Comment Link to download the source of Application Quest? (Score 1) 18
It sounds like Application Quest is becoming the defacto admission algorithm to admit students at some public colleges. Where can we download the source and see how it works?

From page 7 of the paper (http://devd.me/papers/pwdmgr-usenix14.pdf):
- LastPass, RoboForm and My1login all had "bookmarklet" vulnerabilities (used if you share passwords across the web - shudder)
- LastPass, Roboform and NeedMyPassword all had "web" vulnerabilities
- My1login and PasswordBox both had "authorization" vulnerabilities
- LastPass and RoboForm both had "UI" vulnerabilities
The other thing I wondered at was why the special mention of "creating tools to automatically identify such vulnerabilities" when there's a bunch of packages that already do that...until I looked on page 14 and saw the list of US government grants that sponsored this paper, plus mention of some Intel funding. (If you want the money to flow, first identify the problem...)
I've had two kids now in youth chess and this article smacks of the "wrong direction" I think the youth chess movement is headed.
The trends I saw included:
#1) More PAID chess instructors. Er...for what? The best instruction...and players...are already online, with fully developed laddering, ranking, tutorials, etc.
#2) More REMOTE tournaments. What is this...hockey now? This is a huge barrier to families (e.g., smart immigrants, kids with divorced parents) who can't afford to truck the two hours in each direction - and overnight (i.e., requiring a hotel) meets are on the horizon.
#3) Life AFTER chess is discouraged. In my "gifted" experience, you learned chess in first or second grade, and could take down just about anyone in middle school, but then you moved on from games into programming, higher math, or something else with a lot of other people who outgrew chess as a daily or even weekly activity. However, "outgrowing chess" is no longer OK with this crowd...instead you're expected to keep playing until you ladder up or burn out - yikes.

>> Comanche program was cancelled after only $7B was spent
$7B in 1990 is like $100B in 2015
>> Why do I think this program will end up with a tiny, tiny fraction of ($100B)
'cause you're not an American taxpayer, perhaps? I think I'll bet the opposite: "unforeseen" cost overruns will balloon this into a $300B project with only about 500 helicopters to show for it.

I'm sure the TSA already has plans to shut that down too.
We should just be happy that they're still considering leaving pilots in the planes at this point - the future might just be flying as cargo in really big (windowless) UAVs.
>> Maybe. It depends on how early you like to adopt. That's about it. But that's pretty powerful.
Your writing style. Is the suck.

I have a feeling if the story was about the current House of Representatives slashing ITER funding, we'd see a screed about "anti-science Republicans." However, since the Senate is led by Democrats...
I dumped all other music providers about a year ago and now use Songza, particularly since it's mostly ad-free (and easy to download the streams). However, I've noticed that Songza's suggestions also seem to be location-based: when I'm at home in the sticks, I see a lot of country music suggestions, but when I'm in my office in the city, I mostly see rap and R&B suggestions.
It's a naive, domestic operating system without any breeding, but I think you'll be amused by its presumption.
