Two acceptable solution states does not imply that the program should produce both of them.
This test is worthless. It's too focused on implementation details. This is not a Computer Science test. It's a Java test. It's forcing the student down one narrow path to implement the solution in a very particular way. It's a free-form format, but there is no test of analytical ability other than to parse the question itself.
If you're going to test computer science the questions should be more along the lines of "Which data structure do you believe would be most appropriate for representing a box of candy and why?"
Work related VPNs are different. They are owned by the company you work for to protect their data, which is a legitimate use of VPNs. This article is talking about 3rd party VPNs.

Yeah, I think this is the main point. It seems like the requirements to get a
Of course, then comes the issue of mining the ice while it sits outside the harbor - has anything like that ever been done before?
We have harvested natural ice, although probably never directly from an iceberg. You would probably want a specialized port to do it. The hard part would be getting the iceberg to the harvesting site.
"The computer is to be three hundred qubits long, fifty qubits wide and thirty qubits high."
The problem is they look too real. One of the local Best Buy's had a Marvel movie playing on one of their 4K TVs. It looked like a "making of" documentary. "The actor walks here, and rolls a container there." It took me a while to figure out that it was the movie itself. All of the effect was lost.
Is this $10 a one time fee, per month, or per year?
Most people don't care about any of that stuff. The real "problem" is what they have works and they see no reason to spend more money to do what they can already do.
You can get EWTN with Roku or other devices via the Internet. They don't need TBN to stay in business. Of course, broadband ISP monopolies are their own story.
Any program which runs right is obsolete.
