The Touch ID is less secure because you can force a person to put their fingerprint to unlock their own phone. Forcing the passcode out of someone can prove more difficult and the phone will wipe itself after 10 tries (if you have that feat

Much more convienient than a passcode with a little less security. I'd still use it unless I was a CIA agent.

I wasn't a normally anxious person before but 2 distinct traumatic events that happened in the last 2 years has now made me super anxious. The weird thing about anxiety is that it's like both sides of your brain are fighting for c

Amen. I'm a bit tired of people just dismissing Java based on its hipness factor.

I may not be representative of most people but it seems to me like like Facebook usage is going down. I'd say that only 10% of my friends still post stuff on their walls. I would have closed my account a while ago but I can't seem to convin

First you talk about relaxation as a way of life and then you say that 10 minutes a day is all you need? Am I missing something?

Nice in theory but hard to put in practice in the more traditional 9-5 corporate environments.

Just curious how you are so certain that the servers were CSIS servers? Pretty sure you would never be able to trace back a CSIS or CSE ip.

I always wondered what Apple had to gain by being a public company with so much money on hand. Don't you usually issue shares when you lack the capital to fund projects/research etc?

Surprised of the low numbers for PHP and C# and the high numbers for Python.

I can't believe Apple is stooping down to copying the Samsung phablets. I think the galaxy note is the stupidest thing around. Apple should go the iPod nano/Shuffle route with the iPhone. I practically don't use mine anymore now that I have

Yeah, I guess they are just re-interating that a lot of people are still on 3.0.5 and they might want to look at upgrading. Here's the original article: http://www.mindedsecurity.com/fileshare/ExpressionLanguageIn...

Not quite sure Scala is a good language to learn in. Learning curve is higher than other languages.

Not sure that showing them security vulnerabilities in the JVM is going to do much good if they are still in the learning phase.

Tons of people have learned to program with Java. Might not be as elegant as other languages but the fundamentals are the same.

Would be sweet if Apple was developing a quality dumb phone a la iPod Nano or Shuffle. I like my phones small and with the iPad, I don't use my iPhone nearly as much as I used to.

I think you should go with Linode first and when you hit the upper limit, you can move to EC2 or dedicated servers. AWS is somewhat expensive and doesn't deliver the same performance as Linode type hosts. The only advantage to EC2 is the in
