I just searched for cncoverflow based on your comment. I was disappointed to find it doesn't exist. It sounds cool. ;-)

The page's responsive design is buggy. On narrow screens, the entire left column disappears. All the important content is only accessible from that left column.

That's a risk, but I imagine the service would initially allow the user to scan only the network they are browsing from.

There's a great business opportunity hidden here. This kid (or anyone else) could set up a web site where people go to scan their own network for IoT vulnerabilities. Make it like the Qualys SSL testing service: let people test for f

In fact, this was not posted to the main Google blog, but rather a special "student" blog that's obviously designed for recruiting interns. Had I seen this post when I was going to school, I certainly would have seriously co

The belief that political opponents are mean, greedy, stupid, and/or foolish is the first thing we need to debug. No one is going to make much progress in such a hostile environment. Conservatives need to work to understand liberals

I don't think so. Thanks to Let's Encrypt, I expect that configuring HTTPS will soon be about as simple as "apt-get install apache". Hosting providers will make it a checkbox (that will soon be on by default.) We'

Your argument applies well to commodities. Today there are so many commodity products that we're almost drowning in them. Amazon, Walmart, Costco, and others have risen because they are optimized to take advantage of commodities. Your

I like the suggestion for a fun experiment, but I think pklausler was referring to the fact that strong magnets tend to wipe spinning hard drives, making magnets a bad idea for non-SSD laptops.

I guess this tool is intended for command line operation and scripting. If all you want to do is get around regional restrictions to watch videos, see http://hola.org/ . EDIT: Also, you should assume that any anonymous VPN

If this life is a classroom, as I have been told, then there are teachers and test administrators. The administrators withhold certain evidence of the past in order to help us focus on more important things. They want to help us grow in f

"Most mainstream Judaeo-Christian postulates the immortality of the soul. But it seems to come up against mainstream history and science." Does it? Science does not answer questions that defy empirical inquiry. I have been told t

Fascinating indeed! That never occurred to me before. I bet there's a sci-fi novel that explores it.

I agree. My words fail to express how horrifying and depressing it was for me to see the uncertainty of everything, but I worked through it and now my experience of everything is both "real" and "not real" at the same t

I've often wondered how other people deal with the questions of existence. What is real, after all? The only thing I feel certain of is that I exist in some form. "I think, therefore I am." I have no absolute certainty of

Reality in the universe one level up could be different in such a way that it is more conducive to creation of virtual universes. Our idea of reality could be a mere shadow of what others think of as reality.

To be honest, most Python coders probably never get deep enough in the language to start overriding hash values, and those who do probably understand the implications before they get that deep.

It's interesting that your experience is so different from mine. I've preferred Linux environments since about 1998. Sometimes I boot to Windows, but Windows feels very limiting. With Linux and KDE, I can use custom keyboard sh

This is where Pythonistas rely on the idea that "we're all consenting adults here". It's very useful to let objects assert that they have an arbitrary, immutable hash value. I've used that ability in Python and it

I can see your viewpoint. I see the article as a suggested categorization of a complex subject, where that suggested categorization is an opinion of what's useful. You're right, that's an opinion. I've read many textb

A tip for movie lovers: VidAngel has 100 of the IMDB Top 100. (I'm not sure about the top 250.) VidAngel costs $1 or $2 per movie after sell-back. They filter the movies, but you choose your own filtering, so it's not censorship

Well, I would hope that any IoT device that accepts remote configuration or software updates also checks digital signatures before applying changes. If it doesn't, then I would want the automatic firewall on the router to block all up
