Exactly, and I think this is what the AC was trying to say in one of the earlier responses.

The headline seems as if it is trying to tie this story to all the recent reports of the agency actively weakening crypto algorithms.

It would have been insane to allow classified algorithms to be published along with TCP/IP (unless of course they were willing to declassify).

I didn't watch the video, but read TFA. There, Cerf is quoted to say:
1. “If I had in my hands the kinds of cryptographic technology we have today, I would absolutely have used it,”
2. “During the mid 1970s while I was still at Stanford and working on this, I also worked with the NSA on a secure version of the Internet, but one that used classified cryptographic technology. At the time I couldn’t share that with my friends,” Cerf said. “So I was leading this kind of schizoid existence for a while.”

Maybe he said it in the video, but in TFA he does not say "I wanted to use the classified technology in TCP/IP but the agency denied my request."

Soylent Corporation is always hiring.

If we are going to build a Death Star, it would be entirely appropriate to build it with Imperial units.

I guess that makes this the militarization of the Sneakernet.

Yes, sorry, I should been less terse and followed with "their effective radiated power is even less than that!".

That would essentially reward them for trying to buy unsuitable spectrum on the cheap.

GPS uses a MEO orbit. They are about 20,000 km above the surface.

I wish you were joking...

Google bought a Dornier Alpha (German/French) to use for research. Maybe they wanted something to fly CAP over their Google Maps car?

Apologies if you're not in the US, but here any statement that is not 100% supportive of religion is considered an attack on it. That's why atheist billboards and bus adverts lead to righteous indignation and vandalism.

She did not state that she lost her job due to the photos. She stated that she lost her job due to her own OCD and anxiety.

How anxious will she become when she learns that photos of her undergarments have been posted to Slashdot?

I suspect that far more people saw her clothes on the wash line just by walking down the street than would have seen them on the net if she hadn't sued.

I have to agree with the praise for TMG. I've been using it for several years now (version 4 then version 6). I have found it to be incredibly flexible in handling conflicting evidence, and it also generates some nice reports. I had moved my data from Family Tree Maker, so it did take me quite a while to "clean up" my database to change from a fact-based system to an evidence-based system, but I think the results have been worth it.

To be clear to the OP, it is definitely not an Open Source program in that it costs money and the file formats are (IIRC) proprietary as well (but there are plenty of export options so you are not locked-in).

Pressing one key (two if you count going back to the top) is exactly the kind of effort that most people don't make. :-D
