Cybersecurity Reality or Myth
Tags: NSA PRISM Daniel Ellsberg Big Data Redstate
But quietly over the past few months, several companies have been showing some of their cybersecurity staff the door, sources said, part of a growing recognition by the industry that while cyber is growing, it will never reach the scale of aircraft or ship programs.
“It’s the myth and reality of cyber,” said Roger Cressey, senior vice president at Booz Allen Hamilton. “The myth is that it’s the fastest growing capability around, that there is tremendous pent-up demand and it is a river of milk and honey for everyone, when the reality is that it’s not that. There are pockets of need, but there’s also a requirement for specialized skills and capabilities.”

Our Brands
Tags: Edward Snowden PRISM Microsoft Yahoo Facebook Big Data Redstate
Dear Attorney General Holder and Director MuellerGoogle has worked tremendously hard over the past fifteen years to earn our users’ trust. For example, we offer encryption across our services; we have hired some of the best security engineers in the world; and we have consistently pushed back on overly broad government requests for our users’ data.We have always made clear that we comply with valid legal requests. And last week, the Director of National Intelligence acknowledged that service providers have received Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) requests.Assertions in the press that our compliance with these requests gives the U.S. government unfettered access to our users’ data are simply untrue. However, government nondisclosure obligations regarding the number of FISA national security requests that Google receives, as well as the number of accounts covered by those requests, fuel that speculation.We therefore ask you to help make it possible for Google to publish in our Transparency Report aggregate numbers of national security requests, including FISA disclosures—in terms of both the number we receive and their scope. Google’s numbers would clearly show that our compliance with these requests falls far short of the claims being made. Google has nothing to hide.Google appreciates that you authorized the recent disclosure of general numbers for national security letters. There have been no adverse consequences arising from their publication, and in fact more companies are receiving your approval to do so as a result of Google’s initiative. Transparency here will likewise serve the public interest without harming national security.

The Uncivil Wars
Tags: Paul Krugman Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff Austerity Poal Ryan Redstate
Harvard professors Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff are accusing Paul Krugman of “spectacularly uncivil” behaviour.n normal times, an arithmetic mistake in an economics paper would be a complete nonevent as far as the wider world was concerned. But in April 2013, the discovery of such a mistake—actually, a coding error in a spreadsheet, coupled with several other flaws in the analysis—not only became the talk of the economics profession, but made headlines. Looking back, we might even conclude that it changed the course of policy.Why? Because the paper in question, “Growth in a Time of Debt,” by the Harvard economists Carmen Reinhart and Kenneth Rogoff, had acquired touchstone status in the debate over economic policy. Ever since the paper was first circulated, austerians—advocates of fiscal austerity, of immediate sharp cuts in government spending—had cited its alleged findings to defend their position and attack their critics. We were met with declarations that Reinhart and Rogoff had shown that waiting would be disastrous, that economies fall off a cliff once government debt exceeds 90 percent of GDP.“You have attacked us in very personal terms, virtually non-stop, in your New York Times column and blog posts,” the pair continued. “… Your characterization of our work and of our policy impact is selective and shallow. It is deeply misleading about where we stand on the issues. And we would respectfully submit, your logic and evidence on the policy substance is not nearly as compelling as you imply.”Reinhart and Rogoff

NOTE from JERRY: "On May 30th I hope to find out whether or not the initial indications of my being cancer-free are still true. A very detailed exam will be done by my doctors at St. John's Medical Center in Tulsa to determine this. If the readings are favorable then I expect to have my colon back as good as new. Within a week or so after the exam everything should be back to pre-operative condition, meaning I will have a new lease on life. Details of results will be displayed on this website. "Thank you for all your good wishes and prayers and for listening all these years." (jerry@jerrypippin.com) or : Jerry Pippin, PO Box 333, Muskogee OK 74402
