   Isn't part of the beauty of app sandboxing in android how it leverages the concept of users in *nix OS? IRC, each app is considered a user to the OS. Does anyone know what they mean when they say that Apps will be sandboxed? It can&#x2

   I remember reading another comment on HN somewhere that broke down how project costs are different from employee costs. Something to do with employees being recurring expenses vs projects being somewhat fixed....I'm not going to do it

   I don't know what your reasons against are, but a big one for me is an infringement on one's right to assemble. I know it doesn't sound like much, but for a lot of communities (especially ones that may already be "target

   IMHO, I think this counters a philosophical point of open source software. The open code to the software we use should not be a handout or a gift ex post facto. The open code to the software should be an invitation: to collaborate on it, au

   Is HN actually based on this premise of winning? I come here to escape that premise in media (social or otherwise).

   I think this points out that the semantics of trusting the header (which is still a part of the message) at all is flawed and leads to implementations getting it wrong and leaving gaps for attackers to exploit.

   I think you are on the right track, but I would say that any payment that requires banks or card providers (or both) to act as agents of the exchange will ultimately have these qualities. It doesn't matter if you wrap it in a pretty bo

   Intuitively this becomes: if(foo) doX() doY(); Intuitively, as a someone who uses C style languages, this becomes: if(foo) doX(); doY(); Can someone confirm which intuition is correct? I ask because, to me: it not being intuitive is a probl

    I think in a country like the US, where news networks can push a political bias (not needing to give both sides of an issue equal coverage), without accountability, it requires consumers to do their own homework on issues. I guess the quest

    I think one thing that may help that I haven't seen mentioned yet, is to read the codebase you are working on (not all of it, unless it's smaller than a novel) Pick a certain starting point and follow it down the rabbit hole. Rins

    Is there some traceability on what input parameters were used in testing computer models? Is there a hypothetical world where the modeling software failed to show this scenario for the correct input parameters? Either way, I agree, based on

    I'm not taking a side on this specific situation, but shooting at a limb in a high stress, crowded situation would not be a wise shot. You would likely miss--and hitting someone that was not your target would not be good. Another comme

    I think the point is: unless the hacker is already aware of how to sell PII of this nature and how to move "good money" then a hack like this is for naught. Reading the mistakes made in the hack itself makes me wonder if black mar

    I've seen this with firewood in California. It probably costs the producer more to have someone there then it does losing a portion of stock to theft.

    I think OP was asking: even though there are best practices to follow when storing PII, how can we trust every private entity that stores our PII to be using those best practices?

    I see a lot of comparison of device makers, with regards to privacy, in this thread. I think this is a moot point, in that data is collected regardless of what company, service, device is used. The fact that the data is being collected is k
