I used to analyze mobile malware and the line of what was OK and what wasn't really came down to how big the company was. If it was an unknown firm set up as analytics / advertising, it was fine to block. If it was a mega analytic

This was my first thought. A lot of the replies here are going all out, but it is likely some simple web vuln that trusts the browser. /transfer_money?from_account=NNNN&to_account=MMMM&amount=$$$$ It would actually be

Yea, a ton. Turns out I'm celiac, so gluten was the first thing I cut (to solve digestion issues and sinus headaches). My nose cleared up significantly, but not totally. Years of eating gluten messed up my small intestine so I have dig

I'm always really worried about this stuff. I have Mixpanel events that get disabled if the Do Not Track flag is sent. I'm always worried a browser will stomp on parts of the site just because tracking code is there, even when the

It will suck a lot for a few days, bad headaches, might even throw up. For me, I was in slowmo for about a month. I normally work on stuff when I get home and for about a month I would go home and just sit around. After that I was over it a

I did this for a while but got sick of withdrawal symptoms (my body seems to be hypersensitive in this regard), so I just stopped all together. Most recently cut out sugar. I feel so good now. I can't believe how many foods I was eatin

I like how the author complains about cyberpocalypse conference talks then goes on to say the security industry is broken... Hard coded creds and the allowance of default creds isn't the security industry, it's the manufacturer.

I had a MBP a few years ago. I installed the Boot Camp beta. When it went out of beta it locked up with no ability to change the configuration or installed OSs. The solution was to upgrade (30$) to the latest version of OS X. Which meant I

When was this? Wacom drivers come built into Ubuntu now. I use my tablet with MyPaint. I agree that the graphics suites could be better, but it works for my not-so-artistic pursuits.

I really feel most Linux distros were made for developers and development. Whenever I try to do things on Windows and OSX I get insanely frustrated with the amount of friction. It's nice to have an OS that trusts you and lets you make

You'll want to look for front end libraries that have XSS mitigations built in. For cookies, at the most basic level, use an unguessable (secure random) value (more advanced is signing cookies, which some frameworks do so they can not

SQL injection is probably the primary attack. You might also have unsecured endpoints that give too much information (eg. /query_user_info?email=me@yahoo.com). If you have endpoints that can be leveraged to achieve remote code executio

Thanks, I do Daoist meditation and have been on a few retreats. They're not nearly as strict about no communication, but it is a lot of meditation / qigong each day. I'd be really interested in a strict retreat environment, b

I've thought this too, same with going blind. I'm sure it would suck, I'm sure there would be a lot of distractions, but maybe sleep through that crap during the day and meditate at night. I'm very curious how well I cou

I dislike this sentiment. Not everyone wants kids. Usually meeting Mr. Right doesn't change whether someone wants children or not.

I'm one of the participants in this contest. The Zcash proof of work is Equihash. It uses Blake2b to create a bunch of hashes, then Wagner's generalized birthday algorithm to find a set of distinct hashes that xor to zero. The dea

I do believe that there should be no more soda in the world. At least, we should wipe it out, get everyone through withdrawal, then reintroduce it. Sugar and caffeine are addictive. We are given these things from a very young age and have v

I had that installed for a while and totally forgot about it. Then I was very confused for a few months about people putting the word Butt in their new product offerings. Then I realized it and uninstalled because I felt silly.

I've been using dotnetcore to prototype a project. I'm actually really impressed with it. Every time I build and run it on Linux I'm resurprised that the project started in Visual Studio and builds / runs on Linux. Neat

The XML for Word files is a pretty big mess and it doesn't follow the spec in places. Headers for example, there are three section headers that can be specified, default, odd, and first. If odd and first are not included, it should go

Absolutely. I had a computer and internet access growing up, now I have a high paying computer job. A lot of people did not and do not have that. I'm happy taking from someone who is making a decent income and giving it to those who ar

I have a decent income (s.t. it would be measurably reduced in an income redistribution situation) and I want it for self-interest reasons as well. I would be taxed more, sure, but I wouldn't have to worry about someone robbing me beca

So this is how programmers finally go remote. We need people to grow food, survey land, build things, but you can just code from Earth and transfer it to Mars. You'll need to be in an office on Earth though.

Get roommates in a cheap city, your rent could be down near $400-$600 / mo., that leaves plenty left over for food and necessities. Buy cheap clothing.

Did you not prove the parent comment's point? You were mostly concerned with aesthetics, the case material, keyboard layout, and stickers. I'm personally not a fan of the vendor lock in with Apple. You can spend similar money and
