I strongly suspected it was a performance and necessity thing. Not many text-based formats would have easily supported e.g. embedding images, as this tool does. I do think it looks pretty great, though, and congratulations on the open sourc

The attack involves resetting the user's password, which would have made the original user unable to access their own account until they reset the password back. After several such incidents were reported, Facebook likely would have co

Seeing as it's a brute-force per-account attack, a more accurate title would have been "How I could have hacked any Facebook account". Hacking "all of Facebook" would have been prohibitively resource-intensive for t

I really like these sorts of tools, but the file format[1] is a bit of a con for me. Being binary/proprietary, it makes it difficult to integrate other tools or feed the data into other systems. [1] https://github.com/

The article clearly has substance, it just doesn't align with your opinion on the topic. dang definitely didn't "single out" the commenter, which a cursory glance at dang's comment history will corroborate - hell if

I think it's a perfectly valid topic. We can't pretend men and women are the same, especially in cases where a person's gender is unusual for a given circumstance. In the interviewee's case that certainly applies, so her

> I think wherever you look in the world, you see a field or an endeavor that’s not got women in it. You can ask yourself why aren’t there women there? And the answer is always the same: It’s because women aren’t welcome. Does that inclu

That isolation was also a blanket of security. If you exhibit any attributes that today's moral panic is against, you could find yourself facing down a horde of harassers. They'll find all your friends and family on Facebook and t

Increased latency, probably. They said they wanted 99% of queries to be 100ms or less. When I use the pgAdmin and run EXPLAIN ANALYZE SELECT 1; I get 0.025ms execution time, but it takes 62ms to send and recieve that.
