rand1012··on After 45 years, FBI closes investigation into unsolved 'DB Cooper' hijacking
If only they put so much work into investigating Hillary Clinton.
rand1012··on New Cities
I think a 24 hour economy should be a design goal of this city.
rand1012··on “Guccifer2”'s second release from DNC hack
But, absent evidence, there's no reason to suggest anything is unreleased.
rand1012··on Facebook disabling messaging in its mobile web app to push people to Messenger
I'd never trust installing their apps on my phone. The Facebook app admittedly listens to the microphone. So Facebook messages will largely become a black hole for me too.
rand1012··on Housing in the Bay Area
San Francisco is not the whole bay.
rand1012··on SS7 MITM Attack Against WhatsApp and Telegram
But we can easily assume that every major intelligence community has access to SS7.
rand1012··on GNU Gneural Network
Anyone else notice how GNU's website is stuck in 1993?
rand1012··on NSA data will soon routinely be used for domestic policing
Like Hillary wouldn't. She has Drug Warrior in her blood.
rand1012··on NSA data will soon routinely be used for domestic policing
The better evil is still fucking evil. Don't ever forget that.
rand1012··on Eric Schmidt to head new Pentagon innovation board
But you have to be morally corrupt to hold a position like this.
rand1012··on FBI’s Comey Concedes Mistake Was Made Over iPhone in San Bernardino Case
The FBI should offer to unlock the phone only if they arrest Hillary;)
rand1012··on Apple’s Privacy Fight Tests Relationship with White House
Me too. This is all making me want to switch to iOS.
rand1012··on Apple’s Privacy Fight Tests Relationship with White House
The real issue is that I have a fucking right to have my device be secure against the government. It's funny how you can only make sense of your argument when you get down in the weeds and lose sight of the big picture.
rand1012··on Apple’s Privacy Fight Tests Relationship with White House
Agreed 100%.
rand1012··on Nxweb – Fast and Lightweight Web Server
I want to use it on Raspberry Pi
rand1012··on Dutch government says no to backdoors, grants $540k to OpenSSL
Does it not bother anyone else that openssl doesn't support HTTPS on their website?
rand1012··on Magic+
A lot of VCs read HackerNews...
rand1012··on In Memoriam: Ian Murdock
This is a fairy tale. In reality, municipalities don't go much out of their way to uncover their own wrongdoings. It is fallacy to assume that this would be handled properly.
rand1012··on A Docker-inspired Heroku clone in 100 lines of PHP
I have never found "X lines of code" to be impressive. Write clean code and polish it and make it readable. Who cares how long it is. Hackers brag about lines, not engineers.
