  2. Why the password "this is fun" is 10 times more secure than "J4fS!2"

    Security companies and IT people constantly tells us that we should use complex and difficult passwords. This is bad advice, because you can actually make usable, easy to remember and highly secure passwords. In fact, usable passwords are often far better than complex ones.

  9. Sony offers hacker a job. Hacker turns them down because of geoHot It’s not very often that a company the size of Sony reaches out to offer up a plum job to someone who better known as a hacker but such is the case with Koushik Dutta, a well respected Android hacker. It’s not very often that when someone is offered a plum job with a company like Sony that they turn it down because of the way the company is treating another person but such is the case with Dutta in light of Sony’s treatment of fellow hacker geoHot. But apparently this is indeed the case as evidence by the image of an email exchange between Dutta and Sarah McRae a headhunter for Sony. In the exchange we can see where McRae makes Dutta an offer of a software engineer position within Sony’s R&D division and this is followed by Dutta turning down the offer specifically because of the way that Sony has been treating George Hotz, famous for hacking Sony’s PS3. Who says there isn’t solidarity among hackers. Way to go Koushik. via Geekosystem

  10. Z-410: How ZFS is slowly making its way to Mac OS X

    A commercial ZFS solution is (still) coming to Mac OS X, thanks to former Apple filesystem and OS engineer Don Brady (who previously worked on the abandoned internal Apple project to port ZFS). Brady and his company, Ten’s Complement, just launched a limited private beta in hopes to have the software polished and ready for a summer launch this year.

    Ars spoke with Brady, who has a long history engineering filesystems for Mac OS and Mac OS X, to find out a little about his previous work with ZFS at Apple, and what Mac users can expect to gain from Ten’s Complement’s port of ZFS.
