They even set up legit GitHub profiles with repos that appeared in some scenes (and even their site/blog used to have regular updates lol). It was awesome.
I am running uBlock, and almost none of the images on the page load right now. And seeing the way the title on that page is written, I'm not expecting quality content from there. Maybe share a link to a page that doesn't suck?
Sure but the argument seemed to be more general. From the article:
Perceptive readers might have noticed that most of these
arguments can be generalized. This article is much the same
if we replace “Discord” with “GitHub”, for instance, or “
Twitter” or “YouTube”.
For Business-Initiated Rates, Rest of Africa is higher than North America, Rest of Latin America, Rest of Central & Eastern Europe, Rest of Asia Pacific and Rest of Middle East (basically any region other than Western Europe). Any specific reason for this? "Being poor is expensive" kinda thing?
Is keeping performance in mind and choosing the tech stack accordingly really a premature optimization?
This might be the most abused phrase in CS history. Perhaps we should add "Premature optimization fallacy" to the list of cognitive errors programmers use as an excuse to not seriously think about performance.
The legal/ethical question is important, but I was just stressing OP's point about the disparity between bug bounties and what the actual exploits are worth. IANAL, but for the specific cases I mentioned (nation states and vendors who work with them), I think the legal aspect would be very different from selling it to regular black market cybercriminals (I used the generic "black market" in the first part of the original comment but I was mostly talking about those two cases).
It's not just Microsoft. What most bug bounties pay isn't even close to the amount you can get from selling it on the black market (assuming you have the right connections). It's why selling exploits to nation states and vendors who work with them is so lucrative.
This sounds awesome. For anyone with relevant expertise in the field: How significant is this? It seems pretty significant but we often hear about some amazing results from mice studies that turn out to not work in the real world.
