2. How Ransomware Attack Works

Process

  1. Infection vector, by email/bug/RDP/Download
  2. Lateral Movement, try to move laterally to infect as many machines as possible
  3. Encryption: this is done silently, so users don’t notice until too late

1. Is Signature Really Useful

Several Purpose

  • Intent and consent
  • Verification
  • Deterrent to fraud
  • Historical precedence
  • Ritualistic role: make parties feel more bound to the terms

1.1. Digital

Electronic signature: just a image, can be easily forged

Digital signature: more secure, signer identity is verified using a certificate

2. Teeth Shape

Determined by genetics, evolution, function

  • Evolutionary factor
    • Canines: used as tearing food, display of aggression
    • As human evolved, jaw and teeth shape changed
      • Smaller jaw
      • Teeth became more adapted to a varied diet
  • Genetics: number, arrangement, and shape is coded in DNA
  • Function: incisors are designed for cutting and shearing; Canines are used for tearing and grasping;

2. How Freeze Dried Works

  1. Freezing: spread in a single layer, and rapidly frozen, forming small ice crystals
  2. Primary drying: placed in a vacuum chamber, the pressure is reduced, apply a little heat, cause the frozen water to sublime(升华), remove 95% of the water
  3. Secondary drying: more heat to break the molecular bindings and remove the bound water
  4. Packaging

2.1. Why Freeze Dried

  • Preserve most of the vitamins
  • Result in a porous structure, allow fruit to rehydrate when added to water
  • Flavor retention: minimal loss of flavor compounds
  • Long shelf life

3. Why is the Month Distribution Not Even

1. What Determine the Heat Conduct Speed

Determined by the movement and interaction of particles or quasiparticles

  1. Lattice Vibration (晶格震动)
    1. Well-ordered crystal structure and stronger bonding would generally have higher thermal conductivity
  2. In metal, free electrons are a major contributor, carrying heat
  3. Porosity, the effective path increase, lower thermal conductivity

2. How Teleconvertor Works

A set of lenses that magnifies the image. NO movement

Design consideration

  • Magnification: 1.4x, 1.7x, 2x, the greater, the more light loss
  • Light loss, 1.4x result in one-stop loss

Drawback

  • Some lens not compatible
  • Degrade the performance

1. Tidal

What: regular rise and fall of sea level caused primarily by the gravitational interactions between Earth and Moon, Sun

Force:

  • Gravitation

    • Moon pull on Earth, the strongest, result one bulge

    • Earth pull toward moon, result another bulge

    • Sun. weaker, but strong enough to influence

  • Centrifugal(离心力)

Pattern

  • Semi-diurnal: 半日潮, two high tide and two low tides with same height each lunar day (24hr 50 min)
    • happen in many location like UK
  • Diurnal: 日潮, one high tide and one low tide each lunar day
    • happen in the Gulf of Mexico
  • Mixed: two high and two low with different heights
