SSL doesn't prove identity. It just proves that the connection is encrypted. CA's try to add a layer of trust on top of this with their different levels of certification, but that doesn't guarantee identity.

This is not new. Various 'recognized' websites have redirect urls that are not protected. Once the redirect is complete the site it properly identified. If you have to be afraid of what links you click on you are running the wrong software.

Currently I use a BackupPC system on the LAN to do nightly backups of all my systems. My mac mini is backed up automatically via Time Machine as well, and I do a nightly backup of the MacBook with SuperDuper. Setup of rsyncd on the one wind

Or there may not. Apple likes control. iTunes gives them this and I don't think that will change soon. The way it ought to work is the devices should be sharable via Bonjour, just like any laptop or other smartphone, and you should be abl

Watch the mp4 ( http://collateralmurder.com/file/CollateralMurder.mp4.torren... ) or the 480p version. It is sitting on the ground as the gun camera sweeps back around and is clearly too long to be a telephoto lens.

I'd like to see the raw video before they edited it and added sub-titles. Thanks for the link -- this one is slightly clearer than the youtube 480p version.

On of the men clearly did have an RPG. The cameras were mistaken for AK-47's. One the left as they point out the 2nd cameraman note the long tube that one of the 'innocent civilians' is carrying and leaning on the ground. It also looks to m

Is that article really correct? Hulu has actively blocked itself from being run on devices, and Netflix doesn't have a Linux client (other than the Roku). Their apps page ( http://www.peopleoflava.com/television/scandinavia/apps/ ) makes no

I won't downvote, but I will disagree. Anyone programming in C++ needs to know C first. The same goes for ObjC (which in my opinion is superior to C++). Build on a solid foundation before jumping for the shiny looking brass ring of object a

Shannon and Gallagher's research is extremely important to wireless communications, without them we would still be talking using wires. A CRC checksum can only tell you when some bits flipped while in transmission -- these codes can tell yo

Take a look at alien for converting the rpm, or rpm2cpio for extracting the tar.gz inside it.

I wonder how performance compares to VMWare? The last time I tried OSX in a VMWare session it was so slow that it was useless.

Here is how strftime on OSX defines it: %G is replaced by a year as a decimal number with century. This year is the one that contains the greater part of the week (Monday as the first day of the week).

I wonder how much they would be making from Google Ads? They're generally targeted at the content for the page, the reader is obviously already interested in the subject, seems like a win-win to me.

Excellent points. I have found myself making some of these mistakes (ie. whitespace changes mixed with other changes) and do feel bad about them later. I'm going to post a link to this at the top of our project's Trac page to remind everyon

You are never going to be able to license software developers as a whole. Maybe some small subset, but the barriers to entry are just too low for a widespread licensing system to be imposed. Software is too fluid for some standards body to
