BGP MiTM attacks
http://www.ciscozine.com/2009/03/06/bgp-mitm-attacks/
Surfing the web, I have found a nice article about BGP weakness. This document, entitled “Defending Against BGP Man-In-The-Middle Attacks“, was presented by Earl Zmijewski during Black Hat DC 2009 (Hyatt Regency Crystal City - February 16-17 - Arlington, Virginia).

The slides focus on four points:

BGP Routing Basics - Enough to understand and identify the threat
BGP Update Messages
BGP Attributes
Some real examples
The Man-In-The-Middle Attack:
How BGP MiTM attack work
What are the techniques used by an attacker to “tune” the attack (Obscuring the MITM attack with TTL adjustment)
Detecting the Attack - Methods for observing the attack in the wild:
Traceroute
Latency
BGP Alarming Services (BGPmon, IAR, …)

How important is it to maintain control (during equity division negotiation?)
http://www.quora.com/How-important-is-maintaining-control-over-technical-founders-for-a-business-founder-in-an-early-stage-startup?__snids__=3779593%2C3779616%2C3779598%2C3779502
I am the initial founder of a stealthmode tech start-up. I'm also the business side of the equation... I define the business model and sell the value proposition to stakeholders involved. I make sure the business actually sells something that customers would scale, and do all the marketing, research, pitching etc. My co-founders are two very technical engineers. One is a Google alum, the other is a Facebook alum.

I was speaking to my business mentor earlier and my mentor strongly recommended that I keep 51% and distribute 49%. The reason being that he thinks I need to stay in control, and avoid a situation where the two engineers gang up on me. I believe in collaboration within a start-up to narrow down on an idea, but I also believe one person needs to be in charge. The issue is control of the vision, not greed. How do I protect my control over the company, and what are your thoughts on the appropriate equity division?

Any feedback is appreciated!
Ask HN: What is the most useful thing I can develop in C++ and opensource it?
I am a C++ programmer with about 10 years of experience, have been reading HN for some time now.

I am based in Europe and looking for a job change (may be move to US). Lately, it seems like most good places in the US want you to demonstrate your skills through github before they would even consider you. I have always been one of the top programmers wherever I worked, but don't tend to program as much outside work and don't maintain a github account with any goodies.

My question is, is there something I can develop in C++ and put it on github that's actually useful for people and will help me get noticed? (I am also skilled in DB, Cloud technologies, python)

Are DVDs completely gone? 
https://aas.yesvideo.com/
We are testing the market with a new product that will allow any company, or individual to burn a DVD or BluRay Disc from the cloud. We are attempting to leverage our proven infrastructure that already burns and ships millions of discs each year.

Is there a market for this?
If so, where do you think it is?
What would you use it for?

The Hermeneutics of Web Design

Poll: Why do you program?
Why do you program?

I just realized why I don't feel like I fit in with many of the programmers here, since it's so product oriented, and why I have so much trouble building a portfolio of software to show off.

I don't particularly enjoy building systems. I like solving interesting or difficult problems, so my biggest thrill is working on pieces of systems rather than whole systems.

Does anyone else feel this way?

Password fatigue - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Password_fatigue
"20% of customer service calls are password-related."

Adding passwords to a site would make customer service increase 25%. This is brutal considering it's hard to automate, and according to Joel Spolsky, one of the first jobs a startup hands to a dude who works on an hourly wage.

Then there's the larger cost of turning users away.
