You nailed it. We used to joke that working in security was always chasing "zero". If you've done your job perfectly , an attack isn't successful, just like every other day. If they had stored passwords properly and h

Thanks for the reminder. I have a sprawling mess in my basement and have only done wire lacing once (it's trivial to do well, a little harder to do obnoxiously well) and had forgotten about lacing them -- it's perfect! I used to

I appreciate the devil's advocate and they're good points. The fact is, I was operating under an assumption that the "trap" wouldn't result in catching my two jobs; you are thinking the opposite. I can't argu

Interesting. I've never thought to host my web sites on Tor. I don't have very many that are strictly "mine" but that'd be something interesting to do if only to understand a little more about Tor.

I was reviewing the graph and was surprised at the rankings of things. Frankly, there's a lot more "not illegal" things going on in Tor than I would have expected. I expected there was a reasonable amount, but not represent

There were several good points in the post and one really bad one ("traps" which has been pointed out a few times). There are a few issues with "traps" that should be avoided (any kind, not just the one mentioned): (1) T

I had wondered if they were a large company or not. I have used them in the past and there was a specific reason that we picked them over AWS/Azure/Goober, but those details escape me. Based on the other comments, they don't

Completely. At the same time, those promotional credits are going to be used by guys like me who will have to decide if their services are worth having to spend an extended period of time explaining why "we're not recommending AW

I posted this because it interested me, but I have nothing to do with the project. I love shells, use `zsh`, mostly, but like to play around with other options. I was curious about: It has more features than echo, but it is not nec

The comments in this entry are harsher than I expected after having completed the article. I agree that the headline was a little misleading (maybe that's harsh, but perhaps a little click-baitey). He had one, sort-of peripheral stor

But you should consider not trying so hard. I suspect that's not going to be a popular thing for a lot of people. I agree with the advice but I'd re-word it slightly because -- at least for me -- it's not about try

Thank you for this. As someone who does not make a habit of hanging around academia, I have very little experience with Elsevier short of what I read here. However, as someone who worked in a large IT organization for a huge company and wr

If I'm understanding things correctly from the reading (which, let's be honest, that's an assumption on its own), the tl;dr seems to be that Mendeley heard about an open source product working on a set of importers that would
