Laws make things legal or illegal. They don't make things right or wrong. The Declaration of Independence was illegal, and the men who signed it were wanted dead or alive, but it was the right thing to do.

Hello HN, I wrote FreeOTP about a year ago. With the recent privacy concerns in the news, I wanted to share it with others and get feedback and suggestions. An acquaintance of mine, who is a professor of math at Virginia Tech and who teache

Most American's don't care. They are too busy on Facebook or playing games on their iphone/android, taking pictures of themselves in the bathroom, etc. The Native Americans gave their land away for beads. Modern Americans giv

This is not uncommon in crypto, Truecrypt devs are anonymous as well: "The developers of TrueCrypt have been only anonymously referred to on the site as “The TrueCrypt Foundation” since 2010,[44] though there are potentially good reasons re

I'm not sure about that. If management won't let you name the servers after characters in your favorite sci-fi movie, then that is an indication that names matter (ns1 for DNS rather than gandolf or papa_smurf or whatever) and that manageme

Many of these security Companies are like preachers. They need a devil so that they can sell their salvation. China seems to be the devil right now. In a few years, it'll be something or someone else.

RF is somewhat like magic. Crappy 802.11 devices can cause interference with radios and antennas. I have one computer system that I can't use in the same room with a HAM radio. It causes too much interference. When I shut it off, everything

The OpenBSD devs have been very critical of it. That may just be sour grapes, but they may have some valid criticisms as well.

I never mentioned closed source or open source in my comment. I mentioned "corporate" languages. Go is Google's just as much as .Net is Microsoft's.

I'm sorry, but the world does not need another company-controlled, corporate programming language. .Net (Microsoft), Java (Oracle) and now Go (google). All of these compilers or JIT interpreters are implemented in C or C++ (which are open l

I'm not an Apple fan. I have no Apple products. I have to agree with Apple on this. Hard drives fail. That's just going to happen. We, as customers, should have our files backed-up in the cloud or onto external hard drives. Failed drives ca

I read yesterday that more people in India have access to a cell phone than to a toilet or running water. I assume they are very poor since they have to poop outside on the street, but they do have cell phones.

Most "bullet-proof" vests only protect against relatively weak, slow, large handgun rounds (9mm, 40 cal, .44, etc.). High-power rifle rounds used for hunting (.223, .308, 30-06, etc.) would easily penetrate this material. I only mention thi

He/she is a great writer. Good advice too. Break big tasks down into small ones, practice and train for each small task and then when the big tests (or the challenges of life) come you'll be prepared. Learning how to study will help you lea
