Suggestions on easy low maintenance blogging platforms? I have been wanting to do my own blog on security for some time, even got a domain. I don't really want to do Wordpress, it makes me sad and I'd rather have someone else host.
I prefer paying for hosting, so I know that "I'm not the product".
I agree with the other posters so far: Static generators are the way to go today. Jekyll + Github Pages is common but I don't like it (I don't "trust" the free nature of Github now that its run by Microsoft. I wanna pay for the service.). Jekyll is a fine program, but the Ruby warts means that its a bit difficult to setup unless you have all your Gems lined up.
Hugo's installation process was far easier and practically does the same thing as Jekyll. Since its easier to setup and use Hugo, I prefer using that. But you really can't go wrong with either.
Its great for static sites and shared hosting in general. The payment options are very clean and clear, and its very cheap. A simple SFTP or RSYNC to transfer your Hugo or Jekyll generated files over, and you're set. Simple if you know how to use command-line stuff.
NFS has a very simple "Lets Encrypt" based command line program to quickly add HTTPS encryption to your site.

Other popular options for static-hosting are Amazon's S3 and Cloudflare. And of course the free options: Github pages, and Neocities.
Unless you really need dynamic content, just go with static pages. There's a lot of blog generators. (https://www.staticgen.com/) Then you upload the result wherever you want: shared hosting, S3, gcp, GitHub, ...
No it is not. It is my browser, coming into my house. Prove to me you are not doing something creepy with the data, being annoying, and providing value back in your ads and I will decide to quit blocking you.
This is my big question too. It's pretty standard marketing: if your new product isn't impressively better than the old one on commonly used benchmarks, you invent a new benchmark where your new product is impressively better. I wonder how much of the "look how much better these cards are at ray-tracing!" actually reflects real-world improvements users will see, and how much is there to create a benchmark that shows a big improvement over existing GPUs.
I don't think it's that bad. The RTX is a whole new architecture and will have significantly more cores. The bigger question is probably just how the performance is compared to the price and power consumption.
For fp16, int8 and int4, the RTX blows the GTX out of the water. For fp32 it's a tiny increase. The memory bandwidth is about 40% higher as well. You'll always find people complaining about each release, but overall I think this is a solid card.
What is a reasonable time to see this in my next phone? 2020? Looks really cool, with the screen being the biggest battery hog I hope to see a bump in battery lasting through the day (otherwise we get thinner phones).
It won't be on your phone by 2020. It is not clear whether it will ever be on your phone. The iphone 8 has about 3 million subpixels which will all have to be individually cut, tested and assembled on a display for a microled to work.
Or, alternatively, the display can be made from a whole wafer, which will cost about a thousand dollars for the raw materials and perhaps $5k for the finished display.
I know technology tends to advance a lot, but the advances required for microled to work seem really far fetched. Also, display technology does not advance as quickly as digital computation technology. Remember we have been talking about OLEDs for at least 20 years now and they are only now becoming mainstream.
This technology, if it ever works, will be for very small devices where brightness is very important but resolution is not that important. So smart glasses and smart watches. Even for those applications it is not at all certain that they will be able to bring the cost down sufficiently.
Any chances you would be willing to share some of the online resources you use for this? I have recently been getting into mobile security development professionally.
I don't use online resources. I mostly used a combination of dex2jar and apktool. Some custom coding to automate the process. When I'm doing this on iOS I use Hopper.
