I left programming to get into application security, and I love it. There is still some programming and a lot of reading code, but it's a million times more enjoyable than writing endless REST APIs for me.

I believe it's possible, but I don't believe the show Oak Island is a credible source for evidence of it.

Even though they weren't able to see the offline arguments, it's still telling about a project when the arguments are brought out into the open.

Abusive can also be a result of continued and systematic unnecessary comments and critiques of irrelevant things. I agree that we should be tactful and careful with complaints and criticisms of others, it's very easy to say things with

I agree with you 100%. I actually turned in my 2 weeks notice at the development shop I was at over this, yesterday was my last day. Systematic bullying of junior devs by the manager, a culture of "because I said so" from the top

If western intelligence knows about this and wants to get it off the black market, why don't they just buy it themselves? Surely the criminals selling it don't care where the money comes from.

What if they, hypothetically, developed their code with a separate toolchain/IDE and didn't use xcode at all? Are they still bound by the terms of it, or is it the users compiling the app to put on their phones bound by it? I&#x27

It's also possible to have issues with the model but still participate. I've spent the last few years working on a .NET stack doing Android and iOS apps. I'd really prefer building on linux, but sometimes you make compromises

I use Quassel, it works fine for me (Windows 7, Windows 10, Linux, and Android). I like it but it gets updated kind of slowly.

As someone that used to hate Apple and still does, I use apple products (don't buy them myself). There are many reasons people use Apple products. From the support to the high quality of their products. There's also the fact that

Poetry is about painting images with words. Often poetry will do this by not saying what is actually happening or the thought it intends to create in the reader. A program is written to perform math, and it is generally considered bad to wa

As many times as the world has come close to nuclear war and mutually assured destruction since the end of WW2, it's actually one of the most reassuring things about humanity that people refused orders to fire missiles every time. I&#x

I think the line about "Mimic substitutes common ASCII characters for obscure homographs" has it backward. Shouldn't it say Mimic substitutes obscure homographs for common ASCII characters?

In many high level languages a break, continue, pass, that sort of thing (where you want to skip or escape a loop iteration) is usually implemented with a goto as well. Also, a common use of goto in C is when you're doing something in

"There are 1.2 m people on various stages of their watch list" :-O That's absolutely terrifying. I wonder how many of those are American citizens.

How does that work with the "time shifting" laws that allowed VCRs to be used? Isn't this basically the same thing?

Awesome. I've been wanting to use the RFID pet id tags for a feeder that would block out other pets and only allow a certain amount of food (by mass) to be eaten by a specific animal. I'll be going over how they implemented it and

Does doing this in silicon mean we may start to see mass produced qubit ICs? You'd have to keep coherence between all of the quantum circuit elements to actually have a calculation carried out properly, wouldn't you? Perhaps this

I think they have a payment plan, at least. It says there's a standard payment plan, but it doesn't say how long you have to pay it off or what the interest is.

All I can figure is the game is trying to find better ways to manage resources for these treatments and trials. That or it's training algorithms to identify TB? I'm really not sure how this game helps, perhaps that is by design, t

Many dimple locks can be picked with just some tension on the cylinder and a ball pick. The common cheap Bell brand lock at wal-mart or amazon [1] is easily picked like this. All you do is stick the ball pick in the back of the keyway, appl

This is actually something you can do with Tabletop Simulator on steam, as I'm using it for that exact purpose. It even uses JSON as the underlying data structure. Granted, it's proprietary and not free.

Both interviews I did with Amazon were pretty poor. I am a little upset by their advocacy and use of visa workers, as though there are no American engineers capable of doing the work. Facebook and other tech giants are guilty of this too.

There are some times where your guilt and the law are ambiguous, and so who's to say that you do or don't deserve a ticket? Also, you're welcome to pay your tickets and not fight them, often the cost of hiring a lawyer is mor

This was one of the big motivating factors for me getting a nexus 6 (aside from the size) and putting it on the fi network. I got 2 updates in the period of a week. I think the problem is vendors and carriers wanting to modify and inject th

This is the reason that FOSS and being able to change the code yourself is so valuable. Nobody has time to wait 2 years for a fix. By the time the patch comes out, it will break all of the workaround code written to fix Oracle's bug in

I can't bring myself to use iPhone because of the walled garden. Sorry, but I shouldn't have to pay $99 and own a licensed mac computer running OSX just to develop an app and test it on my phone. Android has a couple editors now t
