Tweets for Today

  • 09:18 Falls off static bike for the day.... new day, new SDK, new "How the hell does that work".... #
  • 09:23 Bah, unable to download the updated docs for the <coughcough> SDK... #
  • 09:35 Anyone else having trouble getting at the updated 74MB of docs in the enohPi KDS* #
  • 10:12 Well, this is a pain... no docs downloaded makes migrating code mighty head hurty. #
  • 10:12 Decides to relax a bit and just wait for the docs to come back... #
  • 10:28 Gets his code to build again.... phew... :) #
  • 13:50 Ok, now I'm getting irritated by the inability of the Docs viewer to download the updated doc set. Grrr.... #
  • 14:25 Is it just me or is the enohPi KDS doc set just not downloading.... #
  • 15:47 Arse. Turns out I'm getting "Access Denied" to the new documentation. Sends mail. Doesn't expect rapid response. #
  • 16:12 @mattgemmell Are you implementing Terminal 5 2.0 then? :) #
  • 16:16 Is quite pleased to have made it simple for people to identify him online; I'm codepope everywhere.... #
  • 16:23 Why was the Macbook Air hacked first at CanSecWest? Because nobody wanted a Vista or Ubuntu laptop. >boom-tish< #
  • 16:37 @hypocrisy Everything is vulnerable, it's all down to incentive and admit it, a MacBook Air is pretty damn incentivising :) #
  • 16:41 @hypocrisy You are assuming that they were notified in advance. If a patch was already out, the hack wouldn't have worked. == No Win. #
  • 16:48 @hypocrisy They may be serious, but that doesn't mean they didn't want to win the competition. It's why I think Attackfests are a bad idea. #
  • 16:55 @hypocrisy Er, $10K and the reputation of being the fastest cracker of a system is worth plenty in security terms. #
  • 17:03 @hypocrisy Anyway, till we know the facts and until the patch is out the only people who know are ZDI and Charlie Miller and Apple (now) #
  • 17:27 Sheer audacity +20 - xrl.us/bii2k (Link to news.bbc.co.uk) #
  • 17:34 @hypocrisy Read the rules of the competition - xrl.us/bii2x - No previous disclosure, only via ZDI (otherwise it ain't 0-day) #
  • 17:55 @hypocrisy "Any discussion of the bug prior to the public disclosure of a ZDI advisory will result in forfeiting of the prize." - the rules #
  • 18:03 @hypocrisy It doesn't say "public disclosure", it says "discussion", which is far more all encompassing. #
  • 18:42 Sigh. Packing in for the day. With no docs and an updated SDK it's somewhat frustrating. #
