If another civilization had reached space-faring technology then one day they might come back and discover that the (perhaps inhospitable) home planet...harbors again life. Probably too far-fetched and better suited as material for a scifi

Exactly, the results are not reversible if you apply rounding.

Aside from rounding I have 2 reasons to not use them where (financial) precision is necessary: - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Refe... (it's the same in other languages) -

I think that a constant pressure to optimize this specific aspect (layout) has caused this. However, optimization is not innovation. What are novel ways that search results can be presented to (and consumed by) the user? Where is search goi

Great article! Thanks for the link. Nowadays I cringe when I regularly see small fridges completely encased in furniture in hotel rooms, with no air circulation. They get very warm and even the top surface of the furniture sometimes. I wond

I didn't know that Netgear already has proven to not be following coordinated disclosure; generally I think it's fair to give some time to the vendor. I like how Google Project Zero does it: give time, but don't extend indefi

Since the details of the deal are not public, I will give you another possible speculative scenario: bribery :P

I see it as a valid learning tool, a modern alternative to a Basic variant, however later on I would complete the curriculum with something with a bigger market penetration.

by gdm85 7y ago
By the way, I meant coordinated disclosure and I am not aware of Netgear not doing any at all, never.

If what you said were true then zero-days would be always ignored and not a concern.

It's not optimistic, it's what a responsible vendor is supposed to do. By not following responsible disclosure the researcher has lifted the vendor from the possibility of organizing a proper response.

by gdm85 7y ago
There is another reason why responsible disclosure would have been better (and less short-sighted): vendor might make an internal audit, find root cause and invalidate a bunch of certificates at once (think about similarly leaked certificat

Some parts of the talk did not really stitch together; if we consider the main arguments against Unix (and the funny dab at Plan9) I felt them a bit lacking in the sense that they do not propose alternative philosophies, but only a liberati

You're welcome; I figured it was something like that. Sorry "vultures" took it over, I would use something like GitHub/GitLab pages if you are looking for minimum maintenance.

Not sure if you are aware of this (I hope it's not on purpose), but your personal website mentioned on your 'About' description contains some questionable content (gambling?) in indonesian language. If I may ask, was it hacke

They probably calculate different scores depending on the purpose (SEO, safe browsing etc). If you want to stand your ground you could simply add a password to your archive (works best with 7zip as you can avoid exposing the filename with e

The score for serving binaries would be a different metric than for SEO.

If I remember correctly you need to make a donation to access some firmwares, but I cannot tell whether you can access the source after the donation.

If you prefer to directly host it then you will have to wait (and hope that no one files a complaint about your domain). At some point your domain will have a sufficient score and it will not show the warnings to users. How long that will t

From my experience this works fine (using links to GitHub downloads), see also my other reply. They don't give score to "GitHub accounts" but they use some form of score/accountability based on the domain. As far as I kn

Have you considered releasing the binaries as releases on GitLab or GitHub? That's at least how I would try to work around the issue. Regarding the blog post: I think this is a side effect of making the web a "safer" place fo
