We don't have the time to dig into all the different ways someone could measure time. Generally, we structure our lives around years, months, days, hours ... you know, the big ones. The easy ones. But time measurements can get as nitty gritty as you need them to. In Facebook's case, the company needed a unit of time that just wasn't there. So they invented an entirely new one.           Allow us to introduce you to the "flick," the new unit of time developed by a Facebook engineer. Chances are, you won't be measuring how long you've been on the treadmill or how long to cook your turkey in flicks. But for a select group, the new unit could become quite helpful. Initially created by Christopher Horvath in late 2016 and launched by Facebook Open Source in January 2018 , the flick is equal to precisely one 705,600,000th of a second. It's just a tad longer than a nanosecond, but still shorter than a microsecond. Finally , right? Like we said, u...

Only a single character can crash your iPhone and block access to the Messaging app in iOS as well as popular apps like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, Outlook for iOS, and Gmail. First  spotted.  by Italian Blog Mobile World, a potentially new severe bug affects not only iPhones but also a wide range of Apple devices, including iPads, Macs and even Watch OS devices running the latest versions of their operating software. Like previous 'text bomb' bug, the new flaw can easily be exploited by anyone, requiring users to send only a single character from Telugu—a native Indian language spoken by about 70 million people in the country. Once the recipient receives a simple message containing the symbol or typed that symbol into the text editor, the character immediately instigates crashes on iPhones, iPads, Macs, Apple Watches and Apple TVs running Apple's iOS Springboard. Apps that receive the text bomb tries to load the character, but fails and refuses to function pro...

A zero-day vulnerability has been discovered in the desktop version for end-to-end encrypted Telegram messaging app that was being exploited in the wild in order to spread malware that mines cryptocurrencies such as Monero and ZCash. The Telegram vulnerability was uncovered by security researcher Alexey Firsh from Kaspersky Lab last October and affects only the Windows client of Telegram messaging software. The flaw has actively been exploited in the wild since at least March 2017 by attackers who tricked victims into downloading malicious software onto their PCs that used their CPU power to mine cryptocurrencies or serve as a backdoor for attackers to remotely control the affected machine, according to a blogpost on Securelist. Here's How Telegram Vulnerability Works The vulnerability resides in the way Telegram Windows client handles the RLO (right-to-left override) Unicode character (U+202E), which is used for coding languages that are written from right...

Proxy servers are servers that takes the request from normal machines and IP's and forward there request of the page that are requested by normal machine to the Internet and when the internet sends gives response the page that is requested by the proxy server that response is send back to the normal machines and IP's . there are varieties and types of Proxy Servers some of them are as follows:-      Transparent Proxy – This type of proxy server identifies itself as a proxy server and also makes the original IP address available through the http headers.
