I don't know about you, but I can't convert epoch time in my head and I don't know anyone who can. What's benefit is there to posting epoch time instead of in ISO 8601 format?

I highly doubt Apple keeps their master keys anywhere near a public facing web server.

Why should we be forced to download third party applications/plugins in order to read a news post without any unnecessary interruptions?

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5276648 Long story short it was alleged there was child pornography hosted on imgur. Namecheap took it upon themselves to "Block the domain for abuse" because the owner of the

After Namecheap shut down imgur by changing their nameservers without the owners consent, I'm wary to give them another shot.

Unless you live in an area where there's an enormous mesh WiFi network with that covers the entire city and handles AP roaming without dropping a connection then WiFi is not an acceptable substitute to cellular.

While 0-day vulnerabilities will always get the best of some companies, there are some security breaches that are just due to plain negligence of the company. I believe I recall Sony getting hacked, and tons of plain-text credit card number

You probably want to use urandom instead of random. /dev/random will block if the entropy pool runs out whereas /dev/urandom will not.

Only 28 and 29 didn't have to do with Aaron. I missed HN the day the news broke. Perhaps it was just as bad. Either way, I disagree that we should stop taking about it. Silencing something is not a good way to address it.

Did you see the HN front page when Aaron Swartz killed himself? The NSA stories are a drop in the ocean compared to the endless Aaron Swartz posts. It looked like this[0]. [0] http://i.imgur.com/QgJo6CU.png

I was under the impression that they used beam splitters to get a copy of the data going over the fiber. It is my understanding that they can only receive data this way, not send it.

I wasn't implying the domain was actually a pornographic site. I was pointing it out so the site owner could potentially get it resolved.

Just a heads up, but our Barracuda Web Filter blocked this domain due to Pornography.

That's the point. That's exactly what the form is having you do.

This has nothing to do with cPanel. It's about a third party plugin created by someone with no affiliation to cPanel who wrote bad code and refused to fix it.

This only will not work if your page is loaded over HTTPS and your assets are done over HTTP. If your site and all of the linked/embedded assets are HTTPS, it will work as intended.

Accessing the Applications section also prompted for a password when I tried over the weekend. Either there was more than just the Public Keys that required re-authentication or this was indeed around for longer than just a couple minutes.

I can't see myself using Coinbase after hearing they had directory indexing on the directory with all the payment confirmations. Others may see past this, but for me it's an unforgivable mistake on their part.

A domain name is much more than storing an entry in a database. The root name servers are not cheap to operate. Domain names can also have glue records which mean more records in the root name server. Also the more expensive a domain name i

Search Google for $0.50 domains and you can get .com/org/net domains for a $0.50USD for the first year from companies like Register or Network Solutions. The downside is you have to be very careful when you sign up as to not forget to remov

I had to do a chargeback to get my money back from Dreamhost. They refused to refund me after I asked for a refund less than 2 hours after signing up. I would never recommend Dreamhost to anyone.

Why would they need/want f.co? They already own fb.me. f.co is one letter shorter and isn't as easily identifiable as fb.me.

Stating us-east-1a means nothing, since your us-east-1a is someone else's us-east-1d. They're not the same across AWS accounts.

history shows the full .bash_history, but by default HISTFILESIZE is 500 so it only stores 500 entries.

I'm not the OP, but I have my own personal blog and a lot of side projects I make $0 money on (I don't use ads). I use Analytics (Google Analytics, Woopra, GoSquared, and ChartBeat (although never at the same time, that would be ridiculous)
