To save you doing the math, that many bitcoins is about $375 million at today's prices - not that the market is deep enough to be able to sell it for anywhere near that price.

I'm not sure I understand this. Are the number helpers now escaping for a HTML context? Isn't it best practice to escape user input just before outputting it (so you know the context) rather than in every helper function? Disclaim

Quick strace command that I use all the time to see what files a process is opening: strace -f <command> 2>&1 | grep ^open Really useful to see what config files something is reading (and the order) or to see what PHP

Is it as clear cut as binaries == license required; source code == no licence required? Is this specific to the codec's patent pool or how patents work in general? What about interpreted languages or bytecode?

I believe with a BSD licence you could pay royalties for the license and keep distributing under the BSD license. The GPL clause doesn't allow you to do this.

Very rough benchmarks running "ab" against a random page on localhost: with AllowOverride 215rps without AllowOverride 245rps It makes a difference, but there's not enough data to conclude much.

Tasked is like an Android version of AutoHotKey. You can even use it to create APKs, which you can distribute in the Play store. I've used it to do loads of things, like unlock my phone based on WiFi, send automatic responses, and log

Apple must need to know who you are as soon as you log in for this to work. Presumably this only works if you have some kind of Apple account. Do Macs call home each time a user logs into a Mac? If so, are Mac users generally aware and OK w
