All hail the New World Order and our masters at NSA. I was not a true believer in the NSA NWO but then I watched the 30c3 vid mentioned in the summary. Holy crap. No wonder Charlie Stross gave up on his next novel. I am now beyond horrified and simply in awe of our new Overlords.
I actually read the article. You know what it is? It is a simplified tutorial on white box testing for people who don't know, that is, amateur programmers. Yeah, that would have once been new and interesting to me, when I was learning to program. Not when I was doing it for a living though. Bad title and summary.
Teenagers want and need to find a place of their own, to form their own subculture. A new technology comes along, they jump on board because they are highly adaptable, their parents less, often much less, so. But after five years the teenagers are getting out of their teens and those entering the teens once again need to find their own space. Therefore, there can be no permanent place for teens unless it puts off older people joining or staying. Anyway, someone needs to beta test the new communications paradigms.
Probably fresh from their success with the Queensland Health system.
Frist Ploe!
Non-canonical. No karma for you!
Well it was a joke, considering I have an even lower UID and am over 60. And yeah I feel your pain. Hmm, modded down because somebody is humour deficient. Ah well, that is so slashdot.
Wow. Still, I would not have guessed javascript would be in (apparent) decline. Sorry already blew my mod points here.
I nice piece of self irony considering the complainer's UID is lower than the guy who must be "over 35". Young kids these days.
This will make redundant all those claims of "I value my privacy that's why I am not on Facebook." Well you are now.
This is definitely not a good thing. OTOH, someone should develop a small projector that will project ads onto my forehead, so I can turn it on when a 'glasser' comes up to me. Yeah annoy the crap out of them, and/or hopefully get my image blocked, and/or earn some ad revenue. Yay, win/win.
And it is not as if it hard to implement those. In fact I did that when I was learning to program
If only I had mod points. Nice post.
Uh
This (a goldilocks era) is a really interesting idea which seems obvious now that someone has brought it up. But it would be brief. Think of it this way, for millions of years the cosmic glow would be hot, too hot. Planets form, create magma oceans
"Drone Shooting - For Fun and Profit"
You know, it occurs to me that if everyone has a drone you could have Drone Wars in the skies, zipping in between buildings, each attached with some short range weapon

BLISS is ignorance.
