Pretty dumb move, he may end up resigning over this. Also there's no reason a CEO should have this level of access.

From the context it is clear he was referring to previous generation rectangular USB ports.

The fact that certain devices cab be damaged by the wrong cable is inexcusable.

Your private key should remain password protected, I don't think anyone here is recommending a passwordless login. Also usually with ssh you are more worried about the remote server being compromised than your local client machine.

Also when writing C you don't have to be 'an experienced assembly programmer' to write performant and portable code. That is one of the driving points of a HLL: you don't need to know as much minutiae to write good maint

This looks like it is about a similar area (Russia's far-east tiaga) as the Tiger book by John Vaillant. Similar story though with much different results: human activity basically drove a particular tiger to very wild and dangerous beh

For the past 3 years I've adapted to the point where I just don't answer numbers I don't have in my address book (unless I'm expecting a call). If I don't know you and you don't leave a message than I likely wo

If you're a coffee drinker prep the coffee pot the night before. It is nice to just get up and hit a button. If you're super lazy they have coffee pots with start timers on them, too.

Wayland was planned as default for Fedora 24 but has been postponed[1]. I don't think it is on by default in any flagship distributions yet. 1: https://blogs.gnome.org/mclasen/2016/03/04/why-wayland-

What does implementation details have to do with expectations? You can't just say the general public's expectations don't matter because they don't understand the implications of network routing. Do Tor users expect thei

Look beyond the "standard online outlets". Reach out to contacts if you have them (friends/mentors from College and your personal life). If you know specifically what you want to do and you want to stay in your current are, s

Yes, and it isn't actually "God Mode" (there's no special privileges). It is just a master control panel folder. You name the folder with whatever you put preceding the dot.

I don't think so. His face was fixated on his cell phone while he idled backwards for a bit. Then he finally looked out the back window and finished backing up, then pulled forward.

Yesterday in a parking lot I witnessed a guy backing out with his face buried in his cellphone (still facing forward). So basically he backed up without looking or even glancing at his mirror.

Not exactly true, I'd wager most kindle owners don't bother with piracy. I did finally setup OverDrive with my local library, however.

It says they're accepting feedback until August 16th... So until 12 days ago.

Edit: I was wrong on all counts, see chuckup comment below. This happens after boot in cooperation with the OS. Encryption and secure boot are irrelevant. I presume this type of firmware enabled OS modification will not be able to work with

It is probably more of a desire to reduce the effects of RSI and prevent jumping all over the keyboard. We don't necessarily write code at break-neck speeds, but we do need to use modifiers and special keys more than the average keyboa

- OpenBSD didn't handle anything yet. They do not support UEFI or GPT. You have to boot in BIOS-emulation mode. - BIOS emulation is not a required by the UEFI spec. You can buy laptops today that are UEFI-only.

It was a pretty good overview, the secureboot stuff was needlessly condescending. Referring to UEFI as the "BIOS" is incorrect but is used commonly in the "IT World" (along with loads of other incorrect stuff...). The BI

I'm not really an advocate for the GPL, but I think when people express this sentiment they are going out of their way to misunderstand things. The 'limits' imposed by the GPL just limit people from reducing the freedoms prov

Has there been any analysis from network/security communities posted to HN on the Sony hacks? All I've seen is reporting and opinion pieces, none that attempted to do research. This is the closest I've been able to find, some

My first foray into programming was also QuakeC, though I didn't really think of it as programming at the time. I lived in a rural area with very poor network access so I actually got most of the QuakeC tooling and mods from CDs purcha
