Wow, this was very cool! I'll probably be looking all over the mall, my campus, etc for the rest of the summer until classes start again and I'm swamped by the algorithms and data structures class. Anyone have any more design or like links/

Great find, thanks for sharing. Also just idle curiousity, where'd you nab your username? LoK series?

Thanks for the slashdot convo. Now we don't have to have an conversation here! But no it won't kill my career because I program Java and if he wants to learn new things or in different ways he'll need us.

I think it should always be that. If you're easily addicted to watching small numbers go up perhaps you should spend your time jumping into a videogame (such as an MMO since you seem near inclined)but this is supposed to be a website for ne

It's assuredly cleverly written, but that doesn't guarantee value or any kind of discernible message.

This article mostly related to the hardware aspect and primarily from the business (or well-to-do, informed manager) perspective. I was hoping it would concentrate on the lack of programming skills and possible solutions but it primarily se

Thank you. HN seems to be subject to tons of vague or mildly misleading titles and I'm getting pretty sick of it. I wouldn't be bothered as much, but in some places if you get into too many technical details it seems to confound people and

That is an admission, otherwise this act would be futile. "We think someone stole animals from our pet shop, so we compared the empty cages to filled ones to figure out..."

Sometimes I wonder what it's like to pretend that you aren't affected by the mannerisms and maturity of all living human beings. To believe that there's a good rationalization to finding a short cutoff of helping people. This article's true

I'll read it but know this, and I'm willing to sign a document to the effect publicly, regardless of it's damage to my reputation. If a virus was spreading and I could counter it (especially without writing my own virus just for that) then

You don't spoof the messages, you spoof the destinations. In a closed system if you can get ahold of the destination as they have, you can redirect everything else to that center temporarily and just let it keep spamming suicide modules. I

It's juvenile.

>sausagefest Honestly I think the ones who have a problem are the ones who see a difference. Those that just put what they have out there and discuss openly, maturely will generally find (regardless of where they go) some kind of return

Have we forgotten the difference between articles and source/reference material? I see far too many blog posts and junk articles posted as sources or evidence in this day and age. No references to studies, or exposed facts that were collect

I love Java but it did introduce us (which may have occurred naturally over time) to new subsets of problems, which may in the future as well be referred to as traits.

This kind of thought process that you've pointed out above is probably the biggest cancer of the industry to be honest. What happened to apprenticeship? Better your hiring practice or stop hiring cheap. Also I'd wager with such an absurdly

That article gave me cancer. It seems like it wants to be different than other businesses but is not. As soon as you say "And other reasons not listed here" you just made your list useless. Having a huge book of rules makes it feel like an

Another thing to note is how fragile and obviously forced the tentative friendship between the US and Israel is.

As per normal. Anyone in the antivirus/virus community knows how much of a slow and often incompetent operation Symantec & Co are.

Thank you for saying this. My biggest problem with all this media is that with knowledge of how it works, and having control of the C&C software, none of those idiots are just saying "For a day let's spoof all of their update centers an

You are reasonable. It's even more interesting considering the nosedive Facebook's taking that they'd purposefully abuse the presence of another for marketing purpose.

Thank you for using the word human. I'm all about the "Don't kiss others' booties on the off chance that it will come back to you" because if you're doing it for that reason, you're doing it wrong. Just treat people well, take everything on

I think it's foolish to say who will be remembered in the future, as it's mostly up to advertising and what random factlets make it into our defunct schoolbooks. I only hope that more important characters from computer history than Jobs or

It IS a chat program, so no blame there.

Unfortunately, Hacker News is a site for generic tech news (random sob articles occasionally) and startups, with the emphasis on startup advice/etc. A few months back I tried asking for programming advice (language, direction, and even job

You can find the story without useless "journalistic context" on his twitter feed, where it came from: https://twitter.com/kaepora/status/210366514442932224 Or I pastebin'd the article for you or anyone else curious: http://pastebin.com/

While I'm generally the tin hat wearer in my circles, it's perfectly logical that he was just curious. If he had computer science experience he may have had a legitimate interest in it. That said, he may not have been a programmer, thus th

That blood trickle from customers while they FIX the experience is a BAD thing. There was already far too much missing from the game as promised. But to deliver an obviously incomplete game (lvl 60 cap, no PVP, still no RMAH despite the str

I love that this is downvoted with no response. Realize that I provided evidence and this post was just FACTS. #1 I was hacked. #2 Twice. #3 Had authenticator for both. #4 My password is secure. #5 Blizzard's emails/ticket responses insist

by cldrope 14y ago
I can't downvote so I cannot say. But my theory is that while you provide some good information both your format and tone are not really in line with people here. I took no offense coming from a hacking perspective, as it's normal to be fai
