As far as I can see, this would have some benefit against phishing e-mails provided mail from domains with no SPF entry was not regarded as spam/rejected. Then the choice of protection is left to the owner of the domain the e-mail comes from. yourbank.com can have one so they're e-mails can be identified as genuine. yourmailforwardingservice.com will not have one as it's unuseable. A little safe victory without losing any e-mail.
Probably covered in the original discussions, but I feel it's not even a good name.
BitTorrent gives images in my mind of holding a cup in a raging, continuous torrent of data which fills up and then overflows to people further down. Whereas Avalanche gives me images of a brief, violent wall of unmanageable stuff, which squashes you then stops.

"I've recently figured out why the South East is sticking to the ancient third rail system in use, despite the low maximum speed possible using it."
I can't remember the source, but I read that the low maximum speed is due to adjacent lines being too close. If the trains went even as fast as high speed British trains on those tracks, regardless of power supply, the force of the air displacement on trains passing each other would be too great. Fixing this would obviously be a much bigger job than changing the power system (re-laying at least half the tracks, widening the space available to the railway etc.)
Looking at the screen shot, it looks like the system will ask the user (or is it programmer?) questions about what they are defining if the definition is incomplete.
This seems to me to be the most useful aspect of this tool, if it is viewed simply as a tool to help define requirements rather than a complete software development solution.
E7even gave me a free Modem router and there was no option for a non-NATed USB one as far as I remember. It's got a USB port, but that yields a similarly NATed connection. Granted, it is a 'safecom' (basically unbranded!) one but I find it only seems to fail about once a month or so.
It's quite a responsible move by them IMHO whether it was intended or not. It could also benefit them in terms of not getting lots of external abuse complaints to deal with, no?
Just read above about headings being changed by editors. So, armed with this doubt about who supplies me with my slashdot fix, I would now say "Someone who had something to do with the article appearing on my computer screen did have the wrong idead". This allows for it to be the submitter, the editor, or a secret IE module which alters slashdot headings to soil its otherwise spic and span reputation.
True. However the original bbc article contained no such ambiguity and the slashdot article title is unambiguously wrong. So the person writing the article did have the wrong idea.
Or maybe, just maybe, the article title means "Keylogging Used To Catch Bank Crackers": as in it used to, but it doesn't any more.
TV licencing told me on the phone a few years ago that I could use my TV to watch videos without a licence. They added a comment to that effect in their database. So long as you de-tune from all the broadcast channels and unplug the aerial, you're fine. Straight from the horses mouth.
Because a processor with 64 bits of memory address bits can access more memory than one with only 32?
The AMD 64 actually has 48-bit virtual addresses and 40-bit physical ones. Check it here. 64-bit refers to the size of the registers/data paths. Whilst it is unlikely you will often operate on data which needs to be 64-bits (except for double precision FP for accurate maths applications) it does for instance allow for good use of SIMD instructions (4 16-bit values packed into one register and operated on at the same time for instance). Other tricks are possible too. The upshot is it will speed things up but generally only if programs/compilers are written with exploiting the architecture in mind.
I don't think I was alone in finding that the free release of GTA 1 was unplayable thanks to the frame limiter being a wee bit broken. With the limiter on it stuttered a load and with it off you seemed to be on some kind of stimulant (or depressant depending on whether you think you are the character or observing him. Pretty tall order to think you are the character in GTA 1 though.)
A caveat with this book is that, despite being warned, you will find it incredibly annoying to be left with a pile of DNA loose ends knowing they will never be tied up.

Sir, I second your declaration of 'Shenanigans'.

Where are you getting this information from?
TV licencing told me on the phone a few years ago that I could use my TV to watch videos without a licence. They added a comment to that effect in their database. So long as you de-tune from all the broadcast channels and unplug the aerial, you're fine. Straight from the horses mouth.
This reminds me of the explanation for this given by a driver over the train's PA system at Victoria.
"There will be a slight delay in the doors opening as the satellite tracking us can't see through the roof of the station".
Indeed - we were explicitly banned from using any VoIP on our halls network.
... Intel announce their brand spanking new 386 processor.
Why not simply clone their ultimate goal - the profits - and spare us the rest of the process.
