   This is pretty much why we shouldn't be trusting centralized services at the scale of Facebook. Given that two researchers got that far, sooner or later another will actually manage to escalate the privileges. And then, I'm not su

   How is that more sexist than if it was all women / mostly women?

   The thing is that I would enjoy it as well if I just signed up. I actually feel offended by that.

   What's up with the latest Hacking Team news now? I keep hearing about a 2015 leak and I wonder why I only heard about it now.

   I would say that it's not as much of a problem that it's centralised, the biggest worry is that our core protocols are terribly insecure: https://security.stackexchange.com/questions/56069/what-secu...

   That's why I believe that there should be more energy put into genetic fuzzing of Firefox. If we managed to attach AFL to its content sniffing engine for example, I'm pretty sure it wouldn't take long to find something fun...

   I'd argue that it's not having to pay that is the problem alone; instead - the way they charge you an insane amount of money per paper. I wouldn't mind paying, say $1 monthly on entrance to have my park clean. Charging $10 pe

    For a while I was hoping they meant wi-fi. We sure as hell need WPA3, with some decent security for a change (for example, preventing everyone who knows the key from snooping and injecting traffic or getting rid of this DEAUTH nonsense).

    Well, the first thing I thought of is what nightmare would it be to safely implement a parser for this in C. I filed a Github issue for this one: https://github.com/laktak/hjson/issues/37

    Just curious, do we have ANY examples of AI actually improving our lives today that we couldn't write off as examples of privacy invasion (like Facebook's face detection)? I'm getting the impression that it's not the AI

    By the way, I have a question: what is the best learning material for intermediate/advanced Vim users? I know quite a lot of Vim features but apart from vimtutorial, I never learned them in any organized way - it was more of a bunch of

    Interesting! Is there a brain region related to telling apart results of imagination and our actual perception that would work as a fail-safe mechanism?

    Absolutely awesome! Add tab completion and maybe syntax highlighting and it sounds pretty powerful... One thing I'm missing in interactive interpreters is a way to save code to a file on the fly - testing things and preparing the outpu

    Well it depends. Stack is just a data structure. I'd say that the fact alone that you go from a deep call stack to "iterative" version where you can clearly see the stack in the code doesn't automatically make it much be

    The question is though: would you prefer a) a half-baked feature where coding is 1/10th of the effort and you're still left with 9/10th of the work for the maintainer/community or b) a small, but undeniable improvement?
