   Wouldn't an easy solution be to turn auto updates on by default, and warn users that turn it off that they are opening themselves up to potential security issues, and to do so wisely?

   A few seasons of the Meat Eater show are on Netflix as well. I have been very impressed with the production quality - filming a hunt in extreme terrain and weather conditions has to be such a challenge, but every show is fantastic.

   I'm on page 104 right now and I cannot put it down. Highly recommended to everyone, but especially those who are into the natural history of North America. My wife is probably so tired of me talking about random bison facts, but its he

   I'm a complete noob when it comes to CTF, but escaping a VM to control the host is total witchcraft to me. Darknet Diaries just had a great podcast on the Pwn2Own CTF hosted by CanSecWest cyber-security conference, which includes a com

   Just wanted to say thank you for sharing this. It's not easy to be vulnerable, especially when it comes to emotional intelligence and what you could have done better. I'm happy to hear your family is doing well.

    This is one of the more exciting remote sensing projects going on right now (IMO), and I was thrilled to see this post! The goal is very admirable, and I hope you can find a great candidate and complete the mission.

    I hear what you're saying, and I have similar concerns. On the flipside, there is research out there that indicates in certain treatment scenarios, computers do a better job of detecting patterns, resulting in more accurate diagnoses a

    I've owned 30+ nice knives over the last 15 years, and the Kershaw Leek that I lost a few years back was one of the sharpest I've ever had. Great tool.

    Heavy use of Excel has literally changed the way I think, and it's what piqued my interest in learning how to program. Using macros was cool, but being able to record and see your actions "transcribed" to visual basic code wa

    Not quite. It's $67/month to just be able to try to stay in business. What benefit does that tax provide to start-ups, and why isn't it a function of the product the business produces instead of the flat rate that's impo

    What a lame excuse. No vehicle should ship with laminate edge detailing from a DIY store to be used as a brace to hold a component in place. That's just poor design and a lazy fix to hit your numbers, plain and simple.

    It has had a minimal impact on our dark skies in Colorado, but an impact nonetheless. In the past it was fun to spot satellites, and we'd usually go 10-15 minutes between seeing them, depending on the time. Now its rare to look up and

    Those laws were temporarily broken, then they shut down due to soaring maintenance costs and low ridership... hardly a success story.

    It's wild to see something so obscure - yet so relevant to my work - on the front page of HN. The antimeridian problem has plagued the GIS and satellite imaging communities for years, and as the article illustrates, there is no simple
