So Kroger's customer list is stolen from Epsilon! I wonder what other companies are using Epsilon to manage their customer list. So we need to identify who is managing the client list of Epsilon. If that site is known to be hackable.. hee... hee...:-)
First principle in any war is "know thy enemy". One must understand the terminology they use and try to understand their world view. That does not mean we agree with them. Often times most effective counterattacks would come from talking their language and their imagery.
One of my pet peeves, for example. Saudi Arabia does not permit women to drive. Saudi Arabian government has a deficit and it has external debt. Yes it is true. It is so incomprehensible. The oil wealth of Saudi Arabia does not belong to the people of Saudi Arabia. It is considered to be personal wealth of King Saud, and his descendants, about 5000 sheiks and their families. All the rest get some kind of government dole, but pittance compared to what the sheiks are raking in. They have imported some 500,000 drivers from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Phillipines (that is in addition to 1.5 million domestic servants).
You can talk till you are hoarse about why women should be allowed to drive their cars, based on principles of equality, or economic implications. You will not make any progress. You cant reach them. They would shut you out.
But, if you knew that Mohammad has ordered all Muslim women to be able to ride horses and camels, you could argue that not allowing women to drive cars contradicts the Hadith, so it is un Islamic. Not that you are going to win. They will come back some argument or another. But they won't be able to shut you out. You will enable a few women there to make similar argument, and who knows, ten years from now, they might relax it a little bit and allow women to drive their sick children to hospitals.
If we were really smart we would all agree that the encryption method used by Rajib was super sophisticated and it was due some lucky break and a happenstance it was broken. Publicly proving their cryptography is a joke and thus humiliating them would make the switch to PGP or something. It takes a wise man to let his enemies underestimate his mental powers.
Infidels are the non believers, usually restricted to the Jews and Christians because they are the people of the Book, but they just don't accept Mohammad. Kaffirs are more like pagans, heathens, idolators. Then there are najis, the dirty. Then there are apostates. The ranking is
muslim > infidels > kaffirs > najis > apostates.
Since very few people originate most tweets with high following, corporations and advertisers would woo them. They will set up their paid tweeters backed up by huge number of paid assistants. The followers will realize the conflict of interest and calibrate their truthiness of tweeters. Eventually it will reduce to a second rung of media, like bloggers, less scrutinized, highly fragmented.
I did not know that. Thanks for the information. Times like these, I wish I could retract my original posting. Some kind soul, please mod my OP down. Thanks.
The GPS satellites use these time signals from these atomic clocks to sych. Your little wrist watch could be off by 10 seconds and you would not even notice. The GPS satellites need to by synched with each other correct to ten billionth of a second. GPS receivers triangulate using the phase difference between the signals transmitted by the satellites. If any one satellite is off by 1.0e-08 sec, the distance calculation will be off by 10 feet.
Kodak, Microsoft, IBM, Motorola and about 25 more companies claim they have already patented it. When pressed they admitted they have pretty much patented everything that could ever be done on a computer.
Radiation levels inside reactor two were recently gauged at 1,000 millisieverts per hour — a level so high that workers could only remain in the area for 15 minutes under current exposure guideline."
So the right thing to do would be to change the current exposure guideline. Right?
I think that boy is named Asok. Before he did the course on Directed Reincarnation and Advanced Shape shifting. But you never know, he also seemed to have done the minor in False Humility.
... until you have your first serious encounter with "It Works On My Machine.'...
This problem is common to both Windows and Mac. But the difference is, in Mac, people will force you fix your code and make it work. In Windows you had been just shrugging and say, "It works in my windows machine, must be something wrong with your non standard system". All that bad karma has caught up to you and now you are bellyaching about having to actually fix your code.
Man up and fix your code buddy. In Mac/Linux world we don't coddle lazy coders much.
Doesn't Sorbanes-Oxley Act already prescribe how much and how long companies should keep electronic records? That is what they told me when our company implemented a bone-headed password change process.
I have found my bike on the ground twice due to some stupid car trying to take the 3/4 of the spot available.
If you have paid full car price for a car size spot, park it transverse or diagonally in the spot, so that not even total morons would think of squeezing in into the remaining space. You could also park it in such a way, there is no doubt another car can't squeeze in, but you could leave enough space for another scooter to squeeze in and use the remaining space for free!
Some of the points he is making seems to be valid. But that would be valid for any CASE tool (Computer Aided Software Engineering, remember that term from circa 1990s?). Yes, there are software development environment that allows you to create mickey mouse applications with lots of bells and whistles without fully understanding the nitty gritty. But it does not make all developers using such a platform idiots.
His rant about backslashes in path names strikes a cord with me. The 8.3 file name size restriction too. It looked like they introduced blanks in the path names specifically to break my cygwin scripts. But these are minor gripes, and as such would not impact my hiring decisions.
This is what I call the lawyer talk. I don't want a run around. I am not checking for size() == 0. I need to know the number of elements in the list. The standards allow splice() to be O(N). Most people expect size() to be O(1) that is how they interpret the standards. Making splice() O(N) to give size() in O(1) is the reasonable and user friendly thing to do. Hiding behind opaque english, using lawyer talk and blaming the user is antagonizing the user.
Will they resolve the question of std::list::size() function's speed? It is constant O(1) in Visual C++ implementation. In gcc people are arguing over fine distinctions between "shall" and "will" or something equally esoteric. As it stands in Linux it is Order(N). I am not kidding. My code was scaling fine in Visual C++ going form 10 elements to 10 million elements in a nice predictable N*Log(N) curve. It was frustrating to debug the scaling loss in Linux and to finally realize, the root cause of the trouble was the break conditional evaluation in the for loop. And everyone is refusing to fix the damn thing for six years. We were paying maintenance to RedHat. And they were also giving us the lawyer talk instead a fix.
When the first english dictionary was compiled by Samuel Johnson a London high society lady is said to have thanked him, "Thank you Dr Johnson, for leaving out certain words". Dr Johnson apparently replied, " I'm shocked, m'lady. You were looking for them?"

Now publish all the solutions and ask the crowd to winnow the wheat from the chaff too. Jeez! Guys, haven't you heard of recursion at all?

Then in the year 2016, this forecaster will return to Earth from whatever planet he is in, once what he is smoking wears off.
Is there a way to do something like impeachment or something to such a biased judge?
When you can't turn the clock back, you turn a new page. Oh, wait. they already tried Page. Oops.

We will just call the fuel gasoline and be done with it.

First off, let us get the basic definitions right. Their leakers are patriots. Our leakers are traitors.
