I agree. I also agree with the first comment above about the total lack of this guy being able to write a comprehensable sentence in his article.
Somebody from the BBC IT department last year wrote back to me about a screw up they had on one of their site pages regarding a radio program that wasnt replaying properly. He thanked me, and gave a long convuluted hack to replay the show. It reminded me of this friend years ago that was explaining to somebody about how to get a German Umlat typed. He had this big involved way of going through the edit menu etc, when all you have to do, as I remember, is press alt + some numbers.
Amazingly the BBC never fixed that page / error that I wrote them about
Two things forget to mention One is thank you. The other is that I could be completely wrong lol about the search algorithm having anything to do with xss.
Ok I assume these search engines are to be used in place of the more popular search engines during bug month.
Do all of these search engines have their own developed algorithms and other programming procedures for search? Or are they using Google's or some other popular search engine's algorithm for their search. As am sure you know, many search engines use a more popular se's alg. Think Yahoo was using Google's at one time.
If all of these se's have their own independent algorithms, they will very useful in bug month because of course the targets will be those with some percentage mass. But they wont be as good as Google which is so popular because it is still the best.
I would agree. It would also help if techs were paid a decent wage, IT decisions were made by people who knew something about IT, and connected with this, more people realized that Microsoft is a desktop os and not a net os. Microsoft sucks as a desktop os too lol, but regardless, that is what it was originally designed for and the Microsoft culture has never gone beyond that in evolving.
Many pages could be written about how everything possable in this country has been done to dicourage the talant and skill that is already here from developing first rate tech products.
It is disgusting. Your word suck is too kind.
Glad you recieved a score of 4 for insightful, though maybe you should have gotten a 5.
But really, my own feeling is does it matter anymore. Most ppl out there in the US are functionally illiterate, or brian myopic, and usually both. That type usually responds to the emotional, personal communication and can be swayed by a smile and persona. As for anything recondite, lol, whether you write it down or say it, they will never get it. Dont know if this has more to do with women than men, as the post mentioned / implied, but my own un pc guess is yes.
Possably this may also be connected indirectly with why most organizations, etc, seem to be getting more dysfunctional. A lack of being able to communicate aka not much intelligence.
My guess is this is a female. Regardless, I think you look pretty poor in skirts.
Both your comments were arrogant. If you are too dense to realize that, well, that's your problem. Thankfully not mine.
And yes, you would be also doing me a favor with no more replys. Enjoy your bogus government handouts. I already know your ability if you are "servicing" "clients" like that. They usually base their choice on many factors, none of which is ability. Oh and as for the ad hominum -sic- you started that, not me.
Once again sweetie- Have a nice day:)
Oh well gee thanks wise guy. My reply was to the original comment, not your post which I never read.
Btw fyi, everything else you said is also old news, like people surfing at work. Maybe if your health center "client" bothered to pay more then the minimum wage, these poor disadvantaged people could afford computers. Btw also, you realize of course being a "consultant" that there are tyranical ways to prevent bored employees from surfing. They are called keyloggers, filters, etc., perhaps - heaven forbid- even non internet access. Now go back to your micro world in Microsoft where you obviously dwell lol.
More to the point I wonder if the majority of those people are over 50 years old, who dont have internet access.
Too bad the article and / or survey didnt break down the nonusers by age.
And of course we know the law is written in the best interest of it's citizens. Besides blaming it on the Feds absolves Google of any responsibility for treating it's employees decently.
Tell me something, Mr. Lawyer, if Google has longer lunchbreaks and gives these "temps" better working conditions then mandated by the "generous" Fed laws, are they then violating the law? Or could it be that some people at google just dont care about this classification of workers, and dont really consider them human beings?
Most of these employers, like Microsoft, have put themselves in a position where no competent person uless they come from some starving third world country would want to work for them. Right Miguel- a rl person at MS that thinks it's wonderful and can not write a simple declarative English sentence and who tried to hype some of Microsoft's junk by stealth on Slashdot one time.
I was going to make a comment, but it would not have been as detailed and well thought as your post.
Thank you .
I would just add that there actually is plenty of talent out there and always has been. Of course these people are over 30, and in the Microsoft mentality that makes them not qualified. Another point is that when there is a slump in tech, all the qualified graduates are left wo jobs and basically are never absorbed by these firms.
Real life example. Dot com boom late ninties I knew this guy who had graduated on a scolarship from UCLA in Elec Engineering. Problem was he graduated in the early ninites when no one was hiring. He finally wound up the head of data processing for the County of LA and that is his career. When I have joked with him in late ninites about getting a dot com job, he replied quite seriously that they would consider him too old in his late twenties. That was at a time when they were grabbing any new grad off the street even if he had a philosophy degree from some fifth rate college.
The real problem is the management and leadership of these organizations. And Gates of Microsoft is one of them. Of course his solution is just to import foreign help, because they can work for Microsoft at what is the equivalent of less then minimum wage. Yeah I know they get paid 80+k a year. Devide that by 100 hours a week and see what you get. Of course my guess is that Gates being around Ballmour and Clinton all the time assumes Americans are dummies.
I know differently. From what you wrote, I think you do too.
To Stalus or anyone else on Slashdot.
I have a couple of questions that I would deeply appreciate if they could be answered.
Ok this latest hack on gmail. Is it only your contact list that they recieve. Is nothing else hacked into like your inbox, messeges sent, etc? If so, I will be lmaf. Many of my contacts are programmers, and they will not take this spam hack lying down. If anyone can track these bozos they will, and they know how to retaliate lol.
Second, an earlier story had about 60 gmail account files completely deleted. Is this part of the same hack or problem? Or is it a seperate incident and as Google claimed a glitch that has been fixed?
Perhaps when they corrected the "glitch" they created a "issue", like a vulnerability that caused this contact hack?
Any enlightnment would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Go to the White House, talk to Ricahard Perle, visit Steve Ballmer -sic, listen to Sara Cox on the BBC, see the latest Julie Roberts movie, move to Spokane WA, etc..
Generically-- Argue with a fool which sometimes can be most people so never argue at all, expect something for nothing, worry about anything for more than 10 minutes.
"In search of wisdom and smartness...."
In politics, always remember no one will do anything unless there's something in it for them -and most of life is politics, never bet more than you can afford to lose- the stock and financial markets, a poker game, etc., be content no matter what the circumstances - harder done than said sometimes, listen to advice very selectively and only to those who might really be informed.
Lots more suggestions, but if you follow these you shouldnt lose too much money, or waste that much time.
That's funny that SciAm lists certain discoveries in Nanotech in it's list. May years ago they had a feature story about how Nanotech would never work because of the physics involved, among other things. Sounded very logical. Now they are praising it's discoveries lol.
You are asking Slashdot which job to choose???? Most of of Slashdot is either misfit teens, overaged geeks living in their parents basement, or sysops that eat potatoe chips / drink coke / and tell everyone how busy they are all day lol.
Me, I would take the Perl job. Assume they dont want you to write entire programs in Perl. If they do, you might give these guys an IQ check. Might as well have fun whatever you're doing, even if it's work. Course my gf always told me I was nuts.
Another thing to consider is why they play Half-Life? Why not WOW or COH / COV. Gee that's what some late nite programmers, who sleep in their office, play.
"A notable exception is buckets of cash" Well even there you have to come from the upper middle class, which is millionaire wannabes that never made it.
Warren Buffett? His father was a Congressman. Dont tell me Mr Buffett didnt have some advantages the rest of us dont. Bill Gates? His family was and is quite well off. After all Bill is a Harvard dropout. How many of us have had that oppertunity.
In the 1955 movie "The Barefoot Contessa" there is an argument between 2 billionaires in today's money, named Kirk Edwards aka Howard Hughes and Gravona aka maybe Trajuillo.
Kirk- At least I put my money to work. Gravono- Oh come now Mr. Kirk Edwards. To make $5000 into $10000, that is work. To make $100 mil into $200 mil is...inevitable.
I dont think Nick ever recovered from his wannabe investment in Wired. Gee didnt Lou and that "well known internet humerist" Lore what-ever-his-name-is want to make a pitch for their onetime bud?
Ok I didnt see anybody post this. But did it ever occur to you guys and girls that the lack of tes in American men, may be due to the lack of interest in American women.
And why would American men lack interest in American women? Well, maybe because they have become too much trouble with today's social norms, attitudes, laws, etc.. Please dont flame me. I get along with American women. But my contact with them is superficial. Well, at least superficial practically all of the time.
You know I really cant think of anything. I can think of a lot of things he's done worse.
Wait, seriously, there was one thing, and even some of the European press agreed with him. His administration did take on Iran, China, etc., about the issue of freedom of the internet. Sounds funny, since his administration sort of partly created the confrontation with their obsession about net porn and terrorists. But the beginning of the problem, as I interpet it based on what I read, was created by that genius Billy Clinton.
Yeah I sleep real soundly knowing that "team", Homeland Security, and Jack Bauer of 24 are protecting me.
Below is something I previously wrote in another context.
Hey just thought of a new team up. Le Femme Nikkita aka peta wilson and jack bauer.
I can see it now. It can be a musical derived from Annie Get Your Gun. Jack and Nikkita are together in a high speed car chase.
niki- You're driving like a wous. Let me take the wheel
Jack- Forget it. Women drivers are a menace
niki- You ran over 2 people in the last minute, and you're calling me a menace???
jack- Son of a bitch. That last guy I hit got blood on the windshield. And I said women, le feme, not you. You're probably the only real man left in LA.
nikii- You're not making sense Jack. First you bloody imply I am a woman, then you-
jack- Son of a bitch. Since when did I ever make sense. Just shut up . Son of a bitch. Anything you can do, I can do better
nikkii- No you cant
jack- Yes i can
nikkii- No you cant no you cant no you cant no you cant -
jack- Son of a bitch
nikki- No you cant. And dont raise your hand in a threatning gesture to me Jack bauer. Or I'll have a restraining order on you faster than you can say -
Jack- Son of a bitch. I was scratching myself
nikki- You were scratching yourself in the wrong place Jack Here let me do it for you.
jack- Ah Ah Son of a bitch. Hey Nikki babe you wanna drive Whatever you want-
nikki- Jack just shut up and drive. Keep both hands on the wheel. Son of bitch. BLOODY, BLOODY HELL. Now he's got me saying it.
Your ideas about anonymous posting make a lot of sense, even for other sites.
I would think that in areas of the world that are severly repressed, anonymous comments would offer protection, even for some articles on wikipedia. But seriously, if "they" want to get you, they can trace it. Much more thorough protections are needed like tor, a proxy server, etc.. And if you want to remain an anonymous, you can set up a bogus account and call yourself, lol, Mr / Ms Anonyomous. From what I have read about China, it would probably take a lot more effort than this. But hey it still can, and I think is, done.
Yeah I know that sounds like a lot of trouble. But, hey, if you really are afraid of some kind of retaliation for speaking freely, that's what you have to do. Freedom takes effort.
Yeah I think they make the grade. I am sure there are inaccuracies, but even prestigous publications have inaccuracies too. The tip off to me about an article is how many references it has. Many times these are also sources.
I have gotten flamed a lot online for sticking up for Wikipedia. But I think it is great.
"I dont think people have any idea what they are in for."
Yes, I do. As for most people, no they dont. A whole book could be written on that.
"Why are people so surreal?"
Because they dont want to face reality. If they did, they would go stark raving mad. Heck, sometimes when I look at reality, it throws me in depression, and I am prob better positioned then most of these people. The really sad thing is that there are a lot of smart, intelligent individuals who cant do anything to protect themselves and know it. Who can blame them for excaping reality. You only wonder many times that they did not and are not doing worse.
Dont know if similar post made- though I would think so - but I checked Scandoo out using some search words, one of which was the notorious screensaver word. I have a Firefox browser and was using a Google search.
Funny thing on the results. There were no warning signs next to the paid advertisment placements of Google ads. I use a similar service called Siteadvisor on my FF browser. For the word Screensaver, there are some red warnings for the Google ads, and on Scandoo none.
Though I havent read the comments to this post, nor the Scandoos info / help section, I think it is very misleading to have no warnings on the Google ads where there should be a warning. I think many might assume because they are Google ads, Google has checked out these ads. -Know I would- Wnen in fact, I dont think Google does any such thing.
If I am misinformed, or there is something I dont realize, please let me know. But imho, I think Siteadvisor would be a much safer choice. Perhaps one could use both Scandoo and Siteadvisor to check out a site. Siteadvisor has an untested tag for a number of new sites. Maybe Scandoo has a rating. Otherwise I dont see the advantage in using this over Siteadvisor.
