I don't think it's needed anymore. If you read closely you'll see the original linked message is from January and there's an update on that issue from March when a fix was made in V8.

Most likely that Apple don't provide access to the Bluetooth layer; there's also no bluetooth file transfer apps available.

It appears to be implemented using split windows, so the results if you try and use split windows normally are somewhat surprising. (It also doesn't work well with my settings as it shows a statusbar on some of these split windows acting as

There are claims that ARM's "Jazelle RCT"[1] technology could improve JIT (and not limited to Java). Anyone know if that's just marketing or if there could be worthwhile speedups from this on more recent cores? [1]: http://wiki.tiprocessor

Like other comments have said spammers use it as a form of obfuscation. They even chain URL shorteners to obfuscate things even more. I work for an anti-spam company. We see a constant stream of spammy short URLs -- peaking at tens of new u

While this might be true if you try to AXFR large zones I think most people who have large zones have solutions to this, it's just like scaling anything else. For example there's IXFR which is helpful when doing dynamic updates. Alternative

This is the guy in question ;). The code is pretty much a hack which I haven't got around to tidying up (but mail me if you really want it). It's really just glue anyway -- the interesting bits are done by: * http://search.cpan.org/perldoc

For the Akamai thing, compare what certs you get for say www.oracle.com and www.akamai.com (I see the same cert). The CN doesn't match there so that case is a bit different to a third party hosting a valid cert. You probably would want to c

Seems like a neat hack to find a certificate for an entity that doesn't necessarily publish a PGP key. However unless the company's primary website is on SSL how is it going to work? Choosing a random SSL secured site under a domain might l

I was doing really well until my curiosity got the better of me and I viewed the source to see why there was no sound (no flash installed). Although it seems in Safari I can succeed by loading it in a background tab :).

Beware this could have a huge security hole if you are taking method names from the user like that -- they can include a qualifying package name (normally you see SUPER:: used in this context, but it could be anything loaded). In your examp

One key difference which the post doesn't really touch on is that when it's a company everyone's interests are more closely aligned (or at least should be...). On the other hand even if you find where to contribute to with open source you c

Yes, the GPL requires the complete program to be available under the GPL (with explicit exceptions for system libraries). For example this is the case with MySQL, where the client library is licensed under the GPL, therefore any client prog

Jabber/XMPP already has something similar, XEP-0070: http://www.xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0070.html (and there's an openid gateway at http://openid.xmpp.za.net/ ) I think doing this sort of thing over IM makes much more sense than email.

Not YC, but I know of quite a large web application (in the order of a million users, but not that heavy traffic) that makes use of SQLite. I don't think it's the right tool for every job but in this case no data is shared between users. Th
