The two things I noticed were that 1) The user of the device is named "IAmAdmin", implying that they have admin rights, and 2) The "integrity" of chrome.exe is changed from Low to Medium at somepoint during the attack. Could this somehow be related to breaking out of the sandbox?
Agreed. Do you think T-mobile will allow termination of contracts without a early termination fee? I'm guessing probably not, but I'd jump ship if I could avoid the fees.
"Carriers will not modify the material terms of their subscribers’ contracts in a manner that is materially adverse to subscribers without ... allowing subscribers a time period of not less than 14 days to cancel their contracts with no early termination fee."
I couldn't agree more. But I think 8 belongs near the top. I am currently helping re-condition experienced mainframe developers into web developers, and I can't stress enough the importance of tools. Understanding the browser, HTTP request and response, cookies, web security, and the OSI model is crucial.
The way the new design constrains the user is what bothers me most. Having a page that scrolls off the screen makes the content seem much more "deep" than it really is. I think they chose this design to appease the tablet crowd.
Yeah, good point about the scrolling - that choice had to be tablet-driven. Maybe some of my discomfort with the new design is because I'm not used to tablet-style scrolling on my laptop (ie. the content moves but I don't feel like I'm moving down the page).
I wonder how this page feels on iPad Safari?
They don't really need permission to scrape public Facebook profiles now do they? The first version of Facebook (Facemash) used pictures and names scraped from a private Harvard directory - hacked by Zuckerberg . Facebook is just getting a taste of their own medicine.
A famous one is "Google is the new Microsoft". Unfortunately people forget many of the bad things (including anti-competitive crimes!) MS did in the past.
I would expect that most Facebook users won't friend random people just because of shared interests. The public nature of Twitter is more strongly suited at finding people with similar interests. Suppose I want to find somebody with an interest in the Android operating system. On twitter, I can search for Android and see who's tweets look most intriguing.
Part of me thinks the the same math geniuses that invented the credit default swap financial derivatives figured out an even better way to beat the market. All they had to do was get someone to fat finger an order for P&G.
Regardless of the truth to that theory, the article makes a great point. Does anyone know if only the NASDAQ is cancelling orders? What about the NYSE?
It was the excess underpriced leverage that got us into the whole subprime crisis of 2008. CDS's are financial tools that allow buyers and sellers to expose themselves to certain risks. Whether this is used for insurance/hedge or as a bet on a certain outcome is and should be at the discretion of the buyer/seller.
