for maximizing employee productivity. Most of those workers won't be able to go somewhere else without taking a big pay cut. That means he can set as high of a standard for productivity has he wants, because the workers will do just about anything to keep their higher-than-market wages. I wonder if anyone will be able to make over 70k at his firm?

Wake me when they can zap a mouse and it can get to someplace it's never been before.

...this does not seem to be that serious an infraction. To the average citizen, they will see this as the equivalent of using Firefox or Chrome when told to use only IE. (which, interestingly enough, her staff at the state department begged her to allow).In reality though, this is a VERY serious violation of IT/Security policy. The govt run email system has certain protections in place to ensure confidentiality, repel intrusion, prevent staff from snooping on emails, etc. While other email providers also care about these things, it's almost guaranteed that will not go to the same lengths to protect against and punish malfeasance. If I were her, the NSA revelations would have given me stomach ulcer. A govt email could easily be excluded from any digital reconnaissance conducted by the NSA. Her gmail or yahoo account? Just the opposite. And heaven help us if other countries have anything close to our capabilities/level of infiltration into 3rd party email providers. She should seriously be pondering how many of her foreign policy initiatives were foiled as result of her utter laziness and willful ignorance. They should fire some people at the state department -- anyone who received an email from her should have noticed she was using her personal email, and should have "blown the whistle". And this should be a major campaign issue -- but it won't.Our political system is not for the rational -- it's for the power hungry and those entertained by the power hungry. Full hypocrisy disclosure -- I also love House of Cards.

Here's what I want to know. Did the NSA have knowledge about this vulnerability? If they did, and they didn't report it, they should be held at least partly accountable. Based on what we've learned that the NSA knows, it's likely they both knew about these vulnerabilities and knew that Target was vulnerable to them. Target should launch a FOIA request to find that out, and then sue the NSA for failing to disclose these vulnerabilities.

You must have seen a different movie than I did. He didn't refuse to fight his father, he refused to expediently KILL his father. Even though he did fight his father, even delivering a dismembering blow, he was able to transcend his paralyzing fears of both giving into the dark-side and not protecting the people he cared about. Free from his fear, he became free to simply turn-down Palapatine's command to execute Darth Wheezer. Fortunately, his transcendence unlocked the better part of Anakin's nature, which came flooding out when the emperor brought out his force-Tesla-taze, resulting in the overthrow of the emperor, wheezer, and the armada of lawn darts.

Um, Hillary is actually not currently in Govt. any more; John Kerry now runs the State Department.

This is a great guest, especially relevant to the view of the greater Slashdot community. But this is a horrible interview. Please listen to NPR to understand how real interviews are done. A real interviewer knows how draw out the "goods" from their guest. For example, this guy has a pretty even-keeled vocal delivery of information, so a questions that help connect to his passions might be a good idea. "Why are you writing that book", why did you feel debunking was important to do", "what is the most tragic con you know about", etc. I don't wish to be cruel, but this guy asking the questions does not sound like he has a natural gift for talking. Can I do the rest of the interview?

... than to expect accuracy in the summary, but it wasn't less than half that tried to contact the owners, it was exactly half. From the executive summary of the linked PDF: "50 percent of smartphone finders contacted the owner and provided contact information"
