Ransomeware on the NFL or NYT website has been done before?

I was wondering how long this would take. One of the things I've long known as a programmer for the web is that when you let a third party put content on your web site, you don't have control over what they do. Whether it's a

This is really exciting. Link me to more information please?

Can you elaborate? Does the tmux book need more info on copy/paste/clipboard? And what do you mean about handling dividers?

I tried this but experienced random crashes and stuff so I gave up. I plan to look at it when it's a little more along.

The OSX zoom has the option to follow the mouse and is what I use (and require) so I can track what I'm reading. It's not default, but it exists and works incredibly well even under heavy graphics use. Seeing something like that

OSX has an unbeatable ability to zoom the full screen without losing mouse focus. No other OS I've tried supports this. Windows Magnifier comes close but it doesn't let me set focus to follow the mouse and it's awkward. I use

Agree 100%. And I wrote a book on tmux. I would love something like i3 on my Mac. I can't give up OSX because I need its accessibility features because I'm low vision. But if you're on Linux and you're not using i3, gosh

I am not an iOS developer with much experience. I have taken one class and built two very simple apps. So I can't weigh in on how good of an idea this is from an iOS developer standpoint. But I can say from a beginner to iOS standpoint

I think that's part of it. I'm the kind of person you'd find frustrating at first. I don't want to know all the internals of what I'm doing before I dive in. I want a nice API and good docs, and I want to build some

I spend a lot of time worrying about this because I consult on accessibility issues, I an an accessibility advocate, and I am a low vision computer user. Provided that developers use the proper HTML tags and ARIA roles, there shouldn't

ConEmu is good - Cmder makes it a lot easier to set up as it has clink already configured. Still a few inconsistencies, but I've got a nice setup with Cmder, gow, and a few other shell tweaks.

I go one step further - I block all access to Adobe's update servers at the router so it can never get there.

I would very much be surprised. Some personal examples: For years I've worked with Microsoft products. The company I worked for paid big bucks for Microsoft enterprise support. Tried to use many times, always same results. "We&#x2

Just a tip from a person who's interacted with cranky people for a long time.... When I get feedback, especially negative, I like to think about it before I respond. And I may take a month to respond. But I always immediately respond w

About 60 a semester. Number that attempt to get involved is unknown. I require 1st semester students to push final projects to Github public repositories so they learn Git. Biggest problem is that they can't program very well yet but

by bphogan 11y ago
Many 1st semester students want to get involved and can't code yet. And I know they'd jump at this.

And I paid for this Mac. Apple doesn't care about my feedback. :) Just because you pay for something doesn't change the rules. New code has to be supported. And if it's a business, you have to pay people to support that new c

Yes. I agree. Cash would solve this. All the people making money on books about ES6 could kick in. All the folks making screencasts could kick in. All the companies making money on open-source could kick in. And volunteers? They should cycl

I didn't say typical dumb engineers. I said typical engineers. Looking for technical solutions when the problems are not technical. That's pretty typical in my experience. I'm not underestimating the issues they get. I looked

For the same reason that the open-source projects don't say yes to all the feature requests they get... because once you make a new feature, you now own it. It's so easy to ask. So much harder to support it forever and ever afterw

Yup. My students are always asking how they can get involved in open source....

Seems like the issue is... issues. Some projects get so popular that it's a full time job just to respond to issues that lack information. I've been in software for a long time. There's no tool that solves this problem. Peopl

One of my dreams is to actually see how all of that works. I'm not in it for the music - I just really am a music nerd and would love to know how all that stuff is stored, pulled together, and queried.

I've seen my share of open floor plans where everyone has headphones on and is typing in Hipchat / Slack rooms sharing memes.

The alternative is that I need to have 30 versions of Chrome laying around because they update every week or two. Surely there has to be a middle ground. :)

I spent 20 minutes with this the other day and could not get connected to anything on Freenode. The user interface for this is just about as friendly as IRC. Any pointers?

Then you should know how condescending it sounds to have someone say the equivalent of "Well if you were good at your job you could make everyone learn."

I have been nominated for teaching excellence awards by students who didn't want to learn when they entered my classroom. I am considered by many to be a great teacher based on my student evaluations and peer feedback. But it's ti
