Shouldnt really be a problem unless those mp3s have malicious code for that particular decoder

Should be somewhat careful with using LOC as a decent metric for code

Number of fixed vulnerabilities does not equal number of times exploited. A vulnerability may be exploited many times by many different people.

I cannot possibly imagine that Norway would gamble with such a large stake in a single company. Such funds usually have some strategies to reduce risk and thereby protect the wealth of their citizens.

touchscreens work in cars, just not for stuff you need while driving.

VT is more than just the antivirus engines. If you subscribe (expensive!) you can actively hunt for malware using Yara-rules and a powerful search engine. if you know some patterns in malware you are tracking, you can add Yara rules that will run each time a file is uploaded and will notify you of any matches.

Lets assume you know a threat actor always uses the same variable names during heap sprays, you can discover new malware from this threat actor with a Yara rule to look for this pattern.

I thought half of the problem was the locked down platform and not the technology itself.

Exactly. This point does not get sufficient attention to make it a competitive advantage. And it absolutely should be!

At this point, the only thing I care about is whether or not they plan on releasing quality software updates in a timely manner for a reasonable amount of time...

Privacy to print documents without permission?

This is true.

Bring back IronPython!

Are they trying to say that the democracy is now worse because the wrong guys was elected?

Its really great, but some of the APIs could have been re-designed slightly when they "rebooted" the framework... e.g. getting rid of factory patterns when strictly not needed and such for added consistency.

Probably less people than the number of people that have the radio turned off anyway, so that could be considered "good enough"

Perhaps its not dependent on OS version like the stock one?

Who decides what is fake and what is not?

Although I get your point, Windows has more powerfull configuration options than you might think as a user. E.g.Windows defender can be permanently disabled through administrative templates for your computer.

Who in their right mind would give their VISA to Sony at this point?

Anyone know why this is? This was quite disappointing...

Why is Python doing so much worse than PHP?

This is cool, however, Postgres could probably achieve higher performance without the GPU as well if they added concurrency on the CPU for certain type of operations (e.g. aggregation, sorting, etc). That would be a killer feature.

I former client of mine said that employees with and without college degrees would perform equally at his company, but the big difference was the ability to adapt to changes (e.g. changes in technology or changes in assigned responsibility). Once there was a big enough shift in the assigned activities for some reason, the people with college degrees was able to quickly adapt, while the others were lagging behind.

From my point of view, that makes sense. Isn't the primary goal of a college education to learn the ability to learn?
