That part of what is available from search engines such as Bing or Google ...

Not to mention that many manufacturers take their time when it comes to downloading the latest security patches. A news blog Android Authority ranked the fastest manufacturers in downloading system updates. Here are the results: LG - 78 days Motorola - 88 days HTC - 95 days S...

Using MemoryMappedBuffer to handle large file in Java
When handling large files, it will largely affect the process speed while using traditional FileInputStream, FileOutputStream or RandomAccessFile since they trigger lots of read and write operations. In Java NIO, a new way of handling large file is introduced which is to use MmeoryMappedBuffer to create memory mapped file. Memory-mapped I/O uses the filesystem to establish a virtual memory mapping from user space directly to the applicable filesystem pages. With a memory-mapped file, you can pre...

Smuggling data in pointers
While reading up on The ABA Problem I came across a fantastic hack. The ABA problem, in a nutshell, results from the inability to atomically access both a pointer and a "marked" bit at the same time (read the wikipedia page). One fun, but very hackish solution is to "smuggle" data in a pointer. Example:#include "stdio.h"void * smuggle(void * ptr, int value){ return (void *)( (long long)ptr | (value & 3) );}int recoverData(void * ptr){ return (long long)ptr &...

SSH Security and You - /bin/false is *not* security
Backstory While at RIT around 2004 or 2005, I discovered that a few important machines at the datacenter allowed all students, faculty, and staff to authenticate against them via ssh. Everyone's shells appear to be set to /bin/false (or some derivative) on said machines, so the only thing you'll see after you authenticate is the login banner and your connection will close. I thought to myself, "Fine, no shell for me. I wonder if port forwarding works?" ...
