" nearly impossible to write useful exploit code" sounds like a worthy challenge to some people I know.

Feel like this is an infomercial directed at me. Instead of coming on at 3AM during a TV movie, it's on in the middle of my web browsing. That said, I've had some success buying random self published books of the interwebs (look

He gave us a bit of a run-through presentation of his tactics for the latest shmoocon CTF. It seemed like it was a combination of time, skill, more time, patience... and skill? The world of reversing is so beyond my ken, but I love having

Anyone who's interested we (Endgame) are hiring. Check the careers page and get in touch. I'm on the data science team, but we have a variety of openings in DC and SF.

Read this in 1999. Still went to grad school in 2004 after working in .coms of that era. No regrets.

I feel like the defunct PLEAC site page on Haskell sums up most autodidactic folks experience with Haskell: http://pleac.sourceforge.net/pleac_haskell/index.html Oh cool, you can do everything, right up to something us

Aww that's sad. What I liked about the Nest smoke alarm was that I could check which of my various houses was on fire, right from my smartphone. Ugh, guess will have to wait for version 2.0.

I've had these two books for a while. He updates them rather regularly and they contain exactly what the author states. Python isn't supposed to have TIMTOWTDI, but when you start getting in the weeds you figure out bad ways to

I found it a bit of a restriction, but ideally I'm not shipping code with unused variables, so why put them in. In the worst case I'd viciously comment things out, then uncomment them and add them back where I'd deleted once

As a white person thrown into psychiatric solitary a couple times, I'd say that he got pretty cushy treatment compared to what black folks get. No trial, out in 12 hours? Try that if you're black. Sounds crazy, but considering h

Love whitelines. I'm kind of a notebook fanboy though, so I'm always trying others. :) Whitelines are the most unique by far.

Someone has not read many mathematical books on a Kindle (or even PDFs on an iPad), let alone seen the intricate typesetting of TAoCP. For an epub the configurable font size alone wreaks havoc with mathematical typesetting, and converting

I jumped on arango, looking for a small graphdb I could run locally on my machine. They've since moved it to a much wider scope. Turns out I abandoned that project idea (like most... :D), but I think Arango is sufficiently unique to

Interesting look at the lower bound that got a lot of bitcoiners angry. The comments are actually pretty good as the initial author did miss some of the finer points on bitcoin to which he responds in the comments. http://neweco

They are linked at the hip in many ways. Bitcoin is a speculative asset, but it is also a really well thought out accounting ledger and transaction protocol for that asset. Plus m-of-n transactions, watermarking, etc... lot's of cools

I agree it was a great post from someone who doesn't necessarily understand the finer points of bitcoin, but does understand money writ large. I think the comments section actually ironed out a fair amount of the misinfo, etc. I quit

Oddly that mania lasted less than 12 months. Bitcoin has been on the rise for years, is used for more than decoration and won't rot...

If it weren't for the extraneous window decoration you end up with. I'm good with using Moom to size and shape my windows on the fly on OSX. I've been relatively happy tiling on Linux though, but customizing keyboard shortcu
