It seems like the media is trying to turn this into a bigger problem by quoting the 9100 foot minimum runway length for maximum takeoff weight and a 6100 foot runway. We can't tell if this is a real problem or not because we don't

I would think geolocation would only get better as more people go mobile and their IP address (wifi or 3G) gets pinned to gps coordinates using location aware apps. Think about how much info google, apple, and others can collect with this,

It is nice and all that Microsoft is pushing TLS 1.2 and AES-GCM, but they still don't have support in schannel (used by IIS and IE??) for ECDHE_RSA_AES_GCM cipher suites.

I don't know why people are getting so upset about this. Canada has had a very similar law for decades and it only really gets used when people want to legally duplicate architectural drawings and land surveys where the original person who

Ageism aside, the nice thing about "under X years" lists is that it keeps it fresh so that we don't end up with the same repetitive churn of names that we have all seen a million times. I didn't recognize any names on this list, which was r
