> She was gay, an alcoholic, suffered from lifelong clinical depression and had a tough upbringing, not really a combination that will produce an easy person given her times. But she gave us Tom Ripley and, incredibly, made us root for him somehow. That's a rare talent.

Isn't how that how most works of art are inspired?

Lately, I've come to suspect these terror scares are home grown plots by the state security apparatus, designed to justify their existence.

First rule of 'Cyber Security': never use the phrase 'Cyber Security' in any serious discussion on hacking. If I was going to hire-on a computer security professional. The first question I would ask is, how many machines have you owned?

> Stuxnet[0] for example. A highly sophisticated attack using several Windows 0-day exploits

Nobody in their right minds uses windows to control vital industrial plant, especially nuclear centrifuges.

> .. That's precisely the point of a union. It's an organization to protect its members ..

That's just it, the union is there to represent the interests of the senior officers and no one else.

> What are some cool things that are possible? - extract resources I guess. Is this Russian program trust worthy.

Yes, it's guaranteed to have been backdoored by the NSA.

@scpedicini: "This had to have been one of the most boring articles I've ever read. Flowery, overly prosaic and not a single interesting take away about actual safe cracking - and yes yes we get it insider information trade secrets blah blah blah."

I agree entirely, reads suspiciously like a New Yorker article, they should read such, out loud to the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay, they'll soon crack.

Hear elRon in his own words. As he once put it, he was “drinking lots of rum and popping pinks and greys” at the time.

Dispensing with all the folksy prose, buy enough lottery tickets and you'll win on the lower draws.

I find it hard to believe Anonymous actually met his advisor. Bret Weinstein has fully called out the tactics.

The future of the .NET “Standard” .. it'll be a continously moving target, making it near impossible to clone ;]

Of course that'll mean developers are for ever playing catch-up, rewriting code at more expence.

Why don't they land in time Square or go on a reality television program?

Assuming these UFOs are vessels from off-earth and want their presence to remain hidden then why do the space aliens persist in buzzing US air bases.
