The moment Google caved in to the first demands of the SJW, the company was doomed.

Once you have let that Genie out of the bottle, the is no turning back.

" We used to build roads from A to B. Now we construct transportation infrastructure with environmental, social, economic, and political impacts. "

Even the ancient Romans understood the social, economic, and political impact of the roads they built all over Europe.
We have always understood those things and as time goes forward so have we. Law professors study social impacts of passing new laws and how you can and can't change society by laws.

I get the feeling that the author isn't very well educated and then just had a epiphany he thought nobody had thought of before him.

Don't forget that about 20 years ago NSA was introducing flaws by exploiting bugs in the compilers.

I doubt a code-review would find any of these.

Iceland has been doing this since 1921 when the fist hydroelectric power plant was put in service.

That is about 9500 days Iceland has Powered Itself Using Only Renewable Energy.

Indeed, this looks interesting.

I will try it out.

Interesting concept and without a doubt very useful.

But there is no open source server-side yet.

RedPhone is only for Android although iPhone compatible version exists. But this is not what I was talking about.

The problem is that there is no telephony system that you can use cross-platform, that is open source and the clients are easy to install and use for the average user.

No other heavily-used protocols have this problem, FTP, HTTP, SMPT, DNS, Torrent, Cloud Storage, VPN, SSH all have cross-platform, free and open source clients that are easy to set up and use for the average user. Telephony is the handicapped service on the internet

The main problem, as I see it, is the SIP protocol and the design mistake of relying on IP addresses in the application layer.

One of the big pieces of the puzzle that needs to be solved is a replacement for the SIP protocol.

Almost no one has a public IP address directly on their workstation at home and it is preventing free open source telephone to be widely adopted.

What is needed is a telephony protocol that and can easily be proxied or tunneled and/or that does not need extra measurements for surviving NAT.

This only means that we still can't explain the "pause" in global warming. It does not mean that the model is based on "bad science".

The Quest for an explanation must continue.

... is using bash scripts to generate web content in 2014?

Look, there is a bug, obviously, but to say that it is "remotely exploitable" is a half-truth, and that it is "on level with or worse than heartbleed" is nonsense.

There are a lot of things that need to "line up" in order for this to be remotely exploitable.

Human rights for 100 points:

It is 2014 and anonymity is a crime, what country are we thinking of ?

There is also the possibility that the project was sabotaged by an external actor.

Maybe it is a coincidence but the one who profits the most from this failure is the same as has been working hard during the last 10 years to get rid of the Galileo program and is also the same nation as is known for being the most technically capable in electronic warfare/hacking.

Am I correct in that this is *the* Cryengine, which was developed between 2001 and 2004?
