Andrew Bridges Favorite Techdirt Posts Of The Week
my favorite set of the week is "war against Computing" comment, this is not exactly a unique story, but a comment, inspired by Cory Doctorow, by theme we see that the old laws or uninformed legislators not to follow the state of technology, security and communication. Some of these laws are similar to the prohibition of certain steps of the scientific method, or process of peer review. Chemin difficult to learn and improve systems, some of the greatest advances in technology resulting from improper use of an existing system. should not be the Wild West, but we able to manage that laws reflect current technology with reasonable consequences that reflect the prejudice and intent. calculation of War: What happens when the authorities do not understand the technology

PDJ Portable Disc Jockey is a complete DJ system that fits in your pocket, we go hands-on (video)
We will forgive the nice people behind the DPJ when they say that the first fully autonomous mobile DJ set-up. But that does not mean that there is nothing new in this - in fact, there are many. The DPJ is a rectangular plate of creative optimism refreshing. At each end is a touch screen that displays a virtual deck, and in the center there is a small section of mixing and FX. Therefore, the DPJ is already familiar in the configuration for all the DJ picks (something that the coach can not argue with its own interface). The mixer section rotary volume effects and additional features (see below). Most importantly, however, is integrated into the audio interface which means you can control the headphone mix before releasing them into the world. Which distinguishes it from almost all mobile applications out there that in the best case, requires the use of an audio splitter (at the expense of sound). Of course, you need some music to play, and there are 2 GB of internal memory that allows you to do just that. If that is not enough, or if you want to upload your latest jams immediately, there is a SD card slot that allows you to do just that (up to 32GB). Beyond the helmet, there is an output line for connection to an audio system, and an input line and an external microphone to add audio to the whole. The brochure says it offers 12 hours of battery too - mini USB rechargeable. On the software side, both decks respond to touch and control buttons (for cue / play / pause). Besides the virtual deck, there sample and player screens at once. We left the DPJ NAMM legs here, so we broke past fade impressions.
HP Wasn't Going To Let A Little Fraud Stand In The Way Of Acquiring Autonomy
story about how Hewlett-Packard "missed an opportunity to get away" from the acquisition of autonomy - HP now believe that a lot of revenue recognition fraud and took millions and millions of dollars of write-downs - but this description of the process of approval of the Board of the case is all you need to know the following:Lots to do in the recent Wall Street Journal
- HP ?? administration and autonomy Bankers calculate how much money is necessary to add 10 years to justify the price. Autonomy trajectory will not be achieved. The agreement requires making more revenue growth as a result of the alliance assumed HP acquisition, people familiar with the matter. But managers believed they could make the numbers.
- Calculations are performed without knowledge of the alleged fraud, but who cares? Here, roughly, the thought processes of HP:
- Applications
- price for independence is X
Autonomy DCF is the value of Y based on revenue growth expected, but no synergies
Well, but the value is Y DCF synergies with aggression regularGood, but ... although we could do another number Y
> = X looks good.
If you notice that the current figures are composed of income, while changes Y
but Y
not an AND input- the real value is that HP Autonomy - because that number was also do
"Synergies" was just an outlet for the equilibrium equation. Mathematics bankers in the logbook to approve the agreement was only to be soothing - Administration get nervous
if they can watch a football slideshow while approving a purchase - not affect the result. HP may be assumed to have rejected the offer had he known the income situation of the truth autonomy, because valuation numbers would not work, but it is an absurd hypothesis, because even using false- benefits did not work and did not reject the agreement.
It is too simplistic - much worse do anything for a bit, "oh you're such a massive fraud" is an excellent point to make in the negotiation of the sale price - but I which is the correct analysis. Usha Rodrigues wrote: "The die is cast in the acquisition of autonomy which the Council took Apotheker HP CEO" involved in an acquisition impact. "When you have a CEO who really wants to make a deal, and you really want to make an agreement, it is difficult to imagine that any accountant who came to him with something less boring technical subtlety that "this is phantom income" would cause more problems - for example, a banker who came to him with something less boring technical finesse.

The War On Computing: What Happens When Authorities Don't Understand Technology
that something should be illegal because they are trying to superimpose a vision analog in a digital world. For Swartz, used the famous Carmen Ortiz incredibly false and misleading "stealing is stealing" concept. However, as Cory Doctorow has recently been fond of pointing out, we are entering a war in general purpose computing, and it is just a front.
recent clashes Two others show the same kind of things that happen in slightly different contexts. A few months ago, we wrote about the case of Andrew Auernheimer, the security researcher who was convicted and is likely to face a long period of time in jail for exposing a security flaw in flagrant AT & T helped (and nobody: AT & T admitted at trial that "publish" data. His words. Public offering, the programmatic API access spend more than a billion times a day. Twitter erupted 13 billion of its API ages ago.

People with "disruptive" start-up, this is your warning: They're coming for you next.
) to collect personal data of the owners of iOS devices. Remember, AT & T has created some stupid security, making this information public through its own API. Now, on the verge of being condemned, Auernheimer asked to write a "statement of responsibility" of the court, and decided to make a blog in which you say aloud what a farce the whole situation is as follows:

Meanwhile, in Canada, it was discussed how the computer Dawson College students Ahmed Al-Khabaz was driven by the discovery of a security flaw in a system that is used by many Canadian universities to store personal data of students. In your case, part of the problem is that, after alerting people in the hole returned a few days to run a script to see if the hole had closed. This has made the company that manages the system to accuse him of criminal activity:
"was Edouard Cup, President of Skytech. Says it was the second time I had seen in his files, and what he did was a cyber attack. The I apologized several times and explained that it was one of those who discovered the vulnerability earlier this week and was just testing to make sure it is fixed. said I could go to prison for six to twelve months for what he had done and if I do not agree to meet and sign a non-disclosure agreement which might call the RCMP to arrest me. J ' So I signed the agreement. "
Even with the agreement, Dawson was expelled. While Dawson maintains its decision, the company said Skytech it is now proposed to hire part-time.
