For anyone curious, INTERCAL was originally a joke language which included a COMEFROM instruction that acted like GOTO in reverse: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/COMEFROM Python's "yield from" hands off execution to a sub-generator: http:/

If their domain was hijacked and repointed to rouge nameservers, I would have expected the attackers to redirect mail (MX records) in addition to web traffic. But this article didn't mention anything about email being potentially intercepte

Using the same password everywhere means a hacker only has to break the weakest of any service you use to get at all your accounts. Using oauth or any single-sign-on system allows you to put all your eggs in one (potentially) more trusted b

I visited HP's Houston campus a couple years back. The non-sales folks all seemed rather down and weary. There was a complete lack of energy in the offices then. I can only imagine the mood now.

I had been thinking of something similar... Use WebSockets for pub-sub/broadcast notifications, but keep REST/XHR for all the normal request-reply operations. It seems like they could be very complementary. In your API, does the WebSocket s
