush out of me as brine
in which your pickled shame shall slither
to oblivion's rock-faced shrine.

Ubuntu is the stuff you discover under your shoe when someone in the room says "It smells strange in here".

Free and unlimited access to publicly funded research should already, without a law to enforce it, be a fact. So it is here in Europe, at least.
Ach mein Gott, where are the mod points when you need them ?
