I really enjoy these fun thought experiments. The only thing I didn't see clarified though is whether the die was loaded using the water only once, or whether they re-loaded the die every night during the week they were testing.

The law of unintended consequences says you'll end up killing off mosquitoes, related insects and thing that feed on them like birds and small reptiles.. slowly eliminating large portions of the food chain.

HSBC literally told drug cartels how to alter forms in order to bypass security scans done to detect money laundering. It's safe to assume that not all banks are as altruistic as one would hope.

This makes sense, but for me the question becomes.. why would bot creators choose Edge/IE and not some other browser? Random chance? As a sidebar, I really enjoy when authors throw interesting colloquialisms that I've never heard

(1) Copy a coin that already exists (filecoin, etc.) (2) Get wealthy investors.. be good at powerpoint and bullshitting. (3) Pre-mine a bunch of your coin. Don't respond to anyone that calls you out on this. (4) Hype the shit out of it

It's always good to use Occam's razor, but it works both ways. Even a cursory glance of the single bullet theory doesn't pass a sniff test. (a single bullet that bounces around the bodies of two different people, and comes o

Seems like they're missing support for a lot of algorithms. It's a good step to be sure, but not a replacement for Putty by any means.

I agree with you, however when you get paid is irrelevant. It's just a matter of having a clear objective and guidelines scoped out in a contract.

As a final note we’d like to thank the BoringSSL developers for the great work they poured into the project and for the help they provided us along the way. Seems like they are working pretty close together and got something out of the de

I agree with the general direction of your argument, but wholeheartedly disagree that this doesn't constitute "planning", and find your de-emphasis of 'using the aircraft in a covert operation to attack the US', dis

Before this article was published I don't think it was alleged that Kaspersky ever did anything. All the public knew is that allegedly Israel hacked Kaspersky and noticed the Russian government using Kaspersky's tools to try and d

"similar diet" .. All of the Amish communities I know produce all of their own food. I never see them as customers in restaurants or buying anything other than basic ingredients in stores. I'm sure it happens, but it would b

I've never seen Amish consuming pre-packaged anything. They have an abundance of home-grown food. Cigarettes though.. the youth still love them.

I know your comment is mostly tongue-in-cheek, as presumably you'd have an extra opener. One extra idea here would be to integrate this with IFTTT or something similar where you tell it to send an e-mail automatically when you reach a

The same assumptions are made in the EU, the only difference is that the employee is let go, but still continues to receive his salary for some months. Think of it more like a severance package and it makes more sense.

For the worker it's actually great. It means that if the company wants to fire you they still need to pay your salary for at least the next three months. Often times, especially in IT, when people are let go, it's often important

Likely security. It's not mutually exclusive to helping people with their future prospects. We know nothing about severance, job assistance, etc. You can't really infer anything about this subject from that tweet.

I regret mentioning VPN. Most people don't VPN with their phones, it's possible, but most people don't. They use their phone to access their company e-mail and sometimes other services which are open on the internet already.

A large tech company allowing cellphones on their internal network sounds extremely bizarre. Cellphones should be on an untrusted/guest wireless connection, if they need access to corporate resources they should access them over the in

Ideally you want both exercise sessions and "smaller daily activities". For exercise, a great way to spend your time is the bike. It's great transportation, great views, and makes you feel good. If biking outside or to/f

You could substitute Apple with Wal-Mart in your comment and every bit would be just as true. Sometimes forcing your supply chain to pinch every penny works out the best for your shareholders.. sometimes focusing on quality products pays of
