Hacking Humans at the Card Table. Magic has been around for millennia--the art being probably as old as humanity itself. Throughout the span of time and cultures, magic has manifested itself in many forms, and its roots run deep. Before magic was relegated to the domains of amusement and recreation, it was the medium of the priests, the shamans, the wise men (and women), the sages, and the magi of old. These practitioners of legerdemain, these prestidigitators, were among the first social engineers, the first hackers of humanity. [kuro5hin.org] 9:54:17 PM ![]() |

The Cause of RSI. An intriguing, but unresearched, speculation as to the cause of Repetitive Strain Injury. Could it be the light action and short travel of modern keyboards and mice that cause the trouble? Dysponetic activity (inappropriate and misdirected as well as unconscious muscle bracing) is implicated in the aetiology of RSI. How much of this is due to the need to support the weight and muscle tone of one's fingers to avoid inadvertent key presses? [kuro5hin.org] 9:52:41 PM ![]() |
