Haven't we solved this? There for storms there is an existing list of names and when a new severe hurricane forms we pick a name from the list at random. Why let's do the same for viruses. Sucks if your name is picked (e.g. Katrina Virus) but it seems like the best system we have so far.
Because of new features? On the contrary, we are still finding holes in OpenSSL that are many years old.
If you think the mechanisms Rust uses to prevent security issues are "magic," you aren't familiar enough with the technology to comment on it.
Despite many eyes over many years we are still finding bugs in OpenSSL. The appeal of using Rust is that the compiler itself prevents several classes of serious security bugs. That's why it's news (at least among security pros) to see widespread security critical libraries implemented in Rust.
Nothing in your post is true. The default bucket policy is private and the default security group allows no public access.
Ethereum and Monero are the reason GPUs are being snatched up by miners. The value of those coins crashed horribly earlier in the month... to the point where it was barely profitable to mine. But prices have rebounded recently, so you can expect GPUs to start selling out again soon.
When the blockchain "difficulty factor" for ETH and XMR solidly surpasses their record highs, then you will know these ASICs are really rolling out. From there it won't be long until these $700 cards can be found on Ebay for chump change.

My understanding is that it doesn't upload ANYTHING unless you say the keyword "Alexa" first. Then it just uploads what it needs to understand the commands. You could probably verify this with any network monitoring tool...
So it is not a "spying" device; it's a "respond to the commands you give it" device.
People were afraid of barcodes when they first came out. You're the latest wave of that mindset.
Based on the comments here I think it's probably time to cede the Slashdot comments system to the Alt-Right (Entitled Idiot Techbro Division).
I mean the site's always had a slight libertarian bent that was best ignored, but damn it's got stupid in here.
All this tells us is that Verio/NTT.net is a crappy hosting provider, not that Giuliani has done anything wrong.
No, it tells us Guiliani failed to perform due diligence before selecting a hosting provider. This negligence or incompetence puts his customers directly at risk.
TrueCrypt worked flawlessly on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Anything which supports only one of the three major platforms is no successor of TrueCrypt.
You can't make something expensive "free," but you can force people to pay for something they wouldn't voluntarily pay for via taxes.
By taxing goods up front proportionally to their reclamation costs (and the costs of their packaging) we could fund "free" recycling and even encourage manufacturers to adopt more environmentally-friendly designs.
I wouldn't be surprised if PHP already works this way.
It's believable that someone could get a B+ in an entry level CS class even without a good understanding of arithmetic. Entry level CS is more about understanding flow control and variables than it is about mathematics.
If she got a B+ in Calculus, that would be concerning. And since all university-level CS programs require Calculus, the student in your story likely never graduated... unless this was a for-profit college, perhaps.
Incorrect. In buyouts, offers are often made at significant premiums to the market value. In other words, companies are often worth much more than share prices indicate.
If you've worked in IT for a while you should be able to put together a $150k check...
