It doesn't work like that. You will be forced into compliance. Try creating a competing social network for example.

Coding and auditing/reviewing demand inverted perspectives on the code (aiming for functionality vs. disfunctionality), and you should seek to synchronize these two mindsets such that you always think a few steps ahead with each statem

Theranos is the most extreme example of blowing up the hype to biblical proportions while producing absolutely nothing and while the company is now defunct, Holmes was a billionaire for years. She got a lot out of it. IBKR banned trading Ga

What a terribly dogmatic way of looking at things. Some things don't change because they work fine, like core network protocols. Other things have improved so dramatically that they're indistinguishable from magic to anyone who li

I don't have any certs (apart from malformed X509 files..) so I can't speak of their effectiveness. What has worked for me is having a strong presence in open source. I just show people one of my projects like [1] and nobody asks

This was the final straw for me. I'm migrating to alternatives after a very long time with Firefox. I just can't trust the product of a wildly ideological organization which clearly has hangups about free speech and how users spen

It has happened before. Ethereum Classic is the "original" version of Ethereum, but it's a nondescript altcoin, while the one that reversed transactions is the number #2 in the world. I don't see why that can't happ

It looks like the API is overloaded. With regards to taste, you usually need to find a suitable gateway into an unpopular genre to begin appreciating it. I always hated jazz until I turned 30, when I heard the melodic jazz of Avishai Cohen

I used to donate to Wikipedia until I found they that have plenty of money already. I used to donate to Mozilla until I found that they don't use the money for Firefox development but for anti-free speech propaganda like [1]. I have do

You can't conveniently pay with it so after the "digital cash" idea didn't pan out people settled on it being "store of value". But if that was what people really wanted, they'd be cheering for less volati

I recommend watching the other video's on the channel as well. This hacker interview is the odd one out, most other video's are interviews with drug addicts and prostitutes living on Skid Row LA about their life story. Very intere

Nice taste and website. A similar website is https://jambuds.club/ (another HN user posted this one time). I think this kind of social network has social and commercial potential.

Interesting. I recently hacked together a tool shows the area on the screen I point to in maximum threshold, to make things like this visible. I have it mapped to a hotkey and I fire it up every time I see a redacted area. https:/&#x2

There are some users here who frequently share great insights and “binging” their histories has been a delightful experience. I think HN is fine the way it is but if anything I wish I could express my gratitude and encouragement to those us

I think I've seen this movie before. You better start grabbing from the archive what you don't want to be lost forever.

Yandex image search is amazingly good, certainly for faces. Bing is also pretty good. Google is the worst out of these three. If a picture of your face is hosted on the internet (for example on your blog) you can do the following experiment

You are correct because they have now added a bullet point: > Vulnerabilities found with an SRD are automatically considered for reward through the Apple Security Bounty.

> If you use the SRD to find, test, validate, verify, or confirm a vulnerability, you must promptly report it to Apple and, if the bug is in third-party code, to the appropriate third party. If you didn’t use the SRD for any aspect of yo

I've been doing differential fuzzing of many major cryptographic libraries. It currently tests symmetric crypto, some elliptic curve crypto, bignum arithmetic, message digests and MACs, KDFs, but not TLS, X509, ASN1 etc (yet). The list

What people don't seem to realize is that an increase of popularity of Linux will lead to a tragedy of the commons situation. Desktop Linux currently is mature enough to be usable for most everyday tasks, but has a small enough market

With so many people in lockdown, the extent to which we depend on the internet has probably never been so large, so the last thing we need is a global internet outage. A wormable vulnerability spreading through operating systems, web server

HackerOne appears to be completely broken and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Disagreements are to be expected on a bug bounty platform, but these days they just stop responding altogether and don't pay. It borders on outright

Why, because it requires a MITM position? Actually, using a DNS server serving the wrong IP for downloads.openwrt.org will have the same effect.
