explain this to me - we are going to allow ill-willed, self serving remarks from corporations because their protifts are threatened, BUT we are going to expect that people that have public service more on their minds should speak as wisemen, do not cry foul or make emotional comments and so on.
i dont get this shit. why self-serving are allowed to bitch, whereas the good-willed are expected to be little jesuses. being good does not mean mandate being a fool.
Just think, how many of similar 'data losses' have happened in the last 2 years ? and i mean 2 years, not 3, 4, 5 or 6. Discs have been in use since 1995, top level govt. organizations have been using various backup mediums even before then, yet, there is an inexplicable boom of 'record theft/loss' in the last 2 years. in u.s. a few times, in u.k., 2 times.
some sh*t is happening. so many 'coincidence' in a small time period means there are no coincidences involved.
The point I'm getting at is that we know how it's supposed to work, it's how it actually works that can bite us in the ass. I can't prove it one way or the other. Official Navy doctrine could be correct, I hope it is. But I've seen a bad case history of stuff that's supposed to work a certain way not doing so when the shit hits the fan. you know that come wartime, all defenses will be up. you can lose at most 1 task force to such a pants down situation, and that would be in a pearl harbor like event. then all defenses will be up nomatter what.
That's how the Vincennes fucked up and shot down a civvie airliner. i wonder if they really fucked up. or was intentional.
But this was an exercise the Chinese snuck up on. Should not that boat have been detected? exercises generally aim particular stuff and concentrate on them. wartime, you concentrate on survival and take no chances for anything. i dont think so.
The other big question, how many tries do we get in the next war? In WWII, the Japanese had the luck of a few sucker punches but they couldn't knock us out of the war early on and so we were prepared for every other hit and eventually ground them down. Do we have the ability to take another sucker punch in the future? impossible to make any definite prediction. too many technologies around, old and new. some might be ousted, some might work, unexpected stuff may have big effect, and vice versa.
What if the ships knocked out cannot be replaced for a decade? Then we're kinda stuck with accepting the results because we lack the ability to dispute the matter. Some theorists are stating that they believe our next wars will be over so quickly, they'll be fought with the equipment in place and the matter will be beyond dispute before reenforcements can even arrive, let alone ramp up production for new equipment. Of course, theorists also predicted that WWI would be all about maneuver warfare and that it should be over in a few weeks at most. Funny people, military theorists. again, very complicated issue. if it goes to a 'fight to the last man' situation, then for sure more conventional stuff (russian's low tech but easily repairable produceable equipment) will have the advantage. but then again, it may be quickly over due to hi tech stuff as well.

We want cooperation. at&t and the others are already trying to lay waste to telecommunication and internet. We have some alliance to stand against them.

It works well. There are no problems with it. I dont want boards that can be clogged by china, russia, iran, libya or other crappy countries at the helm of internet.
But you, Gene, are f---ing old. you belong to an age long gone. obsolete. relic. antique. either shut up, or die, so you wont hamper progress of mankind.
with a hefty dose of sodium chloride what the hell is that, cool wannabeeness in high school ? wow - they know salt is sodium chloride - they must be geeks !! is that it ?
MULTICS requires dedicated hardware, and there's no operational computer system today that could run this OS i assure you that just as of now there are more than one project for an emulator (even hardware) are on the works in the half-dark recesses of many college/private sector labs.
such systems when the time between the target entering the engagement envelope First of all, a carrier task force never goes into situations that they would be in such a set-up. carrier task force concept is designed to operate from high seas. their interceptors (old f14s) had the capability to send trans-horizon missiles (phoneix, around 200 km range), in order to be able to respond to far threats.
therefore such a fraction of second setup is impossible to occur for a task force unless they go very near the land, and they shouldnt do that anyway. exception is submarines. but in a state of war, it is duly improbable for a sub to be able to get that kind of opportunity against a carrier fleet. because fleet is gonna use active measures at a state of war - its not afraid of being detected then, since it has the upper hand. also marine life restrictions do not apply to state of war.
Pal, what you are describing as missing is being developed since hms Sheffield was sunk with a single exocet missile in falklands in 1982. "screening" a naval vessel from any incoming missiles with a hail of bullets is now a long widespread tech. there are many prominent systems on the use. and easily, carriers are the biggest platforms that carry most of these, and screen themselves quite well. im not even talking about fast, anti missile missile systems.
what you said held true at 1980, and had there been a world war, carriers would go bust. but, by then eastern bloc didnt have that capability, west did, and by the time eastern bloc developed it, west developed point defenses.
when i was in university, they made it obligatory for industrial designers to take courses in manufacturing. because, they were designing so utterly stupid products that, they were impossible to produce with most modern of techniques.
all BA people need to be required to have taken courses in any related field they are going to work in to. for example, a sales and marketing person to work in a software company need to be required to have taken software design courses, at least one, or prove that s/he understands the concepts of software design, by self taught effort.
I cant even find any logic to explain why this can not be patented, and many people did similar things a prior. Not due to complexity, but due to simplicity of the issue.
im no zealot, but, if any misconduct happens to come in the way of firefox from google, no amount of publicity stunt, good deeds can make it up. heed the words of a developer.
if someone is gonna pull a stunt by stealing secrets of a company and use it for his/her new workplace, s/he is definitely gonna take care of it BEFORE s/he delivers his/her notice. what a politicoally correct, spellingly wrong post this has been.
revenues. If it has come to this level, it classifies as not an anti-piracy push, but an assault against the nation itself.
people ARE going to go on with file sharing. cut the grants if you dare. in 20 years you will be trying to teach english to chinese college graduates you imported from china because american colleges are putting out pathetic amounts.

Check that out. a company goes into many wifi bids, wins most of them, and then suddenly decides 'city wide is not worth it'.
thats foul play at its best. proxies, they are.

cross-disciplinary understanding is needed.

you bet you gotta keep them away. else theyll go amok with their sales fantasies.
you gotta hang those guys in every company. then all will be ok. im almost serious.
this is how zealots are created.

it tells the other employees how shitty the company they are working for is.
