  * [[http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/ThePerilsofJavaSchools.html|The perils of JavaSchools]] -- interesting article about lowering requirements for degree in computer science which effects in CS-graduated students that do not understand pointers, recursion and other basics.
  * [[http://www.schneier.com/blog/archives/2008/02/cold_boot_attac.html|cold boot attack]] -- description of vulnerability of encrypted disks based on fact, that RAM memory content can be read after up to few minutes after power-off (yes - DRAM too!).
