A positive spin on this idiotic story, nicely done. Activism need not be violent nor do people need to be yelled at or talked down to. I still firmly believe that any TSA employee who doesn't want to be a part of this should refuse to, just

I'd upvote you twice if I could. I actually audibly groaned when I saw who the author was. Didn't even read the article, I knew it was going to be full of crap. I can't believe I graced him with a pageview. Ugh.

It's amazing how much of this is alleviated by something like 1Password or LastPass which I currently use. It'll generate a strong random password for me and remember it so I don't have to write it down. Changing passwords is just as easy.

I'm putting in my vote for Learn C the hard way. If I need to buy this book to support that, I will.

See, this is where you've blown your cover and have shown yourself as a troll. What you're saying is that hijackers can only be passengers and therefore these security measures are good and getting better. There are so many loopholes as yet

This is one of the sources of the appeal of Balkans for "foreigners" and one of the sources of frustration and despair for the Balkan people themselves. We never dealt with these issues in any way whatsoever. As is the cultural norm of all

Well, that's because bank and medical software usually falls under the "enterprise" umbrella. So, while you may be right that a lot of enterprise software is terrible, there are projects in said enterprises that work great and for which peo

If it's not enforceable, why the hell is it granted? That's total bullshit, seriously.

The most disappointing thing about this post is the fact that we're supposed to be preaching "use the best tool for the job" to the young ones. And here is someone that anyone interested in database technologies has heard about and is regar

Hmm, good article, but I think it does more to expose Microsoft's inability or unwillingness to integrate F# into the .Net platform the way C# is. He had to create a C# web project, as Visual Studio doesn't support that for F#. He had to cr

I wonder if this is the full transcript. Assange comes off as a real douche here. Sure, he's concerned about the leak to Newsweek, but he also completely and totally disregards questions and comments from the other Domscheit-Berg. If this i

And any grey suit that deals with the web knows about YellowPages.com which is a Rails site, as is newyorkjets.com. Google is a compelling argument, no doubt, but if the biz dudes are open to switching from a "traditional" language/framewor

Business continuity applies only if we're talking about Java vs Ruby/Python/etc. If the choice is between Ruby and Python and Clojure and any of the "esoteric" languages as far as enterprises are concerned, that's a red herring.

That's what I feel. Not only do they have an impossible deadline to hit right now, but the deadline they did hit was probably impossible as well. They may have spent most of the summer architecting this thing and figuring out things like "s

I'm sorry, but I don't agree. There is no reason why my customers need to know in what language the solution is developed in. Besides, Ruby powers many highly visible websites and web apps. If I'd be losing a sale because I develop in Ruby

As I mentioned to you on Twitter, I'd love to see a demonstration of some common sites as they're being read by a screen reader. If you can include examples of good ones AND bad ones, that'd be great. I think that a lot of web devs will fee

Not necessarily and I think it's one of those phrases open to interpretation. IMO, second system effect is doing everything you've done bigger and better while fixing the problems in the first system. It wasn't tied to the elegance of the f

I might be coming off as naive here, but the minute I saw this: "searching for a business model", I got my skepticism on. Why is this startup searching for a business model? Shouldn't you start with that and build your company around it? Ag

The thing is that they had a hard upper limit on how many clients connected and they wouldn't allow any more past that limit. That kinda makes it less impressive, IMO.

Cool podcast. I'm liking this trend of publishing content aimed a non-newbie programmers. This is going into my RSS feeds.

Full disclosure: I love MongoDB and use it in a few projects. Having said that, I must ask. Do the "unchecked" writes, configurable fsyncs and multi-node writes exist in the currently stable version of MongoDB or are these features still in
