Alternatively, they can patch both but the malware achieves persistence in firmware. Which may not even be a sign of particular sophistication, depending on what protections Barracuda had in place.

But you said "pain medication", many forms of which are sold OTC in Europe just like basically everywhere else. Now that you've narrowed it to "opioids", sure...

As he mentions in the post, the main issue is the 30-day timeframe to completely rethink the business model of the app and move enough users over to paying subscriptions to not go bankrupt when the first API access bill comes in. The sugges

It's clear that they don't want any of the third-party apps to pay them a cent. They want the third-party apps gone, and the users to move to the official app where they can be directly monetised by Reddit. There was never going t

You can be regulated as a bank by New York State meanwhile also be running an unregistered securities exchange. That is in fact what Gemini is doing, as the SEC has said.

The way this gets fixed in an org isn't by engineers winning fights with designers. It's by someone at a higher level deciding that they care about accessibility (or that they care about not getting sued), and introducing constrai

Every day the container ship is sitting outside port waiting to offload is a day it is not shipping goods, and I'm guessing a large container ship is a fairly expensive asset with a limited lifespan.

Eh? The "cosmic ray" (or similar upset) is roughly equally likely to affect any bit in the 32GB, so the chance of it appearing in the 1GB that you're using right now is 32 times smaller than the chance of it happening anywher

But bit flips may not be noticed any time soon in the disk cache, and when they are later noticed, may be wrongly attributed to disk failure. It's a different failure mode than a bit flip in some source code that you are about to compi

One bit per GB of RAM, not per GB of processed source code (most of your RAM is likely empty most of the time, or used for stuff where a bit flip is less likely to be noticed). However, it still seems like a high estimate to me.

Bowser was ordered by a court to pay $4.5m restitution to Nintendo after pleading guilty to two criminal charges (the specific charges he pled guilty to are unclear, but he was charged with fraud, DMCA circumvention, conspiracy and others).
