And it's safer still to have the vulnerability fixed in a week instead of a month. Or 2. Or 6.
Presumably you have figures to back this up - That demonstrate that vulnerabilities that are publicly announced cause less damage through being fixed quickly than those that are disclosed only to the manufacturers?
Or at least you have figures to indicate how much more quickly publicly disclosed vulnerabilities are fixed that non publicly disclosed vulnerabilities.
Because I certainly can demonstrate some evidence that vulnerabilities are exploited considerably more after they are revealed than before.
Good point. From now on, I'm only going to allow those blackhats that don't know of the vulnerability to access my services.
And that's totally missing the point. The ones who didn't know of the flaw but wanted to access vulnerable servers are now going to be able access vulnerable servers.
You have a narrow view of reality. How can you know that no one knows of something before it's officially revealed?
You don't. So you behave as though they probably already know. Just because they might know doesn't mean you should make sure they know. It's safer if you assume they know when they don't know than if you know they know.
I really love the Full public disclusure advocates. They seem to have a romantic view of the black hats. Rather than a selection of small groups, they seem to imagine a vast international consipracy.
The justification seems to be that they might already know of the vulnerability. A weak argument if ever there was one. Just because some black hats know of it doesn't mean all of them do. And there's no evidence that any of them know of the vulnerability before the flaw is revealed.
We change from a possibility that some blackhats know of a flaw to a certainty that all blackhats know of the flaw.
And if there's evidence to counter their claims, the full disclosure advcates will come up with the most ludicrous scenarios.
Recently there was evidence that they did not, after a virus was released that exploited a recently reveled vulnerability. I pointed this out. The explanation was that the blackhats already knew of it but were being cagey. Since it was now public, they had to exploit it as much as possible before it's patched. Of course - occams razor would suggest simply that none of them already knew about it.
Probably another kiddie flick, they were basically a bunch of kid superheros back in the 80's. Honestly this does seem like a strange choice to me, I would guess Marvel is seeing a Spy Kids type thing.
I think it's a good choice. Definitely Spy Kids. It's a decent kid's flick premise, with backstory and characters already created. Basic kid's superhero wish fulfillment stuff. And since anyone who cared about it has grown out of it now, there really aren't a lot of fans to offend.
The only problem with all of these is that a lot of Marvel's TV and Movie output has been really really bad.
Doesn't matter. At the time its obfuscated it hasn't gone through GCC so isn't under the GPL. We own the license on the obfuscator so we can run it withput having to release the pre obfuscated code.
If anyone says we can't do this then we'll just challenge them to prove that we don't simply have unusual naming conventions and coding standards.
Use a code obfuscator. It changes all variable and finction names to semi-random alphanumeric strings. Removes all unneccesary white space, and does some other weird stuff.
You could even use ours. It's released under the GPL so you can modify it freely. If you can decypher any of the code, that is.
Physics can be split further. Split the objects up using partition planes. Apply a thread to each side dealing with all physics on the object. Can do similar for visibility culling. You don't get linear scaling with number of threads, so if you add too many threads, you're at a disadvantage if you have substantially more threads than CPUs, but yo can still distribute the load a little.
I don't doubt hat 60% figure. I don't doubt that having a certain amount of work to get done makes working more pleasant, or that time spent not working can make you more productive. This generalyl matches my experience.
What I don't believe is that you have a whole chain of managers who read a report and actually pay attention to what it says! And believe what it says when it doesn't match their preconceptions.
The moon weighs 73 600 000 trillian tonnes and is made from cheese. To produce that much dairy produce, it would take the world 12 trillion years at the current annual rate of dairy production. Since the world has only been in existence for 4.6 billion years, there is no way that much cheese could have been produced even if current dairy production was at current rates.
Fact - If it did exist, there is no way of getting there.
The moon is roughly 250 000 miles away. There are no gas stations on the way. A typical car will only get about 600 miles on a full tank. Even an exceptionally fuel efficent car with a very large tank will not get anythign like 250 000 miles.
So, since the moon is cleary an illusion, and is too far away to visit, the "moon landings" must have been faked.
In fact, fellow nerds, just give me a link to ONE impressive piece of AI software (that isn't a chess player) and I'll be bowled over.
I quite like 20 question. Actually this sort of thing is not too hard. I once wrote a simple game that did this (animals only, just searching down a tree) and people I showed it to were quite impressed.
There's some serious modifications though. More power. More speed. Heat shielding. Better efficiency. No doubt there are a few ideas that worked, and can be reused, but they're pretty much starting from scratch.
Who said it wasn't possible? Getting to 100km may have been an engineering challenge, but it was clearly achievable. There were about 20 companies competing for the X-prize. That was pretty good evidence for it being possible.
Who's saying that this isn't possible?
All people are saying is that the technology to get to LEO and back is considerably different from that needed to get to 100km altitude and back.
The feeling of tiredness is there for a reason. But aren't poor concentration and lack of alertness the problem sleep solves? Seems this drug causes the chemicals (or suitable alternatives) to get to the brain.
Spam does not support the no-name drug industry. It's a cost. None of the spam I receive supports free porn services because I've never signed up to one.
Spam supports the nation of Nigeria. Hating spam is racist
You're the racist! You clearly think that the only possible way for Nigeria to have any success is through crime. Let me tell you, I know a lot of africans, and they are all very capable of earning a living through legal practices.
If they invite you back, it's obviously not tresspassing. Their junk mail marketting department doesn't talk to security. That means a lot of card counters get a nice piece of junk mail saying "Come to $CASINO again". A lot of card counters have used that one to their advantage.

Unusual things. Harder case than a 3.25" disk, and slightly rectangular. Only ever really used on Amstrad machines.
True, but it means to cause something to happen. Which certainly doesn't fit the use in the sentence.
but we're happy to announce that NO MORE CHANGES WILL BE MADE.
Wow! Anyone who makes a statement like that really hasn't had a lot of experience organising this sort of thing.
Come to think of it, it sounds like they didn't even have experience attending this sort of thing.
But Frontier did this, and it was very hard to play. If they got it to be playable, then great, but cool ideas don't always work.
My gran calls it the "Double-u Double-u Double-u dot".
In my view, companies that are in need of these specialised skills should be the ones responsible for the training up
This is true, but it's still a valid concern. It means that in a few year's time, the maintenence cost of mainframes is going to go up significantly.
There's some serious modifications though. More power. More speed. Heat shielding. Better efficiency. No doubt there are a few ideas that worked, and can be reused, but they're pretty much starting from scratch.

Shuffling takes time. Some high rollers think they have a "lucky" shoe if they win a few times early into the deck and get reckless later.
Long and the short of it is that they make more money ejecting the counters than shuffling sooner.
True. Here's where they often mess up though.
