There are a lot of words in this document. What we need is some infographics that boil it down into something people without the time to read and parse all of those findings can understand easily. A map showing vulnerable states, some pic

I suspect the ability to count things other than words was added later.

As a tech worker in a startup in the midwest I find this article vaguely insulting. On the one hand I am happy to see more acknowledgement that tech does happen in places other than Silicon Valley, but on the other hand apparently it is on

I've been through probably 3 DOZEN layoffs so far in my career. If management comes in one day out of the blue and assures you there won't be layoffs I can 100% guarantee there will be soon. (Especially when it is an executive f

I wouldn't worry. Most people can't afford $200K cars that burn an entire tank of gas an hour.

Our company is switching to bluejeans. I'm optimistic because they actually appear to support linux. I made the switch from OSX to linux laptop last spring. I can do almost everything I did before... except share screens easily.

You can get some real headaches with auto-incrementing integers if you have to go to a multi-master or some other distributed system for data inserts. How do you know which integer to insert next for a table that is replicated across system

WRT running http over non-standard ports. I'm pretty sure one could write a chrome extension to make that transparent. Lest it be counter-blocked by the ISP, it seems like one could do a "spread spectrum" port hopping (with

Recently a famous AI project was shut down because it was inventing its own language. Perhaps the next generation programming language and design paradigms won't come directly from humans at all.

Many blockchain applications I've seen aren't distributed over millions of computer systems. Thousands, maybe. Hundreds for some.

My understanding is that blockchain truth is determined via a majority vote. What I'm really not clear on is how someone with a botnet can't simply take over a blockchain. With such large sums of cash at stake, it seems like a s

What we need is a systems model that allows us to assess the overall health of a server in a single metric. Indicators of something under strain will reflect itself in the metric and draw our attention for further drilldown and analysis.

Why use a voting machine at all? Isn't the main point of having a polling location simply so you can verify your identity? If we could come up with a system that allowed one's identity to be verified online, or by postal service

Non-neutral internet bandwidth packages will only be offered if there is profit to be made. Cell phone companies didn't give us free long distance out of the kindness of their heart - it was simply too expensive to administer the bill
