I've been in IT 20 + years still don't get the whole cult of personality around Jobs. Its been said countless times but Apple has made their money off salve labor. Yet it seems to be celebrated I don't know but fuck you all. Carly fuck her to I worked at HP as she ran that country into the ground. What does all this mean - YOUR ALL SHEEPLE eating the same shit from 1980 - piece out loser
The problem is everyone sees the word classified and assumes it must be important, that is not always the case. Just because it is classified does not mean that reveling it would have an impact on U.S. national security. For example, the number of rolls of toilet paper bought for a unit every month maybe classified, due to the fact you could potentially determine unit size and strength from the number. However, it has no impact on the overall National Security of the U.S.
The fact that he is a PFC. means nothing either everyone in the military has the equivalent of a secret clearance it does not mean they have access to anything of importance though. It is just poor journalism and over excitement by Wikileaks in thinking, they have something valuable because it is stamped classified. Nothing of real importance was released in regards to national security, but it sure has helped to feed the ego of someone that seems to crave the spotlight.
This whole Wikileaks thing is a non-story. Really, can any one tell me something new or shocking learned form the leaks? Maybe it was the startling fact that Putin sees himself as a throw back to Russia's Cold War strong man, or the fact that Iran's neighbors are afraid they are being left out of the arms race. No none of those, maybe it was China hacking Google or the fact that civilians dies in a war. Nope it can't be those seeing how we already knew China hacked Google and oh yeah this country drop two atomic bombs on Japan and helped fire bomb a German city about sixty odd years ago.
You go out of your way to try and embarrass The Man you have to be ready to face the consequences.
Actually, cars made by the same company for different countries are considerably different primarily due to the countries safety requirements and fuel mileage laws. These things can affect the most mundane parts of the vehicle anything from the windshield wipers to headlights angle. For example remember the Ford Focus in Casio Royale that everyone thought was cool? That was the European version of car and could not be sold in the States due to US safety requirements.
I also highly doubt GM and Ford teamed up to destroy Toyota. All three companies have a vested interest in a healthy and competitive car market. Two years ago Toyota could of jump on the incentive bandwagon and destroyed GM's market share. They went out of their way not to do this and even stated several times they would do there best to support the overall marketplace.
Most of these stories are puff pieces done for or due to the FUD big consulting companies like CSC, Lockheed, Northup put out to the Bureaucrats in order to keep billing rates high. I have over 10 years of networking experience and a MS in Info Sec from a DHS sponsored school. I have applied multiple times to various positions and have never received a response back.
A lot of the companies that have class A networks had them issued before CIDR. Also don't underestimate the size of some of these networks. Ford has a half dozen datacenters spread out around the world thousands of VOIP phones, Desktops / Laptops, routers, switches, AP, servers. Not to mention most modern manufacturing plants PLC's run on a IP network sure you will never use the whole space but do you really think they are going to re-IP a network that size. Ford also owns a class B network:)
The Third Geneva Convention, which deals with treatment of captives in an armed conflict, exactingly prescribes an opt-in regime. "High contracting parties" to the agreement are duty-bound to honor its terms with respect to the other high contracting parties; others, be they countries which did not sign the treaty or non-state forces, may qualify for Geneva protections, but only by compliance with the treaty's terms for the recognition of non-party rights. -This only applies to "Sovereign nations" that have signed, it dose not cover freedom fighters or terrorist or whatever the P.C. / Non P.C. Word of the week is.
The U.S. did not sign Protocol I of the convention which would of granted convention rights to "non-state forces"
Yes you are right "The Constitution is a document enumerating the powers of the federal government" you left out one key thing which government. The United States it applies to the United States and it's citizens not those of any other country. Same with the Bill of Rights - A statement by the U.S. government saying it will respect the rights of those who have "Consented" to it goverence i.e. it citizens and legal aliens.
1. The United States never signed the full Geneva Convention.
2. "The People" are the citizens of the United States i.e. those who consented to be governed "to formed a more perfect Union"
We have just tried for the moral high ground on most issues.
130,000 seems like a pretty big number, however I work for Ford we got rid of about 20,000 people over the last few months the projected final figure is going to be around 30,000 for lay-offs, buyouts and firings. My department went from eighteen people down to two; I 'm one of the lucky two to still have a job.
IBM made a big push into managed services while it's still big business the market that IBM caters to ie large corporate business is getting smaller the real growth / money for managed services is in the small to medium sized companies, most large companies have figured out they can go to India on their own they don't need to have IBM act as the middleman. Managed services are becoming cheaper and can be bought ala carte. Google hosted managed exchange servers or whitebox VOIP if you want a glimpse of what future managed services are going to look like.
college! My company recently downsized the I.T. department, guess which people are left. Not the guys with the certs, first question asked by HR was who in the department has college degrees. It didn't matter what the degree was in (mines in Poli-Sci) just that you had one.
Just got this on our team blog at Ford Motor on Friday:
Rumors and the Future of the NOC
There have been many rumors going around about the future of the NOC. I want you to know that some final decisions have been made this week and contracts have been signed - Vijay announced yesterday that the NOC, the SOC, and Mainframe Scheduling will be moving to India in the 1st Qtr of next year - by the end of February is the plan for the NOC and the SOC. This is part of the Way Forward efforts that the company have been looking at that are impacting all of us. There are going to be reductions for both Ford and agency personnel as a result. Please feel free to schedule a meeting with me if you have any questions or concerns.
Merry Christmas lol

If you find that shocking you need to pick up some history books http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombing_of_Dresden_in_World_War_II There is nothing new or unquie to what has occured hundreds of times in histrory.

Really just recent years? MS stock has been on the steady downslope since December 1999.
Will I be able to grief my boss?
More then anything, India is probably retaliating for China teaming up with Pakistan on nuclear technology.

you hear me now?
execpt they are paying the fees for the range so they can use it as they see fit. Why should these companies be punished for ARIN's lack of planning.
