The Witcher is such an iconic series by this point that it will take a lot of effort if Netflix is to keep the already sizeable audience the series boasts....

Although the new 9.7 inch iPad Pro is superior to the 2015 12 inch iteration in some regards, including better cameras and display, it appears the raw processor is not as identical as Apple implied in its presentation. Although both models have an A9X processor, the 9.7 inch version actually has half the RAM and a slightly-lower clock speed CPU (via @panzer). Whilst the big iPad Pro has 4 GB RAM, the 9....

This is the black-box approach to security testing, the methodology that people frequently request. Unfortunately, they’re usually unaware of its many drawbacks. In black-box, you don’t tell your security evaluators anything about how the system works. The goal of the methodology is to limit information in an attempt to replicate real-world conditions, but it is flawed. Download Ted’s free ebook, “How to secure your software faster and better.” A few weeks later, the king is murdered....
