My iPhone 5S works fine, does what I want, serves its purpose. The only thing I want is more realestate, which will maybe drive me to an iPhone 6-something when I feel the price point is right (soon). I like my iPhone, so I will not be getting an Android. But I'm not going to spend a fortune on The Latest and Greatest a long as what I have works. It's a phone, not the center of my world, so I'm fine both sticking with Apple and being a few years behind the bleeding edge.
Tinder said in a statement that the photo sweeper "violated the terms of our service" and "we are taking appropriate action and investigating further."
TOS is meaningless in cases like this. TOS are meaningless anyway, except as, perhaps, a means to ban users. And that's pretty pointless as well.
But really, what do people that put their photographs out on the Intertubes like this expect? Privacy? Really?
The claim is dubious. Why would they inform all the Terrorists that they can decrypt WhatsApp with ease? They wouldn't. The reason for the "disclosure" is to influence Terrorists to use some other - perhaps less secure - means of communication because they CAN NOT decrypt WhatsApp.
If it works 1000 times, it sounds like three times my salary.
I'm sorry, maybe work on your LinkedIn profile...
However, what makes you think it will "work" 1000 times? It's a lame DDoS attack aimed at some very large companies. Did you read the article?
Following ridicule from fellow hackers, who made fun of the group for failing to understand how a DDoS extortion works, the group closed their Twitter account earlier today.
...and...
The attention they got wasn't the one they expected, as their hosting provider took down their website, located at xmr-squad.biz.
Believe it or not there are corporations and investors out there looking for just such mercenary programmers to work on their projects and having a programmer who builds to spec and doesn't ask the wrong questions is a plus for these organizations.
where supposedly anyone can 'code', this is the expected result. Why would you expect anything else from cheap inexperienced labor?
There is a "coding" school here in Seattle (I think it's some chain) that will teach you to "code" in 7 or 8 weeks, and then apparently get a $70k job.
I don't believe it, I think they are designed to suck up GI Bill money from veterans.
In cities that limit the number of owner-not-present rental nights to 90 per calendar year (like -for example- San Francisco, CA) AirBnB is absolutely a small-operator Bread and Breakfast matchmaking service.
Does anyone still take LinkedIn seriously? It's just marketing guys thses days, right? If someone looking for work with my team forwarded their LinkedIn page as a serious part of their resume, I would write them off as morons.
the researchers were unable to determine an actual cause-and-effect relationship between sipping artificially sweetened drinks and an increased risk for stroke and dementia
In other words, the headline is worthless click-bait. This is not a "study", it's a statistical analysis of a database set that proves nothing at all by itself.
A hotel in the ~$50-$100/night range has a hall that smells like weed. People wandering up and down the halls at all hours of the night and hit or miss bed bugs.
I guess you and I stay in a different class of hotel.
When asked about it he said the spec didn't say it needed to check buffer sizes or not crash if not used in the exact way that the manual specified, with no room for error.
I don't see a problem with this. You want specific levels of error handling? Put it in the spec.

If the work is critical it does not get outsourced. If it gets outsourced its not critical.
Is that a fact?
How so?
I'm at work right now....

Hopefully they realize that means more than "there's no Ethernet cable connecting this computer to the network"
That a piece of equipment is connected to a network via an Ethernet cable does not mean it's connected the The Internet.

That's France.
No loose for the Turks, except for those that play Trivial Pursuit...

Lamers.
Cute, we've seen how this worked when the TSA showed up, groping all passengers in their crotch
Mostly little boys.
sounds like the mob pay up if you don't want something bad to happen.
At $275 a crack? Sounds like Skript Kiddies.

I make very good money.
The guy hacked A UNIX NETWORK!
No, he didn't. He had some credentials, both his own and some stolen. Nothing was "hacked".
So a guy hacks his employer to steal proprietary code, gets caught and arrested? Who would have thought!

But at least they are teaching Python...
A tutorial's purpose is not to follow good practices in all aspects; such a tutorial would be unreadable.

Don't be dense.
Ask any of us geeks that "cracked" copy protection. We ain't doing it for the free money or chicks
Speak for yourself.
Guess who's resume I just circular filed...

Let's be honest.
AirBnB is "Home Shareing" about as much as Uber is "Ride Sharing".
