Yes, it's very popular with JS to make code more modular. Remember that, although JavaScript is a object-oriented language, it isn't a class-based language - it's a prototype-based language. The best way to grasp the idea is

Wow, this is seriously cool! No doubt it will mean more switching back and for between Firebug and Chrome DevTools. Or am I the last one still using Firebug?

bl.spamcannibal.org is notorious for a higher error rate (false positives). It'd be crazy if a popular mail service provider like Yahoo categorized incoming mail based on results from Spam Cannibal. If I added them to my MTA, I'd

Any reason KVM is not included in the analysis? I suppose it'd be also open to this attack?

Why? Because it cannot just die yet! One of my most frequently used Windows app is in Delphi. Total Commander. ;)

Hey, it comes with a cooling fan even! ;) So it has USB 2.0 + 3.0 and eSATA. According to this chart, r/w performance seems quite good (and certainly above USB 2.0): http://core0.staticworld.net/images/article/

Is it just me or does the website have issues with character encoding? I am seeing things like "Bottom Up â€".

My thoughts exactly. Sounds like a PR piece for Metascan. - "downloaded almost 12,000 apps" - I know there are a lot of apps out there, and a lot of crappy ones, but finding 12,000 apps to download from "third party stores&qu

Too bad the SSL VPN concentrator from this article didn't apply a HMAC key that an attacker would have needed to know before he'd even been able to initiate a TLS handshake to probe the Heartbleed vulnerability. You can do this wi

Very true. It's quite a difference if you talk about absolute numbers or about rates of growth.

It looks like there have been already quite a few discussions among Wikipedia editors about this article (it's quite interesting to follow the comments chronologically). The main criticism I see is that the suggested article sounded li

This could have been avoided had more web servers properly implemented OCSP stabling ( http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4366#section-3.6 ). That way it would have been the hoster of the website rather than the issuing CA be

"It looks like you've encountered an error: Origin is not supported. Destination is not supported." Too bad. Seems like non-US locations are not supported yet.

Where did I speak of entitlement? I merely commented on Mr. Avery's ways of dealing with unwanted accounts - those who no longer fit into his business plan. Saying that this stealth move was done to avoid users from gaming his system i

Is that how you think of your customer base? Gaming you? Aren't artificial impressions against the terms anyhow?

Hmmm, I just tried to login to Adzerk using my account that I registered back in March 2013. It doesn't work anymore. I can still enter my username/password, but nothing happens. I can even reset the password. Perhaps it's be

Anything Javascript code from Crockford I highly recommend. Well structured and without "hacks" that could cause confusion.

Groceries is pretty much the last one thing I buy in brick and mortar stores. Please don't take this away from me. ;) The article mentions, "Forrester predicts 10% of U.S. sales will be via e-commerce by 2017" -- I cannot bel

Captchas were meant to keep spammers at bay. Unfortunately, that's no longer the case. Thanks to "cloud technology" like DeathByCaptcha - that is, people in countries where labor is cheap solving captchas all day - spammers h

yeah, I am surprised by that, too. Haven't heard about this one until now... and I have had my fair share with various VPN implementations, from OpenVPN to Strongswan.

Well, TLS-auth should be used _on top_ of a PKI. It is a HMAC key that an attacker would need to know before he'd even be able to initiate a TLS handshake. Thus, if you have used it in your OpenVPN setup, and if you know that the few

To reissue a cert without revoking the previous one is like a half-baked cake. Actually, more like a cake that was never placed in the oven - a complete mess of runny eggs with dry flour and inedible. As long as they don't revoke the c
