The botnet consisted solely of D-Link NAS and NVR devices and the botnet peaked at 10,000 bots in 2015. I know I've said that "everyone needs a hobby", but some people need better hobbies

He must really, really like anime.
Can you imagine the size of his anime storage system!

About 10000 D_Link Nas-bots?

Maybe not. Some anime ranks among the best and most thought-provoking entertainment I've ever watched, and boobies were not prominent features: Princess Mononoke. Avatar: The Last Airbender, and most other Studio Ghibli productions. Akira, an all-time classic according to many, has little to do with boobies.

Security has become enough of a drumbeat issue that its importance has trickled down from the CISOs through the security organization to software developers. Or phrased another way: Developers receiving blame for security issues (again)

So.. computer says no.

Google's sister firm Sidewalk Labs has scrapped a plan to build a smart city in Canada, citing complications caused by the Covid-19 pandemic. I'd make a joke about "smart" and "Toronto" here, but no one would get it (plus it would be unfair. to Ottawa)

A hacker claims to have stolen over 500GB of data from Microsoft's private GitHub repositories, BleepingComputer has learned. 500GB? So they downloaded half of a PowerPoint presentation?
Seeing as how that org is used for open source projects (as opposed to Windows or docs), I'm not expecting bad stuff, but you never know.

500GB of new icons! Don't diminish the seriousness of this.

Physicists Criticize Stephen Wolfram’s ‘Theory of Everything’ [^]Quote: “says Daniel Harlow, a physicist at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. So far I see no indication that this could be done using the simple kinds of [computational rules] advocated by Wolfram. The successes he claims are, at best, qualitative.” Further, even that qualitative success is limited: There are crucial features of modern physics missing from the model. And the parts of physics that it can qualitatively reproduce are mostly there because Wolfram and his colleagues put them in to begin with. This arrangement is akin to announcing, “‘If we suppose that a rabbit was coming out of the hat, then remarkably, this rabbit would be coming out of the hat,’” Aaronson says. “And then [going] on and on about how remarkable it is.”

I can't say I'm overly surprised. It did strike me as one of those, "I'm Smart, so I'll stomp into a field and fix all their problems[1]" scenarios. He's definitely got an uphill battle to convince researchers that he's on to something. Assuming there is something there.
[1] Granted, this is something that physicists often suffer from.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I am more intersected in your tag line (quote). Reality is what we make it; actually it is what the majority unconscionably agree is reality. Basically, the majority of us (world wide) just wants to live our life and be left alone. I do not know of any religion that is not an illusion created to get everyone on the same page.
There is only one requirement in life; and that's to be the best person you can be.

Engineers have built and successfully tested what is known as a rotating detonation engine, which generates thrust via a self-sustaining wave of detonations that travel around a circular channel. "Boom boom boom boom I wanna go boom boom"
I have half a memory that this was the propulsion system used by a ship in some SF. Can anyone remind me?
|

You're thinking of the Orion drive, probably. Nukes set off beneath a concave disk to create the thrust.
Heinlein was the first to use it in a story (according to WikiP), but many have used it over the years, for instance Troy used it to move around in John Ringo's Troy Rising series.
