We're taking a sort of hybrid approach to this on https://threadbase.io , where you can get a subdomain for your community (or custom domain in the future) and put your own ads in (so moderators can make money). Eventually w

This is great! I might end up doing something like `alias todo=vim -o ~/{todo,progress,done}` edit: I was curious so pulled up the man page: changing -o to -O opens the windows horizontally stacked.

Imagine one of those games where you put a nickel in and watch it circle around a slope until it falls into a hole (for charity!). What's happening is the nickel's forward momentum being lost, resulting in succumbing to the gravit

I'm wrapping up my 6th month of using an iPad as my main computer [1] and this is one of my largest remaining annoyances. Working on frontend code is a huge pain, and I often have to resort to hacks like alert()ing to debug problems. W

Beautiful, well documented code. Thanks for sharing.

The signaling server, while unable to decrypt communications, has the inherent ability to record "metadata" about each connection, with to ability to create a peer association graph. Not a deal breaker, but worth mentioning. WebRT

I will concede that the site's infrastructure may be subpar (I really have no knowledge of it), but your statement is highly pretentious.

When people calculate the economics of mining they inevitably forget to take into consideration the future value of the coins they are mining.

More than $800 billion has been requested by the president and appropriated by Congress for the war in Iraq over the last 10 years. It is impressive that for just over 1% of that budget we've measured the age of the universe and its ra

This is obviously an issue. Users are never going to read and verify every line of code that comes over the wire, so in the end it comes down to trust and vigilant sysadmins.

Totally agree. The idea is to provide a centralized place for the crypto work to happen, which while perhaps quixotic is arguably better than 100 developers creating potentially broken cryptosystems independently. We've stayed abreast

We (SpiderOak) have been working on a framework called Crypton[1] for the last few months that allows you to create cryptographically secure web apps. We're trying to get the 0.2 release and new website[2] out this week. I'm curre

As noted, this is a false dichotomy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_dilemma . Human actions are a complex and spectral subject and cannot be binarized. We are completely eating out of the hands of media on this issue

Perhaps a ~17% change is not significant on the scale that we inhabit (20C today depending where you are), but 1000C is a lot of degrees.

You are assuming that a highly evolved lifeform would act like us humans, barely out of the trees socially and spiritually. You may be right. However there are many people I know that wouldn't hurt a bug. Tangentially, #1 would be incredibl

We evaluated several libraries (all JS crypto libraries we could find actually - there aren't many) and CryptoJS suited our needs the best. Specifically, it includes PBKDF2 and CFB mode for AES which SJCL doesn't have right now. We have enc

Hey, I'm one of the developers working on the project. The possibility of "Crypton as a Service" is something we've been thinking about since we started working on this. It's coming soon, but we've been busy getting the fundamentals out - w
