Sometimes it can be safer to assume that something is completely insecure, than to assume ( incorrectly ) that it is. Not implementing any security on a product guarantees the former - outside of complete user incompetence. I would also s

For over a decade I wore blue jeans and black t-shirts ( The previous decade I just wore black ). It becomes a self reinforcing habit; I once wore a red t-shirt, and everyone commented on it as if it were the most hilarious and bizarre th

The emergence of the 'regressive left' wasn't something I expected either, but I think it's important to remember that ideology and methodology are not the same thing. For example, I've noticed in the last decade or

Copyright and patent attempt to protect you from others stealing your research & efforts involved in producing a product. If someone represents your idea as a number, and then copies it with the intention of using it for their own purpo

There's a significant difference between an interface which looks good as a feature of a scene, and an interface that looks good / is functional when it is occupying your entire attention..

Actually, you are allowed to carry a larger / fixed blade in the UK if you have a good reason to do so - for example, you are a butcher travelling to work premises, or you are e.g. going camping. Obviously, this is open to the interpr

I'd imagine applications even with a low res, blurry display might include directional indicators and notification lights in the periphery of the users vision. This would only require a ring of a few LEDs round the edge of the device
