As a user of Real Programming Languages (Common Lisp, Java, C) I'm indifferent to scripting languges, but if I had to choose ONE to see in the browser, it would be Lua. It has sane, symmetric minimal design that gets closures. It also look

Our office security system has had the same 4-digit password for years, so much so that the keys for those digits are now worn out. 4! tries.

I don't like unstructured code: disassemblies are goto-filled spaghetti. That's why I use modern Assembly language tools, like comefrom.coffee .

Android is a browser now? Uhh, I run Opera on my Android! Does that mean I've put a browser in a browser, so I can browse while I browse?

This whole tree doesn't understand the contracting business. Hint: it's NOT 40 hours per week. It's not consistent. And there is that little thing called opportunity cost. To be even close to $54k pa you might need to charge ~$100

Linode will send you a confirmation email if you access the admin panel from a "new" IP. This guy must have had his email address compromised as well. Looks like a class spear-attack.

As an American, I found Australian security professionals just that: professionals. What a bliss to work and interact with. The average Aussie street cop has better manners than an American maître d'. I really love this country: far superio
