In Zool., gamete is most commonly used of the sexual cells of certain Protozoa, though also extended to the germ cells of higher forms. [ Webster 1913 Suppl.]

The binary code that is the payload for buffer overflow and format string attacks. Typically, an egg written in assembly and designed to enable remote access or escalate privileges from an ordinary user account to administrator level when it hatches. Also known as shellcode. The name comes from a particular buffer- overflow exploit that was co- written by a cracker named eggplant. The variable name ‘ egg’ was used to store the payload. The usage spread from people who saw and analyzed the code. Egg ( Heb. beytsah, " whiteness"). Eggs deserted ( Isa. 10: 14), of a bird ( Deut. 22: 6), an ostrich ( Job 39: 14), the cockatrice ( Isa. 59: 5). In Luke 11: 12, an egg is contrasted with a scorpion, which is said to be very like an egg in its appearance, so much so as to be with difficulty at times distinguished from it. In Job 6: 6 (" the white of an egg") the word for egg ( hallamuth') occurs nowhere else. It has been translated " purslain" ( R. V. marg.), and the whole phrase " purslain- broth", i. e., broth made of that herb, proverbial for its insipidity; and hence an insipid discourse. Job applies this expression to the speech of Eliphaz as being insipid and dull. But the common rendering, " the white of an egg", may be satisfactorily maintained. |
