This is where I stopped reading. Most knowledgible IT guys know that although the internet is inspired by OSI it follows a slightly different layering architecture which places the application layer in level 5. I would use TCP/UDP transport layer and application layer instead of mentioning OSI.

1) anyone knows what propels bullets in the BSG universe? It seems that it is not ur usual gunpowder. Is it somekind of force field, or a combination of both?
2) Also what is the actual yield of the latest type of photon torpidoes in the TNG universe?
3) Can enterprises shields withstand a 40 megatone nuclear explosion? can they withstand a 40 kiloton one?
Dude, don't be gay... It is just funny. it's a fun word to use. I even have a couple of gay friends, in front of which we use this word with absolutely no offense. SouthPark uses it too.
Indeed I went to far generalizing. I must admit I never examined an ethernet or PPP over ATM system but I was aware of their possible existence since in networking in many occasions useless systems are implemented just because they can.
I never bothered looking into something like that, as I have much more important subjects to research about like say IP over ATM works, which are really great.
I should have rephrased my statement as "No useful system layering would involve ethernet over ATM and most likely this is not what they tought you in Networks 101"
I am among the first to incorporate this solution to my software. This is released under GPL:
void generateEncryptionKey(const unsigned char * key, const unsigned char* iv)
{
int fd;
if ((fd = open ("/dev/radio_telescope_quazar1", O_RDONLY)) == -1)
perror ("open error");
if ((read (fd, (char*)key, KEY_SIZE)) == -1)
perror ("read key error");
if ((read (fd, (char*)iv, IV_SIZE)) == -1)
perror ("read iv error");
}
"Just think of an ethernet frame fractured into ATM frames, put into TCP/IP and and sent over the internet, and then having to be converted back."
Well take it from a networking 4 th year Phd. your description of layering and encapsulation is totally wrong. I don't blame you, I blame the ignorant mod who gave you +1.
TCP/IP segment-> ethernet frame or TCP/IP segment-> ATM -> SONET (perhaps) or TCP/IP->MPLS
there is no need to encapsulate ethernet frame in ATM, since in the case of IP traffic both ATM and Ethernet are layer 2 protocols. you either have a 802.3 LAN or point to point ATM links.
" How would you implement a demand-pull model in a supply chain? What are the key features of that model and for what kinds of products is demand-pull recommended? And for those products, what is the expected benefit of using demand-pull? What is considered the most important variable in implementing a successful demand-pull model? And what usually happens when a demand-pull model is implemented incorrectly? And when that happens, how do you solve the resulting problems?
For what kind of products is a demand-pull model not appropriate? For those products, which model(s) are more appropriate?"
So, all you job requires is answering the above 7 questions, which can be found in any extremely easy to read business book? Have you ever tried to actually work with a team to actually build a complexed > 100 000 lines of code product?
Do you have any education with regards to math, physics, software engineering algorithms? Do you have the slightest idea how much more difficult it is to master this knowledge comparing to the ridiculous business subjects you mentioned?
I know this is what you do best, trying to impress people by spitting bullshit like the above, knowing that nobody knows everything and hoping that they will feel inferior because they don't know what "demand-pull" is. Well my friend, your marketing approach gets F in this case, because us as scientists/engineers know how not to be intimidated by new terms (which we need to learn every 30 minutes continuously) and know that most problems are more tractable than they initially appear.
"The fact is that, as a software engineer, your usefulness to a business is only as good as (1) your ability to work with some difficult-to-understand core technology and/or (2) your ability to document business processes. If you can do both (1) and (2), you're set. If you can do (2), you'll do okay creating glorified databases (maybe). If you can't do either, or if (1) no longer becomes valuable (as happened to a Foxpro programming friend of mine), you're hosed.
I learned this at 28. How you got to 37 not learning this is beyond me."
Nowhere in his post he mentions anything about him not knowing (1) or (2). In fact in order for him to retain his job successfully all these years he must be very capable in both. You could argue that he does not know (3) great communication and social skills. I would argue that just because he tells the truth about the useless business admin people (suits who are the first to be laid off btw when sales go bad...) this does not make him an unpleasant to be around worker.
Is/. moderated by "assholic", full of complexes idiotic managers that know nothing else but act smart asses to hide their C- in undergraduate CS classes? For god sakes people don't label flaimbaiter someone who said
something that is absolutely true in IT. Not only in IT, but in high tech industry and in academia.
As long as a geek does not smell and as long as he acts confident about his job, the pony-tail should not harm him in an engineering-science environment. It actually helps him establish his geek/hard worker image.
So to all of you, ignorants who think this guy is a flaimbait: wake up we are engineers/scientists, not real estate or marketeers. If you want to dress up good (and attract the crowd and the ladies) go do another job.
"The real problem with this mentality is that these are warships"
And precisely because they are worships, it is not a great idea to pack 2000 souls on a primary
target. Yes, these war machines have every protection possible but they don't cease to be targets.
Naval battle history has shown that once a ship is badly hit the majority of the crew goes down with it.
Also, once major damage is inflicted on the ship repair operations are usually non-effective and disaster
follows soon. Nowadays with the improved surface-to-surface missiles and torpedoes which cary more explosive load,
(not to mention tactical nuclear weapons) this is even more true. In other words once your anti-missile, anti-aircraft protection systems are gone your ship is out of luck. Having 1200 more people on board will not repair the ship's
blown to pieces SAAM, it will simply dress more mothers in black.
Besides, the deployed automations most likely include maintenance and failure recovery systems.
"USS Enterprise [wikipedia.org] was commissioned in 1960 and is scheduled for decommissioning in 2013. So far its been in service almost 46 years. I see no reason why these ships won't last for 50 years. Even submarines last 30 years (and some SSBNs are under consideration to be extended to 50 years)."
Last time I checked with him he was resting by his fishless pond. Anyway, just check
the SG Command directory, he has been affiliated with them for quite some time.

Why do I have a feeling that the first company to not be able to adopt the new ultra-high-speed
