I wonder how much processing power will be needed to process such a huge amount of data inorder to extract something meaningful out of this data.
Does Chile have some state of art suprcomputers to achieve this or are they going to send the data to some other country for analysis.
And if they decide to transfer data to some other country how are they going to achieve that.. is data transfer on Internet feasible for 30 TB per night of data ?
long-distance monitoring of corporate computer networks
Very first thing that came into my mind.... What if someone decided to convert some of these into botnets and start renting out. Can we legally do something to them in that scenario.
FTFA If people start watching streaming video like they watch TV -- for hours at a time -- that puts a strain on the Internet that it wasn't designed for
WTF, and charging more money from content providers will change the design of internet.

He calls the Western press "irresponsible" and says that the hoax was designed "to give foreign media a lesson that Chinese affairs are not always the way you think."
What the hell is he talking about???? He himself wrote on his blog "Due to the reasons known to everyone"
What the hell is China known to everyone for?
>I know that this is a problem, as I'm getting email for someone else who's got my email address without the dot in it.
Hmmm.. so you are the one having a dot in email address? That means all your mail is also being delivered to the other person who do not have dot in the address.
I think the post is trying to say what happens in government operated labs. I can tell you about what happens in various national labs, such as LANL, LLNL, LBNL etc, since I work in one of thoes labs. Sometimes it happens that even a genuine person needing root/sudo access do not have that access because of the "undefined" security reasons. One of my colleague have to leave his job just because he was hired as a kernel programmer and was not given sudo/root access... What the hell!! In a research environment, it becomes necessary that you give users full access to atleast their own machines. In national labs, the situation is a lot worse that what you guys think.
Bill Gates was going to give a live demo at his key-note speech for the new Windows Compute Cluster, but he didnt gave that and the buzz is that he crashed it while pacticing the demo and also crashed the cluster on which it was supposed to run. What a start !!
The default gcc 4.0 and binutils package that gets installed with suse-10.0 can not compile linux kernels 2.6.10 and old. However its really easy to remove those and install older versions using yast. I think they should have stuck with gcc-3.x version. Its too early to adopt gcc-4.
Not related to this on any other post, but I have to post this. Is this only me or anybody else also thinks that 80% of slashdot articles are picked-up from news.com.com
Ofcourse the kind of comments one can find here make then worth reading again on slashdot. I actually read news.com and then wait for the article to appear on slashdot.

The difference being that China is a Communist state, while the United States is a Republic.
