Comment digital security (Score 1) 68

The problem with digital security is that to have enough security you need so huge numbers that you can't remember what was the original one. If you can't remember the stuff how would you expect to validate something? Humans will loose to machines in every way, so it's easier to make humans secure instead of machines secure.

Comment about the sequence idea (Score 1) 189

what is incredible for this sequence idea is that instance is base dependent. but definition not. I mean, base-10 : 1,12,123,1234,12345,... base-2:1,110=4 base 10, 11011=27 base 10, 11011100 = 220 base 10, 11011100101 =1765 base 10 base-4:1,12=6 base 10,123=27 base 10,1210=100 base 10, base 8:1,12=10 base 10, 123=83 base 10, 1234=... 123 in base 8 is 83 in base 10 which is prime. So I do believe there is infinite primes on base 10, it's not a solid belief, but anyway it's not the case. the case is that any huge prime generated by this idea can be optimally compressed by its last part.

Comment Dear Enterprise Architect (Score 1) 198

You know you are being paid to be the second to be blamed after sysadmin. You also know that money don't care if there is gravity in this planet. I do not need to mention that you like to not being able to handle this cause its a lot of money. But I need to mention that you don't have time to spent that money. And that's all the reason why people giveup being CEO or worse, make "mistakes" being CEO in order to run own non-profit business. What stakeholders have in mind is always a company that has so strong muscles that inertia would not allow the brain to have other choice. But the brain always have a graham number of choices, so if you touch what you can't touch by hacking enterprise you are in trouble by choice.

Comment Re:just kill eval (Score 1) 56

guess browser manufacturers should restrict document.write to a "meta allow source", it would breaks direct malicious injection(by console), but crafted messages are not in javascript client side scope, so the data must be filtered/sandboxed at server side if belongs to the scope of injection analisys. at client side there is not much more to do if the client is owned by the attacker.

Comment Fund raising (Score 1) 321

True to the matter, it may be a fake. But why risk future fundings? Immediate bankrupcy is on the way? I don't think so. Some things are more difficult to raise human capital than others, and those things use to have a huge queue of people wanting to get in. Maybe chip manufacturers could fake the efficiency, but again, why risk it?

Comment Scope (Score 1) 345

All that being said, is there one particular thing or point that separates learners from masters? Knowledge of public well known libs, how to overscope and underscope legacy code without touching it keeping it manageable.

Comment Energy (Score 1) 272

Guess it should be kept to generate energy in a future where this kind of tech could be controled, the danger is that if society can't be controled does such devices with control could possibly be controled? U.S. citizens think in peace by now and if in 1k years that tech still has no control, where the bombs will fall? devices are pratically imortal compared to a social setup.

Comment Setup (Score 1) 367

At that point of full automation, the only purpose of financial system is to control overpopulation. But as long as poor won't have access to money they won't have access to that automation, that means the population will shrink and starve cause "the faith" won't let births become bureaucratic by removing financial system to a state controled births and deaths with a quota resources for every one. Simply there will be no discussion about it cause govern do not lead anymore, tech (not tech people, just tech) leads. Open source or not, its unavoidable, unprecedented change on human history. Govern could pose that has the control by marketing fear, but its just that, ads for votes.
