    If you write it at home in your spare time you are not allowed to post it on CP?!? :confused:

    :-D exactly. Otherwise I could be giving out company sensitive information on the side. :)

      The subject came up again today at work over parallel programming. Others here have encouraged me to write an article, and although I have argued against it because of the difficult with work. I am tired of having to explain the concepts over and over again one person at a time. The question is, do I do it as an internal white paper only (all the writing, none of the review) only for people at work, or do I write for public access as well? So are there already too many articles on threading? I have rarely seen people talk about atomic operations, massively parallel, cooperatively asynchronous operation, and lock-free programming. But the better question is, does anyone really care? I can easily do it internal only for my team, and maybe other teams at other similar facilities, but if the subject is really desirable, maybe it needs to be wider?

      Certain authors are enjoyable to read even if the subject matter isn't immediately applicable. I'd read it :D

        But if it has nothing to do with your company? Following this rule one could also state that you could reveal company sensitive information by posting here or in any other forum. Think about it: By posting the restrictions made by your company you are already giving out information... Robert

          The defense industry errs on the side of paranoia on these sorts of things. If you find the restrictions unacceptable you're free to seek employment elsewhere in the private sector.

            It wasn't meant as an offense. I'm just curious where this restriction ends. Is he allowed to post recipes on CookProject.com? Or is he allowed to answer threading related questions in the programming forums? :confused:

                not really, under new regs that could remove profit from a Denny's that has a recipe for Pancakes... my grandfather made the best pancakes in the world, but if I tell that recipe someone could be making a profit -- but even if they are not, if there is the potential for a knowledge that I have (my grandfather's pancake recipe), that "could" make a profit, then it should not be released. It all depends on who is on the approval process at the time. I have heard at least one quote say that if the approval team had their way, no one would write anything anywhere to anyone at anytime. But they do recognize that would be impossible to handle, so this is the solution middle-ground.
