I'm worried in a few years LastPass could become a target, and now instead of someone having a password that 'could' be shared among your multiple accounts, you have now given the complete keys to the city by listing all of your logons grea

The whole upvote thing is like a freemarket concept to ideas. I guess if enough people decide to upvote something even though it isn't interesting (to them) then it will be more likely to reduce the quality of the front page if we all share

This epsilon-greedy [1] thing looks just like what my old boss use to tell me, 'trust but verify'. ohh.. I got so sick of those words, but at least now I have an algorithm for it. Just change the epsilon = 0.1 (10%) higher or lower dependin

This [1] is my hideous destruction of the graphic (sorry) to overlay world population on the Internet with respect to time, data from some worldstats site[2]. I propose that the proper size of a tech IPO should be normalized (and upper boun
