And Trevor Perrin's response: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.ietf.irtf.cfrg/2337 I concur: Kevin Igoe should resign, if nothing else then to remove the cloud of suspicion, given the revelations of NSA sabotage.

On the other hand: with the digital edition, they are able to track _each_ and _every_ thing you do on their site, and sell that data to advertisers. Try doing that with the paper version.

Sorry to go off on a tangent, but: I would love to subscribe to NYT digital editions, but why must the digital edition cost almost as much as the paper edition? Imagine the waste involved (in energy and materials)! Current home delivery rat

On the surface, I welcome this editorial. About time. But the NYT has deep connections to the USG, so I'm wondering where this editorial is coming from. It could be a trial balloon on the part of the administration to test the public&#

Freezer? I've heard of HDDs that wouldn't spin up, were put in a freezer for 2 days and then spun up. They key is to copy the data off QUICKLY as it dies the moment warms up. So you can't go around doing a "grep -r -

It doesn't matter if you're a founder or a janitor; what matters is how many shares do you have? Just because you're a "founder" doesn't give you any special fiduciary powers; you're just a person with lot

Finally, some Democrats with balls. For all the "tea party" rhetoric that comes from Republicans, I've yet to see 1 Republican step up and put his reputation on the line. Where are Rand Paul and Ted Cruz? How do they reconcil

I hear that often. If HFT is indeed lowering the cost, how come they are making the money and not the retail traders? This last quarter I may have bought/sold on the order of 10K shares max. If there's a $0.0001 tax per share trad

To paraphrase a famous line: I'm shocked, shocked that there's spying going on! Snark aside: what may have riled French feathers is the fact that NSA spied on politicians too. I bet they have lots of blackmail stuff.

That page you linked to is a barebones guide to RTL-SDR. Any specific tips on finding and listening to interesting frequencies (or using it as a police scanner)?
