Given the recent data released from the publishing industry, I estimate there are ~500 non-celebrity book authors making a living.

Good that Microsoft have single single-handedly solved cybersecurity, we can all go home now as remote data theft isn't possible and malware is solved.

Code is neither math nor language (which I suck in both). It’s fucking engineering, something completely different!

My latest for @wired. How researchers hacked time to crack an 11-year-old password protecting $3 million in cryptocurrency. They found a significant flaw in RoboForm's password manager that made its pseudo-random-number generator not so random https://t.co/T4uze7i8R4

Note that @roboform learned of this problem in 2015 and appears to have fixed it in subsequent versions. But the company never told customers about it or urged them to create new passwords. RoboForm also won't say what exactly it did to fix the problem so the fix can be verified https://t.co/4DK8EF3mfj

Some folks are discussing what it means to be a “secure encrypted messaging app.” I think a lot of this discussion is shallow and in bad faith, but let’s talk about it a bit. Here’s a thread. 1/

when i was on a menswear forum, a n00b claimed his shoes were handwelted, so an older forum member bought a pair of the shoes for $400, ripped them apart, and proved they were not handwelted, thus triggering a series of events that brought down a shoe factory in italy

It’s so weird that it seems like something you’d do to get your enemy habituated to balloons barrages. Just so you can take advantage of the complacency when it sets in or force them to spend resources going into alert every single time. The price of the mock attack is nothing, but the cost of defense is high and of ignoring a real attack is even higher.
Photos are emerging this morning of the balloons sent from North Korea that have landed in South Korea overnight, filled with trash not propaganda leaflets, and some bursting their loads with what appears to be manure. Authorities say some 90 balloons have been detected. https://t.co/OzSuqlilCi pic.twitter.com/O6mOd5vqyu
