The point is that there is a limit to testing. And some people go way overboard with it. You'll never get 100% coverage. It's simply not possible. Now, that doesn't mean you should not test. It means you should understand the

It depends on who you ask. The younger generation who have ECE/CS degrees love SDR. So does the military and the commercial/corporate radio industry. Some of the older generation frown upon SDR as voodoo magic with too many comput

We all second guess ourselves. The long term impacts of lasik are not fully known yet. It may turn-out to be just fine over the long haul. Don't beat yourself up too much.

I looked at my data. It's all public data anyway. I'm not surprised or concerned. Perhaps I'm missing something obvious?

It seems like a reasonable requirement. If you want to do business there, then setup a data center and store data there.

System security should be built-in, not bolted on by snake oil vendors looking to make a buck. Nothing against kaspersky, I like them, but I'm with Microsoft on this. Games, browsers and other add-ons are higher-layer applications wher

I don't use Facebook, but no one I know was surprised by the outcome. Bill Clinton was disbarred, impeached, and he sexually exploited young female interns in the White house and was also accused of sexual crimes by many women. Hillary

I've been experimenting with Tomoyo Linux lately. To me, it's the simplest LSM to reason about (although I have misconfigured it before). In the spirit of Russell Coker's SELinux play machine, I have an initial Tomoyo test ma

It's OK to hide from the bear. Maybe he won't see you. But if he finds you, you'll need at least bear spray and maybe a shot gun to defend yourself. That's the basic idea. Obscurity is only bad when it's the only

When I was a kid, people did not own phones. They could only rent them from AT&T. I remember going with my family to buy our own phone (after that became legal). The FCC's Resale and Shared Use decision is a good read: http:/

Many technologies break the end to end principle. NAT, load balancers, caches, security inspection/monitoring devices, etc. This occurs everywhere on most every network and should not come as a surprise, although many technologists and
