Why wouldn't a similar algorithm work to provide automated moderation? It seems to me that you could certainly identify clusters of words that indicate low-value posts?
Hmmmm...ya know, sometimes the rabid advocacy doesn't make sense to me.
I've deployed FreeBSD at client sites, I've deployed Linux at client sites, and I've deployed MS stuff at client sites. You know what the kicker is? You gotta pick the solution for the problem. I've lost count of the times I've thrown in a quick FreeBSD, PHP, MySQL solution to solve a problem, and I've done the same with Linux....
The problem is, you rabid *nix d00dz want OSS installed for everything. I'm sorry....point me at the OSS equivalent of Sharepoint and I'll start deploying that. But until there exists an OSS equivalent of genuinely innovative stuff like this, then Sharepoint is the solution.
You can bitch and moan about MS insecurity, but at the end of the day, if you know your job as a network\system engineer, those problems go away.
As far as open viewpoints go, yep....some of those MS solutions address problems that the zealots haven't even thought of...even MS is allowed to tell us about them
Well I could be wrong, and forgive me if I've misinterpreted your post...but
Don't all of these compression algorithms rely on psychacoustic modeling to remove 'extraneous' information from the bitstream?
If that is correct, and the algorithms are implemented correctly, then really what we are looking for is the best perceived result.
Just because the output meets the algorithm input->output specs, justn't mean it's the best output as perceived by humans.
Maybe think of it as optimizing sort routines? Yep, bubble-sort or b-tree still output a sorted list, but the perceived value is that the b-tree is better because it performs it's function more quickly.
This isn't an exercise in getting the frequencies algorithmically correct - the end result has to be listenable.
CARS (RFC793 [1]) are widely deployed and one of the most often used reliable end to end protocols for PEOPLE TRANSPORTATION. Yet when it was
defined over 20 years ago the ROAD SYSTEM, as we know it, was a different place lacking many of the threats that are now common.
Recently several rather serious threats have been detailed that can pose new methods for both denial of service and possibly data
injection by blind attackers. This document details those threats and also proposes some small changes to the way CARS handle inbound segments that either eliminate the threats or at least minimize them to a more acceptable level.
I would imagine that this setup could be marginally dangerous and possibly even more expensive to ensure.
why?
In order to get the ease of interoperation that I guess you are looking for, you would need each device to identify itself and it's interfaces to the other components in your rack. So the cluey burglar simply wardrives your neighbourhood.

Really, Ethernet has achieved dominance over the wired infrastructure.
The 802.11 (x) standard has achieved pretty much dominance over the wireless infrastructure.
It seems to me that this may be just another competing standard that will introduce incompatibilities and vendor lockin down the track. How is this magically different to bluetooth, wap, etc????
Kewl....all the early adopters can run off and buy this kit....I'll try and find a cost-effective consumer solution that is secure.
I personally would have liked to have seen MS play a little bit harder in the Wireless space. Combined with their Kerberos implementation, we could have seen a commodity EAP-TLS system that worked out of the box. Boom! All of your wireless security concerns gone.
And no....don't talk to me about open-source here. I''ve played around with building an EAP-TLS system with Free Radius and after two days of solid effort it still wasn't working.
Have done it in the real world, and have found that reminding the vendor who the customer is normally helps.
That Intraspect webpage has all the right buzzwords, but I've never heard of it. For content management I always used Documentum, and for intranet stuff, a decent web programmer with templates.
Point taken...some app vendors do try and insist on devoted box for their application, but competition is a good thing. "You know...I could go with company y instead "
And I LOATHE SQL patching...you can service pack 10 individual SQL installations...I'll do one thank you very much...
Yeah, but this state of affairs still doesn't mean instant server farm...You just need to plan it a bit better.
Lots of SQL driven apps - put in one big-ass SQL box. That box is redundant power/fans/array/network - everything. Then the individual apps all get a DL360 or equivalent.
Same goes for your TS applications.
If you really want to have some fun, one big-ass box for SQL, and another big-ass box with VM-Ware hosts to take the place of all those DL360s. You don't need a server-farm (in fact you'd rather not, because controlling climate, power becomes expensive), you just need to plan it.
With HDD capacity going up, the best way to backup you media is to move them to a big array of disk.
Instead of repeatedly moving to different media types, simply copy directly to a file system...This way you get economies of scale as the price of HDD-based storage comes down
As a side note: this also makes retrieval easier too. Set up a front end (I recommend myHTPC and simply stream to the display\listening device of your choice. Voila! You don't need to change pesky CD\DVDs anymore either!
"The Irish Presidency explains on its website that it is sponsored by Microsoft. Ireland is "the largest software-exporting country in Europe", thanks to a fiscal policy which makes it a tax haven for large US companies: it has a tax rate on patent revenues of 0%."
So it would appear that US corporations are subverting international processes for their own benefit. This is exactly the same as the Australia-US situation, where compliance with draconian US IP laws HAVE BEEN MADE A CONDITION of the US entering into a Free Trade Agreement.
I'm struggling to cope with this though: the Irish stuff up IP laws in EU - but they make Guinness...Don't make me choose!!!!!....
The one thing that I like about the idea for shifting the hurricane is that when there wasn't a hurricane to be shifted, you could redirect all that energy onto a bank of photovoltaic cells.
Of course...the one thing I don't like about the idea is that us humans don't have a whole lot of success in anticipating the consequences of fucking around with nature:)
Where I work, a stopped line is worth AU$2M a day.
The way we got around this is simply to isolate that VLAN at the router. The line machines only need to talk to the SQL DB and the AS/400. Only allow the machines to talk to those two IPs.
If you really want to have some fun with this, you can block it at the port level as well

Humans are analog devices...
Ah-ha!
But if the wheel had been square, I could have patented my improvement.
Instead of square, make 'em a triangle!!!

I'm here all week, try the veal.
admittedly the article was a bit light on detail, but this solution still doesn't seem to address emergency services (000, 911, etc) call routing...
