In theory sure. In practice (especially if you don't know your connection is being used like this, as the article suggests), if law enforcement turn up at your door to take all your kit as evidence in a crime, they'll likely take

I'm not sure that's a bad thing, if I'm honest. Strong top-down direction can work (e.g. Steve Jobs at Apple) but it can also cause ossification (e.g. Blackberry) where a company won't sacrifice an existing product to mo

In the current centralized markets, stablecoins are used as fiat on-ramps, there's no real need there for a crypto backed stablecoin for that kind of role. I'm sure you could have one, but in the case of Tether, that's not w

It's entirely possible to have a stablecoin and indeed others exist. The key to a stablecoin however, is trust. Users have to trust that their holdings are actually backed by real fiat currency as that's the promise of the stable

So on the YAML DoS one (CVE-2019-11253) it breaks down like this. If you're using an unpatched version, anyone who can POST YAML to the Kubernetes API server can chew a fairly large amount of CPU/RAM. How badly this effects you,

Errors and mistakes are somewhat inevitable in larger projects, and ASVS covers a lot of ground. One of the benefits is that it's open source, so you're free to contribute to improve it.

It's interesting to see this from a MacOS release and the security complaints are similar to what's been seen about recent versions of Windows. To me, both are a manifestation of the idea that these two Operating Systems are movin

AFAIK there's a significant caveat to that, which is that you only get unlimited windows containers, if you're using process isolation. If you're using VM isolation, you need licenses for the containerized applications.

I do some work in the k8s arena. Seen a couple of large corps using Windows containers, either for containerizing legacy applications, or for moving an existing Windows platform into containers to help reduce cloud bills.

I'd say it's partly VCs but also the fact that, once they stop growing quickly, they need to start turning a profit, to justify a big valuation. As long as they're still growing they can blame any losses on the costs of expan

For me brexit has, for many people, been a case of them voting against their own best interests, due to believing what they're being told by politicians. The Leave camp, during the campaign, were very strong on the idea that leaving wo

That's just not true. If the DUP and the conservatives had voted to pass Theresa May's deal they absolutely had the numbers to pass it, especially given that on each of the votes there were a small number of Labour MPs who voted

However London's underground system also has unions, so if the suggestion is that it's more efficient than New York, the implication is that it's unlikely to be the presence of a union causing the issues.
