There's a good interview with the author on Democracy Now (make sure you watch both parts): http://www.democracynow.org/2015/10/13/the_rise_of_americas_...

Too bad we're stuck with ASN.1 in general, if you ask me. :-)

uBlock 0.9.5.2 is available for Safari. It looks an awful lot like µBlock Origin on Chrome.

Just do it in person. I've seen co-workers laid off via email, SMS, and voicemail, and that all sucks much worse than in person. If you absolutely must, a live phone call is acceptable, but only when there are serious impediments to

TL;DR - Judge rubber stamps DoJ's gag order without any basis. He does this because he is friends with another judge who was the target of someone's First Amendment rant in a forum on Reason.

Oh, come on. You're not really surprised are you? Obama kept all of the questionable Bush appointments even though he could have fired them. Just like he kept the entire national security team and all of the Goldman Sachs mafia that

Actually I think it got Self's JIT, at least that the story that the Self people tell. Squeak and Pharo's Morphic UI also came from Self. http://www.selflanguage.org

Again? I thought we went over this in the 90's. Sigh.

DEC had about 200,000 employees at its peak. HP, of course, bought Compaq who bought DEC, not that there was much left at that point. If you're interested, there's a book by Edgar H Schein and Paul J Kampas entitled, "DEC I

That question is perhaps easy to answer. Look up how much the NSA paid RSA, Inc. to make DUAL_EC_DRBG the BSAFE default…

Awesome! TL;DR - new layout engine and new font. But Amazon has to reprocess its catalog due to the change (i.e., you'll need to re-download everything). iPad version went out this week, but physical Kindles update won't be rea

At some level we're probably just going to disagree. There is ample video of various agencies of the federal government along with local and state law enforcement being used to prevent news organizations from filming the environmental

Yeah, fine. If we had any decency, we'd deploy the Marines to protect the ruins, sort of like we deployed the Coast Guard to protect BP's interests in the Gulf. Not.

In practical terms, you owe it to yourself to go see some of Bernini's best works at the Borghese Gallery in Rome: http://www.galleriaborghese.it . Reservations can be made in advance on their web site.

Harvard is one of the two or three most important institutions in training future members of America's most powerful mafias. Was this a trick question?

So Ghostery phones home. Until someone tells me that it doesn't block what it purports to block, the alternative is worse.

I also don't think this indicates malicious intent. It's as likely that some collection of junior engineers who were tasked with something other than system security, simply invented something that was both insecure and obscure.

FWIW, most chefs recommend using coarse kosher salt and not iodized salt (which as pointed out, has iodine and additives). In Rhulman's "Twenty" he writes, "It's important to use the same brand of salt or your won&

I vaguely remember reading this article before. It's clear our planet is changing, I don't see how anyone can deny that. We can argue all day long about how much CO2 produced since the industrial revolution is affecting it, but
