Gotta second this, after reading these books you'll have a completely different perspective on how to write code in C++. It's completely different than C.

I think the change to PNaCl (LLVM) is largely responsible for this - after that decision was made and without much in the way of existing apps, there really isn't much incentive for them to invest more effort in the x86 specific version of

Google is already heading there with native client. They're changing the approach to serving up LLVM bytecode on the server, which is translated to x86 or ARM by the browser prior to execution. For future apps that require performance, it

Very common misconception, but it's still a problem. Any client with the network password can capture the initial key negotiation, and then decrypt the client's subsequent traffic. You can enter the network password in Wireshark: http://

You can use a Chrome extension, "Chrome URL Expander", to always see the underlying links. I've always assumed the underlying expansion services never resolve a URL more than once, but don't know for sure.

That's always been possible - you can just enter the network password in Wireshark and watch everybody's traffic on a PSK network. You just have to capture the initial key negotiation traffic for a particular client. WPA(2) largely just ma

There's plenty of alternatives to EarthClassMail which are more reasonably priced; check out a list here: http://unhappyecmcustomer.blogspot.com/2009/09/earth-class-m... I've been using a newer one, http://virtualpostmail.com , which I'

I'm one of those angry former customers. You can yell at PayPal all you want but you won't get that data. Honestly, I think there needs to be some regulation here, since there's just no incentive for the large incumbents to change. From a

It's now becoming so popular that the Department of State is introducing a fee to renounce - $450. See DOS-2010-0035-0001 on regulations.gov.

It's worth nothing that CBP cannot compel you to give them your password(s), and can't really refuse entry to a US citizen, so as long as you encrypt everything your laptop should be secure. They can of course confiscate the machine to ima

I always branch before rebasing. Especially when cleaning up history (merging 5-6 "checkpoint" type commits for a big feature into one, etc.) It makes it easy to get back to where you started and you have the original work for reference p

They actually do have a link specifically for telling the publisher that you would like to see a Kindle edition.

Timing wise, I thought this was inspired by the fake Intel i7-920 CPUs, but they're not even mentioned.

I remember paying $20k for a geocoder not 10 years ago ... how times have changed!

Well, a lot of EU citizens have over the past few weeks. It'll be interesting to see where each browser's market share winds up in a couple months.

Same here - for missing retain/release calls (i.e., stupid memory leaks) it works great.

Wicked, now I can work on adding some encryption to the datastore. Most things on my Touch aren't very sensitive, but the complete copy of my e-mail archive certainly qualifies and having it just sitting there really scares me.

Good to have the option, I know I'd prefer it to distributing and maintaining a known_hosts file to a whole network. That said, I really prefer the idea of using DNSSEC with SSHFP records to CA infrastructure, but that's obviously not as fe

this has been their stated direction for a while now, just wish they'd hurry up and release the updated version of gmail that doesn't require gears..

Given the lack of free or even affordable WiFi in Australia, I'm not surprised that people would leech when given the opportunity. During my travels there last year I found very little that didn't cost $4/hr, outside of a pittance availabl

If you're going to store that info, use gpg (or perhaps gpgme) to encrypt it and keep the private key for decryption somewhere completely separate. Access to the source code shouldn't matter at all.

it's pretty common for vpn providers like witopia or acevpn to provide access via tcp 443 to get through these same firewalls and it's a whole lot simpler, not to mention more cost effective.
