Help me understand where I went wrong. As I see it, I did not ignore everything GP said. I read all of their original statements, over half of the evidence, and their 2 additional comments. I admitted that I did not have 30 minutes to watch

I was willing to give your post a fair shake because I generally respect all HN posters, and because you included citations. Out of convenience, I skipped the videos and went straight for the emails. Podesta did not say "US not a democ

Security is not pass/fail. What threats are enabled by this method? Are there mitigations? Are there alternatives? It would be a mistake to group all curl pipes. Does it require elevated privileges? Is it served over TLS? Does it do an

On my programmer hand, I can see myself making a similar technical choice. We have auto-playing videos, we shouldn't count the views less than 3 seconds because that wasn't really an intentional view. But that means we should also

I avoid loyalty to any particular brand, but Pelican makes incredibly durable cases that are unrivaled by anything I (and many anecdotal others) have seen. If you really need to protect something, they are worth the money.

From a few days ago, grsecurity has a different opinion on the new security work in the kernel, calling into question the implementation of both the new write-only protection and KASLR from 3.14: https://news.ycombinator.com&#x2F

As a developer, it means I can now test my software directly on RHEL. CentOS is RHEL with different branding (and now supported by RedHat), but there might be small differences that creep in. Customers like hearing that you've tested i
