  • So, I guess you think it's wacky for me to be against a publisher who post-copyrights technical books, which people tend to want to be up-to-date, and a publisher of a book that "Rather than simply describing the vulnerabilities and their exploits theoretically or showing you how to use pre-existing tools to exploit the vulnerabilities...provides the nuts & bolts you need to learn how to program your own exploit code." At least you linked to my post, but I'm wondering exactly what you disagree with abou

    • You shouldn't have said Benchmark.pm "sux" if it doesn't...

      It's obvious (to me, anyway) from the slide that he's implying that saying "Benchmark sux" means that it actually sucks in the same way that saying CPANTS "measures kwalitee" means that it actually measures quality. So just saying that "Benchmark sux" is taking the slide out of context.

      • I saw that kwalitee analogy in the slide, but...well, if I could find a link to get to the top post I would look at the slide again, but this forum software sucks. I though the kwalitee thing was just explaining that quality is to kwalitee as sucks is to sux.
