Are you thinking of Typekit, maybe? Typecast is an app for typesetting web fonts, basically. It uses fonts from Google Fonts, Typekit, and I think a couple other webfont providers. It's not in competition with webfont providers at all. Alth

Yes, because a respectable company like Atlassian would risk their entire business to give a small boost to just one of their many products by dealing with black market botnets.

Time will tell, but this is beginning to sound like echos of Ion Storm[1]. We've already got our Deus Ex out of Mojang, though -- my girlfriend and I still regularly play Minecraft together -- so I can't really feel any enmity for them. [1]

It's not uncommon for griefers or cheaters to anonymously brag about their exploits via screenshot. If the screenshot were watermarked, identifying their account and whatnot, then Blizzard could take action against them.

IQ does not equal intelligence, except possibly in the extreme subsets of mental abilities which actually feature on the test. It's not been treated seriously in the scientific community for almost ever. It's almost solely a cargo cult for

According to Matt (and, apparently, his hacker) you're wrong; two-factor would have saved him in this particular instance: "If I had some other account aside from an Apple e-mail address, or had used two-factor authentication for Gmail, eve

While this would normally be a concern, I don't think many people trust Comcast or Time Warner any more than Google.

I don't know as much about Korea, but Japan had plenty of pretty atrocious human rights violations of its own which it also recovered from. Yes, China is different. I'm just saying, "never say never".

Never? Japan and Korea have recovered from very similar reputations very nicely indeed.

As an example, I remember the first time I misguidedly asked him if he used salted hashes for his passwords. He responded (and this was publicly, on Twitter) that yes, he did, but that it was nothing to be proud of, actually, and that he wa

Pinboard has been nothing but a pleasure to use, for me and those I've introduced to it. I have to say that Maciej's joyful, honest, and frequent engagement with his users is a big part of that.

IIRC from earlier blog posts, Maciej built at least a few of his servers by hand. I imagine he got sucked into the "beautiful details" he mentions needing to resist in this one. (I think he's also mentioned he's having them built for him, n

Even with that viewpoint, you could see this site as a positive and necessary thing. There really are girls who are deeply interested in STEM fields, but are discouraged by the apparent lack of female role models. In your view, they are bio

Absolutely. I love and agree with the goal of focusing on the positives, celebrating the actual successes happening today. I think that small part of the slogan actually introduces a negative to the site, if anything. I'm really glad to see

That'd be cool too, but this site is probably trying, at least partially, to encourage women and girls who may aspire to enter a tech field but are discouraged by being unaware of the many admirable women who have succeeded against the odds

I'd prefer a slightly different slogan. I like "We're not endorsing the obvious," but I feel like "We're really not complaining" is a bit insulting to those who really are highlighting the problems with sexism in technology fields. That's v
