iOS 7 is requiring lots of work from app developers, to both fix what ios 7 broke in their app and to make their UIs fit in with the new design language apple is pushing. (To be fair, there are new APIs some apps are benefiting from). Devel

"Cells phones are tracking devices" used to be how cliche, wild-eyed conspiracy theorists were identified. Glad to see the mainstream (bloomberg and others in general, not Schneier) catching up.

Actually I take it back! Ms. isn't short for "Miss". Miss (no period) used to be the default title for a woman, but now it's Ms. (pronounced as you say), and like Mrs. & Miss, derives from Mistress. Good reading: ht

Veto? Pff. The best part of being prez is pardoning your friends! (And in Clinton's case, brother). Here's starting at Johnson, great reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_people_pardoned_or_gran...

About a year after 9/11, I was taking pictures of a protestant church in suburban New York as part of a loan assessment. The cops showed up and told us someone had reported us as suspicious. He mentioned something about a mosque being

You're right, with one clarification: Miss. isn't an abbreviation, it's the full word. Ms. is short for Miss but is used for professional communication nonetheless. [Source: I transcribed documents intended for lawyers]

We've had anonymous remailers for about a decade. Maybe people will start caring. Bitmessage is up and coming, but needs a lot more development. You could use OTR with servers for offline support and contact management (jabber, etc), b

Like all the other iOS apps, it had to remove ac3 support. Oplayer has been my favorite, since it's slowly implementing all the esoteric features I use vlc for, including subtitle font size adjustment, etc (though it's not all the

Shortcuts are the reason I haven't switched off VLC: a to change aspect ratio on poorly encoding. c to change crop. e to advance one frame. s to change subtitle stream, l for audio stream.

Works both ways no? It's not that F needs the comment -- a comfortable room temp is ~75, and no one will think "but it might be 100 in here!"

I had high hopes for Xamarin. The appeal of it was strong: I could program in a functional language (F#) with libraries (.NET) and share my work with friends on Mac, Windows, Linux, and Mobile. Unfortunately nothing worked. I was blocked at

No one is missing the point; we're all just quickly realizing that counting only in seconds isn't an improvement. Nonetheless, kudos to the author. Time keeping sucks.

"Is it good policy" is exactly the question. And that question isn't answered by checking their political ID card.

DragonflyBSD is impressive and is trying to improve on modern OSes (See HAMMER filesystem). I hope tc-play becomes crossplatform.

Alternatively, there's Whonix ( https://whonix.org/wiki/Main_Page ). More steps but potentially more secure. Major difference is that whonix runs in a VM (or two), is persisted (though you could use VM snapshots), a

Check out xnomad. It seems to me the closest imitation to Xmonad, and doesn't need messing with a config to get working (that is, comes with good default keycommands and limited layouts). It's not in Haskell, but the authors exper
