Hey, here's a cool story about Weev: He's totally the kind of guy society should tolerate. http://bedizen.livejournal.com/258763.html
Increment is the wrong word. They implemented the Luhn algorithm, which is not the same as i++
Mobile operators have to certify devices, even if they don't include them in the portfolio. This is a consequence of commitments to a country's spectrum management organizations. If an operator expresses commitment, I…
I want this anecdote about weev to be the first thing that people talk about when someone brings up any comparison to Weev. http://bedizen.livejournal.com/258763.html Comparing Weev to Aaron is like comparing the dali…
+1 would read again. OP is performing cargo-cult interviewing. Hiring is a process. You just can't know someone after your 1/8th segment of an interview day for the candidate. The hires I've made have been with people…
Something I didn't understand at 18 (that I do at 35) is that your 'enemies' may be dealing with things you simply cannot understand. If a coworker is belligerent to an 18 year old, they are assholes. To a 35 year old…
Defcon is a party. You should definitely go.
idiots. Most of the fucks who pull this shit are no-value skiddies.
Cargo Cult Capitalism: Successful startups are filled with young people, so fire all the olds.
7 million dead birds seems like it would be easy to video/photograph. Choosing to forego documentation that supports these claims has to be intentional.

On windows mobile 6.0, you could send wap pushes that linked to signed apps which would auto-execute/install. right now, there aren't any vulns which are similar in danger that I am aware of. SMS isn't a super friendly…
I work for a carrier. People simultaneously depend on our services and actively hope for our demise. So I hope you understand the context when I say you need to thicken your skin. The motivation for an attack is…
+1 I can only use trello for mumdane work tasks or personal work if there is no self hosted solution. This decision is a mistake, Joel. I love trello, but i cannot trust a hosted solution with my plans for taking over a…
Code signining is a control that is intended to restrict the software that can run to only those apps which have been granted the right to run. Your second question is a good one, but given is context, it is unrelated.…
Running unsigned code is an exploit, my friend.
Charlie is one of the founders of the controversial "no more free bugs" movement. The amount of skill necessary to identify AND exploit bugs is so great that the bug reports themselves have value,far beyond attribution…
shocking that the popular press missstates anything tech. Charlie is extremely well known in the security community. They know who he is. This isnt their first trip to the rodeo with Charlie.
Defcon is cheap to attend. You should go sometime and get a feel for the event. If a trip to Vegas is out of your price range, go check visit Hot Topic. You'll get the proper feel. The Defcon crowd is awfully touristy.…
OHA is functionally irrelevant. Google will not authorize the use of their branding if you go outside of their interests. I'm speaking from experience. OHA tricks people into thinking the platform is open. Hows your…
Well positioned: 1) They have a constrained ecosystem which could insure that the quality experience for apps is better than the current average in android apps 2) I haven't owned a wp7 device for over a year, so I…
Platforms that tightly coordinate with carriers were highly successful in the previous mobile cycle (prior to wm 6.1- so anything before 2008 really). The model has changed, however. Today, it's android & iphone…
