> "After this story published, Apple told [Kim Zetter] they just posted the instruction about the DIT to their web site yesterday [MAR 21], timed to the public release of the researchers' findings, which means that developers were not told to do this fix prior to yesterday's release" [1]
The mitigation for the issue was posted in coordination with the publishing of the vulnerability. Given that the mitigation only applies to the M3 processor, it's reasonable to assume that there is no currently known mitigation for the M1 and M2 processors.
> The cryptographic key itself isn’t placed in cache. But bits of material derived from the key gets placed in the cache, and an attacker can piece these bits together in a way that allows them to reconstruct the key, after causing the processor to do this multiple times. The researchers were able to derive the key for four different cryptographic algorithms: Go, OpenSSL, CRYSTALS-Kyber and CRYSTALS-Dilithium.
> [Green] notes that in theory this attack might be used to break the TLS cryptography that a computer’s browser uses to encrypt communication between their computer and web sites, which could allow attackers to decrypt that communication to extract a user’s session cookie for their Gmail or other web-based email account and use it to log into the account as them.
I distinctly remember IV being big in the patent troll space, but I haven't seen anything recently. It looks like in the past ~8 years they have moved on or stopped for some reason.
I really don't understand how they can make this statement:
> The report states that when the car started, security video shows the owner in the driver's seat, contradicting reports at the time of the April 17 accident that the seat was empty when the car crashed.
Those two things aren't contradictory at all. The car's journey could have started with the driver in the driver's seat, but been empty when the crash occurred. A lot can happen in the time between the start and the end.
I believe the difference here is the temperature. If you look at KSTAR's operating tests you can see that they have run for 72 seconds in the past, so they must be implying 20 seconds at > 100M, or their statement about the 20s runtime would be invalidated by their own operating history.
What's more - the scientific article about the Tore Supra 2003 test is paywalled, but based on the abstract it looks like it was a test of: "simultaneously heat removal capability and particle exhaust in steady-state fully non-inductive current drive discharges" and not a test of maximum sustained temperatures.
This is where I diverge from Jimmy, as he is misinterpreting what the commenter is saying. The commenter is talking about _audit logs_ of changes to Wikipedia being kept in WORM compliant record, which is a good idea - audit logs should be immutable. Jimmy seems to be interpreting the comment as saying the pages of Wikipedia should be immutable, which obviously should not be the case.
Exactly. The case is not alleging that Walmart is engaging in a broad conspiracy, despite what the title of the article seems to suggest. It is simply saying that the plantif was terminated when he brought up to management that there were issues with how they were conducting business - "Walmart did not properly address these issues, its failure to do so could have serious long-term implications for its critically important e-commerce business."
Correct. There were several goals with the launch. The primary was successful payload insertion, the secondary goals were the successful return of the outer two boosters to land, and the central booster to a drone ship down range (success unknown). Additionally the goal was to recover the fairings, but the success of that is not publicly known at this time.
According to News Conference:
1) Elon confirmed that the faring recovery was not a goal as they have a new version of the faring in active development which should have a recovery strategy in place. 2) It appears that the center booster was definitely lost. 3) Loss of center booster was best case scenario for loosing one of the three boosters as the outer boosters had really sweet new titanium grid fins.
On a related note here is a proposal for a recent update to the animal emoji set. It's interesting to see the factors they consider when choosing whether or not to integrate a new emoji. I didn't know that much thought went into what they chose.
