Q: Requests for Question of The Week blog posts

Rory AlsopSince starting the Security Stack Exchange Blog on 15 July 2011 we have some excellent blog posts, and a large number of these are from our Question of the Week posts. Going forwards, it is probably simplest to post your favourite Questions of the week as answers on this question, and vote for yo...

@RoryAlsop I'm actually doing a blog post but not a QOTW :(

@LucasKauffman even better!
@FEichinger well, I have no way of paying anyone :-)

@RoryAlsop Free sec.se shirt for every post? ;)

@RoryAlsop free shirt for every 5 post?

@RоryMcCune aye aye
@LucasKauffman yay - I'd get 8 t-shirts!

@RoryAlsop is there any way to obtain SE shirts actually?

@LucasKauffman Conference packs I think?
 
FEichinger

Yeah.
 
Lucas Kauffman

sec.se
mmmm

Poking Tim Post drops loot if you have the right stick. Elections drop loot.

@FEichinger Not site-specific loot anymore.

@FEichinger Elections don't get you site specific shirts though.

@TerryChia: they do, on some sites.

@TerryChia They used to.

Most of the elections I lost were site specific shirts
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@FEichinger Also, poking with the right stick...? That a euphemism?
 
Rory Alsop
Rory Alsop
Yeah - now conf packs are the only way to get site specific swag, as far as I am aware
 
FEichinger
FEichinger
@TerryChia Maybe.
 
Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
but bigger sites - I have AU and SF shirts from elections
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@FEichinger Hmm, last sec.se one got me a generic SE shirt.
 
Iszi
Iszi
7:35 AM
I got site-specific shirts for participation on RPG.SE, Sec.SE, and Gaming.SE. All I got for running in the Sec.SE election was a generic SE pack.
 
Journeyman Geek
Journeyman Geek
@RoryAlsop: that might make me a sad panda. I kinda want a replacement SU shirt, since mine's getting ratty.
 
Lucas Kauffman
Lucas Kauffman
@AviD did you get a promo pack?
@AviD how much beer would a shirt cost me?
 
AviD
AviD
@LucasKauffman supposedly its on its way....
@LucasKauffman Just one... in Tel Aviv. ;-)
 
FEichinger
FEichinger
Maybe Sec.SE doesn't have loot right now for some reason?
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@FEichinger It's probably because the shirt whore @RoryAlsop took them all.

FEichinger
FEichinger
7:38 AM
My guess would be that they're cutting down on the election loot, to keep the con packs intact.
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
He might have that "right stick" you mentioned earlier.
 
FEichinger
FEichinger
I know this year AU still got shirts.
I got a SE shirt, but that's because I asked for one.
 
Rory Alsop
Rory Alsop
@TerryChia Many have passed through my hands, and are now with deserving security people I have met
:-)
Most of my site specific shirts are for contributing. I have a couple from elections though.
I have to say, the swag packs are better than just the T-shirts, though
@FEichinger seems reasonable
 
AviD
AviD
@RoryAlsop yeah, last year they sent a big pile of flashlights.
FLASHlights.
and stickers.

@RoryAlsop Are you saying that if I visit you in Scottland I can get a shirt?

@AviD are they still giving out those mini-question cards?

I'm sorry, but Bicycles.SE just reminds me of this.

@RoryAlsop uh

I have added another option to the QOTW list:

A: Requests for Question of The Week blog posts

Rory AlsopI think Jack's question "Can my IT department read my Google Hangouts chats while at work?" is definitely interesting. We have various questions on privacy expectations at work, and the answers on this one are nice and clear. Another example: Can an employer access Whatsapp messages if you are ...

@RoryAlsop @AviD bought a #shinymac, grew a neckbeard, starting working at a Silicon Valley startup, learnt Kotlin and still hasn't got around to writing the blog post he promised 2 years ago.

@TerryChia heh
Jewish holidays, finish around mid October.
things should settle down here by then.
'course which year is still a good question....

amusingly, adding that qotw was very difficult. SE said my post was too trivial and converted it to a comment

@RoryAlsop Shame on you and your low content posts!
 
Rory Alsop
Rory Alsop
@FEichinger yup. I was hoping it might be a more relaxed rule on meta
 
FEichinger
FEichinger
8:12 AM
@RoryAlsop It should be even less relaxed on meta!
If you're not posting at least five paragraphs of 200 words each, you're a terrible human being and should be permanently postbanned on meta.

Uhu.

How can you prefer women, when gender is not an issue on SO? There is always the chance the pretty blonde damsel in an avatar is in reality a 50 yr overweight truck driver. (But him having an SO account is again a plus.) — Jongware 21 hours ago
What does everyone have with 50yo truckers? Geez, it's almost like an obsession.
 
Simon
Simon
@FEichinger It's simply a stereotype but yes, some truckers are damn creepy.

@FEichinger that's weird, I literally picked that stereotype at random... must be more stereotypical that I had thought...

Oh come on, everyone but Clarkson.

or atleast that's what code on the internet seems to indicate
 
Simon

4:05 PM
@AJHenderson That's an existing function?
Yup, it is, neat. Fuck PDO, that's my new favorite function.
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
In PHP, SQL injection is a feature.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
@Simon oh I'm sorry, that one was actually part of a library, I should have said mysql_query($userinput)
 
Simon
Simon
Oh, I saw it in a library too, whoopsies.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
@TerryChia well, preventing SQL Injection WOULD make the code less usable to hackers
so we can't have that
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@AJHenderson I'm not sure that's true at all... There's always XSS or CSRF.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
4:08 PM
@TerryChia yes, but that makes it so much harder to manipulate the DB for fun and profit
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@AJHenderson Nah, just use the username and password embedded in HTML comments.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
who cares if we can hijack users or their account if we can't make the system fail catastrophically by dropping db
@TerryChia oh come on now, don't you think the web admin was smart enough to limit queries to localhost
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@AJHenderson Erm...
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
clearly we should give the DBA some credit
 
Terry Chia
Terry Chia
@AJHenderson "Why do we need DBAs? Can't we just install xampp?"
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
4:13 PM
because I can't install MySQL on my shared hosting plan that costs $3 a year
and includes a domain name
and we'll give them the benefit of the doubt they are marginally competent at hosting then, even if we probably shouldn't

Basically, yes.
Maybe we can even fix some of the errors as we do.
 
CodesInChaos
CodesInChaos
4:29 PM
What I don't get why people blame DNSSEC for that. It's an inherent problem in having a central registry managing a TLD.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
@CodesInChaos yeah, DNSSEC doesn't change the fact that your DNS server isn't authoritative unless that same central authority says it is
DNSSEC just lets you say, "no, I really AM the authoritative DNS server, I have proof"
 
CodesInChaos
CodesInChaos
You can add betrayal detection, but DENIC/the German government can force a transfer of a .de domain. In many cases that's desirable, for example to enforce trademarks.
If you want no central authority, add a separate TLD with different rules. Such as .onion or namecoin.

Q: Does microwaving a CD erase it?

JonathanI just read the question: Does microwaving a hard drive erase it? and now I am curious too... does microwaving a CD erase it? My initial thought is that some data would remain, but that it would largely corrupt the data.

That'd be a dumb rule for me considering most of the artists I care about are located in NL.
 
AJ Henderson
AJ Henderson
though I do sometimes make exceptions if I a) really like them and b) know someone who has worked with them that can vouch for them being good peoplez

Also, following them offers a chance to meet them since you'll know if they are in town.

@RоryMcCune That is interesting. I know have hard evidence that I'm exactly as popular on Twitter as I suspected I was. And that level of popularity can roughly be described as: "pleasantly anonymous."
I'm a sucker for data.

@Xander yeah I've looked enviously at mac'ys with their little snitch for a while and this seems like a possible windows equivalent, albeit in beta at the moment.. I'm planning to install it on the home laptop first to see what it's like.
