I'm confused. Is it really only the fear of explosives that airlines are worried about or the fact that on several occasions, it has been proven that someone with a laptop can hack into the airplane's network from their seat on the plane?

How has OpenBSD managed to avoid these sorts of decisions historically?

I see that GSOC 2014 has a proposal to port Capsicum to OpenBSD.

There are no additional fractions needed. There still seems to be confusion around the "1%". You or people you know are in the "1%" when as an individual, you/they have a minimum salary of $350,000.00 a year. The folks who are having to ride those buses are most certainly not making $350k. There is no need to reference ".01%" Unless you are really trying to address folks like Gates or Larry Ellison directly.

You should look into sharefile. It is a secure alternitive to drop box. You can also optionally host an on prem appliance while still utilizing their cloud based access and front end.

The way that I read Jeff's comment was not so much as a ban of the Feds but he seemed to be politically cautioning the attendance of Feds on potential hostilities from attendees who aren't particularly thrilled with the recent disclosures. We can all argue the maturity level of the conference but in the immortal words of Friedrich Nietzsche: "Madness is rare in individuals, but in groups, parties, nations and ages, it is the rule" Surely there would be severe consequences on both sides were there to be pranks or aggressions on Feds in attendance. Of my many years of attendance, I have never considered Defcon to be a completely open environment free from danger, but rather a Hackers Mos Eisley where you can interact with all walks of life, but that you had better be aware of those who do not like you.

To put it another way. The wolf does not adhere to the laws of the little pigs. If your tired of him blowing your house down, you need to stop thinking about patching holes in your straw house. Reenforcing reeds isn't a scalable solution. You need to start building the houses with bricks.

I'm not sure that we have a choice. "Because its hard" is probably not going to be a sufficient excuse with respect to the critical mass we are heading toward. If everything that the world has invested in standing on top of the Internet is so important, than all that important stuff is going to need to experience the growing pain of adapting to new redesigned transit protocols. The alternative seems to be a sheer cliff.

Given that a lot of these problems stem from inherent design flaws with our current Internet protocols, perhaps we ought to start improving upon the 20 and 30 year old protocols we've been relying on. Fundamental scale and design flaws will continue to empower bad people to do bad things so long as it continues to be nearly effortless. BGP, DNS, IPv4... You can only build on a foundation for so long before its age and brittleness beings to cause serious problems.

Really...? You have real threats out there like APT1, and the most useful thing you can think to do is threaten 124 years of prison to try and shake out folks who are doxing, and ddosing??? US Gov: You're doing it wrong.

Always remember that.

You have a long history of being a trickster. I am curious which you are most proud of/which was your favorite.

I guess I am desensitized... I realize this is a pharmaceutical company, but this is all very standard behavior in the tech support / call center world. I've seen this sort of thing since 1998, so it really isn't that new to me. In both cases it sounds like management is being asked to predict productivity and deliverables based on time. Is your job function serial in nature at all? Does someone have to do something to a product before its passed to you and do you pass it to someone after that?
