KF, If you found this string in a piece of computer code (where it, on analysis, didn’t seem to do anything functional) could you tell which bit is my name and which is garbage:
010223040dff02010001deadbeefff01070 d0d1a01070303010105030f040e03ff040 a0effeffdfeebaeddff003010010703030 f040e00f040e00f040e00f040e00f040e0 0223040dff0201000101070d0d1a010703
03011a0dff0201070d0d1a01070303010d
ff02
Please tell me which one is which – and remember, designers sometimes fill spare memory with garbage to confound attempts at back engineering so arguing that you wouldn’t find garbage in a designed artifact is a non starter.
