Interesting,
It looks like they are were able to capture very a weak zeptojoule signal from a second cell phone. If so then the attacker would probably need to execute code from a second phone within 1-5 meters of the target.
The photograph in the article looks real and it implies that they are attacking a coprocessor hardware implementation of Peter Montgomery's modular multiplication method. In the screenshot the gap labled 'Only 23 data points' seems to be the pattern they are looking for before the Montgomery multiplication algorithm begins. They are probably able to discover the Hamming weights.
If so.. this technique is not new at all... and this type of attack was known as far back as 2002.
What is interesting here is that this can be accomplished with a consumer device.

P.S.
Companies and research groups should not allow anyone to take cell phone pictures of the white board.

It is always nice to stand on the shoulder of giants. Wouldn’t you rather implement your GUI on something that has been battle tested in the field for years in many different fields? Now your .NET apps can be cute

Microsoft has taken the oppor-tuna-ty to install a webcam next to its undersea data center, offering live views of just how well the metal container is rusting and the hundreds of fish suddenly interested in cloud data and artificial intelligence. I wonder if they splurged and got one of those treasure chests that opens occasionally?

Of course not, they just spy on you to sell the data. The ads are just random, they are easier and cheaper to deliver.

You will be able to run new and existing Windows desktop applications on .NET Core and enjoy all the benefits that .NET Core has to offer, such as application-local deployment and improved performance. Windows Forms everywhere* (* wherever windows forms might be able to run)

I was elated for a moment until I realized it is for Windows only. Why would anyone expend time and effort to port his WinForm and WPF application to .NET Core for no visible gain?

That was the part I couldn't figure out as well. I guess so you can have the joy of porting?

Do you have a link to anything more comprehensive - ideally looking at a real world application running on both platforms - even in aggregate microbenches are of limited value and one by itself says almost nothing.

This article covers a (much) wider cross-section of APIs, including file access, cryptography, networking, etc. Still benchmarks, but illustrates improvements across the board which should translate to improved app performance...

Interesting. That also says they're planning to backport most of the changes to the main framework. But I'd guess they'd probably wait until 4.8 at the soonest since I wouldn't expect major internal rewrites in a 4.7.x release.

Time-sharing systems got a lot right from a security standpoint. "We aimed toward a completely lights-out, 'no chance for mistakes' interface," says the security researcher. "Remember when systems had operators who were trained to operate the computer, instead of having everyone operate their own computers with no training at all? It was big mistake, in retrospect."
