Estonian tax and customs board has reduced its size by 30% over the last ten years all the while having cost of euro collected and percentage of euros collected figures trending up to the point of being in top three…
Commodity hardware in the sense of “it is made but impossible to get hold of outside the place its made or Leningrad or Moscow and half what you get is wildly out if spec” as Soviet reality tended to be. Only aluminum…
Agat user reporting. We actually had a full classroom of these things in 89. Dreadful but interesting.
I’ve done a conference paper and had another one accepted. For me, the hardest is finding good places to publish. Conference levels fluctuate and magazines carry different weight - this is not necessarily obvious for a…
I’d recommend visiting Finland. In these parts, there’s basically 3 months of optimal visibility. The rest is fog, rain, snow, sleet and road conditions that would shut down most of US. Yet people drive and do so…
I’ve fired and been fired for sub-par performance. I’m from the EU. Its not that rare at all.
Well, try to play some of the Toy Dolls tunes at their tempo. Olga is quite the master.
Afaik the way cement works is you separate carbon from stone during its production and it binds co2 from air during setting. So wheres the big impact?
Blockchain is a collection of technologies rather than a single one. Like a car. Yes, one can claim their motorboat runs on “car technology” because of the internal combustion engine. But it would be strange to do so.
This only applies, if you treat privacy as limiting information collected. If you take the view that privacy is a peocess integrity issue instead (all data is effectively personal, the goal is to make sure access to it…
SpectX is a tool that can run fast sql-like queries on top of distributed text files. It was initially built to parse logs by an infosec team. Hope it helps!
It isn’t free. Thus the profit.
But, God forbid, we issue people identifiers and keep a full tally of the citizens. You either have a proper identity management or stories like this (and identity theft and fraud and many other unpleasant things). It…
Think of it like so: you have a robot that anybody can ask anything and that will answer any and all questions truthfully. Whose fault is it if you deliberately tell the robot non-public information?
A computer cant be bribed. Move transactions online, cut out the middleman and corruption goes down. To do this, you need a strong national identity scheme. Aashaar is a good start but would need to be augmented with…
I guess that encapsulates the difference in attitude perfectly. Very real consequences in terms of people dead vs. something that might happen in the future and where guns might help. Do you fear the future or not. By…
We used to do that stuff using frames back in the day. You’d have a hidden frame, change its url and look at what that dom contains. At scale, too. I was amazed at all the hoo-haa around that “new” xmlhttp API
They did bring about an universal socket, though. That’s quite a benefit
Having lived pieces of that and seen survivors, I’d say it was pretty bad and quite a bit worse than the article describes. Unless you belonged to the nomenclatura and were ok with being at the mercy of the Aparat.
The entire thing is a great case of cultural challenges. From one hand, you’d like to encourage open discussion about everything. Because innovation and out of the box thinking. On the other, discussing some ideas leads…
Security is an emergent property of a system consisting of users, software and hardware. Thus, a programmer cannot prove security of a system but merely assert its certain behaviour. Langsec does just that. No, it can…
