People use "sophisticated" to mean "more trouble than we were prepared for."
Well, it's partly that and part face-saving spin. No one wants to admit they were duped by a simple attack. Only a fool would fall for something like that.
The problem is that the term " cracker [npr.org] " is already well established in use, a derogatory term referring to white people from the rural south.
We prefer to be called "Saltine-Americans".
1-indexing is principally better than 0-indexing, because it is more intuitive, logical and less error-prone.
If my wife and I were truly error prone we wouldn't have this indexing problem in the first place.
Why are breaches being marketed so hard, what's the REAL agenda?
It should be serving as a wake-up call to companies that it is time to take data security seriously. Incredibly, it seems to be falling on deaf ears. I guess it's easier to ignore the issue.
I propose something else: all police wear cameras and audio recording 100% of the time, and a zero tolerance for police who do not adhere to the law, and dismissal/criminal charges are the outcome. Any police officer who turned off his recording stuff is presumed to be lying.
Remove the ability to turn the cameras off. Same with the ability to erase what has been recorded. Anything less than that is just inviting abuse.
IIRC, The Professor built one of these out of bamboo, and then made Gilligan pedal the bicycle.
I thought they just drank the water out of the coconuts broken open on the Skipper's head, which seems to happen every time he stands under a coconut tree.
there's no way for the train to derail, considering the design
I'm not usually one to brag, but here in the US we've mastered the art of crashing two trains together on the same track.
Constitution shmonstitution, we got us a mujorty! We can do as we likes. First up, let's repeal the goddam 15th.
I felt certain that sentence was going to end with the word 'Obamacare'
Can anyone else on Comcast get to it?
I can, works just fine. Not that I'll ever go there again.
What is the difference between selective breeding and genetic modification?
For starters, you can't breed a jellyfish with a zebrafish, no matter how kinky they are. But you can take the flourescent genes from a jellyfish, put them in a zebrafish, and make Glofish.
Would you silence a dissenting view?
I would not. I would let them to speak in public so that everyone can see what idiots they are, and sieze the opportunity to mercilessly ridicule them.
I am reminded of a similar situation several years back when the Smith College Republicans invited Ann Coulter to spout her particular brand of idiocy on campus. "Coincidently", that night Tristan Taormino was also invited on campus to discuss her book The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex for Women. There's something unmistakably brilliant, almost poetic, about that particular juxtaposition.
I implore the students at MSU to not miss this wonderful opportunity for levity.
The inner partitions with awful performance are where my media goes (movies, music, photos).
Hmm. I keep my media (movies, music, & photos) on an external USB drive. It's probably the slowest of all my storage devices and it works just fine. I'm sure there are higher latencies than your setup but I certainly never noticed them.
As a bonus, putting these criminals in jail will also most likely stop all this complaining about a prisoner shortage.
I have a better idea. Why don't we put police who routinely break the law by conducting warrantless searches in the vacant jail cells. Two birds, one stone.
The issue is the balance between public safety and personal privacy.
The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects against unreasonable searches is not just a nice idea, it is codified by the founding fathers as a fundamental principle differentiating this country from others..
The only "issue" is whether you agree with this principle, or not.
IN short, the Fair Tax would destroy the middle class with any practical implementation.
Would that be the same middle class that is being destroyed by the current system? Seems like they're fucked either way.
If you have a procedure with 10 parameters, you probably missed some.
