users could unwittingly allow people who follow them on the PCs, for example, to see sensitive information in e-mails they've exchanged.
Wouldn't the same users leave cookies, history and temporary files that could be viewed by anyone following them? If so many people are ignorant of this fact, isn't the duty of the library or "cybercafe" to post a notice about this possibility and what to do to protect yourself?
I like the one where if your side had 10,000 casualties in the cyber war then 10,000 people had to report to the extermination camps.
100,000 or even million entities on a whole continent is a very sparse array. Doesn't sound very realistic.
Don't lame him, blame the guys that continue to post his stories. I have had several posts rejected only to show up the next day from someone else, including this guy.
I noticed some of the same similarities. Of course Pynchon is considered literature and Stephenson is popular fiction. I don't think he is as literary as he'd like to think, but he is entertaining. On the other hand, Pynchon is a bit hard to read and take much more concentration, but well worth it.
So we are all MUCH safe now than we used to be. I don't think so. This is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to data security in this country. There are many databases out there that are just as vulnerable. Not much is being done to identify these risks.
Cyber terrorist don't have to be rocket scientists, but they could be.
unless you have a jones for MMP 2005. You have to have way too much tme on your hands to want this. Of course there are way cheaper ways to play media files off PC's. Hey what's that TV-out thing on my video card?
Pirated CD's can be had at ShanghaiCD.cn about the same time and used versions on ebay by Dec 1 from pepole who bought the game, but can't afford the video card or psu upgrade.
Microsoft was created by IBM and turned on it's master. The same could be said for Intel. Even though IBM was totally taken in by BillCo, IBM truly dropped the ball when the windows wars began in the late 80's. We still refer to PC's as IBM compatible even though they are Intel compatible. IBM thought that they could just make money off hardware, and when the PC junior failed they pulled back on both hardware and software. Bad move.
To rebutt:
In general
1. Companies do not offshore mainframe jobs.
2. Companies do not offshore critical number crunching projects.
3. The federal government does not let jobs be offshored and most h1b's don't get required clearance.
On the other hand PC software companies can offshore all they want beacuse people are used to substandard software on PC's. There have been some great games produced overseas.
It's not like they are trying to get the service for free. This is for subscribers who want to use the service differently. You can make MP3's off of broadcast radio too.
Object Rexx is kind of new and allows integration of object oriented programs on different platforms. It works on many platforms AIX, OS/2 (had to put it in), the other windows, linux and solaris. It is a very useful tool and is backwards compatible with REXX. People with a more mainframe background will choose it over perl (which is unix based in its syntax). It's also useful for talking to AS/400s. There are a few of those out there.
that the company that brought the first successful UNIX port to the pc, the ATT B1 doesn't count, to have fallen so low. They should be supporting open source and competing with Red Hat and other commercial suppliers by adding value to the operating system rather than trying to get their revenue from the court.
Maybe they've been turned to the dark side by Emperor Bill.

What faulty logic. I don't care who built the barn, close the damn door.

Yes it is Tuesday. Hey isn't Dave thomas that Wendy's guy?
I think you miss the point. Much of java is implemented using native libraries aka C. Java is really an OO 4gl for C.

I worked for Wal-Mart as a programmer. Scary.

Actually, all jokes aside it looks like a valiant try.

Now if they can just get the plants to walk to the grocery stores.
