There's a good chance that if it's not a previously known vector, they've contact the author of the component with some opportunity to fix it before it's publicized and resulting in attacks from new parties.* * I neither agree nor disagree

Hardly even a news article - it's someone making supposition from a handful of tweets. Good fodder for the intertubess.

Actually, he was leaving the country[1], but I'm pretty sure that's ultimately beside the point. I have sincere doubts that cryptography was the reason for his detainment. By his own admission he had been detained four times in the previou

Given that we'll only ever get one side of the story, and that side of the story being interpreted a certain way would certainly bring favor to the author, how can we actually presume that the few tweets he made really gives us the whole pi

As someone who releases software under GPL and LGPL, and hardware designs under CC licenses, I don't see how anyone would sue you over a GPL license. Unless, of course, you took something from a GPL licensed software and then did not provi

And, there are thousands of welders employed in many other industries - let us not forget that you can't sit around and stop production while you wait six months for the Chinese to make a replacement for a one-of-a-kind machine. On the str

That would be great, if these cars were actually in production. Only the Lupo has been replaced, by the Up!, which only gets 52mpg (US).

Are there some restrictions in the Apple Developer Agreement that prevent one from distributing the source for your app on a 3rd party website? I have always heard the argument that you can't distribute GPL'd apps because the source cannot

It does not say that at all, in fact it says: "The upcoming version of Mac OS X, Mountain Lion, will reportedly include warning messages that strongly discourage users from installing apps from sources other than the Mac App Store. Fortuna

The part that sets off my incredulity here is that the whole purpose was "he had a lot of tools that he didn't want to get stolen." I have a hard time believing that bike can hold more tools than one could carry, or otherwise drag with a s

My take on this article is this: it's short-sided to put so much money into one particular sector, and to encourage others to pull them out of longer-to-realize-profit sectors. That the end result is a diminishing return in the long run fo

Agreed, the article is egregiously misleading, the data only samples that from one provider, with no explanation of how many companies and of what size and type of merchants that provider handles. EDIT: Somehow my comment got linked to this

Agreed, and many architectures are designed to have components "transparently fail" without impact to overall operation. When you have forced failures, feedback/damping is absolutely required. However, (my experience dictates) that most s

My experience has almost always led to #3 being the most workable solution, but not a perfect one.* #2 should be incorporated into any project, but it presumes that you know all possible ramifications of incorrect operation. An electrical

Firstly, I never claimed America to be the pinnacle of civilization, and I don't see anyone else doing the same. I simply stated, that it's rather offensive to come in here and cast all Americans as uncivilized because one disagrees with ho

It leads one to wonder if the mobile ad payment argument is simply a problem with Google. That is, Google's strength is in advertising, and it works for Google due to their size and reach, but that capability may not expand to their app de

I think the core of the issue here is a societal difference towards firearms, and how that results in the training and education of people. Gun ownership is fairly high in the US, relative to Europe and seen as a right having requisite res

"Civilized is not exactly a well defined term. It's essentially a subjective criticism." Actually, it is quite well-defined. Here you go: "1. Having a highly developed society and culture. 2. Showing evidence of moral and intellectual adva

I find it seriously hard to believe that there's not a manual drivetrain disconnect. I do find it easy to believe that a tow-truck driver didn't know it had one, as I've seen them drag automatic vehicles rather than pull the transmission d
