Let's count the heads and the achievements and see how Grace Hopper is irrelevant.

But you should have thinked about that by yourself; another example of woman logic I guess.

"Why do men dominate the fields of science, engineering and mathematics?"

"Are intrinsic differences between the sexes responsible for the underrepresentation of women in mathematical and scientific disciplines ?"

I think so.

I think we agree here.

> I'm just speaking from my own experience, even if it is limited.

Me also, I have a friend who could have secured himself 5 GB of data from NATO withou hacking while working there. But he wouldn't have disclosed it.

By the looks of it, all those sensitive documents must already be in the hands of the chinese government by now.

NATO include forces in a lot of countries already. I'm saying a lot of them do poor jobs.

Are you saying they are so good that the data incriminated is either fake or a deliberate attempt at misinformation by Nato ?

Don't be delusional, there were/are obviously beaches which are not red herrings. And all that "classified nato secret", "not allowed on networks connected to the internet", "breach in protocols" and "strict rules" are BS.

But to say for sure, we would need a thorough analysis of the incriminated data.

It's not like a major breach of protocol is a very rare thing as all personels are not trained at security to say the least.

I'd bet those documents are pretty damn secret.

Re:The Engineer-Driven culture at Nokia and its problems on Saturday February 12, 2011 @08:18AM (#2209964)
Nokia is very good in the design of usable mobiles. Since they acquired Qt, they are also very good in software design. Apple is not a good example. This article makes no sense.
> It's about the attention to detail and ruthless application of quality in hardware build, software and UI.

Nokia is traditionally a leader in those fields for the low end market.

This comment seems to miss the fact that MeeGo development is probably doomed anyway.
