I believe this is something that should be mandatory for all computer engineering/science students should watch, along with getting a bit of a history lesson:

The concepts for the time, in my opinion, are mind blowing. I hope there are some people in this world who are considering some equal mind blowing ideas for these times, although I do not think they could ever get pulled together into one demo like what Doug Engelbart did.
It appears that the front ends of the bank system were attacked (as opposed to the backend servers in the data centers). The frameworks and OSs that are used by three of the top four banks in South Korea are very common, and are used world wide, but it appears that only South Korea has had issues.
The patch to cover the vulnerability and the fix looks like it will have to be manually patched on each machine due to the type of vulnerability. This really sucks, as the banks need to run around people to all of the machines.
Unfortunately, banks have bought into what people/consultants/corporations have told them were secure systems, and money has trumped security. So this is not the only vulnerability out there. This news just proves that multiple security precautions have failed, and I hope certain people get banned from working in the security industry after making all these mistakes.

Yay slashdot!
BGP is at a layer higher than ip, so whether you are using IPv4 or IPv6 (or any other protocol), it does not matter.
(And yes, i realize that the implementations of BGP often involve sending TCP/IP and UDP/IP packets around, but the point is that switching to IPv6 is not going to change your BGP configuration or BGP tables.)
> IANAL, but on the other hand, if no computer language or library API can enjoy copyright protection, then it appears to me that it doesn't have GPL or Creative Commons protection either (since being required to follow these licences follows from the copyright holder's discretion)...

IANAL as well, but i believe copyright != license. A license usually involves copyright, but, by definition, the reverse is not true.
However, copyright infringement penalties often have much larger penalties than disobeying a license.
This does not really make logical sense, but as the MAFIAA prioritizes their short term greed over logic and the health of the industry (and US senators and congressmen need MAFIAA's money to get re-elected), it is how the world works.
However, many things have not changed, like the Microsoft FUD war, the BSDs' installation UI, and the sky is the limit for Linux (except when it comes to the year of the Linux desktop).
So... why are a lot of us still using Windows? What would it take for us to switch?"
Anyone else with me that just suggests to use wireless instead?
Sure, i have gigabit and 10gb in my server room, and one gigabit wire going from the server room to where i watch 1080p movies (which i have used once for about 5 minutes), but otherwise, 802.11b/g/n works fine. If it is an issue with conflicting channels with the neighbours, you are not trying hard enough.
And for the next time you build a house: There is no standard wire that will last forever. Coax was the standard about 20 years ago (and it
Thus, you should have wire conduits, with fibre's limited ability to turn corners in mind. Another option is to have the ability to drop wire easily from the attic between the walls all the way to the basement, and/or to have removable ceiling tiles. Be careful with insulating though, because a big whole in an outside wall can ruin your heating bill.
According to http://tw.wowarmory.com/character-achievements.xml?r=Wrathbringer&cn=%E5%B0%8F%E7%81%B0&gn=%E7%A5%9E%E6%A8%A3 , he still has one world event to attend. He also has not reached the top of the ladder for 2v2, 3v3, or 5v5 matches.
However, he did finish 165 out of 164 player versus player matches. I am not sure how that works.
Also, why are we presuming this person is a he?
