notlambda··on Parity wallet critical vulnerability. $32M (153k $ETH) Stolen

i think it's ASLR with more entropy by skimming through the paper, but most exploits have read primitives or infoleaks anyways so i don't see how more entropy affects them. If i am right it protects against attackers guessing the ASLR slide, but that's very unreliable and no FBI grade exploit should ever do that.

notlambda··on Uber banned in all of Italy
Italian here, according to the driver of the taxi i'm in right now Uber is unfair because their drivers don't have to buy taxi licenses(over 200k Euros each in major cities). The Italian economy is in a bad state and the government doesn't want thousands of taxi drivers without a job.
