Yahoo owns about 24% of Alibaba, a company that's worth ~$150B (varies widely on who you talk to). They are reducing their position by 5-10%, which translates into anywhere from $5B to $20B in cash.

Sorry I should have been more clear - I meant the former case of finding vulnerabilities in a website/API/web-service/etc. Your answer was comprehensive in either direction though, and thank you

Good to know, thank you. What in your opinion is the best way for someone to submit a security vulnerability (the sort which could land them into legal trouble, they don't have permission to be penetration-testing, could be viewed as m

Ah, if it's indeed related to fraud that's a fine reason generally. I'm worried about a company restricting usage to resources which you have been allocated, as I thought we were well past the problems of shared hosts with th

No, it's not. I assume you're incorrectly referring to the Stolen Valor Act (of 2013, as the earlier one was struck down for violating the First Amendment). That law specifically handles cases in which someone claims they are a re

Side-note: Apache 2.4 finally has an event-driven mpm. A little late, as nginx rules the web now, but it's still nice to see they finally realized their style didn't scale.

Correct. The Marines desired a plane capable of VTOL and when DOD forced the idea of a singular fighter, they said "okay but we need VTOL" (and the other branches had their own operational needs), and thus we have this great-at-no
