Is there actually any difference? I'd have though that the self-driving car would need to be insured to be allowed on the road, so in both cases you're going up against the insurance company rather than the actual owner.

Trust is a about the author, not the code. Open source is a bare minimum, although even that's not worth as much given how much harder it is now to load extensions that you've compiled yourself. But those features you're talk

There are plenty of places you can sell exploits other than OCGs. At the more legitimate end of that market is people like ZDI who will then collaborate with the vendors (after a time), or companies making exploit kits/tooling for pent

I remember seeing a prank program years ago that showed the SETI@home screensaver for a bit, then popped up an alert box saying "Alien Life Found!" with options to submit or cancel(!). If you tried to submit it would spend a while

Vulnerability disclosure is general is just miserable. Before all the bug bounty issues it was pretty common to: * Spend ages trying to find someone to submit a report to. * Waste a whole load of time fighting through the generic contact an

There's also the issue of what happens to my money as a researcher. Is it paid to the company, or is someone holding it in escrow? What if it takes the developer months to respond, or they never do? Do they just get to keep my money in

A problem with this approach is that one of the key functions of a bug bounty program is to encourage people to report vulnerabilities to the developers , rather than selling them elsewhere. If I have to pay money to submit a vulnerabili

Does NPM require MFA to be used? If so I could understand this (although there are certainly arguments to have had about it). But if they allow accounts without MFA then this would seem counterproductive, because while TOTP has issues it&

Does this same argument not apply to other areas of music though? By that line of reasoning, should sites not also have to declare whether they used synthesisers rather than real instruments, or autotune for vocals, or all kinds of other th

The interesting question would be how many products came in lower , but sadly the article doesn't include that. If 23% were higher and 23% were lower then you could make a reasonable argument that it's just incompetence from the

The simple solution is that whenever you start to write a comment, ask yourself: do I want to have a discussion about this? If the answer is "yes", then make your comment, check back and interact with the responses (assuming they

Many blogs support RSS (even if they don't link to it - check the page source), so that's usually the best way to do it. There are lots of different RSS readers out there depending on whether you want a web based or local one. Per

I don't know how much a fully laden "large plane" weighs, but it's nowhere near 450,000 tons. Which means that the claim it releases 450,000 tons of CO2 on a single flight is clearly bollocks.
