And such a brilliant ending! Love the curator! (No spoilers for those that haven't seen it!) Deja vu the Lernaean Hydra.-IainB (August 28, 2014, 10:08 AM)
Jon Pertwee for me.
BTW, if you're going to have Paul McGann in the list, you need to include John Hurt.-4wd (October 18, 2014, 01:54 AM)
I just took the main series Doctors from here:

I didn't consider the others as I didn't figure anyone would bother there.
But, there are quite a few others as well. The list really would have been toooo long.-Renegade (October 18, 2014, 02:23 AM)
John Hurt is the only other person who portrayed The Doctor, (in the series), and as such is probably more valid as an entrant than Paul McGann.
The only other person who portrayed The Doctor that I'm aware of is Peter Cushing - that was for two films.
So your list is only short by two names.-4wd (October 18, 2014, 04:06 AM)

I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic or not...-Renegade (October 16, 2014, 07:27 AM)
ofcourse not! we are in a technology forum and I can't believe people are so much afraid of technological advancements!-kalos (October 16, 2014, 08:46 AM)
Technology is never the answer. It's a tool, like any other, and we as people that are on a technology forum must have a much greater scrutiny of the uses and abuses of such things, IMO. That old chestnut about when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail? That applies to technology, also.
It's very easy to fall into as a developer- using the latest features of development platforms just because it's cool. But that makes a bad developer, and a client that's not well served.
This technology is not ready for prime-time. That's the only thing we're saying. Not that it will never be. But that it's not currently. And Google agrees. And Elon Musk seems to agree. So what's so wrong with us applying our scrutiny and agreeing? Because it seems pretty obvious to me that it has a long way to go before its ready- and that it shouldn't be the default state until it is ready, and that the standards should be a lot higher than for a human driver.-wraith808 (October 16, 2014, 10:20 AM)

Elon Musk: We'll Have Driverless Cars By 2023
Elon Musk is gunning to put autonomous cars on the road by 2023.
The D series of Tesla's Model S sedan, unveiled last week, features an autopilot function, but it's limited. The electric carmaker’s chief executive said last Friday that self-driving technology will outpace the skill of human drivers in five to six years, however.
“I think we’ll be able to achieve true autonomous driving, where you could literally get in the car, go to sleep and wake up at your destination,” Musk said in an interview with Bloomberg TV’s Betty Liu.
But he warned that it would take regulators another two to three years to approve the autonomous cars for use in public.
“I want to make sure that it’s truly a lot safer than driving with a person,” Musk said. “The standard for fully autonomous driving is going to be much greater than for a person, because if it’s just equivalent that won’t be enough.”
The company first demonstrated its autopilot feature at a glitzy media event outside Los Angeles last Thursday.
Well of course I'd have revised my brilliant plan over the years... And dangit-all! When I updated Adobe PDF Maker/Microsoft Word it saved it in a new format that changed the hash! And when I opened the file on Linux it changed the line endings, too!
But I swear it was all in the document I hashed 5 years ago! Promise!-Deozaan (October 16, 2014, 01:49 AM)
But the hash still proves nothing about the document other than that it existed. I could make a blank txt file called SuperGeniusIdea.txt and put the hash in the blockchain and then when I want to sue Apple for bajillions for infringing on my patent, I could just point to that hash and say, "SEE! I hashed my document on the blockchain years ago!"
So I still don't see the point in this service.-Deozaan (October 16, 2014, 01:35 AM)

As the POODLE vulnerability is actually in the protocol itself, this isn't something that can be patched out like ShellShock and HeartBleed.
