The posted article is from the original case, but the appeal had news from today: https://www.reuters.com/legal/apple-loses-bid-revive-us-copy...

So you bought a book that's sold as "The world's most infamous hacker offers an insider's view of the low-tech threats to high-tech security"[0] and expected it to be about serious computer-based intrusion?

> The irs keeps 6 months of emails on tape; when investigators asked for emails in mid-2013, tape was available through late 2012.

IRS guidelines state that official records, in accordance with the Federal Records Act, must be retained (at the very least archived as a hardcopy). So the IRS is institutionally violating their own guidelines, as well as federal law?

> 2011 < 2013, it's not as if she could know that her emails would be requested in the future.

Except for the letter sent by Chairman Camp to then-Commissioner Schulman riiiiight before the crash: http://waysandmeans.house.gov/uploadedfiles/non_6103_ltr_fin...

Looks like the git repositories used to submit solutions are over SSH? Unfortunately this won't work in an environment that requires outbound traffic to go over an authenticated proxy. Any chance of getting git-over-HTTPS support?

And spending $50 on diesel once a month is really nice!

I just recently started using Vagrant. What downsides have you seen? Any show-stoppers?

Paul Krugman was also skeptical and dismissive of the Internet:

> The growth of the Internet will slow drastically, as the flaw in "Metcalfe's law" -- which states that the number of potential connections in a network is proportional to the square of the number of participants -- becomes apparent: most people have nothing to say to each other! By 2005 or so, it will become clear that the Internet's impact on the economy has been no greater than the fax machine's.

> As the rate of technological change in computing slows, the number of jobs for IT specialists will decelerate, then actually turn down; ten years from now, the phrase information economy will sound silly.

This is not entirely true. A very large percentage of spam (70-90%) is stopped at or before the banner, at a layer he probably doesn't control (unless he runs his entire email infrastructure).

Even then, plastic magazines (such as those for Glocks, "Pmags" for AR-15s, any many others) still have metal components, most notably the spring.

The trick that always worked for me was to insert the cartridge and then pull it out just enough to where the near edge of the cartridge would just barely scrape against the console as it was pushed down. This was far more effective than blowing on the cartridge.

Couldn't you compare the fingerprints of a cert as accessed from a suspect network and from a trusted network?
