  • I cant help but wonder when ever I see "source code leaked" – now here are a raft of patches, how much bad stuff is hiding in many progs #
  • it really strengthens the case for opensource if nothing else. Also if they can patch now that the leak has happened, why not before ? #
  • given that we have "promoted tweets", I am surprised that we dont have "promoted emails" in the free mail providers… #
  • Standing waiting for a taxi outside.my house, amazed at the amount of birdsong. Really beautiful and inspiring #
  • looking at the alleged 55k hacked twitter accounts http://t.co/QeN6oZba you can see they are fake from the password complexity #
  • you can tell real user accounts from the fakes from the total lack of complexity in the passwords. #cynical #
  • seems that #LHR is apparently not badly affected today by the strike… thankfully #
  • interesting comment on @SCmagazineUK story on Global Payments http://t.co/PRHsubxV worrying if true #

  • You dont always need a computer to lose records – HP loses hundreds of thousands of records on a microfiche http://t.co/IlcDy0xL #
  • Top tip, don't grab an electric fence in your hand when trying to steady a shot. Just because all the rest were off doesn't mean anything #
  • I will be talking about #byod policy and pitfalls tomorrow at wokefield park tomorrow as part of the Econique infosec conference. #
  • When did it become "De rigeur" for every hotel wifi to ask for a mobile number and email address? Thankfully they don't check… #
