Great article. I do agree with it, while I'd add this conclusion (personal opinion): - Usefulness of visualizing the codebase, interconnections, memory layouts - all of these are a…

Awesome work!

The way the first paragraph was written instantly reminded me of Douglas Adams and his works. Glad to see another one. :)

I'm amazed by the fact this had actually gone through several levels of approval, and yet nobody noticed anything wrong with a request to snap a photo of your CC and post it online…

Actually, the only thing the hacker didn't do is ask the dude politely to give him (or her) the money. This wasn't a 0day bug, no XSS. The dude gave the hacker permission to run an…
