I don't think this is true. Timing attacks are only really useful if you can change a single piece of data and analyze the time difference until you find the right value, over and over again. Like comparing a password. The unknown data

The problem with regulation isn't Uber. It's the extraordinary costs required to operate a taxi - mostly the $200k plate. If I can get a background check and a card certifying me to be allowed to work with children for about $50,

The second image is of IIS running on Windows, not Apache. Different software on different OSes. Regardless, it doesn't seem like parent is making the argument that the NT kernel isn't complicated - just that it is superior.

He said login. TeamViewer was always logged in and running in the background.

Yes, but the hacks have been happening for a longer period of time.

Happened to my friend about 3 weeks ago and he's a fairy savvy computer user. Had 5k extracted from PayPal which has just been recovered. All my friends have now uninstalled team viewer if they had it installed.

In these threads I see "larger developer base" when referring to javascript developers over python. I wonder if that's true, and by what margin. For what it's worth I would imagine more javascript devs would write plugin

I'm sort of OK with most discussion based questions and answers being shut down. This particular question is well asked, is focused (i7 pipeline de-optimizations), and has a few answers that have very specific information related to th

Eh, it's gear he's actually using. Jeff has a massive audience, so if he's going to be advocating for tech he's researching and using then I have no problem with affiliate links. To suggest that's all these blog pos

You don't have to actually post anything. I use Twitter to consume information, not to blast it. Sometimes I'll retweet a project or maybe post an interesting bit of code, but that's unlikely to attract any negative attention

I think it depends who you choose to follow. Twitter can be different things to different people. I've never been a big fan of Twitter myself, but I follow about a dozen programmers and a few sporting brands and I get some value from t

Oh you're right. At least it's not Django. I thought I remembered looking at it a few weeks ago and seeing it was Django.

For what it's worth, the warehouse ( https://pypi.io/ ) is the successor to the current PyPI that Donald is currently working on. Is the UI here closer to something you'd like? Edit: It's not Django, my mistake

Another great idea for sabotage. Plausible deniability for awful suggestions.

I was wondering if the joke was a little too dry, but yes it's a joke. Our workplace recently converted to an "agile workspace" and I have sales people sitting across from me regularly on the phone. :(

See hotdesking. An agile work environment lets you avoid this confrontation by picking up and going to sit between two of the sales team.

It felt like playing an interactive movie to me. There was nothing particularly amazing about the gameplay, but everything felt right in that game. There was nothing I could fault in it (from memory, so within reason). I still remember my r

I'm a very happy Grafana user. The move to a server based app worried me at first, but it's been humming along nicely the entire time. It's a shame that graphite is still so hard to install/configure (at least from rhel

The first time I heard about this was from Joel Spolsky of Fogcreek/Stackoverflow. It really changed how I've approached postmortems and encouraging those to really drive deeper into problem solving. http://www.joelonso

I'm sick of the meme but I agree with it. I think it needs to be put away for a little while because it's just noise. We know some people feel it's too slow for them. We don't need the same comment on every thread discus

Your idea is mostly right. Instead of a robot waiting in queue though you should receive the call with the information you already entered presented to the agent. Some companies do this.

That's sort of the foundation though right? The editor built into the electron app is completely different, suggesting that atom is theoretically able to achieve similar performance. I haven't used visual studio code myself, but d

I recommend others doing on call so I don't have to. I'm not an ops person, though I probably wouldn't mind some of the job, and hate being on call. I did it for a year at my current workplace (as a dev). All the problems I w
