Comment NAT box? (Score 1) 527
I wonder if this could be caused by NAT boxes interfering with DNS.
I know my Netgear Wireless router does strange things with DNS requests but I never tried to verify what was going on.

Doesn't seem reasonable to me.
Your description is of an airplane going from just below stall speed to an airspeed that could damage the aircraft before the pilot is able to regain control. I don't think a "high-speed dive" could explain that. Once you're in a dive it should be pretty easy to get the nose up.
Going into something like a flat spin may be a possibility; I have no idea on how vulnerable airliners are to unrecoverable spins.
He might be talking about the Phenom L3 cache bug.
I understand the argument that GPS tracking is not significantly more intrusive than tailing.
But I wonder how police officers would react if GPS devices were surreptitiously placed on their cruisers.
programmer who can't do a list, hash table, bubble sort, or btree at the drop of a hat ought to be kicked out of the industry.
Please, please don't do this. I'm not going to be able to fill out the TPS reports for 90% of my co-workers.
I'd pay extra if it had swearing.
I don't think this is a great situation, but it's probably the least bad situation we could end up with.
It's our own fault (collectively anyway) since we let copyright maximalists set the agenda. The issue became what should the owners get from this deal, rather than what society's claim on orphaned works ought to be. Ideally we would have had a law written that allowed some sort of scheme to deal with orphaned works, but instead we end up with a situation that benefits the means to set up the legal charade that's allowed this deal to happen.
It'll be interesting to see what ends up happening in the future. It seems possible that legislation could be created to at least break Google's exclusivity if not take it away entirely.
At least we'll now have access to these works, without Google, they'd likely stay in legal limbo indefinitely.
If you want to be informal, why not just say "fuck?"
Amen.
Had the same experience, though I'm a bit less negative. I think it's a good read, but there are a lot of good reads out there.
I can see why it was highly influential, and I can see why people liked it at the time.
On the other had the idea of it being one of the 100 best modern novels is completely laughable.
I let her use my backup laptop for a week to see how she liked OO instead of Office on her laptop
I just wanted to say, that was really nice of you.
An SRAM cell is typically a cross coupled inverter (from what I've seen). There's not much potential for memory there. When the power supply reaches zero, the bit is gone.
With DRAM that's not quite the case, which is why the cold boot attack works. Even though the power supply is zero, the bit is still there on the cap.
Sorry, flop == flip-flop.
Most cache is implemented as a flop, which loses its state on power down almost immediately. I don't think it's possible.
