But they'd have to pay those $3200 without knowing if there were results. They might have to pay dozens of such consultants before one of them found bugs like this. Bug bounties, paid only on successful discoveries, are much cheaper.

This is already mainstream. Facebook even pulls the code directly from your SMS if you are logging into their Android app. It's just that it's a second factor to the password. Your phone can be stolen as well (although such theft

Do you mean the sound waves would generate radio waves somehow, or are you thinking of the speaker generating EM interference as well? How strong would you expect that to be?

Turing completeness has little to do with it. JS was always Turing complete, yet these little exercises were not possible 5 years ago.

Every single European airport I have been to has this kind of portals to get from inside the secured terminal area to the baggage claim area.

This is entirely my own empirical evidence (I worked tech support in a design house), but mac users seem to use keyboard shortcuts more than contextual menus. E.g. opening links in a new tab is command+click or alt+click, depending on the b

I don't agree that the joke and hatred go hand in hand. I'm not fat (which perhaps somehow disqualifies me from having an opinion), but it doesn't come for free. This is the case for majority of non-fat people. Most people un

The line seems rather clear. "Haha, you're fat" phrased in a witty way isn't too bad, and can be amusing even to the "victim" if they have a healthy self-image. But "you should do everyone a favor and kill

The falling ash in Avatar was also first time I saw 3D (at 28). Now I'm considering another surgery to correct my eyes, as I'm convinced the stereoscopic circuitry is all there in my brain, counter to what doctors claim. Let me kn

The fallacy is that people think they are in control in traffic, and that if they are careful then they'll be safe. Dig up statistics about traffic fatalities, and see how many of them were caused by someone else. Here you can see that

I greatly disagree that empathy is innate. It's exactly what separates "teenagers" from young adults, and is very much a learned skill.

Thermal printers are not high-resolution enough to make grey text. You'd have too few dots in a letter to make them readable.

The only decision you might want to fight is not being let on the plane, and this will only happen after a physical search, or you refusing to subject to one. In either case, the scanner data seems irrelevant.

As backed up by xxpor, I don't think this is true. But mainly, I don't see the tremendous opportunity for abuse, unless you are some sort of celebrity whose blurry nude pictures are valuable.

This is great, looking forward to more! A bug: If it reaches the end, then clicking in the score will move the pointer there and start scrubbing but no sound is played. The play/pause button behavior becomes a bit funky as well.

I like to view pids as a special case of a channel. A pid is just the one-and-only channel of a process, and a process cannot create more. If I'm not mistaken, Erlang advocates creating processes for very specific tasks, so most of t
