Apparently, Hakin9 magazines peer-review process could use some work: http://www.theregister.co.uk/2012/10/05/hakin9_silliness/ An article was submitted which disclosed that: "The software engineering approach to NMAP is defined not only by the investigation of RPCs, but also by the practical need for Lamport clocks. The notion that cyberneticists interfere with RPCs is generally well- received. In fact, few biologists would dis-agree with the improvement of A* search, which embodies the technical principles of theory. Obviously, event-driven modalities and web browsers are based entirely on the assumption that extreme programming and digital-to-analog converters are not in conflict with the deployment of massive multiplayer online role-playing games." This is, of course, like the rest of the article, complete nonsense. If you'd like to pour through the rest of the article to see if they left any sense in there anywhere, it's at http://nmap.org/misc/hakin9-nmap-ebook-ch1.pdf ("Microcode updates to the CPU"?) ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) rslade () vcn bc ca slade () victoria tc ca rslade () computercrime org There is, in fact, no recognized principle by which the propriety or impropriety of government interference is customarily tested.
