I disagree that it would take man-years to fish that out from a binary. Black hat and white hat hackers do this all the time.

If you have a big collection of obscure/foreign music (video game music is a great example), then nothing beats Apple Music + iCloud Music Library and iTunes match. You can use iTunes match to provide cloud-based high quality versions

With JavaScript disabled, the Wired article loads fine and the outline.com article doesn't load at all. I'd say you have that backwards.

Another thing to keep in mind is that these devices already exist (used by Apple internally), only on the black market. A lot of these development fused devices are stolen from the factory and sold to black hat/gray hat hackers (and co

Why is it appalling? Can you be more specific?

I'm sure those aren't the only reasons. Quite a lot of people get away with tax fraud. If the IRS really knew everything and filing taxes was just a pointless exercise, why is fraud so prevalent?

> I also found a back-door in the MUD that was inserted by a previous maintainer. YIKES. This strikes me as the kind of thing that happens when you don’t use version control.

Nothing beats the smell of the Sonoran desert during the rain, thanks to a special plant called the Creosote bush. Rain is also rare enough so everyone from the region grows to appreciate it a lot.

What are some good channels to visit in 2019? I feel like most of the ones I used to frequent are dead silent now. And my small friend channels have since moved to Discord.

Not going to happen. We've been through this before. What I do think we might see is some kind of corporate incentive (secretive or not so secretive) to effectively push normal (non-computery) people into using non-E2E services. Google

This doesn’t really solve some of the more concerning things about recommendations, which is the gradual ease into more extreme content. i.e., “super Mario speedrun” to “Top 10 speedrunning fails” to “Super Mario speedrunner gets owned” to

I agree with the sentiment, but I find newspapers to be really awful and difficult to read. The cheap ink they use leaves an unpleasant smell on my hands, the paper being so huge requires strategy in folding it just right so you can read th

IIRC, it was hosted by the Pirate Party at the Pionen White Mountain reserve for some time. But ever since Cloudflare came into existence, access to their front-end is provided by them with a hidden tor node in the back-end.

Even closer to this is the Arduboy[1]. I've had one for a while and even wrote a Tetris game for it. It's SO tiny and light! [1] https://arduboy.com/

I’ll tell you as an Apple employee—engineers and first/second level managers don’t give a shit about market share or which platform makes the most money. Most of the engineers I work with are very personally motivated because macOS is

I think you’re looking at it the wrong way. YouTube is not preserving video game history by providing a place to host these videos. Instead, they’re offering an incentive for people to create these videos that are currently hosted on YouTub

Fans of the movie Hackers (1995) will recall Dade Murphy reading the first line of Howl in his advanced English class. The Beat culture of the 1950's was absolutely the predecessor to the hacker/cyberpunk culture of the 1990'

I play Dance Dance Revolution competitively and it’s extremely important there as well. A lot of people ask me how I’m able to “read the notes that fast”. The answer is always that you build an intuition about what patterns follow certain p

One of the benefits not mentioned in the article: it serves as a good personal record of accomplishments or thoughts (similar to a diary). How often does the new year come around and you think to yourself, "where did the year go?"
