Ultimate Bet player data is hacked
http://www.poker.ca/ultimate-bet-online-poker
This week saw millions of online poker players lose their rights to privacy. Ultimate Bet, the online poker site that was shut down by authorities on Black Friday this year, apparently leaked a long list of players’ personal information, revealing millions of names, addresses, account numbers, and seemingly encrypted passwords. Among those millions of players were hundreds of thousands of Canadians – 319,000, to be exact.

While it’s highly unlikely that Ultimate Bet could have been behind the leak, as the company responsible for protecting these personal details, they are ultimately responsible for what happens to these sensitive files. A number of scenarios are possible – a disgruntled employee could have stolen the list of player details and intentionally leaked it to the public in order to create further scandal, or perhaps a hacker decided to target the trouble online poker site. Whether the information was intended to be made so public is also unknown – perhaps it was illicitly procured with the intent to sell it, only it was leaked before a sale could take place. It’s really anyone’s guess what may have been going on behind the scenes, but the fact remains that millions of players’ information was released without their consent.

Now that Ultimate Bet has been shut down, it’s uncertain how anyone can be prosecuted for this lapse in privacy protection. For any players who fear their information may have been revealed, the only thing left to do is hope that no one who saw it will use it malevolently.

Ask HN: What do you use to host your landing pages?
Like a lot of you, I frequently have a new product idea, and want to get some initial feedback on it. To do that, I set up a single page landing page and drive traffic to it. Fairly standard.

However, hosting the landing page is always a pain. It's only a single site, so I don't want to set up a whole server for it, I don't want to figure out Heroku, essentially I want something that's nearly instantaneous - I just paste some HTML and CSS and I have a landing page.

I want to see if other people share my frustrations - or if they don't, what they use to host their landing pages (these could also be single page sites for a product you sell, or an open source project, whatever).

If you have about 3 minutes, could you fill out this survey so I can get a better idea of what your frustration is before I spend a lot of time building a product no one wants?

Ask HN: Can I Photoshop Athletes wearing my gear if I worded it carefully
Hi HN! Deciding on marketing for a lifestyle brand: if for example I said in an ad "Someday Even Tiger will be wearing these" with a shopped pic of Tiger Woods wearing my golf gloves with my logo, is this legal?

If not, what work around might be? Would a disclaimer work?

Thanks in advance for the brainstorming :)

PS: it is not a golf related brand.

U.S. venture capital needs a reboot

One thing they mention in the video discussion of this article ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Ue1pcNP6FQ ), which is not in the article, is that many investors are not able to get their money into the top tier VC funds. Yet these same investors have diversification strategies which compel them to slot a percentage of their capital toward venture capital. So many investors wind up giving that money to lower tier VC funds, many of which lose money.

Call to Action: Emergency Response for communities in path of Typhoon Haiyan
https://geekli.st/hackathon/52793a2660fb3f52d50001f8
36 hours ago we (@gklst) put out a Call to Action and launched an Emergency Response #Hack4good to help families and communities caught in the path of Typhoon Haiyan / Yolanda.

We need more designers, developers, product managers, social media experts and growth hackers to join the effort.

The latest Sitrep from the UN OCHA indicates more than 4 million people have been affected, with over 300,000 now in over 1000 evac centres and thousands more in need of rescue and humanitarian assistance.

The Geeklist Corps of Developers has received a direct request from the Presidential Office to build solutions to help them manage information coming in and assist rescue and relief efforts.

2 projects are already underway:

Rescue Coordination #ReliefPH (https://geekli.st/hackathon/52793a2660fb3f52d50001f8/idea/527c5a7053ddeb854a000024) is helping sift through requests for rescue coming in via multiple sources (SMS, Twitter, web forms) and allow rescue efforts to be better organised.

Area-based Relief Coordination (https://geekli.st/hackathon/52793a2660fb3f52d50001f8/idea/527ce2fd93f6ab665b00004b) is mapping specific relief needs (water, food, shelter, medicines, etc.) along with providers of these resources and assistance. They already have an early prototype up at relief.io

Tacloban City (Leyte province) There is no food, water or electricity there. Right now telecoms are down in many areas and roads are blocked, hampering relief efforts.

Emergency lighting is being installed to reopen airport runways and deliver emergency generators and Télecoms San Frontière are working with local telecoms companies to restore communications.

Once communications are restored, requests for Rescue and Relief are expected to snowball.

I ask you to join the effort in building solutions to assist in rescue and relief efforts.

Authentication Primitives for Memory Authentication
http://protogenist.wordpress.com/2012/09/03/authentication-primitives-for-memory-authentication/
Hash Functions. The first strategy (Figure 1.a) allowing to perform memory authentication
consists in storing on-chip a hash value for each memory block stored off-chip
(write operations). The integrity checking is done on read operations by re-computing
a hash over the loaded block and by then comparing the resulting hash with the on-chip
hash fingerprinting the off-chip memory location.

A Short Note on Facebook and the Moore's Law (also known as Zuckerberg's Law)
http://gplus.to/bersier
Facebook Moore's Law (also known as Zuckerberg's Law) ... heu, really?!

During Facebook's announcement of new features on the 6th of July (https://www.facebook.com/FacebookLive), Mark Zuckerberg compared several times the growth in social sharing to the exponential growth in the capabilities of computer hardwares, known as the Moore's Law, i.e. the number of transistors that can be placed inexpensively on an integrated circuit doubles approximately every two years.

For Zuckerberg, people will share 2 times more next year than this current year and so on and so forth... Despite the "appeal" of such a comparison, Mark ommits to take into account 2 simple parameters: (i) the process capability of a human being is limited (ii) time is a scarce resource (e.g. 24hrs/day).

Hence, if the growth in social sharing increases exponentially, this will lead in a medium-term time horizon to an overflow of information - users being not able to digest and treat all the data - and so to a depreciation of information, leading potentially to the end of digital social sharing.

To cite Moore about the limit of his law "It can't continue forever. The nature of exponentials is that you push them out and eventually disaster happens."

Ask HN: How do I get into coding? (law student)
Hey HN,

I am a current law student, but feel that I have a major gap in my knowledge when it comes to coding, for both apps and websites. I have used an Arduino for some basic things, but have no concept of aesthetics or digital functions.

Are there any open source softwares and tutorials you would would recommend? Ideally I would be able to learn in short blasts instead of long lessons.

Thanks!

Open source Android app designs FIR digital filters from performance specs
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ledin.firdesign
The FIR Filter Designer app designs minimal-order finite impulse response (FIR) digital filters based on performance specifications you provide. The application attempts to find the lowest order (smallest) set of FIR filter coefficients that satisfies the given specifications. The generated filter has approximately unity (0 dB) gain in the passband. The output of the design procedure is a list of double-precision filter coefficients (Text output option) or an implementation of the filter in C/C++, C#, Java or MATLAB/GNU Octave source code. This output is formatted into an email you can send to any recipients.

Show HN: XSWR – The simplest React data (re)fetching library ever made
https://github.com/hazae41/xswr
Hey there, I made a new library for React data fetching.

XSWR is very inspired from SWR (which stands for "Stale While Revalidate").

In fact, it's a side project I made to fill in the gaps of SWR, that ended up production-ready.

XSWR uses two new approaches compared to other data fetching libraries like swr or react-query:

- Encapsulating key, fetcher and resource type in a single abstraction called "handle".

- Composing features with very simple hooks instead of having bloated configuration patterns and unexpected behaviours.

By using these two approaches, XSWR aims to help you highly centralize and reuse things.

Docs:
