If we take a step back and see what Sept. 11 did to CNN and now The Times website, we can see that the internet can suffer from its own major over-subscription of users to servers/services. Particularly in times of significant current events when almost every connencted user demands information from authoritative sources.
And I'm sure the audience here is no stranger to the Slashdot/Schumaker-Levey effect?
There needs to be a blend between the ability of peer to peer protocols (bittorrent?) to service and distribute massive amounts of content and HTTP. Such technology would permit the audience (or data sinks) to service itself in times of major crisis and permit the important information to reach people.
My dell axim is great with a blue tooth keyboard and any cafe that has WiFi.
Open Putty i think is my ssh program- which is buggy.
I (~drool~) want to upgrade to an HTC shift asap!
(or an Advantage X701)
Your story is one that surprised me slightly. I guess that the capacity for change is in all of us. I can't say that I've yet had a change to meet up with many of my past "acquaintences" from school yet, I don't know, perhaps they have changed... I know that I have. Some for the worse, some for the better.
But based on largly on past experience at school (and thus learnt behaviour/instinct) i'd be very much on my guard and on the back foot if approached in a shopping centre out of the blue.
Uni is what us skips call University. By enlarge we don't live on campus, so college is not an accurate depiction.
I truly think that there is a place for bullys in this society.
- Bullys are required to change my oil, fill my car with petrol and clean my windows.
- Bullys are needed to sweep floors, photocopy documents and make me coffee at break times.
- Bullys are required to resurface roads and paint lines.
think of it - where would the medical industry/nerdy doctors be without bullys infighting, jumping off roofs, and falling off trail-bikes. Where would the Jerry Springer show be without the KKK I ask you!!! I NEED all theese people to laugh at throughout my day/life.
Indeed i was bullied HEAPS at primary and high school. But as soon as i started to leg-press more than most of the people around me - they 'suddenly' found more interesting things to do.
Now between my Muai Thai/MMA training and running/cycling I look back at those idiots and wonder where theyre buried. Then return to my research lab at uni to return to writing papers.
Interestingly, of the 500+ people that started the programming stream I was in at uni, i believe that at the end of it a good 1/3rd (ball park guesstimate) started smoking by the end of 3rd year.
I know I kept the coke vendor rich buying caffine and going on sugar trips.
Not sure about the increase in alcohol comsumption, bar night was never for me.
How can we ever reliably compute a model of the universe? - This system used a reduced resolutiuon to do so.
My year 8 science teacher told me that we cannot see an atom with a machine that is made of atoms, so we analyse the effect that atoms have on their surrounding environment and create a hypothesis that supports the effect. (Will we ever have a 10" x 8" of an atom?)
Similarly, how can we model every particle in the universe, when ovbiously every particle in the universe (and then some) would be required to process the model.......
If they direct their dns to my IP/server.
1. I won't be defrauding granny, 419: 0 , me: 0
2. if the ddos client is hard wired to IP address - no problem. 419: -1, me:1
3. if the client checks validity of my X.509, myne is legitimate, theirs most likly won't be if they have one. 419: 0, me: 1
If we force a 419 scammer to change IP address, or change his DNS name (or, preferably both).
have we not acheived our goal of making those trillions of SPAM messages point to a null address? there by reducing the threat of the site?
Well the hard coding gets us around sending 'penalty' traffic to a 'bystander'.
and I agree with your statement about 'identical' layout, i guess the more broad question here is how can one uniquly identify a web server... perhaps reviewing the SSL certificate from port 443 at the same ip address as port 80 (we, of course assume that there won't be any shifty content routing on the part of the fradulent site...).
this would lead one to believe that we do not siege a site when the ssl port responds with a legitimatly signed x.509 certificate...?
um, it has an ATI Radeon graphics processor. Doesn't ATI driver support on linux suck? I thought that Nvidia linux support was quite good. Based on what i've seen, Anyone?
I think that this report was perhaps written from an angle that assumes we ride kangaroos to school, after all we have to. They are the only thing that gets us out of range of those pesky crocs!
IMHO - As a PhD comp-sci student 'down-under' we are FAR from being the bottom of the pile in the tech industry and further from being a soft electronic target. I'll worry about the north korea electonic threat when they can feed their own population!!
-- Throw another shrimp on the barby luv!
Ah yes, but the real question is do you think that Universe 2.0 will be open source?
And if so, do you think that GNU 2.0 would be applicable? or perhaps the Apache licence?, maybee M$ EULA?
This is a Content Distributon network of cooperating servers colloborating to exchange information and 'level out' excess demand by distributing reqiests among n servers. Like Akamai's EdgeSuite.
based on a quick read of the front page. The providors of content in their network are never the consumers if content. thus i don't know why they call it peer-to-peer? anyone?
Slashdot Mirror
Sorry folks, old news:
Coopnet did it years ago, and HTTP(p2p) did it differently but more recently.

... Could it be that a one company server package that will rival Microsoft's Windows Server 2003 and ASP will finally emerge ...
Who knows, perhaps at some point in the future we might find microsoft complaining about anti-trust?

The above link from an anonymous coward points to a paper through some weird obfuscation that does just that. HTTP(P2P)
