It's a list of spoofed addresses. That means they are pretending to be Dreamhost, not that Dreamhost is compromised.

What's the probability of correctly predicting HIGHER/LOWER 13 days in a row?

(1/2)^13 = 1/8192

Headline says one thing; final paragraph says another: "Bottom line? The Internet is quickly changing the way we allocate our time, but there’s no call to panic yet. You might want to stop reading this thing on the Internet and get back to work, though."

Why do we care what Woz thinks of Apple's current product line? I'm genuinely confused.

No, I do not. I have no reason to distrust him but equally no reason to unthinkingly trust. I listen to his opinions and take them into account.

Welcome to HN where the top-rated comment is from someone who admits they didn't read the presentation, doesn't understand what the author was saying and manages to complain.

He does talk about arrays on slide 25 and the last slide is about the problem of global scope.

Fun. This isn't really specific to Redis, but is a good introduction to the sort of thing that C programmers often get up to. You'll see this sort of function table in all sorts of C programs. Take a look at GNU stuff like make and you'll see the same format.

Congratulations on the exploring.

I don't think this is right. You should reduce the entire attack surface. Since Bruce is worried about malware getting in via a removable device and cites examples that attacked Windows he should not use Windows.

Seems to me the only reason to choose Windows for this would be to use Microsoft Office to read the NSA documents and he's stated that he's using OpenOffice, so...

Surprised that he decided to use Windows.

I'm always uneasy with the idea of (RED) charity: the message is "save the world by buying stuff". It's just consumerism with a bit of karma, no?

Interesting. It's sad, then, that Nest does not emphasise that fact.

I wonder what battery life is like on this? A typical smoke alarm battery can last years but this appears to have a lot of functions and WiFi and a light.

BTW Why do smoke alarm batteries die at night? Because temperature drops and a weak battery's voltage output drops with temperature.
