In this specific case, it's quite possible that the gate agent, being a costumer service worker, didn't want a fuss. If someone comes to a gate agent with a boarding pass, they're most likely not double-spending the pass, and

Interesting. Thanks for the explanations!

What work does "individually" do in this last sentence? Can 2 evil services collaborate (or more realistically 2 non-evil services get breached) to extract part of the secret? What is the mechanism keeping me from setting up n rea

Maybe. It seems automattic is realizing that there is value in being "the established service that does what the giants are doing but isn't the giants". Personally and I think the HN crowd would agree with me, I see the value

Don't x64 binaries have to be 4k-aligned or something like that? I remember a video about runnable qr codes where this was a major point because they had to do trickery to make windows run binaries that were less than that.

They very much did, for a long time. Think of how easily enumerable phone numbers are, it's insane that you don't receive hundreds of ads per day.

A lot. It's the same reason amazon doesn't sell servers and instead gives you access to a single instance that everyone pretends is the same but in reality is massively transient.

Jitsi is a video calling platform (that you can self host also), it's mostly used for business-related video calls.

Sure, but as long as apple will play hardball like they're clearly doing, they could very well enforce app store rules as app signing rules and it'd be years before the eu would force them to stop, not even counting on the fact th

Well, except that they do. TFA says that the clipboard app in question had to include a map because it requires a dirty workaround to stay active in the background, at apple's demands. Yes, they're not "app store rules"

Yes, but you'd not be the one buying the tickets, your employer would. As we know, prices that can be expensed out have a tendency to be considerably larger.

Harsh judgement maybe but to me paying $500 for tickets to a convention about anything is drinking the kool-aid about that thing.

This doesn't even need to be a hypothetical. We know that the attacked currently do not need to do this, because they don't. Darwin's law is very much in effect for scams of all types.

Good thing browser aren't able to display content of random unvetted third parties in exchange for money on any website you visit too :) Adblock is a security measure at this point.

Steam simply stores games in it's install folder, and while downloading the (compressed) game files it keeps them fragmented in a separate directory. As far as I can tell it doesn't employ special low-level APIs, because on lower

Often times you'll find that consumer drives that are limping around do fail smart checks and would absolutely flash a red light and send out a monitoring alert were they in an enterprise enclosure. While there is probably truth to wha

In my experience with enterprise SSDs (which yeah aren't the same but that's what I have to offer), SSDs with sequential serial numbers and identical on-times, in the same RAID array, can have wildly different actual endurance. So

Rainbolt also uses car meta in specific scénarios (Kenya is obviously a big one), it's just that it's obviously less impressive so it doesn't make it into viral videos. If you watch streams it's quite evident he's v

False dichotomy much? It doesn't have to be a motivated state actor pulling the strings from the begging. It could also just be some guy, who decided he didn't care anymore and either wanted to burn something or got paid by someon

Easyanticheat is Linux compatible provided the developers have chosen to enable it. Embark has done so like a month after 1.0. I don't expect VM performance would be too bad provided I went with the appropriate options, but thankfully

Maybe it's just because I do that a lot, but imo potential candidates that are HN readers already know how to do this, if there are no gotchas. I find leetcoee considerably harder.

Kind of cool, but also consider that you will outlive your machine and probably Gmail too.

I get where you're going, but also consider the level is 17 seconds long. It's not unreasonable to think he just ran it a few times until the clocks decided to cooperate.

I don't think there's much of one. The concept in itself isn't really useful, I've never seen someone go "you know the real problem with sshd? It's too bloated". It is slightly useful to put in smaller dev

It tries. Accelerometer-based positioning is best used with camera displacement, which isn't used in Google maps driving mode (though there was? Is? An experimental on-foot mode that showed directions in AR). the accel-based positionin
