I tried sending a message to their contact email PGP-encrypted to their public key, asking them for a PGP-signed confirmation. And it came back: 550 5.1.1 <contact@truecrypt.org>: Recipient address rejected: User unknown in local If t

I went through this hell. to get the PO box you need a residential address, you need ID with an address. I moved to a new state and was temporarily without residence or local ID, and as an experiment I tried to see how much I could accompli

I have had this happen repeatedly just because the driver wanted to roll through a stop light to do a right hand turn. One thing I don't think car drivers realize is how much of what bicyclists do out of self-preservation rather than c

After bicycling to and from work for a couple years, I settled on exactly this behavior. If you're doing it as stated, there's no risk because there's no car driver close enough to be reasonably confused about what you'r

That would have been an infinitely more interesting and appropriate article to read on HN. He seems to have initially achieved escape velocity from typical performer constraints by self-funding shows using his Reddit fanbase, is that right?

Ledger appears to be the "prescribed" way to do accounting natively in Bitcoin/other cryptocurrencies as well. I investigated this earlier this year. Quicken is out, no support and no way to add it in. And I found that GNUCas

Is that thing still alive? The open issues and unapplied pull requests are really piling up, and some of the public servers seem to be down.

It's not clear to me if he understands that the current court case is invoking federal supremacy of US treaties over California law/constitution, which seems to be a brand-new argument. He compares it to a private homeowners assoc

I have that same laptop. It uses the Nvidia optimus video architecture, I can't get that to work right, but I just use the Intel GPU and it works perfectly if you're not playing 3D games. The external displayport doesn't work

I consume Mr. Torvalds's G+ posts like I suppose a sports fan consumes sports news. I can't play at that level so I live vicariously through others.

As far as I'm concerned, Foscam cameras (the type in the story) are not securable. The firmware is complete trash. I have one and it is loaded with bugs. At least twice now I've gotten an urgent email telling me to update my firmw

I love OpenSMTPD. The only issue I had with it was, no filter API (just fixed, as of a month ago or so) and to get things like spam and antivirus filtering, or domainkeys, you have to proxy chain it. Also, the API changed very rapidly, and

They won't do it, people have asked on their forums. They're completely above the board and they want to keep it that way.

If your node can't be a guard unless it has sufficient uptime and hasn't shared a name with any other node for six months, where does that put you when you upgrade your OpenSSL and generate new keys? Now my relay has a different f

The problem with alcohol is that it is nigh-omnipresent and in many places it is so integrated into the culture that yes, you are automatically excluded if you don't drink. This is different from bowling night because you probably don&

I have already run into this at work. I have customers whose keys are publicly available, and others who should not be, and so I cannot effectively use keysigning internally to manage relationships. This is because I don't want to uplo

FWIW I agree, Playbook OS is pretty great on the usability front. I'm still steaming that they reneged on porting BB10 to it though, I only bought one on that promise.

How are you running BB10 on the Playbook? I didn't think it was ever officially released, just an old, busted preview.

"the whole philosophy of Free Software is based on the golden rule and doing social good" "Do no evil" clauses violate Freedom Zero: "The freedom to run the program, for any purpose." So I guess I dispute that

I am not surprised at all a study found that less women say they "love" programming. In my career I have worked with many women, and none of them would I consider less than well-rounded as a person. But I have met many, many males

Their actions seem perfectly reasonable considering they are a gay, married couple in California. And they are just announcing why they are breaking off their association with Mozilla. As far as I can tell they aren't making a "wi

After Jeri Ellsworth was fired from Valve, she had said that the "flat organization" of Valve masked an informal but very real hierarchy that was made up of elites and their cliques. I realize that flat organization is not the sam
