The MagSafe design has four fairly large pins. The iPod Dock Connector has about forty tiny ones. It wouldn't work well mechanically.

I don't close programs anymore either, and I'm male. I do close documents to keep Exposé from getting unworkable, but my emacs usually has dozens of buffers open.

Isolation and centralization is useful for the corporation; they have more control over physical security, can manage it so employees tend to interact only with other employees, and it costs a lot less to have space for 12,000 employees off

SQL injection, social engineering a password, somebody's crappy "secret question," insecure PHP, and hundreds of other ways. Closing off known avenues of attack and still mitigating against a leak with peer-reviewed math is what you have to

They've spun up "mega-supernodes," when cascading failures have taken the network down before[1], but they don't need to run them full-time, just when traffic is such that the traditional supernodes can't handle the traffic of a new network

The security model for AJAX is open, well-documented, and peer-reviewed. Safari implements the same-origin policy, various CSRF-mitigation standards, and tends to be updated quickly once exploits are found.

I've used submodules quite often, but in my deployment setup the checked-out/built version ends up stored, since I keep the deployed tree in its own branch[1]. As long as you link to the version you link to, it won't disappear in your local

I've found that many iOS applications implement their own syncing that works quite well (and the OS-level syncing of contacts, calendars, and mail works well). The mere presence of an iPad means I'm more likely to use that than my iPhone, s

While I'm not going to defend this instance ethically, using a computer virus to destroy another country's nuclear capabilities with no loss of life and no obvious blame a year later is pretty impressive. If a "cyber war" means shit breaks

They're more typing than no-semicolons and all you stand to gain is code that's harder to read for a majority of programmers. It's really as close as you get to an objectively-bad thing in a programming language.

When an iPhone 3GS or newer iOS device wipes itself, it clears the key out of a protected memory area that's not accessible to iTunes, so that re-loading the bit-for-bit copy won't work.

Fortunately, those don't actually need to be changed very often (no matter what the Chrome team says). As long as the rendering, JavaScript, and other parts that touch untrusted data stay up to date, you're probably fine with a URL bar that

Somebody should totally engineer a font that does that; if Zapfino can have a special ligature for "Zapfino," you could certainly make ones for '".', '",', and '";'. And yes, I just mixed punctuation styles. Period-in-quotes simply looks be

Breaking car windows with spark plug ceramic is easy and just like piracy, you don't directly bear the costs. Cheap and easy isn't a justification for immoral behavior.

It really is a symptom of the decadence and entitlement of your typical Internet user. If somebody doesn't want you to have a thing they made, why not do without instead of acting against their wishes, taking it illegally, and rationalizing
