Over inflating tires maybe not, but taping over panel gaps for -10% in fuel would interest a lot of people.

Who is Adam Clark Estes? I'd really like to know, because his "article" reads like it was written like a 5-year-old.
At five, it is true that children usually do not know the difference between "its" and "it's". I tried to parse "down" as "party-time" before my eyes went back and decided there shouldn't be a verb before "competitor". I thought it was the submitter, but it's from the TFA.
Indeed. IMO SSL public keys could be stored in DNSsec protected DNS records. That way one would only have to trust the manager of the root zone and the TLD, which would be a good improvement compared to the CA debacle.
Right, and when you buy example.com you should be able to sign certs for whatever.example.com for free.
the state wanted routers with redundant power supplies [...] for 24/7/365 locations such as regional jails and
DHHR state hospitals.
And even in that case they would have been better off with two cheaper routers and two data links in a redundant configuration! One of the standard packages for sale at $OLDWORK was/is "1 SDSL line, 1 ADSL line, two 1800-series (formerly 800-series) Cisco routers, with BGP and HSRP set up so that when both lines are up VoIP goes over the SDSL and non-VOIP goes over the ADSL, when one line goes down everything goes on the other automatically and our support is automatically notified". It cost a *LOT* less than USD 20000!
That would be Bibale
Once the todo list is done, tie it to a "what am I doing" applet that lets you click on the task you are now going to devote time to. At the end of the day/week/whatever, display totals, time left, projected end date at current speed (time spent per day on the task), etc.
Or will it be Yoda?
My first thought when seeing the crossword was that to make sure there aren't two or more answers, you place the clue between egrep and
And the NOISE that thing must make!
we are directed to a copy of the video... on YouTube??
Why not "Fight You're Own Muscles", at least it's pronounced the same. Or is this Yoda-speak?
Should've read The Stand by Stephen King too, at least the first half which is basically scientific worst-case what-if fiction. The second half is Stephen King-typical paranormal fiction.
Computer-wise they need some virtualization-clustering fu. Not having coded so a logical node can run on several physical servers I can understand, but having some crazy-powerful server/nodes but no way to seamlessly move users to them seems a pity.
Military-wise, those who made the first mistake decided not to cut their losses, tried to recoup by throwing the good after the bad, throwing in reserves to save suddenly severely exposed friendlies, and they got severely burned for that. I'm sure there are second-years studying military strategy who are shaking their heads at newbie errors.
Human-wise, as alen said, how many divorces...
I distinctly remember at least one occasion where troops exercising with blank rounds managed to hit bystanders (Carcassonne, France, June 29th 2008). I'm sure there have been others. Not to mention bystanders with weapons firing back!
A computer scientist is someone who fixes things that aren't broken.
