[Kudos] Except the ones who designed the reaction wheels, screw those guys.
Aren't you being a bit reactionary?
Seriously, though, I'm glad they got the probe stable again. Thinking about discoveries of all the strange new worlds where no man has gone before gives me visions of green Orion babes. Keep it up!.....the good work, that is.
You are arguing against economies of scale, essentially. While great job security, it strikes me as economically illogical to reinvent everything just for security.
I should have also pointed out that unless you go to one of the "elite" universities, like MIT or Cal-Tech, you will probably end up in rank-and-file IT whether you want to your not. There's only so many slots for cutting-edge research and academic positions. I bet at least half the IT students at the elite universities will also.
Keep in mind that most CS programs tend to be run with a bit of a revulsion to practical things.
They get "credit" for students who go on to academic research or cutting-edge projects. Being good at rank-and-file IT doesn't help the school reputation as much and thus they mostly ignore it.
It's a silly reputation game and too few call them on it. And it jacks up tuition to boot.
Why can't cycle detection be a programmer option choice rather than a language choice? Maybe even with a threshold setting such as only do cycle detection when more than N bytes are consumed by a program or thread.
Note quite. If you inadvertently left a floppy inserted and restarted your PC (or it crashed and restarted), it would try to boot from the floppy WITHOUT ASKING. Virus were spread this way.
That's partly because the pre-harddrive conventions were still in place, and in the old days you often did boot DOS from floppies. Plus if your hard-drive crashed or got too corrupted to boot, you could boot from a DOS disk to run diagnostics.
Nothing wrong with that idea, EXCEPT it should prompt you if the primary boot drive as specified in the bios is not available.
Why is customer account info on a WCMS? The public-facing stuff should be hosted separate from the private/internal stuff (like customer accounts) such that if your public WCMS is breached, the private stuff should be protected. There should be a fire-wall between the public host and the private customer data hosts/servers. You wouldn't put customer details on a public WCMS normally. Your public site is a sales-ish tool.
For biz-to-biz transactions, typically a CRUD-centric tool would be used, not a WCMS.
That is unless they co-hosted too many different concerns on the same server or LAN/WAN, which is a sin at least as big as not patching WCMS.

People with the phone number 867-5309 has similar problems when that song came out.
I misread it as "first inflatable astronaut". That auto-pilot scene from "Airplane" came to mind.

Driver-less Google-like cars are probably the future for those who don't feel comfortable with random strangers.
Because the Web Way is to organically explore alternative ways of doing bullshit.
Just make sure you bring your space helmet with you always.
Financial analysts overall suggest Watson has been ho-hum as an investment. It may be worth more in PR than in actual products.

So trade tabloid bullshit for other tabloid bullshit?
The representative was simply asked about UFO's by a reporter, and gave an answer. That's not the same as trying to make it a campaign issue.

Can you name one that has a good reputation, well road-tested, and works with large orgs?

When cameras that can be disguised as facial moles become mainstream, privacy will be very dead.

Okay. Perhaps we can rework the original claim to be:
"People are stupid to not know by now that MS is like Ferrengis rather than Vulcans."
I meant in this context or case. I thought that was obvious, or are you just joking around?
