Although you probably should factor in the possibility of several years of compulsory $0.30/hr labour, plus forfeiture of all your ill-gotten gains (and probably some healthily-gotten ones too, they're not so fussy) And that'

A similar (and undoubtably simpler, although still often infuriating) but still fun logic/programming game is Manufactoria[1]. Spoiler: Vg'f onfvpnyyl cebtenzzvat n uggcf://ra.jvxvcrqvn.bet/jvxv/Gnt_flfgrz [1]

I read it as "ask a bunch of our guys for what they think it's worth, and pay out the average of those recommendations", but I'd have expected that to be pretty standard practice for any serious & non-obvious case.

My initial understanding is that the XXE flaw allows the attacker to read local files, or make network requests via the remote host (essentially, proxying them), but still only delivered to his client, rather than actually modifying or crea

It's increasingly common in modern ICs (SoCs and microcontrollers especially) to have only the minimum required connections be permanently assigned to physical pins. The rest of the pins are connected to some routing logic which in tu

The obvious solution is of course a bit of tape, but that's less convenient when you do actually want to use the camera. I notice that the EFF have some nifty little 'ultra-removable adhesive' stickers[1] that might do better

Thanks for your constructive reply. Your exact statement was: > Can data be transferred via acoustics over a 2 conductor 16 gauge wire at the speeds memory is accessed or is sent to the CPU? No Which is of course true, if you're

Ah, the Maginot Line[1] argument. Given the sheer number of possible emissions channels, are you proposing they all be universally protected against in hardware? Or that there should be special classes of 'protected against $FOO'

This is a very weak dismissal. Have you read the actual details they claim? Side-channel attacks (like power analysis) in the presence of other activity are well established. Electrical signals causing audible frequency output are also well

Because if you stop serving up the remote reference before it gets requested by a particular client, it won't be there. If it's archived {immediately,on first request} permanently thereafter, there's now another copy outwith

Unless I'm missing something important, it's locking so the same page can only be rendering once at a time; if another request that would cause a rebuild comes in while a previous rebuild is still in progress, it gets bounced.

No, only views which hit a stale copy of the rendered page and have to call that render() function. Normal views would (I imagine, I haven't traced it back) use the get_rendered() instead, which checks that the cached version is curren

In a previous loss of Co-60 in Mexico (back in 1983), the material ended up being melted with recycled steel into rebar and used in all sorts of construction, until it was discovered largely by accident when a delivery truck carrying contam

I don't believe Co-60 is capable of activating (making radioactive) other materials to any significant degree, so the danger is really only from direct exposure to the source material. So you get irradiated, but you don't become r
