News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

Every prior analysis we found asked "what key decrypts these ciphers?" So I asked Claude to flip it: "how would you fake one sitting at a desk in the 1800s?", then we simulated six construction methods and found the match.

The hoaxer encoded nonsense letters by scanning forward through a physical printing of the Declaration of Independence.

The smoking gun: both ciphers' max values land on exact page boundaries of a 4-page octavo (p ≈ 0.0001), they never once reference the 11 words that spill past the last page break, AND they got sloppier as each encoding session wore on, something no hoaxer would ever think to deliberately reproduce.

Signal is in the monitoring space rather then cyber security.. still a relevant point though.. monitoring is very overlooked
Re:RightInbox Email Tracking Discontinued on Tuesday December 17, 2013 @10:09PM (#6925657)
I'm not sure, I only just saw the notice RightInbox provided on their blog. Boomerang provides an almost identical service with a few varying features.

It seems a little far fetched that there is a patent on the feature of email tracking. I can only presume it was how they delivered the product.

Hopefully we'll see them bounce back using another method.

Why are most CRM's B2B rather than B2C?

I've been trying to find a new CRM for my service company but it's like every CRM out there is optimized for Business to Business.My clients don't have companies that we bill to, we bill to them. I don't need any of those features and it's a major pain in the * working around them. B2C needs tend to be different from B2B and it's hard to fit one into the other.With some like Salesforce it's...

So the balloons just float on the air channels 20km up and presumably circulate around world? I can imagine problems coming up with some countries objecting to these being over their airspace.
Re:Hacking strength: Gaining muscle with least resistance on Saturday April 06, 2013 @05:25PM (#5505119)
Barbells are simply bigger and heavier dumbbells. However most dumbbells in the context the comment was referring to aren't heavy enough to actively engage the stabilizing muscles to any great effect.

The exercise also makes a big difference. Doing chest flys with dumbbells may feel like you are using a lot of stabilizers but actually you are no where near using as many as a free standing squat.

And of course you're using bigger muscles when doing more compound exercises so correspondingly the weight have to be bigger. I believe that's why in general most people would say barbells > dumbbells.
