. What if Blogger indicates an archving error but in fact everything was generated properly?
Yay! More FUD
from the Military-Intelligence community in the US: Feds Say Fidel Is Hacker Threat. They also manage to work in the “evil Islamic terrorists are using crypto and stego” angle. Declan McCullagh must have had to shower after wading through that crap.
Steven Johnson weighs
in on the election two weeks hence: “[…] after all of this, there will be only one indisputable fact about the Florida vote: The margin of error was larger than the margin of victory.”
I almost missed
Steven Johnson’s additional comments about his Times piece, Go With Fuzzy Logic, in Feed’s ‘Loop’ discussion area. Due to an ampersand in the URL I can’t make the direct link, but head on over and take a look. “According to Florida election officials, punch card machines had 32 errors per 1,000 votes, while the OpScan devices had only 2. As I said in the piece, the real question is: which counties are using punch cards, and which are using OpScan.”
There’s either a blogger
error or another attempt at bloggerite meme–propogation starting.
