Caring about it and doing something about it are two different things. There is a huge disconnect between theory and practice. In theory feminism concerns itself with the effects of "patriarchy" on both men and women. In practice,

Because it's not arbitrary. I didn't get punched in the guts when I was a kid because I was wearing tight pants driving a pennyfarthing. I was punched in the guts because I was a "nerd" which meant "not cool."

I can't help but feel that a large portion of the current "geek culture" is a collection of appropriations from a different group, selected for "authenticity", similar to criticisms of the wider hipster culture. I w

Look at the mysql schema of a Drupal system. Either you support arbitrary fields at the database level, or you write a ton of extra code (which will have bugs) and piles of support tables on top of your relational database. It's a wast

The bug in question was the interaction between the GPF cryptostick and 4096-bit RSA keys. You could create them, put them on the stick, but trying to verify signatures had a bug. I believe it's fixed I can confirm the German Privacy F

I don't even know if common linux distributions even support the right combination of drivers and gnupg to even support 4096-bit RSA keys. I tried this a couple of times over the last two years or so, and there was always some bug, or

Tora looks similar to this, it's more of a workalike to TOAD for Oracle. I like it a lot because it's less clunky than pgadmin. But it still has a few bugs.
