Also here in Argentina we have Banco Credicoop, which is a credit union with more than 670,000 members. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banco_Credicoop

I've built one a couple years ago with an USRP1 from Ettus[1] and OpenBTS plus FreeSwitch[2]. It's pretty straightforward if you know what you're doing. In order to test the call i…

In my experience, hosted database providers are almost always either cost or latency prohibitive. Nowadays, in PostgreSQL is quite simple to replicate a db via log shipping[1]. You…

I somehow doubt that GCHQ geeks read anti-modernist manifestos. Depending on the age of the name pickers, I'd say they either went to the Hacienda nightclub at Manchester or saw 24…

I'm currently a fellow IBMer. Go to w3, search for "approved OS" and take your pick. I'm currently running fedora 20 with mate desktop. Works like a charm on a T430.

They're probably using DASH[1]. The video is split into several segments and therefore the player will fill the bufer only until the end of the current segment. Below each codescho…

some physicists at Sandia labs have been working on a similar technology: the counter rotating ring receiver reactor recuperator, or CR5[1]. Though it seems to be a long way from r…

Regretably, unless some sort of worldwide ethical commerce treaty is established in the near future, a "foxconnified" workforce will be a basic requirement in order to mass produce…

Except that, in that case, Apple will loose a lot of money from the free hardware. In this case, the only real loss for EA is the bandwidth. Since it would be safe to asume that th…

Interesting hack. As some of the MMORPGs have multi-million dollar economies, they'll need to increase their PCI level compliance. This reminds me of Charlie Stross's Halting State…

Great movie. In 1998 the EFF built a DES cracking machine like the one depicted in the movie[1]. Though it took 9 days to run through the whole DES cypher space, instead of doing i…

All (or most) comercial planes also have an amber LED alarm on the caution panel that says PITOT when the PITOT HEAT switch is turned off. If that alarm was functional and activate…

You can also find them in the movie. If I recall correctly, they were used by someone on the orbital Hilton and by the astronauts on the discovery. Samsung recently used the movie …

Yes but, in the case of android, the assembly work is rather trivial if they wanted to offer a standard android rom. Most of the complexity lies in the gui elements added by the ma…

I disagree. I think we're heading to a "Huxleyan" distopia were any "Spring" or uprising can be preempted by promoting rampant consumerism and the infinite distractions of the inte…

This. Most tutorials of Backbone/Ember js apps I've seen have thin backends that commit any json objects the clients send them. Data sanitization and validation on the backend shou…

Given Nauru's isolation and exposure to the elements, I'd rather install a couple 7.5MW Enercom wind turbines, a few MW worth of solar panels and maybe a tidal generator instead of…

The risk reduction is negligible if someone is doing a portscan on your host. Connection attempts to non standard ports will eventually occur. The better solution is to use single …

Most ISP's dns cache servers honor the TTL defined in the authoritative SOA records, unless is 1 minute or less. I think the average TTL time for a dns zone would be measured in mi…

Here.[1] Most of them are not single-box servers, but cluster with multisite redundancy. That's why all attacks were unsuccessful in the past. 1. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Root_…

As mentioned on the article's comments, when I used XFS about 8 years ago, I found exceptionally prone to data corruption. It remains the only filesystem that I couldn't at least p…
