Bank customer data sold on eBay

// August 27th, 2008 // 2 Comments » // Security

Walpurgiss tips a BBC News story about a man in Oxford who paid $140 for a computer on eBay, and was shocked to find on it bank records of several million customers of the Royal Bank of Scotland, its subsidiary Natwest, and one other bank.

“Mr. Chapman said anyone with a basic knowledge of computer software would have been able to find the data fairly simply. ‘The information was in back-up CDs and in ISO files so it would have been possibly quite easy to find…,’ he said.”

PS: related joke.

Man: “Look, I found eight million customer records on here!”

Bank tech: “That’s weird, we always stored ten million records in those databases…”

Man: “Huh, no idea what happened to those other two million.”

the Dining Philosophers puzzle

// August 26th, 2008 // No Comments » // IT

Five philosophers sit around a circular table. In front of each philosopher is a large plate of rice. The philosophers alternate their time between eating and thinking. There is one chopstick between each philosopher, to their immediate right and left. In order to eat, a given philosopher needs to use both chopsticks. How can you ensure all the philosophers can eat reliably without starving to death?

Dell-iin Eee zagvariin subnotebook Ubuntu-tei zaragdah gene

// August 20th, 2008 // 1 Comment » // Linux (Don't fear the penguins), broadcasting :D

Dell’s much-anticipated subnotebook product, which could be available to consumers by the end of the week, will be offered with Ubuntu 8.04 preinstalled. The little laptop is called the Inspiron 910 and it could displace the venerable Asus Eee PC as the dominant Linux-based notebook.

The diminutive Dell was first spotted at the All Things D event in May. There has been much speculation about what software platform will ship with the device when it finally hits the market. Our sources told us that Linux would be available as an option, and this was confirmed this morning when Gizmodo published detailed specifications which show that buyers will be able to choose between Ubuntu 8.04 and Windows XP.
