Okay, this is NOT what I expected when I clicked on the link. With all the crazy MS news lately, I honestly thought they were putting out a competitor to Logic Studio with a full SDK.
I'd like to say that means performers but I'm sure it's intentionally vague in the document -- security clearance applications are big on screening for potential things that you could be blackmailed or bribed for. Extensive debt, gambling, and drug use are all on the form. http://www.military.com/veteran-jobs/security-clearance-jobs...
I went thru the process (a long time ago) and if you worked in pr0n (although I did not) an excellent way to fail a security check would be trying something like hiding your past employment from a hard core evang fundamentalist C.O. or something similar to that. Theoretically leading to an enemy agent blackmailing you to keep your past quiet if only you'll give him a photocopy of some document or a password or whatever. But if you already told security you were a sysadmin at nude-hackernews-posters.com or whatever then it would be REALLY hard to blackmail you about something that's already public knowledge...
If this line applies to the issue, you're OK: "The behavior no longer serves as a basis for coercion, exploitation, or duress."
Yes, the company does and will. But there are managers who won't. Same thing in defense - you can still get clearance but considering how many in the industry are Mormon you decrease your chances of being hired.
Just do a quick search on Mormons and nsa, cia, fbi. They are over represented. Perhaps you didn't even know? And it's no secret that Air Force command is extremely religious.
The CIA and FBI do have recruitment programs for Mormon graduates, as they value the language skills and their abstinence from alcohol, drugs etc. And while they may be over-represented proportionally, they don't run the show of course. Most of the sources I have seen take the few hard numbers available and do a lot of speculation on the top.
Could you elaborate on this? I'm not familiar with Bittorrent's protocol. Can a regular HTTP server (say, nginx) be used as a web seed without any software in front of it translating the Bitorrent protocol requests into a regular HTTP request?
The trick is that the client has been modified to read the URLs in the .torrent file and to construct the appropriate range requests for getting pieces from the web seed.
"In real-world encounters, many variables affect time, which is the key component of the 21-Foot Rule. What is the training skill and stress level of the officer? How fast and agile is he? How alert is he to preliminary cues to aggressive movement? How agile and fast is the suspect? Is he drunk and stumbling, or a young guy in a ninja outfit ready to rock and roll? [...continues for a while...]"
I'm not sure what point you are trying to make. In our example, none of these questions about the suspect are known. So the officers have to assume that this attacker can (and in fact, he was in the process of).
If the website has an API, just use it directly. If not...
Load up the website in question, open your browser's debug tools' network tab, and perform each action that you'd like to be able to programatically do. Record the destination host/path, request type, and all the params that can be sent to it. Then, implement a function in your language of choice for each action that you want to be able to do (some actions require multiple requests).
Package up the functions into a class/library/whatever and extract out common functionality. Then post it on HN for lots of karma and feedback.
For a simple starter task, create an account on http://www.nationstates.net and write a bot which logs in each day and randomly picks a choice for each decision you are asked to make for your country.
Even easier way to log requests is to use something to man-in-the-middle your own connection, like MITMProxy (which, coincidentally, is written in Python).
I've used it a lot to unearth APIs and make programs that utilize them.
