Points of fact:
1) He didn't hack any banks. He was working in a payment processing company that had monopoly in Iran.
2) The card numbers and pin numbers were kept in clear text in their internal systems
3) He did complain about it repeatedly to his bosses, who blew him off
4) He posted the pin numbers and account numbers to a blog. Pin numbers have some digits before and after; They are not quite usable in person. In order to use them online a second pin is required which was not posted.
5) the Payment processing center's license has been revoked, and all people are in panic trying to change their pin numbers. The only action all ATMs allow is pin change.

You need to write tests for your code so that testing can be fully automated, with the issuing of one command. If there are no ways to automate your testing, you need to write software that allows you to do that, and then use it. If it is useful enough, you can even sell that.

I am sure there are photos from that scene taken by foot-mobile element that got there. Showing your RPGs and stuff. I am waiting for it to show up. It won't.

I personally think the pilots/gunners were overeager and jumped into action way early. Like all other sting operations you'd see in your local TV show, it was better to establish intent from the people on the ground (Photographer and other people with AK-47) by just doing a fly-by and tempting them to take a shot at the helicopter. After they fire at the helicopters they would have been fair game. But shooting them before being fired upon is what caused this war to last longer than necessary.

The method to do this has been around for many years. It is called planting trees.
