I have been reading the list of 2 factor at lastpass [1] and in addition to mentioning the yubikey, it talks about the grid multifactor [2] - probably about on par with what was used in WW2 but it seems extremely simple, low tech solution t

This was the section of the article that caught my attention as well. My guess is when a child is use to being rescued or cared for after a very very short time, they learn quickly to do (or try) things themselves and not rely on parents, c

The picture shows 8 tiny fans mounted inside (not counting the fan probably inside the PS) I would have thought that part of the reason for going to ARM is the low power - hopefully no moving parts. It would have been cool (ha) to see them

I know taking issue with Einstien is not a good idea - but I'll do it anyway. Learning - and putting as much relevent material in your working memory is beneficial to seeing the bigger picture and quick informed decisions. A collection of o

This last year I have made a conscious effort that whenever I use the word 'just' in communicating at work I stop. It has taken some time and introspection but for me personally when I prefface a statement with "... just do.." it follows w

That Bic pen hack was pretty crazy! for those that don't know, the technique may have been discovered as early as 1992 [1] but the Kryptonite hack was made public in around 2004. [2] [1] http://www.snopes.com/crime/warnings/kryptonite.asp
