Yeah, that's not a bad suggestion, I kind of like "operators@", it's a bit shorter than "administrators@". I was also thinking about "staff@", but that's too general purpose.

No, I just wanted something more succinct without being an abbreviation. Also, it's not the descriptive name that I'm thinking about, but more something like the unix group name/mailing alias.

Generally shared email accounts are problematic. Have you guys considered a mailing list or a delegated mailbox?

They used to have another interface for this which was way more powerful, and let you delete all your history for a service at once (ie. delete all of your YouTube search history). This seems like a downgrade designed to make you work harde

Really shittily. >.< We use Passpack -- terrible UX, some debatable security-vs-practicality tradeoffs, no password manager integration, no decent export, but does have a good amount of control and functionality.

Do you have a link to a job posting or an email address by any chance?

If it hasn't been very long, but still long enough for them to get some space and perspective, then I second scott_s' advice. They might feel the same way, and you might come back together stronger than you were before. If it&#x27

I can't speak to El Capitan, but no Apple software has dropped anything in /usr/local that I've found in the last 3+ releases. I'm very confident El Capitan would continue that history. A lot of other apps do put st

I'm curious about your French Foreign Legion comment; can you elaborate?

Google Translate almost holds it together...until the very end... Original: In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of G

I don't know about the Portuguese job market, but in Silicon Valley, I think it would make a difference. (At least at a first glance; you could probably explain it away to an individual -- but the problem would be getting to the point

Surely we didn't take down a site from the _second_ page of HN... :P

JFYI, under operating systems, "Macintosh" should be "OS X". Macs are the hardware, OS X is the operating system that runs on the hardware. :)

Naming stuff. :P Honestly, half the time when I go to name my app, my script, or even an entire damn company, I wind up spending more time thinking about the name than I did building the stupid thing. -___- Some of the names are downright e

I've always enjoyed this sort of Digg-style community site that's run by this weird, famous, early-stage VC firm...the name is escaping me at the moment though... But seriously, if you like Nautilus, I think you'll probably l

If you're talking about a security product -- which TrueCrypt is -- the first metric you have to concern yourself with is: does it keep you secure? The user experience and the adoption and the performance and all that other fun stuff i

I spent all last night searching for an answer to this question. I couldn't find one.

As far as FDE goes, yes. But TrueCrypt was rather unique in that it provided (then) trusted cross-platform encrypted containers, not necessarily encrypted disks. I spent several hours last night trying to find a trustworthy, free tool to en

This is what I do. My passwords live in the same container too.

Except for the whole TrueCrypt-abandonment-and-scary-mysterious-warning debacle. There's a couple up-and-coming replacements though, which hopefully will be usable soon.

Emergency services do not (typically) use Google Maps. They use special navigation services that can plot optimal routes while ignoring certain traffic rules. For example, fire trucks can and will go the wrong way down a one-way street; som

I believe that a (relative) large number of HNers could pull 2M in comp annually. I believe very, very few could do so in a purely-technical, no-management role though...PG included.
