DO run all user-sourced input through "mysql_escape_string" or your DBMS' equivalent. Most DAO implementations already do this.
...and make sure to put user input in quotes (or back quotes) in the final query as even an escaped string can cause problems:
Basic query: "SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE x = ?"
Input: "1 OR 1=1"
Final: "SELECT * FROM tbl WHERE x = 1 OR 1 = 1"
What they need to do is add appropriate padding so the software just detects the people saying "Skype Skype Skype!" "Skype Skype?" "Skype Skype Skype Skype Skype!"
The only central servers are for authentication. All the communication traffic is peer-to-peer, though sometimes it will go through a third peer to overcome networking issues.
There are also supernodes (sometimes skype owned) where many users connect to send and retrieve connection data (who's on, search, etc). A simple network traffic analyzer can confirm much of this.
Maybe you're unfamiliar on how libraries are used these days.
With the Internet, most research can be done online, with just occasional references to physical books. When that happens, it means you have to go wander the library and search through the shelves for the book. With the book found, you can head back to where you started (study/research group, computer, wherever) and continue.
This system cuts down the wandering in the library, the searching the shelves for the book, and possibly losing your spot while you're gone. Find a reference to a book? A few clicks and it'll be across the room in a few minutes. Plus there's the added benefit of more workspace, less wasted on shelves of books.
Probably because electricity is dangerous and if you know how to safely tap in, then you can find a better job than growing drugs. Or the ones that do it don't get caught and published in the news.
You could extend it to piracy, but it wouldn't be in the same way. With the second hand game, the cost is split, but also the time playing it. There won't be people playing it at the same time. Same way as if I bought a car with someone we could split the cost, but not drive it at the same time.
There's also no splitting of anything with piracy. One person is spending the money, the others are not contributing anything, No money is going to the developers, not even down a chain of purchases.
Another thing it doesn't take into account it that the used copy was once a paid copy. Essentially the cost of buying the game is just being split among more people, freeing more money to buy other titles.
Now for a company like Lionhead that doesn't really have any other titles, this doesn't help them directly, but for the industry as a whole it means more people are able to buy/play more games.
With piracy, there is no money (for this title) going back to the developers because duplicates are created for no money.
There's a big difference between whether you're allowed to do something and whether it's bad for you. The suggestion in the article would be the latter.
If Obama had his way, I'm sure Gitmo would be shut down by now, but thanks to Congress passing legislation barring the transfer of the inmates to US soil, there's not much he can do.
Now if he'd shutdown Gitmo and setup a new prison camp on the other side of the island - that'd by hypocrisy. Trying to do something, but having other people prevent you is not.
Except I cannot limit the search by class year, so I get hundreds, if not thousands of people from the past 20 years since I graduated. When all they need to do is add a "Class of XXXX" filter. How simple it would be.
So easy that it was one of the original features the first year of existence. Since opening up, they've slowly removed a lot of the features specific to schools and anything that could be considered an app.
Digital is slowly creeping in, but in general film is a cheap high resolution solution.
Cameras gave up film because digital is cheaper and more convenient - and the resolution isn't as necessary since the photos aren't being stretched to the size of a building.
Projectors are expensive, so a theater can keep the same machine for 40 years. After the initial cost of upgrading to new equipment, digital only cuts down on shipping a bit (saves a couple hundred per film) and the guy projecting it presses play instead of threading up a projector every couple hours - all for no gain in picture quality until recently.
You might have more luck with software that has a training phase before doing recognition. I've had great success with Germans, Chinese and Israelis speaking English through extra training.
As for the language, I'm not sure about consumer software, but phone systems (and probably Google Voice...details are slim on it) will often run recognizers for several languages and then go with the recognition with the highest confidence.
- Passengers would need to be trained in their use
- Jets are usually moving too fast to parachute out of
- If they're not moving too fast, they're probably going to crash before they get the door open.
- Pilots tend to want to land the plane rather than have everyone bail out.
Basically there aren't many plausible situations where it would help. If the pilot can crash land, people are more likely to survive than if they all jump out.

That just shows that you don't care about any UI improvements, you're just stuck with what you know. Without even having tried a different interface, you've already rejected it for something you're familiar with.
While WEP isn't all that useful security against your typical hacker/war driver, it will keep out your neighbor who just brought home a new laptop from bestbuy or the guy walking by with his iPhone.
It also sends a message that this connection is not open for the public.
It's similar to having a door on your store that everyone knows can just be opened by slipping a credit card in the lock to open it. Sure you can lock the dead bolt, but just this will keep out people while you shut down the cash register.
In a way. The US is a big country so it takes a while to change things. All the signs would need changing, all the measurements in laws, all the schools, and much of the culture. For a smaller country it's more practical to change those all over in a short period, but for a larger country like the US it would be very expensive and take a long time. Such a move wouldn't be politically popular (people don't like change).
Even the UK still hasn't converted over to kilometers yet, and it's much smaller.

Yeah, without it, all those bored trolls would leak out onto the rest of the Internet.
Speech Recognition deals with accents just fine - as long as it's been trained on that accent.

If Skype can't connect directly p2p (both users are NATed) it uses a third peer on the network that both can connect to - not really a server.
What they need to do is add appropriate padding so the software just detects the people saying "Skype Skype Skype!" "Skype Skype?" "Skype Skype Skype Skype Skype!"
The only central servers are for authentication. All the communication traffic is peer-to-peer, though sometimes it will go through a third peer to overcome networking issues.

There isn't a whole lot of cloud cover in the area and the molten salt will keep going if there are patches going over.
I'm all for building more nuclear plants, but I don't think we should be pushing a single source of power, no matter what type.

To be fair, the default Win95 install didn't include TCP/IP making it much harder to take over a PC

By that logic I should be fine snorting asbestos and it's safe to ignore those flood warnings about the Mississippi.
Just because you have a phrase and can translate it into Latin does not make it valid - no matter how much you want to legalize pot.

Opera Unite does that now - I was surprised how easy it was to setup a webserver visible to everyone
No, it's the second version of the Wii

Or they could use lowercase roman numerals and call it the Wiiii
I'd disagree there.
