See my edit. You have fingers pointed at him, an unusual coincidence, and a background of being arrested by the FBI due to DDoS attacks he did when he was 16. Would you really be "surprised" if you find out he was the culprit, giv

I would just ban the ips for 24hrs if I detect an IP that is part of a ddos. After that people will wise up and unplug their nanycam/toaster/iotwhatever

Why can't Google/Apple/FB et al get together and start blacklisting them? if it gets bad enough, that might be the only chance (good luck getting a random Moldovian ISP to blacklist their spammers)

The manufacturer might be in another country or bankrupt. You should go after the user and then he might go after the manufacturer or his insurance if he wants. But on more realistic terms, my hope is that if this gets really bad, then a co

I think Assange doesn't care that much who is elected, as long as it's not Hillary (because of the things she did against him and the things she promised to do). In this case his only choice is Trump, but it could have been others

Given his attitude, Trump seems way more likely to invade other countries and n general sable rattle. Also, I wouldn't call what Obama did sable rattling. Russia did invade several countries in the last years (Georgia, Ukraine, and may

If things get too bad, can cloudfare pool with google, etc. and just block the IPs of those affected? (until someone fills a captcha)

If you were to use deep learning in-house for smallish problems, would you still use tensorflow plus a batch of GPUs, or something different? I can't take stuff to the cloud for regulatory reasons, and in order to contract w/a sta

I've lived in a suburban setting most of my life until a few years. Sure, there are advantages, but all in all not worth it. I've spend way more time doing stuff out of the house than what I would spend in my garage or extra large

Wait so Atom uses 825mb of RAM to open a 5mb xml file with no highlighting? (compared to 64mb for Sublime and 34mb for notepad++) My newish X1 Carbon has 8gb of ram (soldered); this probably means a few Atom instances are enough to use all

I've been an extensive Pandoc user and wrote my thesis, website, etc. on Markdown. However, extending it was hard, as you either had to a) learn haskell, or b) learn the Pandoc internals in order to use pandocfilters [1]. To solve this

I agree that copy-pasting CSV files is undesirable, but there are several Pandoc filters, both in Haskell and Python, that allow you to embed CSVs into tables without much hassle.
