He is hiring his first employees, and he wants to take steps to ensure these new hires don't steal the code and run away.

"I foresee disabling USB drives and DVD writers on my development machines," he writes. But will that be enough? See the original question here. Trust goes a long way ChrisF Answers (34 votes): You need to trust your developers. Virtually all professional developers won't steal your source. More so, distrust breeds distrust. By all means add a secrecy clause to your contract, but it's probably unnecessary to highlight it as the most important part of the contract. Who would buy on the black market? Bob Murphy Notes (17 votes): Related: "How to prevent code from leaking outside work? " DevOps. Set of software development practices DevOps is a methodology in the software development and IT industry. Used as a set of practices and tools, DevOps integrates and automates the work of software development (Dev) and IT operations (Ops) as a means for improving and shortening the systems development life cycle.[1] History[edit] Proposals to combine software development methodologies with deployment and operations concepts began to appear in the late 80s and early 90s.[2] Around 2007 and 2008, concerns were raised by those within the software development and IT communities that the separation between the two industries, where one wrote and created software entirely separate from those that deploy and support the software was creating a fatal level of dysfunction within the industry.[3] In 2009, the first conference named DevOps Days was held in Ghent, Belgium.

As of 2014, the annual State of DevOps report was published by Nicole Forsgren, Gene Kim, Jez Humble and others. See also[edit] Lean Startup. "Lean startup" is a method for developing businesses and products first proposed in 2011 by Eric Ries. Based on his previous experience working in several U.S. startups, Ries claims that startups can shorten their product development cycles by adopting a combination of business-hypothesis-driven experimentation, iterative product releases, and what he calls "validated learning".

Ries' overall claim is that if startups invest their time into iteratively building products or services to meet the needs of early customers, they can reduce the market risks and sidestep the need for large amounts of initial project funding and expensive product launches and failures.[1][2][3][4][5] Background[edit] Although the lost money differed by orders of magnitude, the failures of There, Inc. and Catalyst Recruiting share similar origins, with Ries stating that "it was working forward from the technology instead of working backward from the business results you're trying to achieve Origins[edit] Secret Drinks | Starbucks Secret Menu.

A beginner’s guide to building botnets—with little assembly required. Have a plan to steal millions from banks and their customers but can't write a line of code? Want to get rich quick off advertising click fraud but "quick" doesn't include time to learn how to do it?

No problem. Everything you need to start a life of cybercrime is just a few clicks (and many more dollars) away. Building successful malware is an expensive business. It involves putting together teams of developers, coordinating an army of fraudsters to convert ill-gotten gains to hard currency without pointing a digital arrow right back to you. In the process, these big botnet platforms have created a whole ecosystem of software and services in an underground market catering to criminals without the skills to build it themselves. The customers of these services often plan more for the short term than the long game played by the big cyber-crime rings. So how easy is it to get into the botnet business?

It looks like you’re trying to build a botnet… The marketplace of (bad) ideas. Cariadoc's Miscellany: The Perfect Armor. [This is an article from Cariadoc's Miscellany. The Miscellany is Copyright (c) by David Friedman and Elizabeth Cook, 1988, 1990, 1992. For copying details, see the Miscellany Introduction.] [ See also the new version of this article, The Perfect Armor (Improved). ] Suppose you were drawing up specifications for the perfect armor. Hardened leather, also known as courbouilli, meets all of those requirements. In this essay, I will describe how to make several pieces of armor out of hardened leather: a bazuband (a medieval Islamic forearm and elbow protector), a klibanion (Byzantine body armor), a gauntlet and a basket hilt. To start, you need some leather. The thickness of leather is defined in ounces per square foot.

Before you start making hardened leather armor, let me give you three warnings. The second warning is that wax can burn-which is why it is used to make candles. My final warning is to remind you that the bag that separates your inside from your outside is made of leather. $100 Genome. Han Cao's nanofluidic chip could cut DNA sequencing costs dramatically. Nanoscale sorting: A tiny nanofluidic chip is the key to BioNanomatrix’s effort to sequence a human genome for just $100. Bionanomatrix In the corner of the small lab is a locked door with a colorful sign taped to the front: "$100 Genome Room--Authorized Persons Only.

" BioNanomatrix, the startup that runs the lab, is pursuing what many believe to be the key to personalized medicine: sequencing technology so fast and cheap that an entire human genome can be read in eight hours for $100 or less. With the aid of such a powerful tool, medical treatment could be tailored to a patient's distinct genetic profile. Despite many experts' doubt that whole-genome sequencing could be done for $1,000, let alone a 10th that much, BioNanomatrix believes it can reach the $100 target in five years.

By Maria Popova If you can’t deliver the newspaper on your amphibious bicycle, you can always fax it. “If at first an idea is not absurd,” Albert Einstein famously said, “then there is no hope for it.” Sometimes, however, absurd is just absurd — yet, even so, it’s a fascinating slice of history’s collective direction of curiosity and experimental innovation.

Details Published Tuesday, 19 March 2013 08:46 The style and design for the Gel Button may be unconventional, but the purpose it serves will be influential for future designs. The key element is the anchor for the link covers the entire surface and shape of the button, without any link text interference or excess hover area. This easily allows styling different button declarations for transitions, font color and size.

The labels for the buttons may be considered unconventional. Instead of defining the text within the HTML document, the labels are created within the CSS :before pseudo-element using the content: declaration. Complaint DepartmentA lot of CSS buttons I have encountered share the same problems while hovering or selecting the button link.

Demo available here. Suicide (book) Suicide (French: Le Suicide) was a groundbreaking book in the field of sociology. Written by French sociologist Émile Durkheim and published in 1897 it was ostensibly a case study of suicide, a publication unique for its time that provided an example of what the sociological monograph should look like. Some argue that it is not a case study, which makes it unique among other scholarly work on the same subject. Durkheim concluded that: Durkheim defines suicide as follows: ...the term suicide is applied to all cases of death resulting directly or indirectly from a positive or negative act of the victim himself, which he knows will produce this result.

He also distinguished between four subtypes of suicide: Durkheim's study of suicide has been criticized as an example of the logical error termed the ecological fallacy.[10][11] Indeed, Durkheim's conclusions about individual behaviour (e.g. suicide) are based on aggregate statistics (the suicide rate among Protestants and Catholics). Late modernity. Late modernity (or liquid modernity) is the characterisation of today’s highly developed global societies as the continuation (or development) of modernity rather than as an element of the succeeding era known as postmodernity, or the postmodern. Introduced as ‘liquid’ modernity by the Polish-British sociologist Zygmunt Bauman, late modernity is marked by the global capitalist economies with their increasing privatisation of services and by the information revolution.[1] Late modernity vs. postmodernity[edit] Social theorists and sociologists such as Scott Lash, Ulrich Beck, Zygmunt Bauman and Anthony Giddens maintain (against postmodernists) that modernization continues into the contemporary era, which is thus better conceived as a radical state of late modernity.[2] On technological and social changes since the 1960s, the concept of "late modernity" proposes that contemporary societies are a clear continuation of modern institutional transitions and cultural developments.

Subjects[edit] Information society. An information society is a society where the creation, distribution, use, integration and manipulation of information is a significant economic, political, and cultural activity. The aim of the information society is to gain competitive advantage internationally, through using information technology (IT) in a creative and productive way. The knowledge economy is its economic counterpart, whereby wealth is created through the economic exploitation of understanding.

People who have the means to partake in this form of society are sometimes called digital citizens. This is one of many dozen labels that have been identified to suggest that humans are entering a new phase of society.[1] The markers of this rapid change may be technological, economic, occupational, spatial, cultural, or some combination of all of these.[2] Information society is seen as the successor to industrial society. Definition[edit] The growth of information in society[edit] Economic transition[edit] Critiques[edit] Fire Staff. First off, I should point out that firespinning is a dangerous activity.

You can painfully hit yourself in every single one of those squishy and easily-bruised bits that you never knew you had. You can trivially set long hair ablaze. You can set your clothes on fire. You can set your fuel dump on fire. It goes without saying that safety is your number one priority. Don't spin lit up if you're not very confident in your own abilities, don't spin alone, don't spin when it's raining and slippery underfoot and NEVER EVER use petrol as a fuel. Simply put, I cannot stress enough quite how much of a danger the inexperienced firespinner can be to themselves and those around them. That said, firespinning is a hell of a lot of fun.
