He also noted:

@Alex Khomenko told me in another place, that there may be
a secondary authentication on password changes from the
forgotten password link, in the US PayPal. If true and
currently in place this would mean that the US is not
vulnerable, although they may still have the email bug

He said he doesn't use PayPal himself and that he only requested a change password link when he was trying to contact them about "effective spam". Perhaps he supplied them with one of his email addresses and it happened to have a counterpart at a different subdomain (like example@email.com vs example@email.com.au)?

I really hope that the community sees this and I get a few fresh ideas on how to solve this situation. Right now I am struggling every day.
Bravo! When I found the introvert definition I didn't feel like I was locking myself into an "introverted identity" box. I was discovering that many other people feel the same way that I do, and it was incredibly liberating.

Even though I identify as being introverted, people are usually surprised when I say that I'm introverted. They feel like I am sociable and even extroverted.

A few years ago I gave myself a hard time about it-- why couldn't I keep up with social scenes like others could? Why do parties always burn me out? Identifying as an introvert has explained these facets, and given me the understanding to overcome them when I need to.

>Probability is not the sort of math this guy is aiming at.

I get that, I'm just not sure there's a good reason for it. Extending discrete models to their probabilistic versions is often very useful. Probabilistic knowledge representation is much less brittle than a logic-based system. Stochastic grammars and probabilistic automata have been essential to both language modeling and bioinformatics. Game graphs are nice for perfectly observable systems, but stochastic games are much more common in real life (and have to be modeled using some probabilistic mechanism).

This page has some good fundamentals, it's just weird to me that probabilistic extensions weren't also presented.
For me:

1. Select the right course. Course with a lot of fact details to remember forget them, for instance, history, business law, biology, geography. Do calculation based course, typical a good foundation in maths is required.

2. Choose the right lecturers. Some lecturers you just wouldn't be scoring an A off of. It's not you, it's them. "These nitwits didn't even comment their code right; there I'm taking 5%". <-- Avoid. You generally look for someone who grade is skewing to the high percentage and is normally distributed[avoid bimodal distribution] . For your cores course you might not be able to avoid such lecturers, but kill your optional courses.

3. Go to every class.

4. Take notes at every class.

5. Clarify anything you don't know right there and then. Think to yourself that if you don't know the rest of the class don't know either, and they are probably too shame to admit it. Never let shame stand between you and an A.

I think the key to the guy technique is simply to learn once. Whether everyone can do this is a little suspect.

> Current 10-year T-bill rates around 3% per year mean

The fed is buying most of them now. The fed can keep doing that "forever", but that doesn't mean that our trading partners will keep selling us stuff cheap.

Yes, the US is doing better than many countries, but that's not the same as good.

> not borrowing as much as possible now seems downright stupid.

It depends on what you do with the money you borrow. Spending it on beer and skittles is different than investing it in something that will give a decent return, or even saving it as part of an interest rate prediction.

And yes, I objected when Bush pushed through his $1T prescription drug monstrosity and other things. That said, the last yearly deficit with a Repub congress was about the same as the current monthly deficit. Starting from Bush's hole, it seems silly to dig faster.
If I'm working an early shift, then chances are I won't have time before I have to leave, but if I'm starting later then I can waste a good hour or two just clicking about while I wake up.

And expensive. I thought for a while about how to work around it. For example, you might open a private members club. Would that work? I always wanted to open a table tennis pub (like Dr Pongs in Berlin if anyone has been), and I figured that since it's centered around an activity, you might get away with private members club.

> Another article making the case that money does not buy happiness

Huh? It's buying them things that they can't get in China.

Sure, you can argue that they'd be happier with those things in China, but that's not up to them. They're using money to get their second choice, those things, but not in China.

Do you want to argue that they would be happier in China without those things? (Note "should" isn't "would".)

I think people greatly overestimate the capabilities of any government, US or otherwise, to police parcels coming in and out of the country. The overwhelming majority of drug war dollars are spent on going after big busts. There practically is no budget for postal packages unless there is something suspicious about them. This policy of course would change if the drug market experiences a shift from locally sourced to postal sourced.

The only drugs that make sense to source locally are those that can be grown locally, namely marijuana and mushrooms. Almost all others are fair game for postal sourcing.

Is there a way of having one's account completely deleted from paypal by request? Through the support website? I only found a link for "close account" and I cannot use it since my account has been "limited" and I have no interest in sending paypal even more of my personal information like copy of passport and what not.
Did you end up getting EFI to work? I tried, but the efivars module wasn't creating the right sysfs devices. Then I couldn't get lilo working on GPT, so I had to reformat to MBR.

I never had anything like that in the links you gave. I had X freezes, where I could usually hit the power button once, and the computer would shutdown normally. If magic sysrq keys worked correctly, I could just use raw mode (the reboot magic combination never seemed to work). I also had many kernel oops from Divide Error, which would cause ksoftirqd to go 100% cpu until the computer froze a few minutes later. So if things seem laggy, I have a habit of checking to see if this is occurring, then I can restart normally before the crash.

All of these crashes haven't happened recently, however. The strangest thing I am seeing at the moment is Battery acpi signals, when there is no reason for why they should be triggered.

I also just ordered an atheros ar9382 to replace the wireless card. I may lose bluetooth, but I don't even have the relevant programs installed at the moment. I would say the wireless was okay while I had signal, but would go horrible when it got a little distance away.
I would like to know why it is not smartphone? I don't see the difference. As well I think I agree with you that in low end market design and quality is slipping because Nokia has to compete with cheap phones from China. Wikipedia article on your phone lists visible things that were done to lower the price of this phone (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_5800_XpressMusic#Price_Dr...). I'm more than sure that there are invisible ones as well. But as I have noted that says nothing about Nokia overall. If you want good Nokia phone buy good Nokia phone but not cheap one. You got what you paid for. That's like buying Toyota Yaris and complaining about lowering quality of Toyota cars overall.
This coupled with the ridiculous on-going property bubble, yet lack of affordable housing, sky-rocketing food prices, and other social and economic ills makes me wonder how the Politiburo and Party in general will act to control the situation. What is happening in all the massive, empty cities being built everyday is ridiculous and makes the USA's housing bubble look benign in comparison.

Thank you for the article, tokenadult. Quality translation as well.
Samsung manufactures that A4 iPhone core chip and the Galaxy's Cortex-A8 is its brother. If anything, the A4 is a stripped-down version of Samsung's S5 [1]. Samsung again gets to learn and implement tech improvements (this time from Apple) at little or no cost.

So let me get this straight. Samsung designs the S5, essentially assuming the bulk of the risk bringing the design to market, both for themselves and their clients (Apple). Apple licenses the design and then finds out that Samsung has been using these clever guys at Intrinsity to juice the Cortex-A8 in the design. Apple buys Intrinsity lock-stock-and-barrel, denying Samsung said cleverness for upcoming Cortex-A9 designs. And of course it's quite likely at this point that they'll be losing their biggest external customer for future SoCs (Apple).

And this is something other than a disaster for Samsung? Honestly, they've been completely outmaneuvered.

Seeing how he and the guy he hacked are both on gmail, I would guess that this might be a case of "mjfoo is the same as m.j.foo", or a gmail account that had been deleted before, but is still associated with a Paypal account. Paypal exist because of fraud detection and working security. If they had singe stupid bug like unescaped wildcards or something, that would be quite a shadow cast on their one main selling point.
thanks for your reply. I will check couchDB website. I never heard of them before.
At least no one can say that PayPal is ever lax on security. This vulnerability, if it exists, could be more of an honest developer mistake.

I was recently travelling abroad, and decided to buy Glyphish icons to finish an app I was working on. This proved to be tough. Upon logging in to my PayPal account, I got locked out.

"We want to check with you to make sure that no one has logged in to your account without your permission."

My account now states that it is "limited" and has some drivel about me having to send my driver license/passport/etc. copies to re-enable my account. I understand that this is all in the name of security, but really, I wish they didn't use such heavy-handed one-size-fits-all measures.
I mean absolutely no disrespect to you here, but it's remarkably poor judgement to cite your bio and resume on this site in particular. While you were attending school, I was writing a variable interpolaters in COBOL (a language without strings) -- and I would usually never mention that here, because someone's going to show up that makes me look like the amateur that I am. Your experience is also very heavy in the marketing field, which makes it reasonable to conclude that you might not have had to deal directly with the effects of the business tactics that the giants used (and are still using). Quite a large number of people here, on the other hand, have a much more personal memory of the ruthlessness of the I.T. field. You are Stef Murky, speaking to a rather large crowd of Gregs and Pitrs.

That said: I read your post as though you were making a larger point that it's a strategic business error to focus on "taking down" a competitor, and that's probably usually true, and a good thing to remind people sometimes.

Unfortunately for the rest of the content of your post, it somewhat misses that Apple was referring to IBM in their 1984 commercial; that Apple was publicly mocking Microsoft in the early 90s before a lawsuit made them cooperate, at last, by bringing Office to the Mac; or, for more recent examples, that Google is working hard to depose Apple in the smartphone market or that Apple has its sights set on Amazon with their cloud offerings or ...

It's generally a good idea to focus on your product or service, not your competitor, but pointing to big, successful I.T. companies is not the way to make that point.
I just did this, but it tells me they cannot close the account because there's a transaction open. I bought a domain yesterday. This is with the German paypal, and a German bank, which are known to be the among the most retrograde and cumbersome. Does anyone have a workaround?
I totally agree, could be like formspring.
Port Safety Matters to Your Business
When you are in the process of choosing a marine port in Orange, TX it’s important to keep safety in mind. There are various port features you need to look for and safety should be near or at the top of your list. The port needs to offer the ship and crew a safe and secure berth for as long as the ship is in port.

The only thing I disagree with in this article is Arrington's assertion that "the issue of illegal immigration over our Southern border must be separated from the issue of immigration of people who want to come here to build companies."

I don't really see why we need to separate those issues. They are the same issue. We should discard isolationist policies in both cases and move toward a more enlightened policy in both cases.

After all, one can't always tell with certainty which immigrants are the "good" immigrants and which are the "bad" ones, in advance.
Anonymous Hackers hit 50 Malaysian government websites
I don't agree with your definition of government. If people agree peacefully to adhere to a set of rules, they have effectively formed a government, too.

"Just let people run their course without initiating aggression against each other, and they will fix the world's problems."

But that is just what is so silly about Lomborg & Co. Obviously people running free do not fix the world's problems. They form dictatorships, exploit resources, fight wars and so on. Your condition of "peacefully" does not work out - people are not peaceful. In an utopia where people would be peaceful somehow it might work, but we don't live in such an utopia. And frankly I doubt such an utopia would ever exist, but that is for another discussion.

We seem to agree that only property management seems to solve the tragedy of the commons problem, except that you think markets create properties and I claim governments (or agreements of people) create properties. But how then do you suppose to solve the tragedy of the commons in our modern world? Air and sea pollution - how do you want to solve that, without all the governments in the world agreeing on property rules for those things? And that is not a market thing.

As for the elephants, how do the property owners defend against the poachers? I strongly suspect guns are involved.

Also, what are you supposed to do if you don't have an elephant farm? Just be consent with being poor? Poaching of elephants could probably be solved by giving everybody an elephant farm. But there aren't enough elephants to go round - and that is a fundamental problem of the human condition. There is not enough stuff to go around.

I think even if we could produce enough food and iPads for everyone, that problem would not go away. For example attractive mates might always remain a limited resource.
