Religion / Re: When Will The Jews Accept Jesus? by Dolapoinus: 2:50am On Jun 07, 2010
Why would you expect the jews to believe in Jesus? They have some very legitimate reasons not to.

Jews do not accept Jesus as the messiah because:

1. Jesus did not fulfill the messianic prophecies.
2. Jesus did not embody the personal qualifications of the Messiah.
3. Biblical verses "referring" to Jesus are mistranslations.
4. Jewish belief is based on national revelation.

Programming / Re: Nigerian Ethical Hackers In Here ---> by Dolapoinus: 6:01am On Jun 05, 2010
It's good to see that we haveĀ  so many eager people willing to advance the country of Nigeria. However, all enthusiasm without a plan or even a well defined goal is useless. Now, I feel that the most important security problem of Nigeria is the 419 scam. Not that we fall for it, but it gives us a bad name.

One of my friends and bad backside hacker Daniel Franke came up with a possible solution. It seems feasible and I have in fact done some work implementing it in Python. You can read his proposal here (http://dfranke.us/pfs.html). Imagine such a system, and better yet if it was written by us Nigerians. Please note that he is a westerner so at times his tone is a bit condescending, not to Nigerians in general but to the scammers (lads).

I feel that as a community we can make this something amazing. And to anyone interested in learning more about programming to help the cause I seriously suggest picking up Python. It's open source, simple, and powerful. You can find it at python.org (NOT Python.com) as well as tutorials and documentation.

Let's show them what we can do :]

Two side notes; first of all why does it look like so few people bother to type legibly on here. Is that just the board's culture? How can we expect to be taken seriously if we can't even spell.

I'm also wondering why the 18+ age limit. It seems arbitrary and ill defined. I'm 15 and a reasonably proficient coder. Age has little to do with it. It's more about drive and motivation.
