I think this is an issue of serious interest to many of the subscribers of these lists; it would effectively ban a lot of security-related tools that many of use now find indispensable, e.g. ssh, pgp. ------- Start of forwarded message ------- Date: 21 Mar 1997 10:11:57 GMT From: rja14@cl.cam.ac.uk (Ross Anderson) Approved: R.E.Wolff@BitWizard.nl Subject: DTI proposals on key escrow The British

Hi List, I recently signed up with Voxbone to get some International DIDs. I was just about to purchase a DID this morning... but when I went to get it.... voxbone wanted the end user's address information. So I started to put it in... unfortunately... the end-user is in the U.S....but the only options are for a few select cities in GERMANY! I don't understand. Is there some

Dear R list, I have an event history data set that is structured like this: Legislative act Discussion Agreement Time Event Act1 2006-05-30 2006-06-19 20 1 Act2 2004-03-01 2004-06-14 105 1 . . . I have information on the meetings in the legislature between adoption periods in a separate vari...

...customer-support staff make outbound calls with a Caller ID that may be from one of many possible clients. More troubling is the possibility that Caller ID may be used to trick unsuspecting call recipients into certain actions or beliefs, and it is this concern that's currently creating a legislative threat I believe must be averted. ... Congress is currently considering legislation titled The Truth in Caller ID Act, which certainly sounds noble. Who doesn't want correct Caller ID when receiving a call? The truth is that this bill is redundant--the Wire Fraud Act already covers this...

I'm wanting to perform analysis (e.g. using eigen()) of binary matrices - i.e. matrices comprising 0s and 1s. For example: n<-1000 test.mat<-matrix(round(runif(n^2)),n,n) eigen(test.mat,only.values=T) Is there a more efficient way of setting up test.mat, as each cell only requires a binary digit? I imagine R is setting up a structure which could contain n^2 floats. Thanks in advance

...sponding previous bodies. Chief Justice Paul de Jersey who presided over the 1995 case of Ross Farrah, a paranoid schizophrenic, who after murdering his girlfriend, Christine Nash, was allowed out of the John Oxley Centre to play sport and see movies, says the proposed legislative changes to the Mental Health Act appear to be "refinements". Two weeks ago, Nash's teenage son Wade committed suicide after suffering years of torment following his mother's murder. In May 1996, a letter was sent to the tribunal by now former director...

Also a community based, Freenet style of encryption implementation for "free" VoIP traffic would address this issue. I raise this to the list because I'm sure there's a grain of

The laws already exist: Disturbing the peace, Misappropriation of public funds, Prohibition on unfunded mandates. What's lacking is prosecutors, judges, and juries who see the politicians as getting in the way of the statesmen and the people. To drag this back towards On Topic, it seems to me that the ntp folks might be petitioned to write up and submit to the Congress, a paper

I would like to run a for loop with an index going from 0 to 499 but the following seems to miss out the first value: C <- 499 for (i in 0:C) The alternative is: C <- 500 for (i in 1:C) { #Then every time I use i, I replace it with i-1 } Is this a good way to do it or is tere a better way?

My students are working with several SPSS dataset provided by the European Social Survey. If you register your name, you can download it too. This is the 2004 data, for example: http://ess.nsd.uib.no/ess/round2/ I cannot give you the European Survey dataset, but you can download it for free if you like, and then you could run these commands to re-produce this weird pattern described below.

I am having problems getting my 64-bit Debian Squeeze (Xen version 4.0, Linux Kernel 2.6.32) dom0 to recognize a harddrive connected to a secondary sata controller. My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA-X79-UP4 and has two sata controllers. The first is controlled by an Intel X79 chipset and the second is controlled by a Marvell 88SE9172 chip. During the initial install of Debian everything is fine and

Good day When trying to add an 'Other Locations' in Nautilus CentOS 7.5, Nautilus always 100% of the time crash with a kernel error. Here is a short video showing the workflow: https://youtu.be/dPmTDBRqL_I This did not happen in 7.4 Both 7.4 and 7.5 runs on VirtualBox 5.2.12 - but as stated before, this did not happen in 7.4 I also did a fresh clean install of both

Hi there. I have been plotting some circles using 'symbols', with radii representing my data, but the radii looked incorrect. It seems to happen with a single circle too: Symbols ( 0, 0, circles = 40, xlim = c(-40, 40), ylim= c(-40, 40)) If I put a ruler up to my monitor (technology!) to compare the radius with the axes, the circle isn't radius 40; it is closer to 15... I

Hi, I'm looking for some feedback on pain points people have with FileCheck in terms of missing features to help people interested in working on FileCheck to prioritize the work accordingly. I am personally interested in improving FileCheck on 2 issues whenever time permits it: * being able to test for consecutive lines in arbitrary order, i.e. something akin to CHECK-DAG blocks where
