thricegr8··on Zeptoseconds: New world record in short time measurement
From the article: "They measured how long it takes for a photon to cross a hydrogen molecule: about 247 zeptoseconds for the average bond length of the molecule. This is the shortest timespan that has been successfully measured to date."

Incredible.

Where the mind truly starts to boggle is remembering that a zeptosecond still falls incredibly short of the Planck time/distance at 5×10−44.

It's certainly exciting to speculate how much closer to an actual Planck /measurement/ we may yet achieve.

thricegr8··on Is Sudo Almost Useless?
Can you expand a bit on the type of scripts/scenario you'd use for something like this? I presume the email + script would need to be something legitimate enough looking as to not raise any red flags during a glance over, with built in assurances you aren't causing any real harm against the target, and then properly configuring the script (or downstream actions) to then get exfil'd. Very interesting nonetheless.
