They botched error handling I think. That happened to me once - turns out my text field was too long. Cut yours down to 140 characters and re-submit it, does that give you the confirmation page?

You probably know, but the people to contact are your ISP to tell them of their DNS poisoning, and also the "rewards" company to complain about their sneaky affiliate. You mentioned that it's not confined to just your ISP - It's possible fo

Who is your ISP? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNS_cache_poisoning has definitely been exploited in the wild. A friend of mine in AWS had to investigate cache poisoning attacks happening on certain ISPs a few years back that were hijackin

The joke being that Assange leaked the announcement before the press conference, if that wasn't clear enough... : )

I think it's really inconclusive what happened, seems like questionable reporting?

Ha, I'm a bit less surprised than you :) Microsoft's crappy products are widely used in the corporate world, and are a massive PITA to migrate away from. For such a huge system like the military's, I'm sure a microsoft salesperson convince

This is really nice, I was thinking of working on something similar for a web-based music player I'm building. Just curious, is your tab data from one source, or a variety of sources? Or is that confidential? :) Keep up the good work

I absolutely love this book - I'm right in the middle, he's trying to answer the question, "Can minds be mapped onto each other?". It's very engaging and fascinating, and I highly recommend it for all sentient beings. Admittedly I haven't

I'm a bit confused about how this article fits in with the previously posted article about the company ( http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1817631 ). There, they are harvesting PII data (e-mail) and re-selling access to related informati

It actually appears to be a real product, as opposed to an elaborate joke. Even after the initial feeling of nausea wore off, I'm still left wondering about what the market for this thing really is. From what I've read (very little), ad cl

Not too surprised either. But one thing I never understood is how a stuck pedal (one that's actually stuck) can lead to a car accelerating out of control. How could it possibly prevent you from taking the car out of gear, rolling to a stop
