Hopefully this is a trend that continues in favor of students. Currently paying $100+ for a single textbook that has such a short lifespan (for the original owner, and for others due to the planned obsolence model by textbook publishers) p

I'd prefer to not need to be "protected" from a preventable condition in the first place, and fully enjoy the benefits of exercise as well.

Pop science doesn't vindicate textbook science which still discourages high amounts of saturated fat. And the Massai (and Inuit) referred to in your link are hardly good examples. They have short lifespans (as low as in the 40s), suffer fr

I'd suppose I could drink a bottle of pesticide and tell you how I feel, but I would feel rather stupid proving the obvious.

This is a great contribution to the hacker community. I've been using git for about 1 1/2 years, but I can't wait to read this book and learn more. If you go to the github URL, this is also a great way to see how one can use a markup langu

Since they are against disclosing vulnerabilities, it seems more likely that these intruders did not gain access through an unknown SSH exploit, but some other way. Once obtaining root, they could paste some proof of being on the system, a

The email sent here is informative. http://seclists.org/fulldisclosure/2009/Jul/0095.html It's informative because it pretends to imply a little information about how imageshack.us was compromised: > anti-sec:~/pwn# perl img-scan.
