    httping

    Httping is like ‘ping‘ but for http-requests.
    Give it an url, and it’ll show you how long it takes to connect, send a request and retrieve the reply (only the headers). Be aware that the transmission across the network also takes time! So it measures the latency of the webserver + network.
    It supports, of course, IPv6.

    Linux bug leaves USA Today, other top sites vulnerable to serious hijacking attacks

    The vulnerability resides in the design and implementation of RFC 5961, a relatively new Internet standard that’s intended to prevent certain classes of hacking attacks. In fact, the protocol is designed in a way that it can easily open Internet users to so-called blind off-path attacks, in which hackers anywhere on the Internet can detect when any two parties are communicating over an active transmission control protocol connection.

    The 2016 edition of GUADEC will happen in Karlsruhe, Germany from August 12 — 14 for the core conference days. Come early or stay after for workshops on August 11 **andBoFs and hackfests from August 15 — 17**. All conference events and workshops will be held at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology located in the heart of the city. We would like to thank our sponsors for making the event happen.

    This will be quite varied work and we expect you to be part of a team which will be looking at anything from driver bugs, battery life issues, implementing new stacks, biometric login and enabling existing features in the kernel or in low level libraries in the user interface.

    After discussing recent hardware gadget purchases, the guys jump into the defense of Java. Mike’s ready to justify his love, for Java. At least for some usecases.

    Plus a little dev world hoopla, your feedback, and more!

    Since the iPad Air uses the same A7 silicon as the iPhone 5s, it also uses the same on-die GPU as the 5s: IMG’s PowerVR G6430. This is a 4-cluster configuration of IMG’s latest graphics hardware, running at some relatively high frequency.

    Plus is the Microsoft Surface an ideal platform for independent developers, or is it just too far behind the iPad to matter? We discuss that, Google’s App Engine outage, and much more!

    Today kicked off the first day of the Consumer Electronics Show in beautiful Las Vegas! And while a hundred different gadgets are showing up, the Tablet Cavalcade really took center stage.

    Tune in to hear some of Chris & Jeremy’s favorite gadgets that surfaced today, and the impact they could have on the entire future of mankind! And maybe martians, too!

    Show Feeds:

    Best of Picks – DAY 1:

    Vizio Tablet
    The device has an IR blaster built in to the top, and it can function as a universal remote.

    T-Mobile
    Not much specific to this gadget to talk about, but the article includes a bunch of videos of Android 3.0 (aka Honeycomb) in action.

    Motorola XOOM
    Chris thinks that this is THE tablet to watch in the coming months, as the top competitor with the infamous iPad.
    GREAT specs, but no price point listed.  Assuming it’ll be pricey, though.

    Motorola Atrix
    This nifty gadget is pretty much a phone that comes with a netbook-type peripheral that converts the entire phone into a laptop-style interface!

    Samsung DualView
    A second LCD on the FRONT of the camera!  GENIUS!
    Could this be the end of duck-lips and dirty mirror shots?  Or will this create a renaissance in the world of half-naked teenagers sending dirty pics to one another?

    Next Gen MS Surface
    Finally eliminating the cameras and bulky under-carriage, the Surface has lifted itself up into the current generation of touch technology!
    Especially impressive is the “Pixel Sense” technology that they use inside their screen that, “Turns every pixel into a camera” making the unit able to read words and sense all ten (or twenty!) input points separately.
