If you sanitize input, it implies you're inserting the input into an execution environment. If possible, it's better to treat data as data. In the Javascript eval case, it's definitely possible; just access the data through a variable inste

What kind of environments contain bash in a different location than /bin/bash, and why is it done that way?

RequireJS manages load dependencies, not packages. It does not install and update them.

by Zr40 14y ago
Nope, RequireJS can load any kind of Javascript dependency, even if it doesn't use the AMD format. You can even specify dependencies for non-AMD scripts in the configuration object.[0] As for define(), there's only one AMD method signature:

While this has been in the news everywhere, Microsoft itself hasn't mentioned anything about this. In fact, they still use 'Metro' on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/windows/apps and their various Windows 8-related blogs.

Instead of only disabling Find my Mac, please make sure your backups are functional and enabled. That way, if your machine fails or gets wiped (whether it's by you, a thief or someone with your iCloud password), you can still recover everyt

On your primary machines, you should have at least some form of local backup. I'm using Time Machine with a network drive. If my primary machine fails or gets wiped (whether I did it myself or someone obtained my iCloud password), I can sti

But the third-generation iPad is just called that, 'iPad'. It's only referred to by Apple as 'new iPad' in contexts where its new features are described, or to distinguish it from the previous iPad, such as in the online store.

If you're interested in seeing what's happening, fire up Activity Monitor and hit Sample on the app when you see the beach ball. It records the call frames of all threads a couple of thousand times over a few seconds, so you can see what th

I believe it actually is a separate WebKit process per widget. Could you quantify the Dashboard memory usage? I'm using the Weather and Delivery Status widgets, and they're only using 16.7 MB and 28.9 MB. This is on Mountain Lion. edit: mos

Unused memory is wasted memory. As a user, you shouldn't care about memory usage if there's plenty available. It's far more interesting to see what happens in a low-memory situation.

Nothing is forcing you to use Metro. In fact, only apps that have an UI designed specifically for Metro will use the Metro environment. Everything else will run in windows outside of Metro, just like they do in Windows 7. Only the new start

Are you sure about that? Apple lists exactly that as one of the features of Mountain Lion: Go full screen on any display If you have a secondary display connected to your Mac, you can take an app full screen on either display. Drag the wi

iPad versions of apps aren't simply about scaling the UI. Take Twitter on Android tablets[0] for example, it's clear that merely enlarging the UI elements doesn't automatically result in an awesome UI on tablets. Similarly, an UI design tha

Apple still ships Java; it's just not installed by default. When you run a Java app without having Java installed, you get a prompt to automatically download and install Java.

Actually, this behavior you're referring to is a combination of trying to access a directory (to which a missing trailing slash is automatically appended) and the use of default pages (for Apache, that's the DirectoryIndex directive). Trail

No, technical specs tell you what a device might be capable of. Only the software defines what computer-like devices can actually do.

Safari on Mac and Chrome on any OS can display PDF inside the browser without any external dependencies. Still, this link is a good alternative for users of other browsers.

True, but those APIs were never available without those kinds of restrictions.

Re. 1 and 2, what exactly are Apple and Microsoft doing to their desktop OS to accomplish that? I'm not seeing any evidence of that happening at all.

Most current Macs have a Thunderbolt port, which is quite fast. I don't doubt that USB 3 ports will start to appear in the coming years, too.

I may or may not agree with what they're doing, but the current tax rules make it possible to do so. You can't really blame a company for playing by the rules.

They're working fine for me in Chrome 18 and Webkit nightly, though not in Safari 5.1.5.
