So only the rich identity thieves will be able to duplicate your identity. The poor thieves with less than $1000 will have to wait for the price to drop.

I think it's been implemented in 1.9 for a long time, but it's not enabled by default. You have to set a #define to configure it, however I don't know why it's not enabled by default. Maybe someone in the "know" can tell us why.

I think we were all just used to seeing even numbers as stable release versions. I don't think there's anything wrong with having odd number production release versions. Also, 1.9 wasn't really an experimental place for Matz, it was initia

Job titles rarely delineate what the job actually entails. When I worked at the 2nd largest hotel chain, they only had 8 guys in market research and about 12 in database marketing. These 20 people determined what hotel customers wanted, w

Yeah, it's strange how only 2 years ago or so, both ruby and javascript scored rock bottom on Alioth Shootout, with javascript scoring 4 times slower than ruby, and ruby 3 times slower than python. Two years later and there's 7 interpreter

I guess that sort of works... but php is still serverside. Anyone doing web dev must learn javascript, but not necessarily php. Javascript would probably be competing with actionscript or any other client-side plugin stuff.

If you really want something that is peace-of-mind, you should just use something like rightscale.com. We have a giant ad server on there load balanced across 40 ec2 instances running perl code, seems to work well so far. Sometimes an ins

Why not just buy a machine and just colo it Softlayer? That way when you do need an additional 8GB, you can pay whatever the current price of 8GB is. These days you can build a 4 to 8 core machine with 16GB ecc memory for around $1500. H

Why not try India instead? The national language is English so it should be of little problem, plus everything there is super cheap. Buy a bicycle for $10 brand new and there's your transportation.

Hey now... I happen to work for a company that was very recently funded, whose founders are not in YC, or best buddies with any VCs, and they didn't have previous exits. There's actually quite a few out there... if you create good value

sorry to say this, but I think their API is great. They are innovating, and innovating requires breaking something. If the devs can't keep up, they shouldn't be creating extensions in the first place. Same could be said of iPhone develop

why even bother logging that? just store it in memory someone. have a counting bloom filter remember the set of IPs that tried to login during the last 10 seconds. If your ip is in that set, delay the user by 10 seconds or so...

Jeez, can this sound more like a marketing pamphlet please? Are you going to address the blogger's concerns, or are you trying to distract us with shiny objects?

raid 1 mirroring is pretty much only used to prevent downtime. So if your hard drive physically screws up, you still have all the boot sectors intact on the other drive so even a restart wouldn't kill you. I only use mirroring on disks wi

the first thing I'll do is download all the movies on piratebay... then they'll have to rethink that strategy. Technically, they can't come after the user because the user doesn't own the file, it isn't on the user's machine, and the user
