Java zero-day exploit goes mainstream, 100+ sites serve malware
Blackhole exploit toolkit adds attack code that leverages unpatched bugs
Computerworld – Attackers using two recently-uncovered Java unpatched vulnerabilities, or “zero-days,” have quickly expanded their reach by going mainstream, security experts said today.
And on Tuesday, Mozilla, maker of Firefox, joined the chorus of advice that users should disable the current version of Oracle’s Java. The company is also ready to automatically block the plug-in from running in its browser, although it has not yet pulled the trigger.
The exploit’s breakout followed the addition of attack code to the notorious Blackhole exploit toolkit.
Multiple security firms, including FireEye and Websense, said late Tuesday that the Java exploit had been added to Blackhole, a popular hacker’s tool that bundles numerous exploits and tries each in turn until it finds one that will work against a personal computer.

Some Pics with Quotes
What happens to our brains when we exercise and how it makes us happier
“Yes, yes, I know all about it, that’s the thing with the endorphins, that makes you feel good and why we should exercise and stuff, right?” is what I can hear myself say to someone bringing this up. I would pick up things here and there, yet really digging into the connection of exercise and how it effects us has never been something I’ve done.
Inspired by a recent post from Joel on what makes us happy I’ve set out to uncover the connection between our feeling of happiness and exercising regularly.
What triggers happiness in our brain when we exercise?
Most of us are aware of what happens to the body when we exercise. We build more muscle or more stamina. We feel how daily activities like climbing stairs becomes easier if we exercise regularly. When it comes to our brain and mood though, the connection isn’t so clear.
The line around our “endorphins are released” is more something I throw around to sound smart, without really knowing what it means. Here is what actually happens:

Java – StringBuilder
StringBuilder Nasıl Kullanılır Bilmiyorsanız
Şu kötü alışkanlığınızı bırakın.. Her şeye String kullanmayın. Ekleme çıkarma işlemlerini çok daha verimli şekilde yapabilirsiniz.
Sahne 1: Normal coder… String objesini kullanıyor.
String s=”Merhaba”;
s=s+” Yabancı”;
System.out.println(s);
Tamam, böyleyken istediğiniz şeyi yapar. Ama arkadaş, biraz farklı düşünelim, performansı yüksek bir kod yazalım.
Sahne 2:
StringBuilder sb= new StringBuilder(“Merhaba”);
sb.append(” Yabancı”);
System.out.println(sb);
Bu kadar… Siz yine “Merhaba Yabancı”nızı aldınız ama çok daha verimli bir şekilde…
Stringler iyidir. Kullanılabilir ama StringBuilder her şeyi çok daha kolaylaştırabilir. En altta bununla alakalı bir örnek kod göreceksiniz.

Rejection
I was at the pool, waiting to dive, behind maybe 6 or 7 others, all younger than me, mostly female.
A young guy, maybe 16, steps up to the diving board. In my mind his name is Alex. Alex is a cool looking kid; slim, slightly tanned, trendy white boardshorts, scruffy blond surfer hair. Slightly goofy maybe, as most 16 year olds are, but cool. Continue reading “Rejection”
My Theme
My Theme!
I don’t know how many of you have been looking for something on this website. However, I wondered if you liked my theme. So I wanted to ask a question,(to get some suggestions) I thought this theme is somehow pretty but it also has some negative features. (Text area is too small. My photos couldn’t be in the same row. :S ) I had to make them small all the time.
PS. My theme is Spectrum.
If you suggest a better theme, I’d be grateful, and appreciate.

In other words,
Heeeeeeeeeeelp! Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp!
Please, show me a way, show me the light of wisdom.
I need you. Help me to find a better way to live in virtual universe.

53 bin kelimelik kitabı DNA’ya kaydettiler
İnsan belleği veri kaydı yapılan bir depolama aracı olabilir….
Harvard Üniversitesi Wyss Enstitüsü’nden George Church ve ekibi 53 bin kelime 11 fotoğraf ve bir bilgisayar programı içeren kitabı sentezleme yoluyla DNA içine aktardı.
Yapılan bu deneyin bilim tarihinde DNA içine yapılan en büyük veri kaydı olduğu belirtildi.Geçtiğimiz günlerde akademik “Science” dergisinde yaptıkları araştırmanın sonuçları yayınlanan Church, gerçekleştirdikleri deneyin amacının gittikçe artan dijital veri depolama ihtiyacını gidermek olduğunu söylüyor. Veri depolamada gün geçtikçe artan alan ihtiyacının DNA ile karşılanabileceği vurgulanırken, saklanan verilerin binlerce yıl korunabiliyor olması ise DNA üzerine depolamanın en büyük avantajı olarak vurgulanıyor. Uzun süre dayanabilmesinin yanında DNA’nın 1 gramına karşılık bin DVD’ye denk gelen kompakt yapısı da veri depolama DNA’yı özel bir konuma getiriyor.
Bugünün pahalı ve pratikliten uzak teknolojileri ile bir ilki başaran bilim adamları 5-10 yıl sonra DNA’ya veri kopyalamanın çok daha pratik ve ucuz bir hal alacağını ve bugün kullandığımız teknolojilerin yerini almaya başlayacağını belirtiyor.

Latest Google Play Store 3.8.16
Google is currently pushing out a quick follow-up update (v3.8.16) to the new Play Store (v3.8.15) that rolled out a couple of days ago. 3.8.15 brought significant under-the-hood changes, such as support for gift card redemption and wishlists, but 3.8.16 seems to be just a minor bug fixer. I have absolutely no clue right now what problems it resolves, and decoding the apk to compare with the previous version didn’t really shine a light in any helpful way. A cursory run through the usual wishlist (no, not that wishlist) suspects produced no results.
Regardless, it doesn’t hurt to be running the latest and greatest version of something as important as the Play Store, so hit up the download mirrors below (we verified them as legitimate and signed by Google).
