It's not the first real competitor available to the public. Hopper Disassembler and Binary Ninja are both capable. They have been available for a few years. Binary Ninja is also collaborative if you get the enterprise edition: https:&

There are other reasons to build your own, especially for those who aren't just running web sites. One is security. Maybe you don't want to be on the internet, or are legally prohibited from being on the internet. One is location.

Suppose you wanted a per-computer license to run on Linux. IDASTACL is $979, getting you a disassembler for 32-bit only. It is possible to add up to 3 decompilers (ppc, x86, arm) for $2629 each. Getting all of this would be $8866. You can&#

Maybe you really can't afford it, but given the job opportunities this is a bit like saying that you can't afford college. The cost with all 5 decompilers is about $15,000. That is comparable in cost to a semester of college. It m

That is the case for companies. Individual humans can still buy named licenses.

This isn't an experiment that can be run both ways, but I find it seems to work. I've been here 13.5 years, starting from about 5 years of prior experience. Increases are irregular, but look to be about 7.3% compounded per year. N

We sort of hired one. Would you count industrial metal, alternative metal, or nu metal? He had a song that was nominated for a Billboard Music Award. So far, he has behaved well. We got him using a normal computer keyboard. This is better f

I think there is some sort of anti-astroturfing on glassdoor. The salary that they have for us is absurd. It's something like the starting pay at In-N-Out or Chick-Fil-A, for an experienced and specialized software job. I wonder where

There are huge problems with that data. It equates a degree in physics with a degree in romance novels. I feel strongly that the physicist is far more educated. Somebody with a pilot's license or a welding certification is considered t

The training and pentesting came later, saving the company. The company was created starting from early fuzzing research at Florida Institute of Technology. The whole point of the company was to fuzz things for software companies. That most

Well that puts a name to the mysterious device Ray showed me. Thanks. I recall it being larger, in a cube-shaped 2-story room. According to his sister, Ray was really held back by his lack of a PhD. He had an IQ of 180. I wonder why nobody

I know of a company, called Security Innovation, that tried this in 2002. It went very badly at times. They added training and pen testing, and today they bring in just $20 million per year. They opened an office in Seattle to fuzz for Micr

I doubt the whole concept is sustainable. FWIW though, I'm just a bit south of you, in Indialantic. Noting your interests: I had a fusion researcher in my family, Ray Dandl. According to his brother, Ray got the first "stable&quot

The mites are quite visible. I think a computer vision system could wipe them out. As bees leave or enter the hive, they pass by a camera. The computer determines their fate. Infected bees get sucked up, zapped with an electric spark, or za

Yes, the support is excellent. Sometimes they will even email you a new version with your requested bug fix. Note that $3000 lacks the decompilers, of which there are 5 available. The total price with all of those is about $15,000.

Remote work goes against having the best work-life balance. When you walk out the door of the office, work should be over and done with until you return. Taking work home should be impossible. Paid overtime helps greatly. It discourages the

I'm guessing that would beat the old Ford Triton V8 5.4 L (330 cu in) SOHC 2V V8 that is in my E-350 van. Extra power would be great, but it really needs AWD to avoid just spinning the rear wheels in mud or slush. Assuming AWD, moving

You can't have small ones due to the market-distorting effects of the CAFE standard for fuel economy. Small pickups are worse than little compact sedans, but would get lumped in with them and mess up the manufacturer's average fue

If the company is being logical about this: the more perks a company has, the higher the local taxes. If the employees would all be spending money on something, it is better for the company to buy it. That keeps the money from being taxed a

Sure thing, $40,000 to $900,000. Useful? Suppose it isn't yet decided if you will be a "Junior Tester" or a "Senior Fellow Distinguished Engineer". The decision will be made after the interview. What does California

I don't think that is a good assumption. I can think of plenty of other reasons. 1. The answer depends on how well your interview goes. The salary range would have to include everything from a borderline beginner to a highly experience

Do you have a well-defined goal in terms of dollars and years? If not, you might always want a bit more money, and thus never quit. You'd miss out on the chance to raise a family. It's safest to get that done before age 30. No mat

That is truly a strange and different life. You must be very comfortable in crowds, without much concern for the fact that some other person could do something bad to you. Suburbia exists largely because other people disagree. These other p
