Hmm. Maybe you were thinking about elemental mercury vs methyl mercury? That’s a case where the danger (at least through ingestion) depends greatly on the format.

I didn’t know they’d be able to tap into the Firefox profiling tools, that’s neat! Probably great data to have as they get into debugging of more complex websites.

This was an awesome read!

Hey watch it, I’m 70% slime!

Nah, it’s more like a wet baseball. Only 0.02% water by mass. Source

Edit: My bad, you asked about liquid, not just water, so this is less relevant but I’ll leave it as some trivia.

No future issues. But there isn’t that much of the tooth left, I have a crown there which is most of what’s visible. Make sure you look up or have explained to you the steps of the procedure so you aren’t surprised.

So far, we haven’t been able to trace back to the initial compromise vector in the campaigns seen in our telemetry.

They hypothesize that attaching a compromised USB drive to an air gapped system is to blame. That seems to be a well known vector at this point. Does it matter much what tool is used to copy data once it’s in?

I’ve had a number of cavities repaired but only one root canal. It wasn’t a fun day, sure, but one thing that I appreciate was that it was such a complete fix for the problem. Some of my other work has had to be repaired, or I’ve had more issues on the same tooth. But with the root canal I went from being in a lot of pain to having none at all.

Because this viewpoint exists I died to crime.

Thanks a lot

Also worth mentioning that as the ISS was being constructed, its planned retirement was to be about 2015. We’ve been able to massively extend its operational period, which is awesome, but the materials can’t last forever.

My go to for most of what you mention is Go, but that’s obviously a compiled language and not for scripting. Or is it - What do you think about https://github.com/traefik/yaegi, which provides an interpreter and REPL for Go? It would let you use a performant and well documented language in a more portable scripting way, but not preclude you from generating statically linked binaries if and when that’s convenient.

This was my favorite detail of the master plan:

Joshua Hunsucker had told two coworkers that if he killed someone he would do so using eyedrops, according to court documents.

Early days is one thing, but if this is the entirety of the code

Then there isn’t much to have a discussion about…

This is probably the worst example to choose, because in the US the generic name is acetaminophen. This is a case where the brand name actually unites understanding of a drug whose chemical name differs by location.

That being said, I still agree with the spirit, let’s stick to referring to the drug and not the brand.

TL;DR: Magnets. China makes almost all of them so any time we see something that might replace rare earth metals we get excited. In this case because a group made improvements to our ability to synthesize tetrataenite, an iron-nickel alloy, by adding phosphorus.

he had done at least four other contracts with Achter via text. He said the only difference this time was Achter responded with a “thumbs-up” emoji instead of “ok”, “yup” or “looks good.”

I think this precedent set between the two parties is relevant, giving an otherwise casual text message a little more authority. Not that one word text responses are how you should enter a contract, but it’s what they had already been doing.
