I worked, as a civilian, for part of the R&D arm of the Navy, but it has a very similar feel to what you have posted. I would 100% agree with everything you have said, except the pay. One thing I will add is getting tools and resources

That is freaking awesome, it's like a refrigerator that still had lead shielding. I haven't worked for the government for 6 or so years, but the last box of skillcraft I had maybe 3 worked out of the box, and not one made it throu

I remember years ago there was a way to DDoS a server by opening the connection and sending data REALLY slow, like 1 byte a second. I wonder if there is a way to do the opposite of that, where ever request is handed off to a worker which s

So think of a block on a CD as some amount of data (like 512 bytes), and some amount of error correction bytes. When the CD is copied those blocks aren't copied exactly, but the data is read, corrected and the block is written with th

Ahh the cycle continues. We have lost touch with the lore of ages past, and only the old crones know of the Hungarian notation [1]. As we discover the ruins of old we glean their knowledge, and take up their practices because they were fr

So by the articles calculations voyager 1 is a steal. At $865 million[1] and 14.5B miles that about 0.034 Euros/Km. 1/20 of what he did in 2005. 1: https://voyager.jpl.nasa.gov/frequently-asked-questions/fact

Does this mean that the decades of training on "Defense in Depth" is going to have to be rewritten and all the certs reacquired?

I'm not sure about the public facing entities, but the Federal Government already has a VERY widespread PKI system in place that I'm sure they will leverage. Most federal departments already have a process for distributing a smart

What would this entail? I have had only a handful of managers, and only some of them good. What kind of things should I be looking for to give feedback to my manager? I kinda feel like I'm watching a glassblower and getting asked &quo

What I think is interesting and not talked about in the copilot cases is there is actually two different copyright actions that come from using it. The first is if GitHub had a license to distribute the code they have learned on. This is as

That is the orbital prediction at the estimated time of reentry. They take where it is right now projected about 3 days out, and show us 6hrs before and after. LEO takes around 2 hrs or less to circle the earth. This will change. If ther

In a traditional tree you just store a bunch of y's. So let's say 7 points are just y0-y6. In a tree you would need at least 7 keys stored. In this you would just have m and b stored and you would use the formula to look up the in

Nope, there will just be this giant wall that will only let non-banned subjects through, burning the rest to a crisp. I'm actually scared what the internet will look like less 230. I'm guessing we will see more 4chan then pre-app

Not at AWS, retail Amazon, but what I saw was COEs were either normal business process or PIP material depending on which org you worked for. And sometimes just the excuse to get you gone. Where I was about 99.9% of the COEs where just a l

Have you checked out the Atom Pi? It's an X86 Atom processor, it has a bunch of drawbacks, like no power connector (you have to use the back of board 40pin header), but they are usually around $35.

Both of these proposals are going to have worrying knock-on effects. They are both trying to penalize bad actors, instead of trying to incentivize good actors. Do we really make these institutions better by making it harder for "bad&q

I'm seeing that my upload speed (90M) is way under both what is advertised, and what other speed tests show. Is there a good way to test what my actual upload speed is?
