The wording they use makes it sound like the attackers compromised some Linode service to gain access to a specific customers machine rather than that customer themselves being exploited. If it was just a compromise of that customer there w

The number n has log(n)/log(10) digits so it technically take log(n) time to read it.

Layer 3 is the network layer, basically they mean the attack is just generating enough traffic at the network level to overload the target. Layer 7 is the application layer which means they are overloading the application. A web server conn

Just move it when/if they shutdown the service? It's not like they are going to suddenly shutdown the service or remove your ability to export contacts.

The "don't use bcrypt" is really just think about it before you choose it. He says in the first sentence "If you're already using bcrypt, relax, you're fine, probably." The other algorithms he mentioned were "scrypt" (mentioned already by G

Similar concept but the Google proposal is better for a number of reasons (I'm assuming Google's is based of public key cryptography). Yubikeys have to be verified by yubico so you have to trust them. This also means it can be safely used b

Why not just respond to the initial dcma rather than playing a game of cat and mouse. No one is going to use it while it has dubious copyright status anyway.

Satoshi dice transactions pay relatively high fees and is probably the only reason transactions have any fees at all. Miners already limit the number of free transactions that are processed some (BTC guild) don't even process free transacti

Really they should have handled this the same way as the other case. Sent a 600€ request (or 6000€) for a donation to KDE and a NDA and possibly a licensing agreement. It's pretty clear Sony did not intend to do this and most likely just a

It's not one vendor it's just one (open source) implementation. I'd argue this is better for innovation as new features will be quickly ported between the vendor forks and spend more time improving the product than catching up to other im

He also ignores the situation where you want to upload it to an untrusted third party server where the javascript was obtained from a trusted server. Also the same problems of verifying the source exist in most closed source applications th

Presumably it still checks the certificate is valid otherwise the worse case would just be that the legitimate site would not work.

I don't really see the point. Spdy is already supported by major browsers more than this would ever have. Why have half the features when you can have them all? Also browsers would need new APIs to deal with getting the data from slicing as

It seems most of the backlash around that was due to you suggesting you publish IP addresses. Since you are already taking credit card details I don't think people would object to recording IP addresses to prevent credit card fraud (maybe o

I somewhat wish they had used something like the ruby style for this to allow chaining of the blocks e.g. 5.times{|x| x}.select{|x| x < 3}.collect{|x| x + 2} Edit: Ok ignore that it seems they do have that ( https://mail.mozill

I don't see why we need click fraud blocking in the browser anyway, unless it was just a by product blocking malware, as it could be done way more effectively in the ad network.
