This is a straight-up 100k-500k bug. If I were to discover this bug and know I'd only get $1k and be a "good guy" vs. getting millions, well... The fact is that these bug bounty programs should start paying competitive prices

There is a drone delivery system that is being developed right now. The plan is to install towers into buildings, where the drones can land and drop off the deliveries. You could potentially do your shopping at work, and then pick up your d

For some reason every week I get like 2-5 songs with the same beat, but a bit remixed or covered by someone else. It's trying way too hard to recommend similar songs sometimes.

I was introduced to programming by my father. He's a business analyst of sorts, so naturally he only knows VBA. After he left his job, some poor soul had to inherit his massive collection of VBA scripts, which more or less automated hi

The beauty of just dropping your black boxes everywhere is that once you have a 0-day, you can just run it on your full fleet of machines scattered everywhere. Once you find a new 0-day, you can run that one etc. Less effort with a lot more

A could be a big enough threat that B will buy a lot of votes. In a way, A can blackmail B, because the money gets distributed later (A will get a lot more back than they put in, because B bought an unnecessarily high amount of votes). Is t
