We don't know how and over how much time the data was exfiltrated.

A semi-relevant tip, instead of "HEAD^^^^^^", you can write "HEAD~6" to the same effect.

Not all projects are "business-able" I think. A nice tool with an identifiable user base, a nice UI, etc. is easier to market than a NTP library even if the latter has more probability to be critical and to get installed in billio

Who's got a receiver apart from NGOs there? It's not like they can make them enter the Gaza strip right now.

Ah that would sure be big if true. But I don't think CIA had had to make anything up if they wanted something against him. He had a long enough career in French politics and as a Jacques Chirac's sidekick to have had time to get i

Not necessarily. The heart is autonomous but is nevertheless connected to the central nervous system and can be controlled by the brain to some extent. It could be the same for the pulmonary system. By the way, you can hold your breath for

The funny thing about all that "decentralization" and the fact that the heart doesn't need the central nervous system to work is that the pulmonary system does need it. So on the one hand, it's great, your heart can func

It reminds me of a quote in a Doctor Who episode: "[Life is] Nature's way of keeping meat fresh.".

Good point. I play chess and some players end up thinking that cheating allows them to reach their real level and that it's just bad luck or conspiracy that prevent them to get to that level without resorting to cheating. Talk about co

The incentives to cheat in a professional competition are more obvious since the money you earn is related to your performance. In the case of AoC, the only objective incentive I can think about is impressing a recruiter. Maybe it's en

I use OpenDNS. 208.67.222.222 doesn't roll off the tongue (or fingers) as easily as 1.1.1.1 but if you use it frequently enough, you'll remember it.

Is it possible that the subscription came with a modem lended by the company which the customer had to send back to cancel their subscription? I think nowadays in the US people tend to buy their router (people more knowledgeable than me, pl

Not the parent commenter but to chime in: I don't want to be a moral judge but I'd rather give money to someone actually poor than to someone richer than me that just lives beyond their means.

Not all 5-character long strings are usable though. They have to be pronounceable as a single word and understandable over radio as much as possible.

From what I gathered from the article, the input WAS valid. It's the software that was unable to handle a specific case of valid input.

If a company already uses Google APIs, integrating a new API from Google may be easier than integrating a new provider. So for Google, there's certainly a market, even if they have to source the raw data.

I'm reading again Henry V, by Shakespeare. The first scene starts with some realpolitik where the archbishop of Canterbury (a Catholic bishop then) distracts the king from passing a law that would strip the Church from a large part of

"this game is wordle with colored pegs instead of letters" For some reason, that sentence from a young PhD student made me feel old instantly.

I'd love to be a stationer, then add a book section (for rare, old or special books), and maybe if things go well enough, have a small tea house section.

Funnily, and ironically, enough, as a native French speaker, I would never translate "ce ne sont pas mes oignons" (litt. "those are not my onions") as "it's not my cup of tea". To me, it actually means &qu

"At research level" is the keyword here. We've both the second highest number of Fields medalists and a frankly low score at the 2018 PISA evaluation (especially in comparison to other European countries). The maths education

There's not necessarily a rational explanation for every human behavior. Most interpersonal interactions rely on long-established and very obscure traditions. It shapes society because it unites people sharing the same culture while ex

I think it would only makes sense if the target system on which the script may run has `zip` but not a version of `tar` supporting the `-z` option. That's certainly unlikely to ever happen. There's also `tar -cvf - | zip blah.zip
