I am currently about 5 episodes in and I am enjoying it so far. The 5th episode has kinda lost some of the excitement that the first 4 had, but I'm hoping it it picks up again. I know that this series is based on a book, and I have bee

For those out of the loop, this is related to a previous post on hackernews of an amateur astronomers blog. He accidentally found signals from an unknown object that looked like NASA's IMAGE satellite, which had previously been lost in

I agree, I only learned it recently but there are a few very motivated individuals that track satellites and share a lot of the information. I learned about it during the whole Zuma fiasco, from the SatTrackCam blog [0]. I would definitely

The Superbowl has sort of grown to become a traition where big companies fight to pay exorbitant amounts to play ads that are generally mildly more entertaining than the usual garbage. Its pretty specific to only the Superbowl, as its the

I would much prefer that the license and information from apple explicitly stated that this chinese firm will only be able store and access data from chinese accounts and there is a very secure barrier between the two. However, given this p

I am running a razer blade 2017 with ubuntu 16.04 and so far all of the PoCs have worked. I currently have my kaslr offset and I am now testing the reliability. So far it doesn't seem very good with a 0.00% success rate at 60 reads. It

Honestly given all the weird stuff that happened with this satellite this doesn’t seem too far fetched. The fact that it got way too close to the iss, and that zuma aligned with its orbit not just once but both scheduled launch attempts see

The thing is batteries don’t need to have even close to the energy density of gasoline in order to be competitive. As long as cars keep being terrible at actually making use of the energy density of gasoline, batteries won’t need to keep up

You would think that but at least with the 8tb version they are often standard red drives that look the exact same as any other. It could be just that since they are their own drives, they can afford to price the hard drives much closer to

If you look in the document there is a section about a hard-coded backdoor admin account that cannot be changed. So secret hard-coded backdoor does make sense to me.

I always wondered they were able to sell these devices so cheaply. I recently bought 2 4tb ones to take the hard drives out as they were each $30 cheaper than buying a regular 4tb hardrive.

I think its more about the flexibility of having access to more resources than you can ever need. If you buy a 1080 then you are limited by its performance and say you wanted to train to models at the same time, you are even more limited. W

This is very similar in style to my favorite presentation and paper of all time, titled On The Turing Completeness of PowerPoint [0]. The research, presentation and paper were all created inside of powerpoint and it is probably the greatest

Wow so intel comes and says what is all the panic about there is nothing wrong (despite knowing this) and then amazon drops the we are updating everything right now bomb and then google drops the mother of all cpu bugs. In a previous thread

There are at least tens of thousands, possibly hundreds of thousands of Intel CPUs in just datacenters around the globe. Most of which are controlled by companies that make a lot of money and paid a lot of money to intel for their CPUs. And

What started as speculation about recent kernel developments has really turned into a shitshow for Intel. I can't imagine they thought that these massive changes would get through without anyone finding out. However, there really isn&#

Usually I go into these things with a fair amount of skepticism but given the linux kernels usual pace of development and the nature of undisclosed bugs we have seen in the past this seems like a large hypervisor bug could be the reality. I

When I saw the work being done with adding web assembly support to rust I though it was cool but I never really put much thought into how far it could be taken. Seeing projects like this is really great and makes me realize just how much ro

According to this [0] with the current mining rates of lithium it was last us 365 years. However, given the exponential rate that technology has grown at, we will hopefully have figured a solution to this, either with different battery tech

I would understand if it was a small small startup like his that was in trouble, but even if Uber got in trouble for violating the patents, its still just research for developing self-driving cars that isn't critical to their day to da

I don't really understand why this guy would feel like he needed to use a lot of his own time and $6000 to try and help Uber. In the article it says that he felt like it was a larger competitor attacking a larger competitor, but its no

I get the exact same thing, I might be wrong but I don't think that the windows version does anything different. According to the website it seems that the vendor needs to provide software to patch the firmware.

AMD has had their own version of this for quite some time. Its called the Platform Security Processor (PSP), it has been in anything AMD since around 2013 [0]. I am not sure if Ryzen / Threadripper has it, but I would be surprised if i

Wow all 6th, 7th and 8th gen are all vulnerable along with a bunch of Xeon processors. Even the laptop I am typing this on is vulnerable, this is going to be messy. Plus all the fun vulnerabilities like arbitrary code execution, unauthorize

I understood that statement as saying they were halving the power usage compared to a traditionally designed chip interconnect that uses ordinary traces rather than the EMIB silicon chip talked about in the article. Not halving the power us
