Although not directly related I’d like to see a modern guide to tokens and cookies. There are lots of choices and then on top of that the choice of storage location. I think OWASP recommend cookies rather than localStorage but it would be g

This is a shame. I got through to payment and I am presented with ‘Due to recent changes in United Kingdom's tax laws, we can only accept orders over $200 USD to the United Kingdom at this time.’ Wonder what recent tax law changes they

I should really buy something from jet pens. Not sure how how expensive they are for non-US international orders but I’ll have to check. It could potentially add quite a mark-up to a cheaper item such as the sampler packs someone else menti

Fiddler uses a certificate which you need to trust to intercept traffic. Enterprises also do this type of thing on a larger scale (see products from Bluecoat for e.g.) to monitor employees and for detecting exfiltration of data. Of course o

Actually TLS happens client and server side and protects data in transit whilst established. But that means over the network. If you want to protect the actual contents you should encrypt it within your application and not rely on the TLS l

TLS mitigates against someone evil on the network to some extent . It is possible to snoop inside TLS connections in a variety of ways for a variety of reasons. If you care about your data you should client side encrypt it before you send

I think 'The Magus' may be my favourite book of all time. And it's the only Fowles I've read. I did lend it to someone that hated it however ! :) Secret History by Donna Tart also recommended.

This is a fantastic book though I read it 15 years or so ago now. I should re-read it. I also have 'Love in the Time of Cholera' but haven't read it yet. It was the first magical realism book I had and have read. I found the

it's gruesome. I love westerns but in a way this is some kind of anti-western. Captivating however, in the same way 'Heart of Darkness' - Joseph Conrad , is.

I got the audiobook of this recently and have re-started it from chapter 1 a few times after a few chapters. I am really struggling to get into it. I really want to 'get it' as on paper it sounds right up my street. Any advice ? M

I too read this (after putting it off for some time). It could be a bit hard going at times, but definitely worth it. I went out and bought The Road but for some reason or another haven't yet started it (have watched the film though).

Same on DuckDuckGo too. Which is how I found out about the, before-unheard, term. Only saw it being used in Chess articles during the World Championships.
