    XKeyscore: NSA tool collects 'nearly everything a user does on the internet'

    Boston - disagree - it is a total failure lets admit it. To regain some credibility they go after innocent people and shake grandmas at airports. It is just media stunt. They cannot catch determined criminal or terrorist. It is incompetence and waste of money. Mostly it is used for politics and...

    What can you do as a proficient programmer?

    There is a lot of competition from around the world in the programming space. Most big companies outsource lots of tedious programming work to countries that pay much less for the same work. Since programming is very time consuming they need large groups of programmers working on the same...

    IP Addresses (forum posts) confidential??

    I think that guy was referring to electromagnetic field generated by CRT tube that could be used to read screen from proximity location and not software. That is why he talks about led shield (I guess that would have to be Faraday cage but I am not that good in physics). My question is if...

    What are the rules of your trading system?
