Agreed. What is holding a LOT of people back from doing even kind-hearted hacking (i.e. "grayhat" activities with the purpose of helping the victim) is the fact that a criminal record can break your career entirely. Bug bounty pro

I was honestly hoping for a little more considering the title is "Inside the JVM" and not "Basic data structures in Java". Oh well...

It's not often that the benefits QubesOS brings are what security companies (or the community) needs. If you do malware analysis, Windows VMs in isolation on a throw-away laptop is better. If you do penetration testing, Windows or regu

Ps: typically if you want to run VMs you are faced with two paths only: 1) you want one or more VMs on your personal computer or 2) you want one or more VMs in an office environment. On the first path you are likely going to be just fine wi

I don't know if _one_ such article exists, but here is a piece of tech doc from oVirt (yet another tool) that shows how - or that - VDSM is used by oVirt to communicate with QEMU through libvirt: https://www.ovirt.org/d

This reply is more thorough and wholesome that I'd imagine a reply to "poking excrements with a stick" could be - or should be.

If somebody tells me "you are wrong" i take it personally. If they tell me "this looks wrong" and explains why, they are not criticising me but my work, which might truly have been wrong. It's the difference betwee

I'm aware it's a different product and that the price is not the same, as was stated. An example of a price was given elsewhere of roughly NZD $8000, which isn't too far off the price of a pair of high-end in ear hearing aids

I believe the "cocleah system" is guaranteed to function for that long, yes. The part inside of you is very simplistic and doesn't do much (or anything) besides translating data into electrical signals. It's the unit on

The surgery is the expensive bit. It's a 10-to-1* kind of expense compared to the hearing device you attach to the head. * Rough guess based on the price of regular, high-end "in-the-ear-canal" hearing aids.

...and the manufacturing price is so low it makes me physically sad to think about.

The firmware on most modern hearing aid devices can be easily updated. These updates may include updates for the sound processing as well, indeed. However, you can't easily "replace the chip" like you can just swap out an old

That is exactly how they work. The implant is incredibly "dumb" and very future proof.

A lot of OSS is used in modern hearing aids, actually. A hearing aid is closer to a small computer these days than you'd think.

Here's the thing about cochlear implants that the article at first glance does not tell the reader: * you undergo a VERY expensive surgery. * in the surgery you get installed the actual cochlear implant. * the implant itself is VERY ba

Do you rate the quality as poor because your experience with AM radio is static noise from some radio station in a nearby country, or?

I wonder how many cents this will save them per car. When I can buy a Software Defined Radio module for less than a bottle of wine and some sushi that lets me listen to both AM and FM (everything below 1 GHz basically), and this module take

If I had to "version control" a 1 TB large repo - and assuming I wouldn't quit in anger - I would use a tool which is built for this kind of need and has been used in the industry for decades: Perforce.
