Science and Information / If a driverless car crashes, who should be held liable?

« on: March 11, 2013, 04:19:57 PM »

If a driverless car crashes, who should be held liable?


One possible solution comes from the vaccine industry.

In the 1980s, the rising threat of liability prompted vaccine manufacturers to pull out of the business. So Congress stepped in and created a new system for people who are injured by vaccines. Cases are handled in special hearings, and victims are paid out of a fund created by a special tax on vaccines.

With the threat of liability reduced, more companies started making vaccines again.

Science and Information / What makes password strong!

« on: January 19, 2013, 09:25:40 AM »

Many people and my students asked me that what kind of password they should have for their Email accounts or for their social networking sites. Here, in this article i want to share you what kind of criteria you must have while you are giving your password. But before that lets have a laughing session. Here are some fun facts:

A boy will be having password like Bike’s Number, Car’s Number , his Girl Friends Name or her cell no . So its very easy to guess this kind of password if you know the guy a bit. Second max people who comes under email hacking are business man and mostly married people who are having their passwords like Wife’s Name, iluvmywife, Name of their children. Most of the students give their mobile number as their password.

Well I suggest you should have a complex password or robust password.
Criteria you should have while you are generating password or should be combination of

1) Capital Letter - eg. A,C,V,J
2) Small Letter -eg. w,t,y
3) Number - eg. 1,6,7,8
4) Some Special Character - eg. !,&,*,%

Complex Password :- *&@M!T&*
Robust Password:- *ilmip4* [* i luv my iphone 4 *] this is a best password which is difficult to guess bcoz at first look it has no meaning.

If you are unable to make a complex or robust password then you can try this website http://makemeapassword.net/. Its great website to check the complexity of the password.

So we can directly copy the file to the dropbox folder. And on another computer it will be automatically downloaded. If we want to download the file on computer on which dropbox is not installed. We can download it by logging to the dropbox account by visiting dropbox website.
