- JosephRedfern 9y agoBoth the linked PDF and the archive.org PDF were downloading quite slowly for me -- I've uploaded a copy here which (for the time being) should be reasonably quick: http://lithium.redfern.me/pocorgtfo15.pdf http://lithium.redfern.me/pocorgtfo15.pdf

- TeMPOraL 9y agoTo those who know how to use IPFS - how do I make it so that my computer mirrors those files with this hash?
- diggan 9y agoRun this command while the IPFS daemon is running: $ ipfs pin add QmcLWK1R4KK7mDwSDwAm5Ny5gs185vgMpXbnbWbxp44Dvm It'll start downloading and then seed about 700 MB of data as long as you have the daemon running.
- ESultanik 9y agoThere's also a Gopher mirror, because of course there is. gopher://firusvg.no-ip.org:7070/
- Quiark 9y agoI also made a mirror of the PDF on IPFS (BitTorrent is soooo 2000's) QmNsMdUqiSy8dQ1pNxGL2CVvZXDaNY9Lu53HRKKoYZNM7w

- zellyn 9y agoApparently, the PDF is _also_ it's own git repo. (This is normal for POC||GTFO.)
- TeMPOraL 9y agoNot the main PDF. If you unzip (!) the main PDF, you get the copy of the "Git as PDF" article in its own separate file (PDFGitPolyglot.pdf), and that latter file you can use as a git repo. $ git clone PDFGitPolyglot.pdf testrepo Cloning into 'testrepo'... Receiving objects: 100% (432/432), 622.40 KiB | 0 bytes/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (270/270), done. Within the repo you can find the raw PDF, and all the source files for that PDF (including .tex article) and scripts for turning it into a git repo.
- AckSyn 9y agoI've never seen this done before, and I'm in awe.
- CiPHPerCoder 9y agoWhen zellyn said this is normal for PoC||GTFO, they weren't kidding. https://www.alchemistowl.org/pocorgtfo/ https://www.alchemistowl.org/pocorgtfo/ (Click "Spoiler" for some of the old ones)

- philipov 9y agoWhen they thought of the name, I wonder if any thought was given to the alternate reading of PoC as "People of Color"
- CiPHPerCoder 9y agoPoC has stood for "Proof of Concept" for a long time, so probably not. It is amusing to read it as "People of Color || GTFO" as a statement demanding racial equality in companies' hiring practices.
- wpietri 9y agoIts use for "people of color" goes back to at least 2004: http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=poc http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=poc
- deleted 9y ago[deleted]
- moyix 9y agoThe use of the term Proof of Concept goes back to at least 1984: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_concept#Usage_history https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_of_concept#Usage_history I'm less clear on when PoC came into vogue, but I think it was likely in the 90s. Edit: Actually, reading more carefully, you can find "proof of concept" at least as far back as 1967.
- TeMPOraL 9y agoDifferent communities, different dialects. I suppose this journal doesn't come from the community that would read "PoC" as "People of Color".
- jameskegel 9y agoI think Proof of Concept predates your genre of terminology
- j_s 9y agoNo Starch Press is taking orders for a limited print edition. https://www.nostarch.com/gtfo https://www.nostarch.com/gtfo Estimated availability August 2017 Consistent with the journal's quirky, biblical style, this book comes with all the trimmings: a leatherette cover, ribbon bookmark, bible paper, and gilt-edged pages. The book features more than 80 technical essays from numerous famous hackers https://twitter.com/billpollock/status/874403109677748226 https://twitter.com/billpollock/status/874403109677748226
- iOSGuy 9y agoIs anyone besides No Startch selling this? I refuse to order from them anymore. :/
- durkie 9y agobased on...?

- zeitg3ist 9y agoIt seems like a beautiful edition, I'd like to buy it. However, shipping to Europe costs almost as much as the actual book (25$). Are there other sites that sell it? My local Amazon usually has most No Starch books in stock, but I can't find this one.
- semi-extrinsic 9y agoFWIW, anyone shipping single books from the US to Europe will have roughly the same shipping price; for sure you won't find any under $20, unless some European web store has ordered a few hundred copies for redistribution.
- mentat 9y agoThey're distributing at DEFCON if you know anyone going.
- philh 9y ago(0x15 suggests the 21st or 22nd issue, but the intro says it's only the sixteenth.) edit: title's been fixed, this is no longer relevant
- ESultanik 9y agoWe number with BCD in honor of the HP48 calculator's floating point implementation, which matches decimal rounding errors. 0x0A, &c., are reserved for special issues in the future ;-)

- TeMPOraL 9y ago> "Technical Note: This file, pocorgtfo15.pdf, is valid as PDF document and as a ZIP file of the relevant source code. Those of you who have laser projection equipment supporting the ILDA standard will find that this issue can be handily projected by your laser beams." So this file is a PDF that's also a ZIP, and the archive contains - among other things - a song in MP3, and another PDF that's also a Git repo. Oh, and the whole bundle is supposedly laser-projector-compatible (that fact I can't verify - I have no access to such equipment). I love this <3.
- alltakendamned 9y agoAs you have a newfound love for file polyglots, have a look at this talk by Ange Albertini, one of the people behind PoC||GTFO https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdCs6bPM4is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdCs6bPM4is
- modeless 9y agoHas anyone ever been able to make a polyglot executable file that runs on Windows, Linux, and macOS? (Without cheating by adding a PE loader to Linux or anything like that)
- FreakLegion 9y agoAll of those file types use header magic (if for macOS you mean Mach-O), so you can't combine them. For macOS containers (app bundle, DMG), though, you might be able to, depending on how strict the OS is about having random data prepended to the container. But that still won't let you combine PE and ELF.
- modeless 9y agoTrue, but Linux executes some things that aren't ELF and Windows executes tons of things that aren't PE. I wish someone would come up with something, because how awesome would it be to be able to distribute a single executable for all desktop platforms?
- semi-extrinsic 9y agoThe good pastor Laphroaig preaches: If the 0day in your familiar pastures dwindles, despair not! Rather, bestir yourself to where programmers are led astray from the sacred Assembly, neither understanding what their programming languages compile to, nor asking to see how their data is stored or transmitted in the true bits of the wire. For those who follow their computation through the layers shall gain 0day and pwn, and those who say “we trust in our APIs, in our proofs, and in our memory models and need not burden ourselves with confusing engineering detail that has no scientific value anyhow” shall surely provide an abundance of 0day and pwnage sufficient for all of us.
- module0000 9y agoDid anyone else read PoC as point of control? The IT seems to be draining out of my immediate mindset. edit: added link to what I thought PoC was in this context: https://marketdelta.com/how-to-plot-and-trade-naked-pocs-point-of-control/ https://marketdelta.com/how-to-plot-and-trade-naked-pocs-poi...
- loopbit 9y ago"Trade naked PoCs"... Not sure exactly what it is but it sounds dirty. ;)
- module0000 9y agoNaked PoC's mean that if there was a particular price in a stock/future/whatever that had more volume done at it than any other price for the day...it's "naked" the next day until the price returns to it. EG... if today APPL traded at $105 for more shares than any other price, and tomorrow the price is $106, we would say the naked PoC is $105 until it was revisited.
