For what it's worth, in the UK it seems to be marketed fine. First thing I think of is "Waterproof Android iPhone-alternative." It's just expensive and I don't think the market for premium Android phones is all that large when you can get an almost-as-good experience with a dirt-cheap Moto G.
Off the top of my head the only way to exploit this would be either by your ISP or the security services (via your ISP, or the router manufacturer).

Since WAN mac addresses don't travel very far upstream. Typically only to the local exchange. So in order for someone to utilise that to generate a WPS key they would have to sit at the exchange (on your side of the connection) and do it.

The manufacturer might also store the WAN mac addresses of each piece of equipment they produce (along with serial, etc) and depending on the supply chain you purchased the router down or if you registered it, they could figure out your router's WAN/WPS pin that way.

In general PIN-based WPS is a bad idea. Turn it off and do button WPS only. Or turn it on only as needed.
Just shot a response back earlier. Yes, we are focused on Revit and SketchUp models from a business perspective, however since our engine is built around .FBX almost all CAD modeling software can use it. In terms of ME fab though, we aren't implementing that quite yet.

The point is that they can actually. A cabinet maker could build a fairly large boat at least (maybe not a ship...) entirely by hand and mostly using very simple rules of thumb. It probably wouldn't perform very well but it would float and be able to sail around.

Amateurs build small boats that cross the Atlantic and even the Pacific all the time, precisely because ship building is easier than building rockets.

When I say it's easier, that doesn't mean that naval architects aren't as smart as rocket engineers, but the ratio of engineering effort to performance is much more favourable.

They manage abuse by expecting networks to handle malicious users, and blocking entire networks that fail to do so. Tor doesn't handle abuse by design so gets blocked a lot. It's not being singled out our treated specially in that regard.
If you skip the middle step, that's called staging.

An expert in the psychedelic experience would likely say that through this experience you learned both the nature of depression and how to grow beyond it.

These things are not "recreational." Their effects are difficult to predict, highly individual, and while often transformative are not always pleasantly so. Yet I've found both myself and with most people I've known who have used these things, the effects tend to be on balance positive.

The only exception is people who chronically abuse these substances. Using them irresponsibly, repeatedly, and carelessly can indeed destroy your mind. I've seen it.

I had an interesting experience myself many years ago that was very beneficial.

When I was younger I was often an underachiever. When I tried I scored off the charts, and when I found things I liked (like programming) I would self-educate to the amazement of adults (was doing 6502 machine code at 8). But I just didn't have any desire to do anything "out there" that was strong enough to motivate me to deal with the annoying hoops you have to jump through to get there. I always hated school and did poorly at it, and had no idea what I wanted to do. I think I really dreaded growing up.

After the experience, all that changed and rather abruptly. I returned to college after having left, and my GPA went from <2.0 before to >3.5. My first quarter back was full of A's and B's, not C's and D's, and this mostly continued through to the end. I did change major, from CS to biology, because I'd had this huge epiphany about how if you want to understand AI you have to understand how life actually does intelligence. So I proceeded to finish all my bio prereqs in accelerated time and still managed to finish with a high GPA in 2 years. Then I went into research, biotech, and eventually got into startups (but that's another story).

I ended up working in CS, but the bio-inspired intelligence research is still a strong interest of mine and I follow the literature pretty religiously. I might go back to it if I'm ever able to make a gig out of it. In bio I also learned a lot of math and science stuff that I've used on a regular basis since then for other purposes, as well as a uniquely biologically-informed way of looking at complex systems and economies and such.

Ever since that experience, my output increased astronomically in every area. I also became more socially active and generally more positive.

Still, any time someone asks me about psychedelics I always give them both a dose of optimism and a dose of caution. As I said I've seen "acid casualties." These things are powerful and should not be used without respect. I haven't personally touched these things in many many years, and haven't had much interest in doing so. I feel like whatever benefit I was able to get has already been achieved.

Edit: I wasn't trying to make some point against the original commenter, just relating my own experience. If you delve into the literature you'll find an enormous variety of experiences both positive and negative.
> WAN mac addresses don't travel very far upstream

This doesn't matter, and it's addressed in the post. He mentions many devices actually do use the BSSID (which is sent in every wireless frame), and the WAN MAC is usually very close to the BSSID anyway so you can guess it in very few tries.

Craig is so damn smart. I love how he went in looking to exploit some format string vulnerability, or an incorrect escaping of arguments passed to system(). But came out with a way to systematically grab WPA/2 keys from D-link.
Why would D-link roll their own WPS key generation scheme? All the in-home routers i've seen come with the WPS pin set in NVRAM and written on the bottom of the router.
Slack has been around since February 2014. An eight-month-old company raising $120M is damn impressive, no matter how you spin it.

This is just another testament to b2b software. They only have a couple thousand customers, but that's enough to get them a $1.12B valuation. If my mental math is right, that's roughly 200k per current customer? This is probably a strategic play on the part of GV/KPCB, moving into the enterprise market where they already have investments. They will leverage partnerships with other portfolio companies to multiply Slack's revenue, likely bringing that valuation in range closer to $XX,000 per customer -- far more reasonable in Enterprise.

Nice job Slack!
By "orbital velocity", I assume you mean orbital velocity relative to the sun. The need for this clarification should be the first indication that we do not already have the necessary orbital velocity (as there is no particular reason to use the sun as the reference other than the fact that it is the more massive body). This diagram [0] shows the Earth-Sun Lagrange points. As you can see, they all have a slightly different orbital radius around the sun, and therefore will have different orbital velocities (larger radius=slow velocity). Additionally, (most) of these points have a different direction, which would means a different velocity. (However, we can change direction for free simply by orbiting, and as long as our orbit is different from Earth's we will change our direction relative to Earth as well).

The bigger issue is 'escaping' Earth's gravity well[1]. The most efficient way to do this is through an orbit. To see this, consider the effect of gravitational drag. That is to say, the speed lost due to the force of gravity. If you are in orbit, the net gravitational drag is 0 [2]. Suppose you are at point P of an orbit, travelling at speed V. If you accelerate with X delta-V at this point in the orbit, your new orbit will still contain point P, and you will pass through P with velocity (V+X), indicating that there was 0 gravitational drag. Intuitively, this is because you are accelerating perpendicular to the force of gravity.

Another way to look at this is to remember that there is no particular reason to prefer using the Sun as a reference point, in which case we can see that Lagrange points are also in Earth orbit.

However, your idea does point to a (theoretical) way to reduce fuel usage. When calculating the fuel needed to establish an orbit, we assume that Earth is the only massive body. However, we can (in theory) use the gravitational force of the sun to reduce the needed fuel to reach Earth orbit (in a way that has nothing to do with Lagrange points). However, the effect is not significant enough to be worth talking about.

[0] http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Lagrange_...
[1] Of course, by definition of Lagrange points, we are not actually escaping
[2] Unless the orbit is circular, gravity will change your speed, but the acceleration/deceleration will balance out.
That's a coincidence : I just bought an Arc Notebook[1] from Staples with the express will to try this (I really like to be able to rearrange pages). So far (a few weeks), it's going very well. I tweaked the process to my taste but the idea remains the same.

I really wanted to implement my calendar and todo-workflow on my smartphone. The idea of having everything synced everywhere and to be able to "do" stuff everywhere was really compelling. A few months later, I'm back to paper and pen because the feeling and the level of control is so much better when I write.

Another thing I realized is that I'm a doodler. My to-do lists are messy, filled with small drawings but I still understand everything. Fitting them into a computerized list feels like trying to insert a square peg into a round hole.

I know that my journal won't scale easily, but I can't imagine being way busier than I'm now for a little while.

I use XBMC running on an R-Pi and control it with a cheap "media center" remote control [1]. While it does include a "mouse function" via a kind of d-pad I've only ever had to use it a handful of times to do things which are so rare I haven't bothered to bind a button to them; ie: force a video to a certain aspect ratio because it was encoded badly.

For the 99.9% of interactions with the system the remote is superior to a mouse.

> While email can be used for group communication, it's not ideal for the typical and constant interactions of a small team. Let's consider one use case. In email, file sharing with an individual is a multi-step process (new message, select recipient, insert subject, add attachment, write comments, send).

That's not so much a feature of "using email" as "the UX of a typical general-purpose email client". But, heck, the UX of sharing-via-email from even a typical Android app is somewhat more streamlined than what you present, and the same is true of many desktop apps that have email distribution as a feature. The recieving side is still a problem, though the kind of progress in email clients we've seen with -- just to look at gmail as an example -- schema-based actions and Inbox's workflow -- suggests that we may not be too far from the time when the recieve workflow for document-sharing-via-email is improved, after a fairly long period where email client workflows were fairly static.

I'm the same way, but this is slowly becoming a non-option. Even the cheap TVs are "smart" these days--it's no longer really a premium feature and just something that every TV has tacked on as a marketing bullet point. If you limit your new TV search to only "dumb" models your selection of options becomes almost comically tiny.

Fortunately, leaving the TV unplugged from the internet is still a viable option.
Great, so have the user explicitly put it in training mode.
- The syntax is clunky, but it's not a deal breaker, and it will be more familiar to our target audience.

If there are any areas in which this is still true, I urge you to value "familiarity" less. As I get older and older, I realize how long software timescales can be. In 40 years, people will still be programming in Rust, and nobody will remember why the syntax started out clunky. :-)
I think the biggest difference is that 37signals wasn't willing to offer an indefinite free version as a hook. Chat seems to be something that needs more room than a free trial and a low feature ceiling to catch on. Even a long free trial doesn't have the same effect as indefinite because it creates fear of wasting or misusing the trial. Humans are funny that way.
The automobile industry doesn't have a great record with software, though. And a self-driving car is orders of magnitude more complex than a single bit of logic sitting in a throttle or engine controller.
#1 sounds a little more plausible, otherwise this would probably be a more common occurrence.

Ask HN: How do you build your freelance work portfolio of closed source apps?
I have worked as a software developer for several years in a corporate environment. All of my work has been closed source development making CRUD apps for enterprise companies. Recently I started working on my own. I got few projects but they are still for enterprise companies and I'm developing their intranet webapps or their behind the login web apps. I'm wondering what is the best way to include them in my work portfolio. The best I can imagine is to link to my work that is online (But it would be behind the login and all anyone would see is their landing page). I think making a video and/or saving screenshots would be some confidentiality breach? Any suggestion or how you have done it for yourselves?

Edit: Just wanted to clarify what work I'm doing as a freelance developer. I'm doing full stack development. I use bootstrap with JavaScript MVC framework and Python or Java for backend.

The tie is only temporal, and it's still anonymized.

The only concession is that now the government you're avoiding might know you use Tor, if Facebook tells them.

Here's the usage case: you're a foreign national visiting a country with a restrictive firewall, like China's. Now you can continue to communicate with people back home.

Facebook already had your information, in this scenario, so nothing has changed except that they know people from China are desperate for their services. That's only good, in my book.
Yeah, same problem here. At first I thought he had skipped out on allowing you to type the mask, which is the killer feature of a utility like this.

Also, when typing into the binary input, it isn't updating immediately on key-up like the rest of the inputs -- I'm having to hit the arrow keys to get it to update.

Nice utility, though!

Even assuming that the lack of processing power on the TV is a correct theory, your comment misses the point here.

The issue is not about the intent of the manufacturer. Noble intent or not, the story is about what is enabled by this device. Any time you rely on noble intent of a 3rd party you are putting a lot of trust in them. Especially when those third parties can monetize your data without you ever knowing about it.

Technology provides the tools for mass surveilance and globally undermining trust, but it also provides tools for removing the need for trust, and apparently this smart TV adopts a "just trust us" approach.
Is there any reason at all the WPS pin would be derived from this kind of information? I don't want to seem paranoid, but this sounds like a backdoor?

None of those things are Scala specific. Nor are they solved by reading a list...even reading Code Complete is just a starting point. There's still a big gap to synthesis and execution.

Philosophically, isn't a list of best practices a form of technical debt? I mean all the burden of tooling it up has been kicked down the road. Then again, building an entire framework might be premature optimization.
I was actually working on a longer comment that would've included a mention of scratch. Right now the focus is on the robotics competition, but in the spring that may be something I try to introduce them to. The problem will be access to computers. There just aren't enough available for the entire group (though attendance has dropped recently, so unfortunately there may be enough computers to handle all of them soon).
Wow.

Just goes to show that this is definitely a great time to raise money!

Personally, I think Slack is smart to take the cash, although obviously it's going to require some serious discipline from them to make sure that it only helps them rather than hinders them.

I'm not an employee/investor/etc but I've been convincing freinds to apply to work at slack recently, I think if you are obsessed with productivity tools or communication tools, Slack, Asana or Quip are all companies worth looking at.

There's a compiled set of info on working at slack [1]. Disclaimer: I compiled it!

Back to my first point - now they have a ton of cash to hire a ton of people - very curious to see @slack in 6-12 months.

Cancelled, well not really. The PM Orban's reaction was the following:

- the tax cannot be introduced given the current reactions.

- people question the rationale behind this whole thing

- the whole argument went off track

He also said that they'll start a "national consultation" about the topic. Now a "national consultation" (invented by them a few years ago) means that they send out a paper via snail mail to every citizen who is eligible for voting (around 8 million out of 10). The questions are phrased manipulatively. We won't see a clear question like "Would you like to pay this tax YES/NO" option. It is usually it is phrased in a form like "Some people think this thing is good because blblablabla, while others think this is not that good because blablabla". Now it is always phrased in a very manipulative way and contains biased arguments. I mean arguments (i.e. campaigning) on the questionnaire itself.

Then of course no one controls or oversees the processing of the collected questionnaires. So it looks like a referendum but it's a plot device, a persuasion device to show fake support. The result can (and will) be manipulated, interpreted at will by the government.

The guy in charge of the 'consultation' is Tamas Deutsch, who previously called the protesters stinky bugs (while he also didn't agree with the idea of the tax). Also, FIDESZ (Orban's party) regularly and outrageously censor their FB page. They delete opposing but polite comments, ban users.

This happened to me after the first protest when their reaction was that they are open to arguments and discussion but reject vandalism (two windows of their empty HQ were broken by 5 people). I made a try. Posted 2 comments, got banned (comments deleted).

So while it is a major result for the people in Hungary, it by no means is a final victory.
