This is awesome; am ordering a dongle right away! Did some digging and there's a whole load of things which can potentially be picked up, including dead satellites [0]. RTL-SDR.com has a whole load of awesome looking tutorials [1]. [0]

"Distribution on demand ... Configurations are not pushed to the environments but fetched by them". To me this means this is not a distributed configuration system, but a centralised one distributed clients read from. I quickly sc

From what I understand this isn't distributed, but clients pull from it? Docs don't mention anything about multi-server deployments...

Fascinating account on the rise and subsequent collapse of Zynga. Given what was said, and as the author pointed out, why the hell is Pincus back and Don out? Some very strange goings on over there... edit: it's nice to see them output

Does anyone else think 11B is insane? Higher valued than Dropbox and Airbnb? They must have pitched hell of a monetisation plan.

As well as the teardown, the disclaimer is pretty interesting too: > We love the FBI. We've worked with them on several occasions to fight crime and locate criminals. We've helped them with instructions on gaining entry into ce

Unbelievable, absolutely disgraceful, I have no words. The entire justice system of Ferguson should be closed down with immediate effect, as it appears corrupt & racist from the police on the street through to the courts.

Kind of scary, but would need successful execution to be really bad. I really like the idea of sandbox analysis, as well as the challenge of writing a program which can detect when running in-sandbox :)

After reading the article I spent the last half hour looking deeper into the Yakuza. It's quite amazing just how integrated they are into Japanese society, that they have a strong, highly respected morale code and the way they are semi

I work in an open office and it's certainly got a fair share of ups & downs. It makes for a more sociable office resulting in a stronger 'team' feel. However, the music/noise/chatter force me to wear headphones

This post speaks hits the spot - a perfect rundown of the (broken) SSL experience. Why do we still live in an age where security & identity are so tightly bound that to "secure" a site, you have to pay someone to "valid

This, self-taught as well starting with PHP and their docs (with examples and user-added examples) are the best I've seen. I've also noticed a lot more packages (npm mostly) with synopsis sections which essentially forms a 'f

I will use Firefox when a single tab can't cause the entire browser to pause. Until then, for better or worse, Chrome wins. EDIT: Would much prefer Opera if it supported all my Chrome extensions.

Despite this it does allow apple to enable customers to choose by turning bluetooth on/off, and not forcing them to disable wifi to avoid tracking (am I a minority that have bluetooth off by default?).

When I got to the bit about being arrested I was completely baffled... there's a law against this? I'm from the UK and as a child was left in the car for short periods, which is almost certainly commonplace. I'm simply stunne
