It would be a big step if those models were under public scrutiny and not a "trade secret" of the for profit company that makes it.

It'd be a pretty easy way to get rid of someone you don't like. If you use tor and public wifi it is pretty unlikely they'll track it to you and you could set them up to get beat up/killed by police by making them look s

Yeah, I for one will never use this if it has a backdoor.

> The solution: Use all of this surveillance tech and data to expose all of the VIPs. Publicly post where they are and where they've been, who they've been with, what they read, and what they buy. You do this and laws will be c

To be fair, i've had a single linode VPS for years (i'd have to check to figure out how many) and this ddos is the first time i've ever had any issues whatsoever with my linode.

Lifting is actually very efficient and having more muscle can help for lots of everyday tasks. I think you are just hanging out with the wrong people if all (or even most) of the people you know who lift are doing it for "girls"

Writing code that is plain, unsurprising, and reproducible not only is, itself, a style but also still leaves a lot of room for creativity/individuality.

I would guess abritishguy was talking about the two git command line bugs they found.

In a lot of families the kitchen is a place where everyone goes throughout the day. It is quite common to have a paper calendar in the kitchen with appts written on it, this allows you to do the same with a google calendar. Of course, shari

To be fair, learning to code also teaches how to break down problems into their most simple pieces which is a very useful skill. I am myself mixed about the benefits of learning to code. I am currently leaning towards it being equal to the

Difficult but not impossible. Client side encryption on such data can fix this, but can be difficult to implement in a good way that is transparent to users. You can even still submit/keep anonymized information about videos viewed. In

To be fair, from what I understand the code was written in such a way that a very large portion of it would have to be rewritten in order for DF to be multi threaded. It's a shame it wasn't designed with multi threading as an idea

To be fair, what I have heard (I am not a Mozilla insider so I can't say personally) is that donations go to the Mozilla Foundation and the commercial agreements give money to Mozilla Corporation. So you aren't donating to the sam

I don't think it is quite as complete, but this looks usable https://github.com/jimivdw/grunt-mutation-testing . That's just from google, no experience with it.

Redhat is also only intended for enterprise use (unlike windows XP). You should be comparing redhat to windows server if you want a valid comparison. In addition, with redhat you get excellent support included (that's what you are real

As someone currently hiring for a mid level popularity language (ruby) I find that we don't have as many applicants as we'd like and that many people who apply have ruby on their resume but have never done an actual project in it.

Obviously this doesn't happen, but they -should- exist solely on donations from both personal and corporate sources that are no-strings-attached. Unfortunately, in the real world they end up doing things like pocket in order to survive

To be fair, I use Debian at work and gentoo on both my personal boxes. So not all of us are on OS X (though my work laptop is a macbook since I didn't get a choice).

Quite frankly, the only reason this is a point of contention is because the author named their talk "Finally a useful Lisp". If they had just said "A new awesome Lisp" or something, they wouldn't be getting so much

This isn't talking about hardware, it is talking about host language. In the case of a host language, any integration beyond the most simple with the host is going to require implementation specific code.

As an anecdote, I still plan on my next car being a TDI VW Golf, assuming they are available in the US by the time I'm looking in a couple years. As another commenter said, I really don't care about "the deals and tricks betw

As usual, the project page doesn't actually explain what the project is nor why I should care. I have to infer a bunch. Start writing a good synopsis on the first page of your projects people.

We don't assume anything. We take calls from customers where they can't figure out how to copy and paste. We take calls where customers don't even know what a browser is, or a web page, or in some extreme cases how to select

First off, I agree with your comment. I think basic income will go a way toward solving the issues you brought up, but that's not why I commented. I'm about to start my own Forever Project where I'm going to write a game(with

What I have heard from similar cases previously is that in a school you basically have no rights. Previous cases the school has been determined to be within their legal rights when doing things like this(including involving the police). I d

Agreed. I use lastpass and don't plan on stopping unless something major (that isn't fixed quickly) comes out.

I'd say mainly that you don't have to wait around for the user to go to the sites you are interested and look for passwords in a long string of keys.
