Apple will release an iPhone update Friday that CEO Steve Jobs promised today "fixes lots of bugs," including the dropped call problem that's plagued users since July
...lots of public data to draw from, and the incidence rate at any given hospital is large enough that we can start to make valid statistical judgments about the impact of our changes
Contrast this with software and the differences in both area, and maturity, are quite telling. We don't have any standard measures of success/failure, we don't...
...lots of odd places when we were on the road, took cheap flights with multiple layovers and purchased lots of our first test equipment on eBay. This was during the dot-com bust so there was lots of equipment for sale on eBay, really cheap
Richard: The amount of equipment I had in my house was absolutely crazy. Back then, servers were huge I...
...lots of people that work as consultants and/or inside companies have to jump through lots of hoops to get a security vulnerability taken seriously
In many cases I see people spending hours and hours crafting a working proof-of-concept exploit for a vulnerability and needing to actually demonstrate that exploit to get the issue taken...
...lots of disgruntled employees who care little for your security regime. The air disaster was an example of how lots of seemingly unimportant events (lots of little chickens) came together and resulted in a mid-air collision (the crocodile).

Wrigley is baseball Mecca

...lots of (mainly Google) ads, and thereby make their creators loads of money
Well, this one hallwebhosting.com is a little different. I first came across it a few months back when it was clearly still under development, but it seems to have settled down now so that its worth looking at exactly what theyre doing
The problem that such sites have...
...lots of samples of existing worm code in lots of places on the Internet now. Just because they dont know about it doesnt mean its not there
The existing samples of code that we have are always plagued by three things though, which makes them difficult to work with and which I dont care about. Each contain obfuscation for filter evasion, which...
...lots of advantages
BUT... What we have created is "Dense Computing" which is putting a lot of security eggs into one basket. Imagine having a Blade Server with 12 blades in it, each blade having 8 CPU cores fitting into about 15U of rack space. You now have 96 CPU's to drive your operating systems and applications. Wow! In the old days that...
