You need to roughly know desktop security (especially memory corruption, C/C++ insecurities), web application security, mobile application and networking security. Those are (again, roughly) the domains. If you want cybersecurity with

Looks like they fixed that fast after your comment. [domain]/../../../../../../../../etc/passwd is still possible though, which then makes getwifi.io/etc/passwd. Really, they shoul

I couldn't do it, but Snapchat's CEO turned down a cool $3 billion. It can be done.

It's not as much effort as it sounds. My home laptop has had Ubuntu, Mint, Mageia, Suse, Fedora, Arch, Windows 7, 8, OS X 10.7, 10.8, and just today, 10.9 on it in about a month (it's a mac). I have an external hard drive with all

What I think you and a lot of other posters are missing is the import of her paragraph about how diversity costs; when they were a freewheeling write-the-r-own-rules startup they could afford to blow off or ignore anyone who tried to lever

The two of you are doing two things at the same time. First, you're having an intellectually legitimate debate that's probably revealing some good counter points and offering valid, alternative perspectives on the broader issue. S

Let's keep some perspective. A second ship in one week carrying desperate, impoverished African migrants sunk of the coast of Italy yesterday. Many drowned. That is a tragedy. You wrote this under a throwaway account, so I think you

I emailed the author, Justine. I encourage everyone to do the same thing, with a heartfelt note about what you feel. It might make her day. I want to remind the more intellectually-inclined of this community that this does not need to be an

Why, I wonder, did you choose to completely mischaracterize the content of the article? That's a little unfair. The article's title frames the story in reference to the glass ceiling. That the grandparent comment used the word &

At the risk of sounding insensitive, am I the only one who didn't find any real sexism in this article? I was expecting this "rock star" to exhibit sexism by promptly joining after he was told he'd be reporting under a m

Yeah that's the one! I probably should have just googled for it, but yep, that's it. My memory was a bit hazy.

There's another great one from SMBC about how to tell the difference between a math enthusiast from a mathematician. I won't try to find it since I'm on mobile, but it's just as good.

That's not an entirely fair perspective. We're not just talking about aspiring actors and models. People with legitimate business degrees are forced into (frequently unpaid) internships just so they can work in the less glamorous

You're completely right. My girlfriend had two unpaid internships, and will have another before she graduates college (her college mandates her last semester be entirely a documented unpaid internship). She described it exactly as you

Brudgers comment is at top because community thought it was worthy. Brudgers comment garnered 120 posts, meaning it sparked interest and posters contributed to that discussion. This is the underlying message of HN. Discussing. What you sa

I grew up poor as well. Thankfully, my mother's work paid off by the time I was a teenager and we moved up to middle-class. I'm sure you're harboring legitimate resentment, but your rant against armchair philanthropists seems

This article is crap. Here's a good rule of thumb - if you could write this entire article (a "1 min read") without having ever built a startup before, and not having the apparent authority someone like Ev Williams has, then

Because lists filled with vague, circular advice are easily digestible and codifiable, which leads to page views and a validation of the author's authority.
