There have been a lot of these articles lately...it seems to be fashionable to dislike OO and C++ OO specifically. Not all committee's are bad and not everything they produce are bad. The C++ steering committee is made up of dedicated

It has always seemed like there was a real libertarian streak among silicon valley types, but this kind of historical revisionism sounds very "southern republican" to my ear. The thing is that people fought and died for the, if th

You know, you're right. SSH has about the most sane crypto ui out of everything. That's a really sad state of affairs. I also agree with your point about self signed certificates...you it seems like sites should be able to identif

Isn't this due to treason being interpreted as providing an enemy with information or assistance during a declared war?

Wow, for an alpha release that's pretty impressive. Node seems to be really taking off at MS...parts of Azure are built with it...some really large parts of Azure. It's awesome that they didn't screw with Node either to make

I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything, but saying that software patents are "evil" is hyperbolic. The slave trade is evil. Software patents are a real problem area of our law...but they don't rise to the level of "

That's awesome...I really like windows phone. I have had several Iphone's and used one android phone at work and WP is just hands down better...of course, I don't use as many apps as a lot of other people. I mainly use the we

I think that there are assumptions made by your argument that sound reasonable on the face of it but that don't actually match reality. Not just yours but pretty much every economic argument that I've heard that takes this "f

That's not a bad idea. Take the browser engine and embed it in your app...then never load code that isn't your own. That's not a web app...thats a native client.

That really doesn't change the equation. That's only if you can trust the client code...and it just isn't feasible with JS sent to you from a 3rd party. pgp works because it transfers data and not code.

Verifying the code on your system is something that can be easily done and easily verified the next time you use it. Its your system after all. I salute what you are trying to do, but you have to understand that the Js browser method, as it

That's the point. If you have to "setup the environment correctly" you should implement a native client. GPG is secure because it transfers data...not code. That's actually the webs biggest problem...you can't trust

Its not a personal insult. This system just doesn't provide serious protection from "dragnet surveillance". Distributing keys and allowing the client to encrypt a message to another user ala GPG is a great idea...you just can

I have to disagree. I'm not sure that is the "holy grail"...i think its not even possible with common browser runtimes.

If you just expose your service as an API then you don't have to worry about users trusting code given to them by the site. Then use a native client app that doesn't suck to interact with the service...all of the encryption is don

To be fair Apple takes cheap shots at them all the time. Both companies have a long history of taking pokes at each other. The outrage among their fans is always entertaining, but people should remember that "Apple" and "Micr
