Talk about rewriting history - Skype v1 could do 2GB and also had that smart relay feature (speed limited at 4k/s) so transfers always worked, even on firewalled/proxied links.
I would have welcomed any option of sending plain text packets+signature (and there are many) so as to keep the Web open and allow people managing it to gain insights from its contents. Sadly, tech news I read makes it look like everybody is under attack and the only solution is end-to-end encryption. Until you reach Facebook's servers, that is.
A tool that automates will by definition find a repeat of a previous (similar, if smart enough) action. A new programmer, placing in the root password in a new chunk of code, can still do it in so many ways as to be undetectable.
Anecdotal story: me, 40 year old, fully employed for as long as I can remember, show up at a bank's desk, get rejected from various offers because of what I'm being told is "not enough history". How the hell does a 18 old get anything but a lollipop?
What kind of messed up font and dpi do you have for the ". A" space not be visible? Sadly I can't paste images here but you did make me curious so I opened the page on three different enough systems; if a paragraph of 13px Arial is bothersome man will you be disappointed by the rest of the Internet.
Telegram couldn't have asked for better publicity than this. Not saying I would use their service myself (I trust Moxie Marlinspike's Signal more) but a headline like "neither Putin nor Khamenei have managed to break us" is pretty badass.
Actually you both have referred to the correct source of information, but at different times: when Bruce Schneier mentioned this in 2016 at https://www.schneier.com/blog/..., the SP800-63b draft said "deprecated", it's now "restricted". Goes to show how difficult is to stay informed and compliant in this constantly changing threatscape.
Bottom-posting is a lost battle, maybe useful for the Usenet era when attachments were appended inline. The Gmail-style of seeing a relevant summary on one line is very useful, for me at least.
Actually that's only true if you assume none of the people involved are competent enough to create a provably safe solution - see EAL levels 5-7 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/...
While codecs and containers are well known, most video providers nowadays are encrypted; if the algorithm / keys used allow for content fingerprinting at scale then the encryption itself is badly broken (one would hope they won't dare go and install their own wildcard certs on all customer phones).
No it doesn't - referring to Windows. The most popular tool you hear of when automating NT systems is PsExec, and that one uncovered to the world an always-on, separate from SMB/CIFS, publicly available file transfer and command execution channel that I shamefully admit at the time, after years of MS servers management, had never heard of: http://techgenix.com/psexec-na... The author - Mark Russinovich - went on to a technical leadership position within Microsoft itself.
If the Ctrl-V is onto a public resource - and the intent to share makes this quite likely, WSJ might very well sue. This is Murdoch we're talking about.
While I can understand you being bitter after such a horrific accident: let's say human operators would have taken a safer path because they had a better understanding of the situation, for example such an accident happened before in a matter similar enough to still be fresh in memory. Should the automation have the same information available, I'm confident its programmers would have made efforts to make the same decision.
This will work for people who just want to stuff something in their bellies pronto. How would a simple change be done - regardless if machine or customer error? Put everything back in, have the scanner look for diffs?
..from someone who is probably internal and so familiar with the thing they didn't think readers might not understand what "meridian" is, but did mention the name 4 times, like the well trained drones they are
Hear, hear. Humans are not built the same - fortunately - and that makes it hard for quite a lot of them to understand the nature of addiction. As more anecdotal evidence, all the dope I've ever tried only skyrocketed my blood pressure and made me genuinely afraid for my life during the few moments while it had some effect. This meant that even if I can afford to land in Amsterdam every bloody weekend should I want to, when I do go there I'm forced to be the party pooper and just visit museums or smell the flowers.
If the "enterprise users" are mainly targeted, and they decide to pay the ransom, bypassing the sec and legal support from the company/police, they are only aggravating the problem and should be fired on the spot.
It's been nice to visit you for quite a few years, but the website has changed in ways I do not like, and since soylentnews is up I will delete my account. Good luck to the remaining founders in their next endeavour.
I got bit by this one: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/925308 on volumes with hundreds of thousands of small files. All who had a size multiple of 4kb were corrupted.

Unfortunately malware with root access could easily hide from all utilities by hooking read calls to /proc/stat an returning lower values.

Do you need to perform maintenance tasks every day, continuously between 9 and 5? If not, do you still go to the office, and stay there 8 hours?
