The guy who noticed a bug In the FB android app and the messenger.
What he noticed was that the pictures were being sent over the http protocol, and not https.
He actually emailed Facebook and they paid him a total of $2000.

Koding
A cloud-development platform for developers, where with every free sign-up, you get a virtual-machine, complete with root access, 2GB RAM and 1.2GB storage. You can view, manage and create files right in the browser. It even has a terminal emulator which too runs in the browser.
The VM is sort of pre-configured with NodeJS, PHP, Apache, MySQL e.t.c. and you can always install whatever packages you need. You can import personal projects from your disk, into the cloud, and you can also create new ones, using a few presets for a start. The _presets _here refers to _Bootstrap, AngularJS, WordPress _e.t.c. So the idea is that it would just create all the necessary files, and prevent you with like a template that you are free to edit to suit your needs.
The development-UI is fine too. You can edit code right in the browser, and view it in a browser app running inside the browser, rather like on W3schools.
The compass can point true north
But tells naught about the swamps and bushes and other obstacles that lie in the path. So what’s the point of knowing true North?
ChromeOS ported to Windows 8
Got the update?
Yes this is the latest version of Google Chrome running in Metro on Windows 8.1 preview. It’s like the whole of ChromeOS is being simulated in an app, (and that is the whole idea behind it.)
Strange yet smart move; let’s see if either this or the launchers can get people to use and actually get comfortable with the Chrome Apps environment..

LXQt: Qt port of LXDE
LXQt, the “next-gen”, upcoming desktop environment, is the product of the combined efforts of the LXDE and the Razor-Qt teams. The output is, in terms of visuals rather similar to KDE, so those who enjoy KDE but find it _highly-resource-consuming, _LXQt might be just the thing for them. Since I never liked KDE much, I might not like this one at all.
LXQt is to become the default environment in the upcoming releases of Lubuntu which is probably for the best since as much as I like LXDE, it’s too simple for a general consumer to find normal. A simple example could be the trouble they’d have to simply getting the Battery Indicator to work for them (It refreshes slow and all. ) I know it was a lame example but its one of the things that piss me off whenever I use LXDE.
Plus the JetBrains’ tools dont work on any environment other than GNOME or KDE, but they might on this one…
