The citypages link on HN is fake news. It misrepresents and mischaracterizes the events reported on the tonywebster link. "Cops figure if they could just find out who in that affluent suburb has Googled that name, they'd narrow th

The police aren't asking for a city's searches. They're asking for anyone, anywhere, who searched Google for 'Douglas ? ?' in a 5 week period. The article this one links to explains this much better. https:/&#

I have no feelings on the subject. I don't use JWT. I just want to point out this sounds like (and continues to sound like) "Roll your own" advice to me.

Sure you could. Pay for a commercial license. Corporations pay for those all the time, and usually don't even get source.

And it's MIT license, or as I think of it, the starving artist license. Why not license under AGPLv3, the way MongoDB does? You want to use it in open source stuff? Free. You want to use it in commercial product? Commercial license is

SSL should prevent that. Sadly, SNI leaks the domain name. Hacker News appears in favor of SNI though, because lack of IPv4 address space. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13639112 Oddly, HN is really worried about serv

Most of the food wasted is "ugly" food. It's not putting farmers out of business. It could keep starving people alive though.

Did you like Flash? I don't think anyone misses it.
