"This malware report contains analysis of 11 malware samples consisting of 32-bit and 64-bit Windows executable files and a malicious Microsoft Word document that contains Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macros."
Note that all the samples are trojans, you have to run them to get infected. These aren't remote exploits. Also, fwiw there is no reason presented to believe they are from North Korea.
I like the example of the glass staircase at an apple store. Cool idea, it looked nice, but there was clearly no woman on the design team because that is really awkward to climb in a dress.
For the causes, you need to look at hominids 200k years ago. When men were hunting a mammoth, women collected tubers with a kid in tow. Men were expendable, thus today they are still more willing to take risks
I want to point out that WannaCry was built on an exploit from the NSA (The ShadowBrokers leak). If the NSA had spent half as much time defending the internet as they do attacking it, then WannaCry never would have happened. Furthermore if admins had been up on their patches, they wouldn't have been hit by the attack. Finally, if admins had been doing proper backups, they wouldn't have needed to pay to get it unlocked.
So there are multiple layers of fuckup in WannaCry.
Grsecurity likes to claim they are secure, but at DEFCON last year, someone looked into it, and hacked it pretty easily, even installed DOOM on the device running it.
It's Norway. The other day someone was on here bragging about how great the internet is in Norway. Therefore the natural conclusion is, the IQ drop is in direct proportion to the access to porn.
ok well anyway, I don't think you have Dunning-Kruger.
It's amazing how many non-psychologists, people who've never even taken a psychology class, are naturally gifted and talented at diagnosing Dunning-Kruger.
This is not the first time that nation-state hackers have used routers as part of their attack infrastructure, this being a very popular trend recently
Youâ(TM)re drastically overestimating the NSAâ(TM)s talent/capabilities. I work in InfoSec,
Who else has destroyed their target's hardware across an air-gapped divide? EternalBlue shows that the NSA has a lot of hacking skill at their command. They also have the ability to gain physical access if they really need to.
Machine learning, one of the key ingredients of artificial intelligence, is giving the companies new superpowers to identify and guard against malicious attacks on their increasingly cloud-oriented products and services.
And was their results-oriented work flow kept track of with block-chain?
Genuinely not trying to troll you here, but this sounds like classic Dunning-Kruger effect.
It's not Dunning-Kruger if he's fully aware that he could be wrong, if he's fully aware that he doesn't know everything. His comment is fine, he present his status as an amateur physicist with very good math skill. Seems he understand his skill level, and isn't over-estimating it.
now, we can *claim* that increasing the power of the particle colliders would increase the detection rate of particles, thus giving a larger statistical analysis base to work from, but with the near-terminal focus being on the Standard Model, where funding is ONLY available if you are working on the STANDARD MODEL, and where deviations from the STANDARD MODEL result in you never receiving funding again... you see where this is going?
OK, but what are these "non-standard" scientists going to do differently? Do they have experiments that would be a better application of our (collective) money than an upgrade in the standard model?
Even if the standard model is somewhat wrong (it's mostly right, just like Newton's model is mostly right), then what experiments would we do differently to verify it?
Not only was that anticipated, and not only have computers been "teaching" themselves for years in AI once the basic parameters are set, that is exactly what neural networks were DESIGNED to do nearly 50 years ago when they were invented
If this case succeeds, it will cause serious problems, because people quit and go work for competitors all the time
And when they do, they know things like business plans, financials, etc. So this will essentially mean it's impossible to go work for a competitor. Not good.
Except it's BETTER than a taxi service. You know the cost up front: no worry about being ripped off by a taxi driver who takes the long way for a few extra bucks. Also the ability to review drivers means they try a little harder to be friendly.
Slashdot Mirror
There aren't enough skeleton remains from 200k years ago to make any kind of firm analysis of that type.

That's extremely speculative.
If you work in the computer industry, this trend is going to affect you, whether you care or not.

Wow, you're great! Someone who actually read the indictment.
Or even this: http://www.letmegooglethat.com...
Microsoft is the one who took 13% of CPU time to blink a cursor.

Sorry you lost, Spengler. Next time just return your changes to the kernel, everyone will be better off.

I read your post twice and I'm still not sure what the answer to my question was.
btw, it doesn't bother me that there are magic numbers. We have the gravitational constant, and no one has any clue why that is the number it is.
ok well anyway, I don't think you have Dunning-Kruger.

Which line in particular makes you think that? Or which claim is that poster making too strongly?

Probably because Cisco stuff has garbage security.

The unsupervised or weakly supervised achivements are new.
Not really.....

Yeap, and font people have their own specialties in the design world.
