You either design out the opportunity to cheat, or you enter an arse kicking contest against a monster with sixteen legs and no arse. There really is no middle ground.
How to you design out a map hack? My computer knows where his units are, therefore there is always going to be a way for me to find that out.
The only way I can see would be to have the players' machines as simply dumb terminals, with the actual game being played on Blizzard's server. I don't know if that is possible in terms of maintaining acceptable performance. I'm absolutely bloody positive that it would involve a monthly subscription fee to make it viable.
So no, I don't think it is a "spazz-move". They'll never be able to stamp out cheating, but I'm glad to see they are doing their best to keep in under control.
So, I mess with your package, and I get sprayed with a florescent liquid containing DNA.
I hope they don't try to patent this, as I think there may be prior art.
I think you should maybe see a doctor...
Do you really think the Chinese workers will stand up for their rights? Hell, the idea of human rights in general is a purely Western concept.
We aren't talking about human rights in general, but the inevitable fact that as labour gets more scarce, workers' power increases. This is very much happenening now in China - interesting article from the Economist: The rising power of the Chinese worker.
Well, if you claim I am wrong point out the exact act of Parliament which enshrined this basic right as fundamental so it cannot be encroached by further legislation
This makes no sense in British terms - Parliament is sovereign and cannot be bound.
That said, the centuries old common law presumption of innocence was enshrined in positive law in the Human Rights Act, 1998.
It is _NOT_ a fundamental, nonrevocable and unalienable right as it is in any other civilised country.
I can't figure out if you are American with a Blair fixation, or British but enamoured of the concept of a written constitution. In either case I think you are misguided:
A written constitution is not "fundamental, nonrevocable and unalienable" since it can be amended, the procedure is just a little more involved than normal legislation. And you only need to look at Prohibition in the US to see that this is no bar to stupid laws that restrict freedom. It also makes them a lot harder to get rid of. Ultimately the cost of freedom is eternal vigilance either way; a citizenry that is either complacent or uncaring of their liberties will lose them in any system, whether or not you have the speed bump of a written constitution or not.
It is easier to write an incorrect program than understand a correct one.
