Yah, good luck with that. Unless the index already exists to do nearly exactly what you want, queries against multi terabyte production oracle tables have this bad tenancy of never completing, if you are lucky, and (effectively, from the perspective of the app running on top of it) taking down the database if you are not so lucky.
If the index doesn't exist, good luck adding in less than a week or two.
For the most part, novel trend and behavior information is trivial to instrument in the service layer as a side effect of the apps normal operation, at which point you record it in your query logs and build reports based on the logs.
Part of the problem is that it is high profile but low facts. The actual party responsible for the harassment and setting up the impersonation in the first place was granted immunity...
Jeopardy has attached, the events have been tried, they can not be retried for this defendant under am alternate theory of the crime (though, to my knowledge, you can be tried for one site events under multiple theories in the same trial), all such theories and charges should have been advanced in the trial.
In the cited music case, the avoided transaction was on the order of $1 to $5 per song transferred to a 3rd party. The actor was an individual, and evidence that the actor was actually doing it is surprisingly thin.
In the cited software case, the avoided transaction is distribution of the modified source code* and proper credit. The actor was a corporation, and evidence that they actually did the act, and are still doing it, via a work for hire arrangement and subsequent publication is ironclad.
To the extent either party is unable, for whatever reason, to come into compliance/equivalence with the avoided transaction, statutory damages then seem reasonable.
In the music case, purchasing and destroying one instance per instance transferred would be sufficient.
In the software case, releasing modification made to the software is a minimum, but to the extent that source code not actually owned/produced by the actor or on behalf of the actor would need to be released for compliance, compliance is not possible, and thus, statutory damages should come in to play.
Additionally, in the music instance, the action was not taken for economic gain, in the software instance, it was taken for clear and actualized economic gain.
The meta problem is that they are letting Atari get away with it, without actually complying with the GPL due to interference of a third party. Any code produced by Mistic either as a modification to or linked with the ScummVM should have been released to satisfy the interests of those who have already purchased the software in question. I understand that the tool chain and libraries provided by Nintendo aren't theirs to release, and that failing would still lead to an ongoing GPL violation, necessitating the cessation of sales/distribution of the software, but to the extent the source code is/was owned by Sony/Mistic, incorporates a GPLed work and is distributed, it should have been released.
Can you give citations for dessert dwellers using brine solutions and vacuum chambers to pull water out of the air in the absence of any material with a temperature below the due point? I won't hold you to the 'thousands of years' part. Last I checked, dessert dwellers didn't do so well with salt water until recently, and then, only industrial scale desalinization projects. If they were using this method, it seems like they should have hit on desalinization a very long time ago.
Or did you not RTFA and thus think it was the trivial survival technique using condensation and gravity during night time hours?
Performance optimization. You can get much write rates if you can reorder the writes to be sequential on disk, starting with whichever one the disk head can get to first.
.04? Putting a few bits of information together (measured at 4 times the legal limit in a state with a limit of.08), that seems to be within the noise bounds for actually having a BAC of 0 (even disregarding catastrophic error), having had nothing to drink.
If you look at the picture, the rent a cops were armed. If you read his description, they also threatened him with violence.
IANAL, and am still going through the RCW on this, but I think this is a case of Felony False Imprisonment and intend to contact DA Hynes about this abuse of a fellow citizen.
I don't see anything stopping them from using file system information. In your file system, this sort of thing stands out like a sore thumb as recording activity inconsistent with you having actually used the drive.
I could be wrong, but I don't think Finland, Sweeden, Denmark and Norway have nationalized all their industries, so, they aren't socialist in the sense that GP was using the term.
You are taking things out of context. The specific contexts you are ignoring right now are:

Stop being an idiot and learn the nuances of what you are talking about. Maybe then you can productively attack the topic without sounding like an idiot.
The rename IS atomic, that is guaranteed. What isn't guaranteed is any other transaction that you haven't asked for a guarantee on. In a sane world we would have file system transactions so you could make a collection of filesystem operations atomic without requiring that they happen at any particular time.
The application code in question has a bug, even if the filesystem was a bit more gentle in letting you know that, the application would STILL have a bug. It's doing a BAD thing.
In the current environment, I haven't seen anyone get hired that didn't have a degree and a strong internship or 4+ years of visible, strong experience.
If you are utterly and completely amazing (strongly contraindicated by how you describe your relevant skills), join and make strong contributions to an industry relevant open source project. At the same time, pick up at least two more languages (one of them should probably be perl, python or ruby) and be able to demonstrate fluency, good style and a strong understanding of the fundamentals of computer science. Thats the four month plan, it is likely impossible, but from what you describe you have an immense amount of catching up to do with regards to demonstration of abilities. If you don't actually have the abilities, then the answer is no, you almost certainly can't make it in four months no matter what you do.
And the point is that in the presence of write reordering and the absence of fsync, there is no guarantee, express or implied, about the state of the tmp file's contents before you clobber the old file by renaming the new file.
Rename doesn't say ANYTHING about the status of writes to a file's contents. The two are entirely uncoupled and any expectation to the contrary was anecdotal and wrong.
Really? I managed 2 years from a single years entry level (SDE) employment. As things stand after another ~5 years of employment, I could probably stretch things out to 10-15 years (barring hyper inflation) without dipping into unemployment insurance or the 401k.

This was/is in Seattle, so it should be possible in most places. We aren't exactly known for cheap housing.
That statement is counter to my experience. At least when I was in college, the women in CS were universally there because it was deeply interesting to them. A significant proportion of the men were explicitly there because CS paid well, with neither aptitude nor interest in the actual subject.
Purely anecdotal of course, and it's possible, even if it was representative, that things have changed. The gender ratio, AFAICR, after the weeder was ~10:1 (before the weeder it was closer to 20:1).
There hasn't been an increase in school violence, just an increase in the number of schools and an increase in the reporting of the violence that has occurred.

Range voting is limited by Arrow's impossibility theorem in that it fails the Condorcet criterion.

Just because they are embedded in PDFs doesn't make them stop being music files, neither does it magically turn them into PDFs.

At least in my ussage, a bug is a persistent, reproducible logic error. A glitch is a one off event/corruption/operator error.
A glitch can normally be attributed to a lack of process/design that would have prevented/detected the glitch, but it's not actually an error.

No, this is actually a good think, it now must be ok for you to not cooperate by pleading the 5th.
