Misleading title - these are pager intercepts (people still use pagers? Who knew?) Text messages would commonly be referring to SMS for mobile phones.

There is, although via iTunes and it is a little subtle. It may also depend on your country (but Australia and Peru work). 1. In iTunes, go to your account (iTune Stores, then click on top right login name assuming you're logged in). 2. Edi

This is the same kind of person who discovers that people, and rooms, are "available" from 12-1pm, and 6pm- After too many days of back-to-back meetings from 10am to 3pm I've taken to creating a repeating lunchtime meeting with myself. Then

Sequence diagrams existed before UML and for getting stuff done, and being able to maintain it, I prefer http://www.websequencediagrams.com/ I just paste the diagram description into my documents as "hidden text", and everyones happy.

You'll find, for example, the Australian National Privacy Principles forbid hosting Personal data offshore unless you get the permission of that person first. That's a bit unwieldy for most companies. There are other conditions, but letting

It is already there, lurking, in iOS 5(back to 2, friends say) See http://t.co/EkqWISbS for an example, appears as a bug when you try and upgrade an app you've deleted -- but it shows the capability does exist. I agree they won't enable i

Thanks. Such a great word, lost forever :) So if I said "take a punt", would that be to take, or not take? I should build a guide of "words not to use on presentations".

Gah, stop abusing the word punt. The headline is nonsensical. Punt does not mean avoidance. It has much closer associations to "attempt" (punter, plus rugby usage). I totally agree with the rest of the article, why shard or otherwise distri

Sheesh, that's an emotive title. The only end to this noise that I can see is that Apple will supply an update that removes the .epub capability, making the tool specific to iBooks. Will we be any poorer for that? It's like having a machine

Surely MAC address filtering is well and truly proven to be pointless to any serious attempts to, erm, join your network? Spoofing MAC addresses is trivial, even under Windows.

Not really - standard security used by credit cards and calling cards forever. If you punched in a location A and then tried location B which are greater than (time difference * max speed per hour) miles difference then it will red flag it.

You're using Go...but...it's ERLywarn. So how can it possibly be written in anything but Erlang. See ErlyWeb, Erlware, etc. I'm sorry but the name of your product needs to change to Gowarn. I don't make the rules, I just enforce them. (Best

Asia has been doing IPv6 internally for years, out of necessity, and somehow they still manage to see us. Dual-stack isn't the answer when you've got no IPv4 addresses left to assign.
